Zook Upgrade Pictures

I found a mistake on the Zook page - his Mortar Attack and Full Splinter Jacket pictures are the wrong way round. The same for Jet-Vac, "The Mulcher" and "Tank Reserves" are the wrong way round, but I don't know how to change pictures in that template, so can you sort it out please? Thanks! Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 19:59, September 23, 2013 (UTC)

Jet-Vac's pictures are correct, but I correct Zook's. -- Aura24 (talk) 23:02, September 24, 2013 (UTC)
I think it's acutally the TEXT that's the wrong way round for Jet-Vac, not the pictures. Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 06:10, September 25, 2013 (UTC)
You "think"... The upgrade lineup are correct after I looked it up on videos of Zook's and Jet-Vac's upgrades in the game. -- Aura24 (talk) 06:13, September 25, 2013 (UTC)
Jet-Vacs is definitely wrong, I checked in-game and the mixed up ones are correct on there. Maybe we're talking about it on a different console? Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 18:48, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
That may be, different consoles may have the upgrade pictures mixed. I have the 360 version. -- Aura24 (talk) 18:53, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Pictures

Don't forget Dune Bug.

We need Fryno's picture right away.

It's not a life and death thing, kiddo. -- Aura24 (talk) 22:35, September 24, 2013 (UTC)

We don't have a picture of Trap Shadow in his page yet.

Wash Buckler's character trailer

Why won't you add Wash Buckler's character trailer to his page? Wikimaster S (talk) 01:30, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Aura24. Wikimaster S (talk) 04:36, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

I would like to talk to you.

Can we talk privately on chat? Killerharper94 (talk) 02:24, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

Pop Thorn Species?

I'm sorry for bothering you with this, but has it been confirmed that Pufferthorns aren't a type of dragon? I've seen a few other places where he was called a dragon, and his deflated form in his concept art looks rather like a dragon... (If it has, there needs to be a few edits to the Pop Thorn and Air pages as well.)

His backstory doesn't mention Pop Thorn being a dragon. -- Aura24 (talk) 22:20, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

Fire Kraken

Please put in his trivia that he resembles Mushu from the Mulan series

That'a more of something you put on Fire Kraken's talk page. Questing! (talk) 11:33, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

Hello

Im new to the wiki how can i help

Your choice.  --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 19:34, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

My blog

Why did you delete my 'Female Strengths and Weaknesses' blog? Do you just not like it?  Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 18:37, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

It was drawing in negative reaction. You did post in a bragging kind of way. -- Aura24 (talk) 18:38, September 27, 2013 (UTCI
Bragging? I could have done that in the 'Swap Force News' blog but it just would be too long. I admit, it might not have been good to neglect that blog (I said "buffable Swap Force News blog"). Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 18:47, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
Either way, you may want to watch your behavior and "know-it-all Skylander" thing around here from now on. -- Aura24 (talk) 18:59, September 27, 2013 (UTC) 
Know-it-all Skylander thing? Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 20:13, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
You act like you know almost everything about Skylanders, when you really don't. And the fact you don't have SSA and you aren't entirely sure about some content from that game is getting a little annoying. -- Aura24 (talk) 20:14, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
You're not discriminating me because I only have Giants, are you? Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 07:03, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
Oh no no, I just think you need to tone down your 'know-it-all' Skylander behavior, especially with BRR. You're not a Skylanders expert here. Also, you're not an admin, therefore please stop doing our job. I know you're trying to help, but this is getting a little ridiculous. -- Aura24 (talk) 07:17, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
Ah ok. I would like you to delete my 'Inactive users' blog as it is completely outdated; SkylanderFanFromFinland and Grigarem are back. Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 08:41, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Who's Cuter?

I may be wondering, is Wrecking Ball cuter than Pop Thorn or is Pop Thorn cuter than Wrecking Ball? You got to help me decide Aura! Who is cuter, Wrecking Ball or Pop Thorn? ULTRA COMBO! (Talk)

Pop Thorn definitely Pop Thorn it actually says he hails from one of the cutest races inn Skylands--Alphawhale69 (talk) 04:12, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you with this...

