PvXwiki:Admin noticeboard

The Admin noticeboard

There are a number of issues that can only be solved by an Administrator. The Admin noticeboard is one of the means through which users can contact Administrators in order to identify a problem that needs Administrative attention. Although editors are welcome to directly contact particular Administrators, posting on this page instead may be an easier way to let the entire Administrative group know of the issue (which may be particularly helpful since it increases the odds that at least one Administrator will see, and thus be able to respond to, the issue promptly).

There are only a limited number of things for which this page should be used. Many problems can be solved without Administrative intervention, and, thus, this page should be restricted to those issues that actually require an Administrator. Those are: blocking vandals, (un)deleting pages, (un)protecting pages, removing votes (either as per Real Vetting or because the build has been substantially edited), and mediation (only if the situation demands it).

Even in cases of vandalism, posting on this page needn't be the first step (and indeed should not be the first step). If you see vandalism, just go ahead and revert it, anyone has the power to do so. If it's a new article with no safe version to revert back to, tag it for deletion. In both cases you should leave a message in the talk page of that user to make him/her aware of why that kind of edit is unacceptable on PvXwiki. Only post here if that user persists in his/her actions, ignoring the warnings or if the content requires immediate Administrative attention (eg. if the material on the page is so offensive that should be immediately deleted).

(Be careful in case that user repeatedly insists on vandalizing, avoid a revert war; it's far better to temporarily leave the vandalized version of the page up until an admin has a chance to intervene.)

To create a new request: add an item to the bottom of the list below, providing a brief, neutral summary of the issue. As a sign of courtesy, also leave a message on the talk page of any other involved users so they are aware of this discussion. If you are alerting an admin of a vandal, use the {{IP}} template, with the first parameter being the vandal's IP or username. If you are requesting that vote(s) be removed, please use the {{Build}} template, with the first parameter being the build's name.

Note that this is not a talk page and that the respective moderators of each section reserve the right to remove non-administrative comments without discussion.

Please place new requests at the bottom of the corresponding issues heading.

This edit to my talk page. Bible crap spam. Juze 12:48, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

User talk:Juze

My talk page. I don't know what's wrong with it but it's getting vandalized a lot. Juze 09:07, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

the only vandalism i saw on the page was when Brandnew decided to C+P the bible onto your page, which was yesterday and dealt with already =/. ~ PheNaxKian talk 11:11, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Lol at Frosty? Juze 15:36, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

that's trolling, not vandalism and he's already been perma-banned, what more is there to do? AthrunFeya 16:44, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Trolling @ Misery. Juze 17:38, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Misery wasn't trolling, he told them all to shut the fuck up, or risk being perma'd as i'm telling you to do now. There's no issues with your page as it stands. Resolved again. ~ PheNaxKian talk 17:54, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Build-Specific Issues

Build-Specific refers to any issue pertaining to the removal of votes, usually resolved by an Administrator. See resolved issues here.

If you wish to dispute another user's vote, it is advised to do so on the build's talk page. This section of the noticeboard is intended to notify Admins of issues that can be speedily resolved (e.g. factually incorrect votes) or issues in need of mediation. Avoid debating builds or votes here.

Note: If applicable, please identify specific votes to improve admin response time.

R/N Physical Mob Toucher (talk · rate)

Probably deserves a vote wipe since the name (and effectively the farm) has changed. -- 20:09, June 21, 2010 (UTC)

The votes were wiped. Karate Jesus 13:29, 27 June 2010

User voted 3-5 without a good reason Tyrael Strikes Back- 12:57, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

User rated it 0-5-1 without reason. Juze 15:37, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

3-5 vote removed. Juze, I'm not entirely sure which vote you're talking about. Karate Jesus 13:27, 27 June 2010

It's a shame how bad armond is in today's game. Life Guardian 01:49, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Vote removed. ToraenTheJanitor 02:13, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

2 Votes suffer from bad reasoning, you cant prot an aoe spike -.- Tyrael Strikes Back- 09:43, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

On 1 to 2 targets you can. Vincent Evan [Air Henchman] 00:09, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

get a new caller--Oskar 00:23, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

I removed Unreal's vote due to his reasoning. The rest are valid. Karate Jesus 15:28, 30 June 2010

A/Rt Remedy Caster Sin (talk · rate)}

Timmy has a double vote--Oskar 23:33, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I removed the double vote and a couple of the votes with poor reasoning. Karate Jesus 15:30, 30 June 2010

Team - AB Balanced (talk · rate)

Armond obvisouly has no idea what he is talking about. His vote and unreal's vote should either be revotted or removed. (I'll make a full description when I'm done in tombs. Vincent Evan [Air Henchman] 00:44, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

^ not 5-5-x'ing balanced is dumb--Oskar 00:56, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

Armond's vote provides reasoning, and is within policy, so I let it stand. If you want him to change it, leave him a message on his talk page. However, I went through and wiped a bunch of the policy-violating votes. There were quite a few. Karate Jesus 15:35, 30 June 2010

Armond's reasoning is essentially 'AB isn't true pvp'. Should we go downvote every non gvg and ha build because it isn't high level pvp? Unreal's reasoning is wrong too, balance can't handle other humans lolwut? Cake Archer 22:25, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

Actually unreals vote is wrong because hes saying a nuker and ES cant blow up teams when it doesnt even have ES in the team anymore =/--Oskar 22:35, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

Unreal's vote removed. I agree with KJ on Armond's, so go take it to his talk. Resolved. ToraenTheJanitor 22:44, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

A/W ShoveSin (talk · rate)

The reasoning on MrMetalFLower's vote is completely retarded and faulty. he fails to understand the concept of a knockdown or a spike completely. 15:45, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
