Intro: Yes, it HAS been a long time. And quite a bit has happened. Well, not really. I'm only going to blog the stuff I remember, and we'll see how it goes.
I suppose I'll have to start with my 4 tags...whew...wow this is a tough job. Well it's not really, some people just make it harder than it needs to be. I'll detail/summarise what's going on in each wiki.
Boktai: Plagiarism Jak and Daxter: Clean up Pokemon: Large scale clean up Warhammer: Jack shit
I've been involved in some other projects, too, such as Doctor Who, Harry Potter (to an extent), Animal Crossing, WoW, so on so forth...most of them with my good friend Shayn (aka Lykerok).
Boktai: Ok, first I'll tell you about Boktai. Seems everything's calmed down here; you'll remember last time I was talking about LordHuffnPuff and the Boktai Wikia. Well after having a civilised chat, we decided just to leave each other alone since we're better off as separate communities. So this would be fine; if not for our former staff Pokeman Master. Turns out that, while comparing some Boktai pages to Wikipedia...they were exactly the same. Confronting him about this he admitted it. Then he admitted it in public. Then he said he'd fix it. Then admitted it in public again. And again. And didn't do anything about it. Then admitted it again. After confronting him again, he just said he was lazy but everything was ok and just left me to it. Then admitted it again in public.
Not happy about that, as you can tell...so activity is slow there...
No word about Lunar Knights 2, even at E3...Kojima you bastard...
Jak and Daxter: Jak and Daxter is currently in a project known as Operation: Clean Up Wiki. Simple? Yeah. Since creation it's fruited pretty well. I'm co-staffing with Karis atm and I think it's going well...nothing much to say here really, it's shaping to be really good I think.
OMFG THE LOST FRONTIER IS CONFIRMED.
I'm really excited, especially since it's coming for PS2. Despite everything people have said about High Impact Games, it's gonna suck, it won't be a J&D game, blah blah blah; NOBODY can *bleep* with J&D and it can't be ruined. There's just no way. I'm really excited.
Warhammer: Warhammer is going slow too...literally. Not much to comment on really. In relation to the games I recently picked up Squad Command but haven't played it properly yet. I found out recently that one Warhammer game I missed is called Glory In Death; and it's for the N-Gage.
I HAD AN N-GAGE FOR 6 YEARS.
God I was pissed...that was a frustrating time for me. I suppose there's no way that page will be created now, but what the hell; probably not a huge loss. Just another Ultramine story I've heard.
WARHAMMER 40k SPACE MARINE IS CONFIRMED.
It looks absolutely amazing. Again I really don't like the Ultramines much (Space Wolves, Souldrinkers and Blood Ravens ftw) but for this game, I will definitely make an exception. It looks incredible. Definitely on my To Buy list.
Pokemon: Jesus christ. I don't get paid enough for this job.
I'll start from the start...Benedict had plans to revive the cause. I agreed to help and we called it the clean up. Origin and ShinyMilotic, 2 of the 3 staff at the time, agreed to help. Nightwing still appeared to be MIA. So we started the clean up and Benedict tried to be his dick end self and take control. Shortly after Origin demoted. Benedict disapproved of my Main Page design and tried his best to prevent me from doing so. So you can imagine his shock when I applied for a temp staff position, more so when I got it, and even more so when I announced that it may be permanent. I'd finished the Main Page, ran it through ShinyMilotic, Benedict disapproved, and I implemented it. Benedict tried to edit it, but the Main Page was locked. He continuously objected to this and demanded that it be unlocked. After giving him a hint that he couldn't change the headers through the main page, he tried editting the heading template only to find out that I'd locked it. Then he tried to edit the less important heading templates. He did, they looked crap, we reverted them. I locked them all and he gets into a bitch fit.
From here on it gets worse. Benedict continuously trying to take control, continuously defying my decisions, and just being a dick in general. The clean up continued slowly, but it continued. After ShinyMilotic got inactive for a while I called him out; same with Nightwing, who hadn't taken part in half a year. They simultaneously demoted; after Benedict persisting to be a *bleep*, I decided, *bleep* it, I'll demote aswell. All seemed lost...
Avalith and tekmosis stepped in to settle Benedict. Avalith convinced me to stay on as staff. He then told me that he and Origin had also re-promoted, and that we'd tackle this wiki and restore it to its former glory.
Benedict? He was an even bigger dick and got himself blocked.
HeartGold and SoulSilver have been announced, and if you haven't heard this you're probably living under your own shit. Can't wait. Really can't. :D
Main Page vR.AN: This is a free service to upgrade your wiki Main Pages. Take a look at J&D, Boktai, Warhammer, Doctor Who, Pokemon, Harry Potter and Pikmin to see examples of what it will look like; if you like it, drop me a PM and I'll get round to it.
Music: Recently teamed up with an old friend of mine to start a songwriting project. We might bring my bassist (our friend) into the equation, and we might recruit more to become a full band; for now though, it's just a little project between the two of us since I can only do so much by myself.
Dannie: Is lovely. :)
Closing thought: 17 years old. 17 years old. And I STILL can't click my fingers.
For you guys: Pokeman Master actually brought this to my attention; comment as you please, but also tell me what you think of Quierta. Why does everybody kiss her ass? I already know, but I'd like your opinions.
I don't get a mention!? I can has clicky fingerzz! =D
I always thought her name was pronounced Queer-Ter, turns out I was wrong. Oh well. Take A GOOD LOOK around the Doctor Who wiki guys, alot of new features have been added such as v.R.AN or whatever the *bleep* it's called, and the launch of our Tochwood page and theory page (11th incarnation), needs more discussing. *goes and makes a blog about it*
You're doing a great job on the Pogeyman wiki and Jak and Daxter, Keep it up! *insert cheest motivator here*
"She's Dannie says (20:14): So you can program and entire wiki page, but you can't click ?"
Haha, you do so much work on the wiki's, and I'm sorry you can't tell me about everything because I don't get it xD You've worked so hard to get those four tags, and I know the trouble's you've had. So really well done.
Boktai: Ok, first I'll tell you about Boktai. Seems everything's calmed down here; you'll remember last time I was talking about LordHuffnPuff and the Boktai Wikia. Well after having a civilised chat, we decided just to leave each other alone since we're better off as separate communities. So this would be fine; if not for our former staff Pokeman Master.

