User talk:Claptrap

Welcome
Hi, welcome to Borderlands Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Talk:Claptrap page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- LobStoR (Talk) 01:24, January 8, 2010

Thanks!
thanks for the clean up on the build page man I really appreciate it--WhiteOnmyoji 21:26, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'm gradually going through every build page and spellchecking all of them and stuff. -- Claptrap 21:27, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

ty! 01:21, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'm probably going to apply for sysop as well, but after you and Fenrakk's requests are granted by LobStoR. Three at a time could be...confusing. -- 01:24, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Test
Just a test... -- C l a p t r a p 14:34, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

you can shorten the footprint of your sig you know? you got your sig page, do you have a follow along?


 * A follow along? Is that the thing you have that looks sort of like a template? -- C l a p t r a p Claptrap_icon.jpg 01:06, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

goto my user page (click the chemical weapons icon) and email me with your messenger id and ill walk you through it. look for email this user


 * You mean like instant messenger? -- <font color="#E8A317" size="2px">C <font color="#D29D26" size="2px">l <font color="#BB9734" size="2px">a <font color="#A59143" size="2px">p <font color="#8F8A52" size="2px">t <font color="#798461" size="2px">r <font color="#627E6F" size="2px">a <font color="#4C787E" size="2px">p Claptrap_icon.jpg 01:17, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

Moxis Underdome Riot
Is that DLC good? I want to know, because i've heard it's shit. I don't belive it...SKAG_"BADMUTHA"_HUNTER 19:38, January 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * I find it to be pretty good. It gives you an extra challenge in the game - so that, after reaching level 50, you don't just have to do stuff like PvP or whatever. It's pretty much always a good challenge, and it can be fun. Especially if you play with some friends. -- <font color="#E8A317" size="2px">C <font color="#D29D26" size="2px">l <font color="#BB9734" size="2px">a <font color="#A59143" size="2px">p <font color="#8F8A52" size="2px">t <font color="#798461" size="2px">r <font color="#627E6F" size="2px">a <font color="#4C787E" size="2px">p Claptrap_icon.jpg 20:00, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

as a courtesy
For those of us who are new to games, gaming systems, FPS, RPS, etc., I think someone should look into creating a page with a list of abbreviations and their definitions, like proc, stack, RB, shotty, etc. Ty.

Jongtony110 01:50, February 2, 2010 (UTC)what am i supposed to do for a signature????

I'll try to make a page describing the words for people new to gaming systems, I just need to know which words/abbreviations you need to be defined and where the page should be put--UNCxTrinity 05:04, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Test #2
Test... -- 05:05, February 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * Awesome, it doesn't take up half a page in the source now. Thanks Dr. F! -- 05:06, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

no problemo. dont forget to add category profile pictures to your icon. it should stop showing up on new posts tomorrow.

Bordalans
You play Borderlands on PS3? The Flying Fenrakk 17:18, February 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, indeed I do. -- 17:27, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Dang, I play PC :/ The Flying Fenrakk 17:30, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Two things
1. Ok, my bad on the prefix thing, sorry about that. Is there any chance that a prefix/suffix page could be made? I would really like to know what some of them mean. (I used to not know what "Liquid" meant until yesterday and it drove me crazy, so a list would be nice.)

2. Your signature is awesome, how can I make mine do that or something similar? (Where it shows "Claptrap" in a gradient, and each letter is a link)--wadjet2 03:53, February 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * There is a prefix page, found here. Suffixes are on the weapons' pages, so shotgun suffixes are on the Shotguns page, and so on. To create a signature, I recommend starting here. It was quite helpful to me. -- 04:00, February 8, 2010 (UTC)

hello do you have some weapons that does over 1500 DMG and do you want to play borderlands online with me


 * Sure, I'd be up for playing online. My PSN is Shnuke. -- 17:11, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Sig
How did you get your sig on a separate page? The Flying Fenrakk 17:54, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, just make a subpage of your user page. For instance, User:Fenrakk101/sig. Create the page, and make your signature there. Then make a page called, for instance, User:Fenrakk101/sig preferences that only has as its content. After that, go to Special:Preferences and set something like this:  in the box marked "Signature". You may already know some or all of this, but I figured I'd just put it out there anyways. --  18:03, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

I followed your steps exactly. But it comes out freaky. &#123;&#123;:User:Fenrakk101/sig}} 18:47, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hm. Perhaps try in the Signature box, and be sure to check the box labeled "Custom Signature". --  18:49, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind, I got it. I had to check the Custom Signature box. The Flying Fenrakk! 18:50, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hold up, it's not coming out as code in the –  tags like yours. The Flying Fenrakk! 18:52, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * To reduce its footprint (amount of code) in Source view, put ++SUBST::User:Fenrakk101/sig_preferences++, with the +s replaced with {s and }s, in the Signature box. -- 18:54, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's what it reads in Special:Preferences, but it still has a huge footprint. The Flying Fenrakk! 18:57, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I made a small edit to the sig preferences page. Does it work now? -- 19:11, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Nope. I also removed the extra colon in my Preferences and it still doesn't work. The Flying Fenrakk! 19:12, February 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's quite puzzling. Perhaps you should check Dr. F and Doctorgray's contribution history on the User namespace - that's what Dr. F recommended I do when I was stuck, and it helped me out somehow. Sorry, but that's about all I can do. -- 19:19, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright, thanks for trying.. The Flying Fenrakk! 19:23, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * I got it to work; there was an extra colon at the end for some reason (In my Preferences). Thanks for the help. 19:30, February 17, 2010 (UTC)

