Hi. Just a reminder; please do not link to disambig pages. I noticed recently you have linked to 'sage', 'Maku Tree', etc. Those are disambigs, so please be careful to find the correct page you wish to link to in the future. Thank you!
Hey there Sir Real, like your username kinda funny. Now, I'm sorry if this is going to trouble you but you have to much profanity on your user page. While I myself don't have any problem with it, Zeldapedia is open to users of all ages and we don't want anything that will upset anybody. So would you please either censor the words, or remove them? Thanks.-- C2 / CC 01:34, December 15, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah. I had to censor the words on your page, and I know you have been on inbetween these two messages. You can't just shrug things off like that around here, not you nor I nor anyone else can simply shrug off an admin's message. There would be no order. -- C2 / CC 00:35, December 18, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I haven't been checking my talk page. I'll try not to put in any more disambigs or profanity.
No harm done. I just get a little mad when I feel like I get stiffed on an important issue. Just check your talk page more often and things like this shouldn't happen. :)-- C2 / CC 01:59, December 18, 2009 (UTC)

The thing you were just saying with the Bokoblin telescopes that have blades and turn into machetes sounds off to me. I think it may be a glitch that causes the Bokoblin to wield both items at the same time. I believe they then drop a machete only because telescopes are not a droppable weapon, and simply vanish along with the Bokoblin. This may happen if a free machete is near a telescope wielding Bokoblin; if said Bokoblin is programed the same as if it had no weapon (makes sense as the telescope is not a separate object that can be dropped), it may pick up the machete like a normal Bokoblin, and as the two intermingle they appear to be a bladed telescope. That's what I think anyway. Can you elaborate on the circumstances you saw this in?--FierceDeku 23:12, February 11, 2011 (UTC)
Sir Real– If you're looking for Sarah Palin's book, it is a b***h to find, lemme tell ya. I found it somewhere between fiction and non-fiction in the fantasy aisle. TALK– www.whookos.com
When I was on the Great Sea, I would often encounter purple Bokoblins who carried telescopes. After they noticed me, they would attack. I noticed that machete blades came out of their telescopes. When they were defeated, the telescopes would turn into machetes.
Did it look like in this video? If so that would line up perfectly with the glitch I was proposing earlier. Thing is I never remember anything like that happening, and I just went back and looked and there were no blades or machete or anything. While bladed telescopes could happen, telescopes transforming into machetes doesn't make sense, so I really think this is a glitch. Also, I've never known a telescope wielding Bokoblin to attack with the telescope, they only use jump kicks. What version of the game are you using, and have you noticed any other weird happenings? I'm copying this section to the Telescope talk page so we can get other people's feedback on this too.--FierceDeku 00:29, February 14, 2011 (UTC)
Sir Real– I was frozen today! TALK– www.whookos.com
Yes, the thing in the video is exactly what I was referring to. I'm using the original Gamecube version of the game, and no, I have not seen anything else out of the ordinary. Was there any other version?
While your adding all those sticker sections could flesh them out by explaining what they power up and what characters can use them. If you don't have that kind of info on hand could you give them the sub tag because they look kind of bare as they are now. OniDark Link 23:08, February 24, 2011 (UTC)

Funny you should mention that...I was just asking about that here.
The Midna– You can use an algorithm to solve a logarithm, but you can't use a logarithm to solve an algorithm. TALK– {{{time}}}
When you're making the sticker sections one pages, make sure to write it as "Sheik's sticker gives a +17 bonus to spinning attacks and can be applied only to Link, Toon Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf." instead of "Sheik's sticker gives a +17 bonus to spinning attacks, and can only be applied to Link, Toon Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf." If it's hard to notice the difference, make sure to place "only" in the right position and to leave out the unnecessary comma.
You're word bubble text is nearly impossible to read. It seems to already have been discussed here. It's really hard to read something that looks like this is to read?. The font and the color are impossible to read. I don't know if it's just my computer, or not, but this is what it looks like on mine http://www.shoutwiki.com/w/images/images/6/63/Talk_Template.png
If it looks like that on other's computers, to the point it's unreadable and they have to highlight the text or go into edit mode to read it, it's probably a problem, and if it is, I doubt I'll be the only one who would appreciate a text change. There is a list of supported fonts here.
I'm really sorry if this came off as rude, but I'm not a fan of having to highlight the text just to read it. Thanks. --BassJapas 03:12, February 27, 2011 (UTC)
Sir Real– Are you my mummy? Please let me in, mummy. I'm scared of the bombs. TALK– www.whookos.com
Nah, didn't come across as rude. The text is easy to see on my computer screen, but it does seem a bit harder to see when I'm using someone else's computer, so I see where you're coming from. I'll try to find a better color. I hope what I'm using right now is easier to see.
If you saw the recent edits you probably already know this, but Oni noticed the SSBB sticker info you've been adding links to "Zelda", which is actually a disambig page (the character is on the "Princess Zelda" page). We've gone through and fixed everything that links to "Zelda", and I think you were actually done with the sticker info anyway, but just letting you know for future reference/wouldn't hurt for other people to see this fact while browsing the recent edits.--FierceDeku 16:47, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
While this topic is up I'd like to inquire what the standard is for linking to Zelda. Should we have it as [[Princess Zelda]] or [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]]? I've been doing [[Princess Zelda]] due to that being her full title but in this case it might be better to show it as [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] since thats her official name in smash bros. OniDark Link 19:05, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
I agree with using just plain Zelda since that's what she's usually called in Smash. Other non-smash instances would just be subject to whatever fits the context best. And by the way, I now and forever declare Sir Real's talk page to be the official forum for such discussions, as that is obviously better than talking about things on those antiquated... well, forums... :p --FierceDeku 21:38, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I'll make sure to use the right links and to check for disambigs in the future.