I noticed you re-did SporeVideo's change to some pages to put the Series 1 art first. Is there any reason that these pages need that, or do you want all the Skylander's page to have that?

Because it would make more sense to have their debut picutres first than their Series 2/3 counterparts first. -- Aura24 (talk) 17:59, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
True but then we're forced to see the ugly picture of Cynder. Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 18:46, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
.... REAL, don't start. -- Aura24 (talk) 18:46, September 28, 2013 (UTC)
Why does everyone think the Skylanders are ugly? AdamGregory03 (talk) 00:55, September 29, 2013 (UTC)
Ah, i see your point. I'll edit the other Skylander's pages with that, then.
Cynder's not ugly. She just looks wrong on her Series 1 picture... to me. Be Real. Be a Nerfer. Be a Ninja. BOOM! (talk) 06:25, September 29, 2013 (UTC)
Then why bring that little issue of yours into this? -- Aura24 (talk) 06:26, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

Cynder trivia

Hey Aura, noticed the trivia for Cynder is in the series 2 gallery for some reason.. since I can't edit that, I was wondering if you could?

Your comment on Skeletal Cynder

Remember your comment on Skeletal Cynder: "SkylandersGame will likely post a high quality version of Skeletal Cynder soon.". Well, they didn't upload Hoppity Pop Fizz or Fireworks Zook's image. I thought I should use this image for the article just incase they don't. Even if they did, you can always replace the image anytime. BRRSpore (talk) 09:52, October 1, 2013 (UTC)

Pictures

Why did you delete my pictures of Kickoff Countdown, Springtime Trigger Happy, Jade Fire Kraken and Jolly Bumble Blast? They are real.... -TraGiggles

Toys for Bob are removing images of these Skylanders until it's okay for them to be posted at a later time. -- Aura24 (talk) 20:20, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
Oh ok. Thanks :)

Second Try

Hi Aura, I've noted that you continue to display the first two upgrades of each as of yet unreleased character in the template section designated for their basic attacks. As demonstrated in the very video you linked me to, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_f9dfpfMeM, each character in the new format possesses three or four attacks/upgrades preceding the two rows which hold the two different paths.

Now, at one point, Mega Ram Spyro himself is placed upon a Power Pod. You may note at this point that the first four upgrades are the same ones listed on Spyro's article. Even if this isn't enough evidence to change the information listed on Swap Force characters, Zoo Lou's article should at the very least be edited.

  --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 21:04, October 2, 2013 (UTC)

I am using the Upgrades template for the new core Skylanders. If there is no fourth basic upgrade, then you don't have to put anything in there. -- Aura24 (talk) 21:17, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
Nu nu nu, I mean Zoo Lou's first two upgrades are listed on the article and entered into the template as {power1} and {power2}, instead of {basicupgrade1} and {basicupgrade2}, while upgrades three and four take their places.  --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 01:53, October 3, 2013 (UTC)

Ah yes, on that note, perhaps a new, slightly different template should be generated for Swap Force Skylanders?

--Indeed, quite so. (talk) 01:56, October 3, 2013 (UTC)

We sort of have to wait on it until release day as Series 3 characters like the Wow Pow thing is very much confusing now.WickedRogue (talk) 04:59, October 3, 2013 (UTC)
Aura, all the Series 3 Skylanders have the Series 2 Wow Pows in the figures. Need to do something with the template eventually at this point.WickedRogue (talk) 20:45, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, I'll be getting to that sooner or later. -- Aura24 (talk) 21:55, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
It's just so confusing, I don't get why they did it this way. Can't even say Series 3 figures do not have Series 2 Wow Pow's. So far for me personally I prefer 1 of the Series 2 Wow Pow over a Series 3 Wow Pow. I just wish they offered both of them for Series 3.WickedRogue (talk) 23:48, October 16, 2013 (UTC)
Did a few changes, added the second Wow Pow section. -- Aura24 (talk) 00:22, October 17, 2013 (UTC)

Skylanders: Swap Force Release

Hey there! My name's Matt and I'm a community development associate at Wikia. With Skylanders: Swap Force's release right around the corner, we thought it was the perfect time to work on some interesting features focusing on the game and all of the new bells and whistles it brings to the Skylanders universe. Do you or any of the other admins have anything planned at the moment?

