== Vandalism on "IBM PC/XT emulators" ==
+
Can you set the page [[Recommended emulators]] to admin only? I think it's too important to be left unprotected. [[User:Yeahwhatever|Yeahwhatever]] ([[User talk:Yeahwhatever|talk]]) 23:54, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
  
Hey, can you lock that page? MoochMcgee has been shitting it up by removing the PCem recommendation and shilling for 86box(WHICH HE IS A DEVELOPER FOR!). I removed his vandalism, but 189.69.137.140 keeps reverting my changes.

Latest unvandalized version: http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php?title=IBM_PC/XT_emulators&oldid=14571
 
  
== Spam surge from Indian cold-callers ==
+
Prob a stupid question but is there any reason we aren't running newer versions of the wiki software? most of these releases are EOL, e.g. MediaWiki 1.32 is almost 6 years old, and there have been 2 LTS releases since that time, and current wikis are encouraged to use some version of PHP 8 instead of 7.
  
I know it's fairly obvious, but would you mind doing a database purge of these bastards? [[User:Blakegripling ph|Blakegripling ph]] ([[User talk:Blakegripling ph|talk]]) 10:52, 4 September 2017 (EDT)
+
There might be a good reason, I just do not know what it is.
:Also, it would be prudent to either change the CAPTCHA scheme or add a more robust IP blacklist as countless wikis have been mercilessly inundated by this cold-caller faux customer support shit. [[User:Blakegripling ph|Blakegripling ph]] ([[User talk:Blakegripling ph|talk]]) 04:34, 5 September 2017 (EDT)
 
::ITEM-3 owns and runs the servers not me, but I've sent him a email asking to change our verification captcha, so it'll hopefully be fixed soon. --[[User:SonofUgly|SonofUgly]] ([[User talk:SonofUgly|talk]]) 10:44, 6 September 2017 (EDT)
 
:::He should add an IP blacklist as well, and DeletePagesPermanently to purge database traces of the pages in question rather than merely flag them as deleted. And if you ask me, merging all them spambots to a reserve, throwaway account should be in order. [[User:Blakegripling ph|Blakegripling ph]] ([[User talk:Blakegripling ph|talk]]) 17:47, 6 September 2017 (EDT)
 
  
== Redirect 'Need Games?' to 'ROM/ISO sites' ==
+
== Hi. ==
  
That way there should be less bitching in the thread about it, if you agree though you need to lock the page as there's this faggot who's just gonna remove the redirection out of his personal vendetta against the Reddit boogeyman.
+
It's WebMint. A former contributor on a new alt account. I've been blocked on this wiki for over a year and I'm requsting to be unblocked on my previous account so that I can contribute with it again properly. It was justified and to explain my last behaviour, I couldn't handle criticism and was too obsessed with attention but instead of taking accountability, I've been taking it out on you and the thread with angry gibberish inserted over on pages like this. - [[User:Tukutu|Tukutu]] ([[User talk:Tukutu|talk]]) 17:17, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
  
:Boo-hoo, "I need an adult" much? That page was removed as part of a conseus between regular collaborators here since it was being hotlinked elsewhere, from sheltered ignoramuses who don't even care about the wiki to look up its front page, and since it was a lightning rod for everything hotlinked there that many people here took great pains to upload only for it to be served on a plate of gold for your lazy ass and Sony lawyers. Even Playstation sets were taken down which is a first.
+
== Copyright ==
  
:The only bitching about this was on external sites, not for anyone here who can read. We're all good here. The only reason you want to restore that link which is not referenced anymore ''in this wiki'' but updated to the newer page, is that you want a link within some external site post leeching off here fixed. We ain't compiling links just for your shitty reddit karma. Make your own pastebin and link to it, leech.
+
This wiki doesn't state its copyright (though a Creative Commons license would be assumed due to being on older iterations of this site). [[Special:Contributions/108.162.245.218|108.162.245.218]] 06:32, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
  
:Since it's request time, I suggest this page's history be removed, and if possible for the page itself to be deleted. [[User:Dipswitch|Dipswitch]] ([[User talk:Dipswitch|talk]]) 10:32, 6 February 2018 (EST)
+
== New user causing a mess ==
  
::So you're just gonna pretend that nobody ever comes to the thread to ask what happened to the old page? I proposed my suggestion so that we get less of these shitposts, yours are entirely based on paranoia.
+
Chipsum is trying to force a main page that /emugen/ agreed that doesn't look great and is now causing an edit war. Please check the general and his edits. [[User:Yeahwhatever|Yeahwhatever]] ([[User talk:Yeahwhatever|talk]]) 02:18, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

:Please pardon me, sir. I am merely undoing your vandalism; users consented to transmit edits made on the [[Sandbox]]. Where did you see the agreement?