I personally use Adobe Photoshop Elements 8the wikipedia article, download page. But there's also Adobe Photoshop, download page, which I don't use, since I do not have it. And Adobe Fireworks, download page. I've used all three. Photoshop in school, but it was a kind of old version. I personally like Adobe Photoshop Elements the best, since I'm really used to it. I got it when I got my computer, because my old one had crashed. Adobe Fireworks also allows animation, so that's pretty cool. I've found trouble with Fireworks in removing backgrounds and cropping images, so I try to avoid using it, but it's what my school has, so when I'm at school I use it. All of those have demos, and they aren't very long. And buying them is expensive (that's why my mom got it when my computer crashed).
What I would recommend is, GIMPdownload page. It is very similar to photoshop, but isn't the same. It's only lacking some features. But it's free, which makes it better than photoshop in that case. Or Paint.NETdownload area. I haven't tested it out, but it is free.
In all cases, I would use the Magic Wand Tool, or the Quick Selection Tool. I know Photoshop Elements has it, not sure about the others.
I checked the pages out. And you have to have an account to download the Adobe stuff. But they are easily creatable. Best bet is to go with GIMP. But if you do go with GIMP, I won't be much help to you, since I've never really used it. I'd be more help if you got Photoshop Elements. But do as you will. Also, if you download Elements, and need help, I'd recommend getting Team Viewer so I could help.

You're running for Rollback without your knowing of it? Good for you! (If you don't want to run right now, feel free to remove it and put it back when you feel ready; but I feel like you're ready now)
Sir Real– I don't punch people in the face. I punch them in the sanity. TALK– www.whookos.com
Thanks for requesting me! I was originally going to wait to apply for rollback rights for reasons I explained on the requests page, but if people think I'm ready, I guess I am!
Congrats on receiving your rollback rights. Feel free to add the {{Rollback}} and {{User Rollback}} templates to your userpage. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 15:47, March 20, 2011 (UTC)
Congratulations on rollback! Don't really got anything creative to say, so I'll just say the first random word that comes to my head, which is "peanuts". And yes, it did have to be the plural version.

Congratulations! You saw that thing I said about rollback hiding things from recent edits, right (I'm feeling paranoid today)? May vandalism fall swiftly before your mighty rollback button.--FierceDeku 19:08, March 20, 2011 (UTC)

Congratulations. You have successfully been initiated into the secret society responsible for monitoring the edits of the masses. With us moving the wiki toward a set standard of quality, who can say whether they can control their own destinies? (Actually, they can--they conform, or the admins block them.)

Sir Real– LOOK AT ME I'M A TARGET! TALK– www.whookos.com
It's a nice word bubble, but you don't have to type up every detail whenever you use it. You can just type it in at Template:Sander123. Also, you don't have to link to your userpage or talk page. It automatically links to them for you.
A Message of Congrats and Help Related Things Edit
First off, congratulations on earning rollback, you've worked hard at what you've been doing and do deserve it.
As for the IRC, go to this website and enter a nick. I think that you know what it's all about and stuff (only briefly read the Zeldapedia IRC forum). Just enter a nick, preferably Sir_Real as it doesn't allow spaces. Uh, any further question, just /msg Jazzi while in the IRC, and I'll help you further.
Hi Sir Real, I was wondering if you could vote in the Monobook Theme forum? We have ten straight supports so far, but since you are a heavily active contributor on this site, it'd be greatly appreciated if you could voice your opinion too. We just want to make sure that all of our heavily active users have voted and voiced their opinions so that it's not a shock when the skin changes and they weren't ready and don't like it. Thank you. --BassJapas 21:20, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
Just dropping by, wandering around. I don't usually edit here, but as your IRL friend, I'd suggest you look at the theories for your favorite dungeon. Some sound like fan-fic material. --Nixeu (talk) 00:58, October 24, 2011 (UTC)
Edit: Also, look at the theories on the boss of the game that dungeon was in...I was shocked by one, it's pretty baseless.
I've run into some hard times at my old wiki. It's been moved out of wikia, and, long story short, I've kinda decided to contribute elsewhere, namely here. I'm probably gonna stick to what I do best: fixing spelling and grammar. --Nixeu (talk) 01:23, November 10, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. I was starting to get a bit frustrated. By the way, where's your word bubble? I thought you were trying to bring word bubbles back.
Categorize them. You shouldn't have to be told this. You have rollback rights. You're a trusted member of this community. You should know you have to categorize images. – Jazzi (talk) 02:33, August 29, 2012 (UTC)
The figurine description calls them bolts, and that description just happens to be the quote at the top of the page. Anyways, it looks a little odd when the quote says one thing and the article says another. GreenRupee 23:25, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

Figured putting this on the wiki will get the point across better. Edit
Hi, I know I've mentioned this quite a few times in Skype, but I'm going to ask that you stop doing the entire Temple of Courage formatting. I asked for introductions not the entire formatting to be done. If you want to do the entire formatting case, you're going to have to learn how to archive the Temple of Courage, the Suggestions page, the Former Matches, and manage the Template. I asked you to do the introductions. I'm going to ask that you do the introductions and leave the rest to me as that's the part that I do. Thanks, – Jazzi (talk) 18:04, October 14, 2012 (UTC)
Hey man, just wondering why you'd revert the corrections I made to the Epona page. I'm a horse breeder, so I have extensive knowledge of equine color genetics and the expression of phenotypes. I just thought it was weird...
