Civility

Hi. I know you're new and all, but your edit comment on this edit was fairly hostile. You might want to discuss your edits before reverting again. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 19:31, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

I did read the IfD discussions. Obviously. That is how I was able to comment. Neither I nor the others involved believed that there would be loss of revenue. That is the consensus position. If you don't agree with it, I'm sorry. ╟─TreasuryTag►without portfolio─╢ 13:28, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Awwww, all the keep arguments missed the point? Damn. Well, that's very unfortunate. Consensus still stands. ╟─TreasuryTag►estoppel─╢ 13:37, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

It may seem strange, but the person listing the image for deletion doesn't actually get to rule that all the opposing arguments are "bad" – ╟─TreasuryTag►quaestor─╢ 13:43, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Ah, I see, you're just trying to disrupt things, then. Thanks for clarifying. ╟─TreasuryTag►Counsellor of State─╢ 13:46, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Impersonation...

It looks here as if you trying to impersonate another editor. I've reverted you, but would be interested for an explanation in case I've misunderstood.

Cheers, TFOWR^{idle vapourings} 12:21, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

I too would be interested in an explanation, since it looks like you were trying to impersonate me. This seems rather uncivil, have I personally harassed you in such a way that you feel this kind of retaliation is appropriate? —RP88 ^(talk) 12:41, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

I imagine it's related to me accidentally posting my archiving question here instead of on your talk page, but as I reverted it I assumed they would realize it was a mistake. VernoWhitney (talk) 12:46, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Lol.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Vaypertrail (talk • contribs) 13:56, 5 June 2010

Your earlier contributions seem to have been quite useful. TFOWR^{idle vapourings} 13:59, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Signatures

Hi. This would seem to suggest that you might have plans to continue impersonating others with your signatures. Please be advised that this behavior is unacceptable per Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. You need to sign your own username, not spoof somebody else's. Perhaps you were joking at VernoWhitney and above, but, now that you know that this is not permitted, persistence is likely to lead to your account being blocked from editing. It is not only important that other contributors be able to easily respond to you, but it is important that you not attribute your words to somebody else. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 14:20, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Re:Nomination of Jay Pinkerton for deletion

Well, I didn't create that article, so go ahead, but please use more discretion that simply tagging and nominating all Valve employee articles for deletion, simply because there is not extensive information. DarthBotto _talk•cont 02:55, 04 November 2012 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Steam logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:Steam logo.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:05, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Valve Anti-Cheat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ubuntu (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Steam logo.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Steam logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:51, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ferret. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Valve Corporation that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ... and other articles. You need to stop insulting editors with piped name calling. -- ferret (talk) 17:36, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Personal attack

I just read your personal attack against me and was not impressed. If you do that again, I will report you and see that you are banned. I provided a perfectly logical explanation that was backed by Valve's response where they clarified that it was an acquisition of two employees, not a company. If you believe such behavior is normal or acceptable around here, it is you who does not understand the functions of Wikipedia. DarthBotto _talk•cont 17:14, 05 September 2013 (UTC)

It was a 'reaction' not a 'personal attack'.--Vaypertrail (talk) 19:36, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi Vaypertrail, I've poked The Almightey Drill to address the rest of the concerns; I'm happy to give him another day or two but otherwise will delist. Samwalton9 (talk) 17:43, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Heartbleed, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Origin, SOE and GOG (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Thank you for your suggestion. When you believe an article needs improvement, please feel free to make those changes. Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone can edit almost any article by simply following the edit this page link at the top.
The Wikipedia community encourages you to be bold in updating pages. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes—they're likely to be found and corrected quickly. If you're not sure how editing works, check out how to edit a page, or use the sandbox to try out your editing skills. New contributors are always welcome. You don't even need to log in (although there are many reasons why you might want to). -- Aunva6^{talk - contribs} 15:15, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

July 2014

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Steam (software). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. WP:OR cannot really be applied to an image. if you want to use a different image for the logo, just replace the old one. try reading WP:LOGO -- Aunva6^{talk - contribs} 20:23, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks done.--Vaypertrail (talk) 20:45, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm ChamithN. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Steam (software) seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Chamith (talk) 15:24, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm EoRdE6. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Lizard Squad without explaining why.

Hello, I'm CzarFire. I noticed you recently put notability guideline concern without specification of why you felt it isn't notable. I've since edited the document accordingly to include more links and believe the article has been revised enough to be considered notable. If you have issue with it and resubmit your assertion, I would appreciate if you included details about the resubmission of concern for notability. If you think I'm mistaken, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 18:18, 09 March 2015 (UTC)

EDward Gaming AFD

@Vaypertrail: Hey there, I removed the tag from the page as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/EDward_Gaming doesn't exist and the tag linked to another article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Carbon_%28Halo_team%29), pretty sure that was an error on your end. -- Aethyta (talk) 18:27, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

The writing was sensationalist. The content was not technically removed; it was re-located and changed to a statement of fact. ViperSnake151  Talk  16:10, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