:::The page and the links we upload (some of it is fucking hard to find) and add to it still remaining online is a concern that trumps the convenience of dumbasses who can't browse a wiki to a page literally two clicks away, or the convenience of those who bend their asses backwards to cater to them... if that demographic isn't made up to begin with. They can get fucked for all I care. I checked the thread just now btw and it was just one poster (you?) bitching about it. The takedowns on the other hand were a pattern, and were very real.
+
== Someone is vandalizing the main page ==
:::Also I know you just came from reddit or whatever other shithole but can you at least have the decency to sign your posts? It's confusing otherwise. [[User:Dipswitch|Dipswitch]] ([[User talk:Dipswitch|talk]]) 11:17, 6 February 2018 (EST)
 
  
:::The point is moot anyways. r/Piracy updated their link to the newer page "ROM/ISO Sites". Is there a way to implement a protection against hotlinking on mediawiki? [[User:Dipswitch|Dipswitch]] ([[User talk:Dipswitch|talk]]) 11:25, 6 February 2018 (EST)
+
There is someone vandalizing the main page and engaging in edit warring, just because he doesn't like the new design users contributed in the [[Sandbox]].
 +
<br>
 +
I believe it's the user [[User:Yeahwhatever|Yeahwhatever]], I tried to be patient but I got so confused.

::::It's common practice to turn the old page into a redirection when moving a wiki page you ignorant jackass, also warez get taken down because they're illegal, not because they're listed on some obscure wiki. If you're really concerned about the links getting taken down you'd suggest that they be deleted completely from this site and move them into some something password-protected instead. Whether you admit it or not, you're opposed to my suggestion because I called you out on your ignorance so now you're trying to get your petty revenge on me. By the way, I brought this up here because I know you're petty enough to resort into an edit-war otherwise.

== Can you do something... ==
+
Hi, Chipsum
AKA "'''The Great Wiki Editing Crisis of Q4 2018 and Onwards'''" (Or ''how to deal with simpletons who SHOULD NOT be editing here!'')
 
  
...about [[Special:Contributions/176.88.20.222|176.88.20.222]] ([[User talk:176.88.20.222|talk]]) he keeps creating useless redirects and putting an emulator called Orbital, which can't play games, on the PS4 page. He won't listen and doesn't make any sense once he responds. Also --[[Special:Contributions/176.88.20.49|176.88.20.49]] ([[User talk:176.88.20.49|talk]]) tried to, probably, scam people with a "working" Xbox One "emulator" that 28 games are playable and a "perfect" 3ds "emulator" called 3ds-emu. [[Lilshootdawgarchivepage1#Jpxtalkbackup|My archive of the talk page.]] --[[User:LilShootDawg|LilShootDawg]] ([[User talk:LilShootDawg|talk]]) 10:42, 31 October 2018 (EDT)
+
<b>[[User:Yeahwhatever]]</b> came from fucking 4chan community. They are brainless peoples.
:Orbital is legit and worth mentioning on the page. And it seems he's fixing redirects more than adding them, its' fine.
+
Chipsum you are doing well, continue your work. Everyone likes your work except 4chan peoples.
:If someone spams links or repeatedly adds fake emulators it'll be dealt with. --[[User:SonofUgly|SonofUgly]] ([[User talk:SonofUgly|talk]]) 17:10, 31 October 2018 (EDT)
+
They are motherfuckers, bitches.
  