Also, would you mind if I took some time to make a few visual and organization spiffs to the site? Nothing too major -- I just want to make sure things are as clean as possible before the game comes out. If I do anything you don't like, just let me know and I'll be glad to either revert or tweak the change.

Thanks!
Mhadick (talk) 00:25, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Well we have SWAP Force related pages under protection. As the game comes out and details are revealed, we will update some pages before moving onto the rest. Apart from that, we have nothing too major here. You also may want to check before you upload future images, Matt, since the ones you recently uploaded were already on the wiki image database. -- Aura24 (talk) 00:39, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Tut tut tut..........

Okay, so I am back and I am here to discuss my problems. With you.

1) you blocked me because I hate on female Skylanders. Although you may not know it, you seriously CANNOT block someone because they don't like something like that. It's not spam, it's not vandalism and it's barely harrassment. It's called ABUSING ADMIN POWERS. The reason why I do it in the first place is, as you should know, I don't find most of them good, and I get pissed and annoyed with the fact some users think females are better, then call me a badass because I disagree. I can hate on female Skylanders if I want.

2) you removed content from my userpage, that is my USERPAGE, I am allowed to put whatever I want on there. I've never done anything to yours, and just because yours hasn't got proper content on (it should do, I mean, you're an admin!), doesn't mean you can mess with mine. Apparently it's not theFIRST time you did that.

3) You repeatedly removed blog posts and comments. I still can't believe you removed the 'Strengths and Weaknesses' one. Like yesterday you deleted a complete RANDOM comment about Star Strike, and that WASN'T  hating on females. I'll swear you were just being mean when you did that, there can't be any other legit reason.

I hope you will take this into consideration; maybe it'll make you become a better admin and make this wiki a better community. BOOM against MMMMMM!!! (talk) 06:16, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

You got a lot of nerve showing no resolve to your behavior, REAL, and with this attitude as well. This is really getting out of hand, you knew you were going too far with your sexism. And did you forget that me and Wicked are female as well? -- Aura24 (talk) 06:21, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
No but I didn't exactly say 'females are dumb'. BOOM against MMMMMM!!! (talk) 06:26, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
I'm starting to think a simple 'week' block didn't teach you anything. At all. -- Aura24 (talk) 06:27, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
Next thing: if you accept Pop-Success Fizz calling me an imbecile and badass on the Swap Force News blog, why did you delete my one calling him a dimwit?? BOOM against MMMMMM!!! (talk) 06:32, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
Basically because your comment was right in front of me in the Recent Activity page. If you don't get your act together, REAL, especially with this sexist crap, I will make you never come back here nor the Spyro Wiki, ever again. I'm sure you get the message.
Or better yet, I should just block you again, this time forever. Since you put all of your energy to post such a disruptive comment on my talk page without show any remorse for the reason that got you blocked from here in the first place. You have an ego there, REAL. -- Aura24 (talk) 06:58, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
I will say it in 1 word. Sexism.WickedRogue (talk) 10:10, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
BOOM against MMMMMM!!! quit complaining, I'm all about being respectful. Right ladies? Wikimaster S (talk) 00:53, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
Um, what? REAL's signature in your post there. -- Aura24 (talk) 01:07, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
Well, a lot can happen when you're in Costa Rica for 6 days. Questing! (talk) 01:14, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
Like I said, I'm all about being respectful. Wikimaster S (talk) 14:03, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
In contrary to common belief here, I kind of see where REAL is going here. He's just saying that people think all female Skylanders are the best, but he thinks not all of them are good (cough FLASHWING cough). Then it kind of got out of hand. (And I think Wikimaster intentionally put REAL's signature so we knew he was talking to him.) How about no? (talk) 11:19, October 9, 2013 (UTC)
He did start out saying that not all female Skylanders were as good as others thought, even though this was only based on his expierences, but then he took it way too far without any reason too, he was overjoyed if someone was "hating on a female with him" or if they didn't have a female in their favorites list. I don't see any reason for him to do so. -- User:TechSkylander1518 (talk)
Ahhh, I see. Sorry then, Wikimaster.
Either way, REAL is gone, blocked forever for continuing his sexism thing, then having an attitude with me the moment he returned like he had prepared for it. -- Aura24 (talk) 17:01, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

