Thank you very much for blocking that user. I noticed that after warning the user, he/she continued doing it. Did I handle it well?

Ali Sono Sugoi said:
I knew about that, but when people get an official warning, it can make them not want to come back or contribute. Some people, no matter how nasty the vandalism may be, they just might not be familiar with the way things work. Aftr the 2nd or 3rd time, they get a warning. I notified you, because of how serious that was. A friend of mine thought it would be fun to post random things on talkpages and such, but when she got one of those messages, she sorta started to understand that wikiHow is not a place for vandalism. Sooo ya...

Hey Dave,
Here is another person playing the padded patrol count game.

OhioMike said:
Hey Dave,
Guess what? The patrolling problem is happening to everyone. Look at my patrol log. I don't think anyone is doing this on purpose.
On 07:33, October 16, 2008
OhioMike said:
Yes I agree with that. It's weird how everybody's are doubling up tho. Sorry you don't feel well. I'll leave you alone.
On 07:44, October 16, 2008

I could see that but I thought it gave separate patrol numbers for each. Now I'm getting confused thanks...lol

Hi Dave, Thanks for your answer. Do you know of a way that I can get the original Google back??? Some of my gadgets no longer work. It's a major pain. Also do you know how I can get in touch with a Google HomePage tech???...maybe they could help...I don't know how to get in touch with them. Thanks, Daimon~

Hey Dave,
I never had this happen before. I found a copyright violation, and linked to it, and now looking back a few hours later the link is dead. I thought maybe I copied the link wrong, so I looked it back up on the search engine, and it's there, but it confirmed that the link is still dead. Now to the point is the article still a copyvio if my proof disappeared. Here is the article I've been blabbing about. Copy Movie Dvd to Dvd Disc Using Any Dvd Cloner

Yes, I am, the sole copyright of this article. I do believe the article is very similar to one of the websites......as my mother wrote it and I think I may have recited it on to the website years/ moths ago. If you want to edit it a little it a little, it will be much appreciated.

Juelle Bembry said:
Yes, sir. My mother and father are great cooks and they have a lot of cooking websites. They also have a lot of executives and cooking ideas, which I have read. Sorry about the information and if you want me to edit, cut out or add in anything to the articles, I shall.

Mr. Crosby,
Hate to call on your expertise so soon, but I was RC patrolling and noticed an edit that states that the user is 16. Is this personal information that should be deleted or left as is?

Hey Dave, you don't happen to know who operates wikiHowl do you?
On 23:52, November 3, 2008

Aww, I recently heard in the forums that a wikiHow admin manages them, and that his name is Dave Crosby. And I know Dave Crosby is funny. So I just had to check.

On 22:37, November 4, 2008
Eric Wester said:
Yes, I have had to do that before. (Not for sorting the admins.) I have had to do if before when I was correcting a spelling error and in the summary I accidentally wrote speling or seplling, etc.

Our little friend, Motionsicknessbiggestfan, is still making copyvios. And I learned that her past recipes like the "Victoria Sandwich" and other ones are coming from http://www.123peppy.com/games/cooking-games .
I put myself in a big categorizing project with an online time limit on a shared laptop. Can you please help with the copyvio situation? Just give her a "can't edit wikiHow" break for a while if you wish. ;)

Dave, okay so maybe it'll be a little hard for you to understand this:
I just wrote Cheesy Bacon Melts recipe 2 weeks ago. It took you a week to recgonize that is copyvio, but when I submitted the 1 Fish 2 Fish recipe last week you recognized it after 10 minutes.
The reason why I'm stealing recipes from 123peppy because it's neat, and they never said you could't steal things..
So does this make sense to you and Maluniu?