Also similar issues with another person (Or is it the same person?) with a [http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/User_talk:212.252.97.52 different IP address]. Also his activities and patterns of behaviour seem rather similar to those of a similar IP address from early this month of Nov 2018, just with a different subnet at the end ([http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/User_talk:212.252.97.163 212.252.97.163]). Fun fact: all 4 of these IP addresses (Two starting with 176 and couple starting with 212) originate from one single nation...
+
Shit fuuuuuker guyyysssss
  
He seems to continually be making all the [http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/User_talk:212.252.97.52 ruckus] and forcing many other users (with their own created user accounts) to correct so many tiny and silly edits being made on an almost daily basis by him. He also rather has a penchant for just making new 'one-tiny-line pages', which in turn forces the bulk load of work to fix up onto other users. I also notice that he seems to be addicted to checking EVERY page that's either available on this wiki or what the other people have been doing recently and then putting in seemingly unnecessary or tedious changes. It's become annoying. I think he's got an intellectual disability as he has a very poor understanding of English and never seems to research anything OUTSIDE of this wiki's site. You only need to see the main recent changes page to see an abundance of proof.
+
I support you denda.  
  
Also, one regular user, who's been tirelessly trying to correct all of these silly changes (including the stupid wiping of various platform brands on many pages' infoboxes to be turned into the generic term 'multi-platform'), has been making similar corrections to many fraudulent changes from some other unusual IP address sources. Upon checking, I've found that they also do come from the same nation as the other IPs above. I believe it is the same person who has the ability to use a VPN software to change to several proxy addresses from within the same country. Such trolling (even if it's unintentional, but the fact that this has been going on for WAY too long) is extremely tiring for all of the rest of us and, IMO, is making this wiki look bad compared to many other wiki sites. See:

I actually believe [http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Special:Contributions/YusufT19 YusufT19] is the same user behind all of these non-stop edits. Though, it'd not be unfeasible to assume that he may have some friends doing similar things and that he's bragging to them about how he's 'lording' over the rest of the local wiki community here. He's very pushy. Though, another possibility arises that he may have been visiting different places like shops or friends' houses where he gets to use an available computer with a different IP address. When will you realise that he's being a persistent troll and dick? Just needs to stop using all those addresses... Though, he has made some legitimate commits, but many others are outright unnecessary or 'damaging' to pages here. I wonder if you'll finally exterminate his presence out of this wiki forever? This has been going on for too long. Come on, I'm so tired of this shit - correcting stupid errors & page damages. WAY too many dumb and vandalizing errors still ongoing from JUST ONE PERSON!!! Just ban him for good!

:He literally just blanked the main talk page. Ban him please? --[[User:LilShootDawg|LilShootDawg]] ([[User talk:LilShootDawg|talk]]) 13:08, 2 December 2018 (EST)
 
::Totally agreed. I was incensed when he reverted MY reverts of his fraudulent edits of the higan & bsnes branches' version numberings at the SNES page twice. So I waited and LilShootDawg fixed it again. Days later, he STILL removed my reinsertion of the proper text flow in the bigger description field at Supermodel's page stating that the emulator was written in C++ and blah, blah. Just look at the [http://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php?title=Supermodel&action=history view history page].
 
::I'm just so sick of seeing the main recent changes page be almost completely filled out by many stupid and damaging edits from the one retard. Everything I said above, as well as the notes I put in some of his talk pages, are exactly accurate. It's VERY HARD for us to keep up with his crazy 16-24hr/day watch & hundreds of edits (I just wanna focus on improvements & content creation, come on, not waste time fruitlessly looking at his dumb edits). WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! Are you missing? Hope you're well. We ALL want him GONE, KAPUT! [[User:ObiKKa|ObiKKa]] ([[User talk:ObiKKa|talk]]) 09:40, 3 December 2018 (EST)

Thanks for locking the PS4 page. I was sick of fighting that battle of keeping Orbital listed. Not sure what LilShootDawg's problem was. I identified the most recent vandalizer (167.60.28.117) as a troll lurking on the Orbital discord server. Is it possible to just IP ban him outright? --Michael

So we don't have that IP person fucking up the wiki. --[[User:LilShootDawg|LilShootDawg]] ([[User talk:LilShootDawg|talk]]) 10:27, 19 December 2018 (EST)
 
:Something like that. But can you tell how would that work? The security system here would need to have a real time monitoring operation running on a server so that it stops all those multiple IP addresses that the rogue bot is aggressively pursuing every day. The wiki's bot here seems to be asleep for at least 8 hours of the day, maybe because the computer it's running on would be turned off temporarily. Also the good bot seems to block those addresses quickly more often after you, Lil, or some others like BlueMoonRedSun revert some of that evil bot's edits. At some times, it seems to take that wiki not an awfully long time to block the bad bot's ID's, e.g. 8-ish hours, after I revert several of the edits from one of those new addresses. It's pretty demotivating for me to check in here on some days and see those outrageous cyber attacks the likes of which we've never seen before on this wiki or forums.
 