Ned Claptrap
I had forgot about it when I got into Jakobs cove. I pressed F8 to Screenshot with Fraps, and got exactly on the fire shot. I was happy :p.
 * Yeah, it's quite the shot - right after the revolver is fired, but before the bullet has hit Ned's Claptrap. Thanks again! -- 02:45, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Undead Category
What about Category:Zombies? 03:20, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just noticed that, removing it from the two pages I added it to and the pages that already had it. -- 03:21, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed you deleting them after I posted the comment, lol 03:23, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Sig
Tell me what ya think. 03:55, February 18, 2010 (UTC)




 * That looks excellent! I tried to do something like it in GIMP, but it turned into a gigantic mess. I appreciate this immensely. -- 03:57, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem, I had fun doing it. 03:58, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * By the way, do you want me to split it into sections so you can link each part to your User Page, Talk Page, etc. like your current sig? 04:00, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nah, I've got it covered. Thanks anyways! -- 04:02, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright. And welcome. 04:03, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Borderlands Guide
You have it, right? If so, can you confirm the citations in the Widowmaker and Helob articles? 16:25, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, they're in there. Do you mean to add a citation at the bottom of the page for it? If so, I'm not entirely sure how to do that (as it wouldn't be a link - it's a book). -- 16:28, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * No, I mean, the statements requiring citation. If they're in the guide, remove the citation tags. 16:29, February 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, will do. I'll see if any other things from the guide have the tags as well. -- 16:30, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Category:Statements_Needing_Citations will have them. 16:32, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Sig
I like your new sig. Who made it for you? 01:22, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I did. I'll probably switch back/make ones for other manufacturers later, but this was partly me testing to see if I could make anything in GIMP. The text I did in Microsoft Word, and it took me about a half an hour to replace "TORGUE" in the logo with it. -- 01:25, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. I assumed someone made it for you because you told me you couldn't make a good image. Also, this one is harder to read; because of the addition of the Torgue outline, the image has to be smaller to be worthwhile, and it's just a hassle. 01:31, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, when I tried making a Tediore one, I failed, and you had already offered...sorry if this makes it feel like I lied to you. And yeah, it does have to be smaller, which is a bit annoying. Perhaps I'll change it, but at the moment I'm happy that it sort of worked. -- 01:35, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Nah, it's alright, just pointing it out so you don't feel like I feel offended that you swapped mine out. Funny how life works, lol. 01:39, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * which manufacturer makes claptraps? that would be the one to use. if its hyperion (and i believe it is) fen or i or someone can mock up a hyperion font for you. although i rather like the previous one with the bar atop. 01:38, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've been meaning to find that out, so I could make it my favorite manufacturer as well. I originally guessed Dahl (they make the repair kits), but Hyperion sounds more plausible (Angel's satellite looks like a Claptrap). -- 01:45, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hyperion definitely makes Claptraps, but we cannot assume they are the only company that makes claptraps. For all we know, every company manufactures claptraps. But for now, I'll try making Clatrap sigs in every manufacturer's font, to give you some options 01:48, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Tried making one in Hyperion's font, but...dear lord, it came out worse than my attempt at a Tediore one. It's completely illegible, lol. -- 01:53, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * The Hyperion logo looks easy enough. But I'm supposed to be doing homework now, so don't expect my attempt till tomarrow. Also, I'll have them linked to my Photobucket account, so I don't take up more wiki space lol 01:56, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I appreciate it immensely. -- 02:00, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem, I love helping out. 02:02, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Time
What time is it where you are? I swear you're in the same timezone as me. 15:53, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * At time of writing, it's 10:56 AM. -- 15:56, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, we're in the same timezone. Go East coast! 16:01, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * I had suspected as much as well. East Coast ftw. -- 16:05, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Sig
I'd recommend having LobStoR delete your sig image so you can reupload it with a copyright notice. That way, the issue won't happen again. 18:16, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I can add in a copyright. I'll do that now. 18:20, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I was trying to do that, but I couldn't find the template for "uploaded by photographer or author". -- 18:22, February 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's "Self". And no problem. It kinda ticks me off when people use your work, especially if they don't give you credit. 18:23, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Skag
I assume Skag is one of those words where the plural is the same as singular? i.e. you would say Rakk, not Rakks. In-game characters aren't known to say Skags either, as far as I know. 02:36, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's the case with Rakk, but not with Skags. See: Skags At The Gate. -- 02:38, February 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's true, but other than there, characters say skags, in plural as skag. Like when T. K. says "Hope the skag don't get ya." 02:39, February 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think it's just inconsistent. You know, how the one townsperson says "We lost Jess to the Rakks". But more widespread. For instance, Marcus saying "Leave this robot for the skags", T.K. calling them "damned skags", etc. etc. I'd guess "skags" to be correct, but perhaps there are other ways people say it. -- 02:44, February 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I woulda gone with Skag. We should probably note that inconsistency in the Trivia section of the Skag article. I'll do that now. 02:46, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

System Admin
Have you been made/nominated a system admin yet? <font color="silver" size="2px">Steel <font color="green" size="2px">_  <font color="orange" size="2px">Crab  15:57, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm planning on applying for adminship, but I think I'll wait until Dr. F's RfA is done/almost done, since it would be a bit confusing otherwise. -- 16:22, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Badass
Do you think we should merge the Badass, BadMutha and Superbad pages all into one? The strategies are basically the same. 18:35, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'd say so. They're basically the same thing - we don't have separate pages for Psychos, Maniacs, and Lunatics, do we? -- 18:58, February 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright, off to merging. 19:00, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Sig
I know I promised you I'd make sigs for all the corporations, but I might not be able to deliver them for a bit. All I have done right now is the Atlas version, the others will take a while longer to complete. 19:28, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Atlas sig: here (Looks better when shrunk)
 * You don't have to make them, and if you do you can take as long as you want. I'm fine with anything, really. -- 19:46, February 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * True. The only one I'm disappointing right now is myself, lol 20:00, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