Did it for the following reasons; 1-Thought I could get away with it. (after I got the tag I eased down a bit and "tried" to write it in my own words. You even remember that megaman page I did. But it sucked ass). <.< 2-I used to suck ass at sentence structure. (I don't now. Thanks to Rome)
That's why I told you I'd get to it. But apparently anything I do on the wiki is deleted by you.

How cute, Mcilrath is following me everywhere I comment. Pretty sad. And Boo, since when did you change your name and become moderator? Haha I thought you quit neo months ago.
Clicking fingers is overrated anyway, it's never achieved much for me in life. Anyway I have plenty of exams coming round, but send me a PM some time since we did start talking as losing contact hasn't done either of us good. When I do get time, I will definitely get some stuff done for Warhammer like we originally planned. Just sucks for the next couple of months I'm more or less dead.
And yes, please take a look at the Wikis.

And in *other* news, 34 ?
Ahaha, well done babe. I love you

A mention, win.
You can't click your fingers? That's...Odd.
And also, Quierta is a really sweet girl and great to look up to for inspiration as a new mod. That's why everyone likes her.
Plus she gots the power.
BLOODY MURDER! EVERYONE COME QUICK IT'S BLOODY MURDER!
I need to find a way to abuse you, in this blog. I just can't though.
Stop calling me dick and insulting me at every turn.
Ben stop being... Benedict.
Stop flaming me in every *bleep*ing corner everywere. You need to control your launguage.