:I actually agree with you. We should revert EVERY action he/bad bot makes to the wiki just to simplify the process of reviewing. If it makes 2 bots (the evil programmer knew of this) on a single page, then we just have to back to the prior good commit, edit that archived page, copy the text, and then paste it into the current page version.

Request[edit]

Can you set the page Recommended emulators to admin only? I think it's too important to be left unprotected. Yeahwhatever (talk) 23:54, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

MediaWiki current version(s)[edit]

Prob a stupid question but is there any reason we aren't running newer versions of the wiki software? most of these releases are EOL, e.g. MediaWiki 1.32 is almost 6 years old, and there have been 2 LTS releases since that time, and current wikis are encouraged to use some version of PHP 8 instead of 7.

There might be a good reason, I just do not know what it is.

Hi.[edit]

It's WebMint. A former contributor on a new alt account. I've been blocked on this wiki for over a year and I'm requsting to be unblocked on my previous account so that I can contribute with it again properly. It was justified and to explain my last behaviour, I couldn't handle criticism and was too obsessed with attention but instead of taking accountability, I've been taking it out on you and the thread with angry gibberish inserted over on pages like this. - Tukutu (talk) 17:17, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

New user causing a mess[edit]

Chipsum is trying to force a main page that /emugen/ agreed that doesn't look great and is now causing an edit war. Please check the general and his edits. Yeahwhatever (talk) 02:18, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Please pardon me, sir. I am merely undoing your vandalism; users consented to transmit edits made on the Sandbox. Where did you see the agreement? I am not even the one who transferred the edits from the sandbox.Chipsum ✉️ 14:30, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
+ I edit warring ? You are the one who did undo 3 times, unlike me I did 2 times and I stopped because of my good manners. If you did this on Wikipedia you would have been banned. Chipsum ✉️ 14:30, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Someone is vandalizing the main page[edit]

There is someone vandalizing the main page and engaging in edit warring, just because he doesn't like the new design users contributed in the Sandbox.
I believe it's the user Yeahwhatever, I tried to be patient but I got so confused. Chipsum ✉️ 14:30, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

+He referred to me as newfag and said I that I am making a mess: This Revision
+I am still not sure what the mess is; please review all of my edits. I am here to contribute, I have not messed anything.Chipsum ✉️ 14:58, 22 March 2024 (UTC)


Hi, Chipsum

User:Yeahwhatever came from fucking 4chan community. They are brainless peoples. Chipsum you are doing well, continue your work. Everyone likes your work except 4chan peoples. They are motherfuckers, bitches.

Shit fuuuuuker guyyysssss

I support you denda.

No worry my brother chipsum.


your enemy (4chan)

Alright, things are becoming even more unclear. What on earth is going on? and why would the website 4chan be my adversary? I don't even know it to use it!


Like everyone else, I am simply making a contribution. I realize that the attempt to somewhat alter the main page's design was made quickly, but everyone else is also making a contribution to it in the SandBox that was made by another User.


Additionally, I wrapped most of the tables in responsive divs because they were so clumsy on smartphones. Some users proposed wide tables to accommodate additional content, but if that constitutes vandalism and chaos, then this is just plain stupid.


I do not really have many enemies on the internet—more like differing viewpoints than actual enemies—but I never participate in negativity because I want to use the internet to further emulation and have a positive impact, which makes me happy.


I am sorry, but I have nothing else to say. If you find fault with my contributions, please contact me through my User Talk page. I assure you that I am a respectful, open-minded person who is eager to have a decent conversation. That's all folks.

Hi, Chipsum I can tell you everything about 4chan's darkside. They are bitches in my opinion. For example if you are doing contribution about good things (layout, emulation, design, etc..), they are doing fucking shit about your and other contributers. I don't know why 4chan still exist here. YOU DON'T NEED TO AFRAID WITH 4CHAN COMMUNITY. CONTINUE YOUR WORK ON WIKI. THANK YOU YOU.