No biggie Aura, because in the end, you've figured out what I mean. To be honest with you, I can't handle complainers here. Wikimaster S (talk) 04:39, October 10, 2013 (UTC)

Having a problem uploading a photo :(

So I created Philosoraptor meme that talked about the Giants' sidekicks and saved it in my gallery to post it here. However, it's not being uploaded, because it said that ".jpeg" doesn't match with itthe MIME type or something. So I looked at the permissible image thingies (seriously don't know what they're called) and it did say that it allows ".jpeg". It's not even working here either (just thought at this point). Could you help me? Killerharper94 (talk) 08:37, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

It has to be posted with the same image file (.jpg, .png, or other file). Or a different image file. -- Aura24 (talk) 08:30, October 8, 2013 (UTC)
Awwwwww :( and it was funny and quite the thinker. "If Giant Skylanders' sidekicks are miniature versions of them, wouldn't they be regular sized Skylanders?" I don't think I know how do change the file image. Killerharper94 (talk) 08:37, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

Enchanted

Is some other Enchanted figures to follow besides the ones that we know about, just thought you would like a heads up about it.WickedRogue (talk) 14:16, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

I have no idea. -- Aura24 (talk) 18:37, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

A Problem

The random qoute on the front page said "Hail to the Mail", not "Hail to the Whale!", but I'm not sure how to change it.

It's Thumpback's quote from the Skylanders: Giants Easter commercial. -- Aura24 (talk) 23:20, October 9, 2013 (UTC)

NEW Offer Reply ASAP

Hey,

I am a relatively experienced coder and i am willing to offer any assistance with the improvement and re-organisation of the wiki.

Please notify if you are willing to accept my offer.

(Note: i am very experienced in reorganising huge databases so this is easy)

Thx Kk9199

P.S. if u wish to see example of my effort see the few wikis i am affiliated with in particular kingdom clash and pocket fort as i have done large amounts of work in only a few days

Hmm, do you own Skylanders?WickedRogue (talk) 12:17, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
Yess i do!
So you guys give me the all clear to edit and structure things like the wiki nav?
Also to do as such i will need Admin priviledges. i understand you may find that suspicious but believe me things on this wiki will improve i love skylanders!
Ok i will help once i have admin abilities as i am unable to edit the wiki nav.
UM HELLO!
Well we don't just give admin privileges to just anyone. What kind of changes are you showing us? -- Aura24 (talk) 08:31, October 12, 2013 (UTC)
I have nothing to show other than the fact that i admin a wiki and own another.
They are the Kingdom clash and pocket fort wikis
So admin pls so i can edit wiki nav and stuff
Sorry, not looking for just another admin.WickedRogue (talk) 23:23, October 14, 2013 (UTC)
Ok welll unforunately i lack permissions to do any organisation of the wiki for you guys

Apology

I didn't mean to get you worked up. I just wanted to get things done fast enough. By the way you can delete my blogs. Wikimaster S (talk) 01:30, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Welcome response

Thanks for the welcome. I plan to do my occasional help on this site starting with the cast list for the different video games. We already know the cast list for the first two games and we'll know who voices who in the Skylanders: Swap Force video game once the credits are out on YouTube.

Standard Procedure

Hi Aura24. As is traditional, the disagreement is taken to your talk page.

So, on the assumption that you possess the game, and then on the further assumption that you have a Wii (I can't find that information about you anywhere), simply pause or hit '1' to see a Skylander's full ability list, locked or unlocked.  If you haven't begun to play with Wash Buckler yet, or aren't badly affected by a reset, you can easily see that only one ability matches the description:

"...Basic Abilities                                                                                                                                        These abilities are available from the start of the game."

and that would be Sword Slash.

Also, I think you accidentally Octolash's desc and the bottom soul gem's name.  And you misspelled 'shoot' in Dangerous Waters.

Peace.  --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 20:15, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

For your infromation, I have played with Wash Buckler, my edit of Wash Buckler's upgrades were from the Xbox 360 version of the game, not the Wii. The upgrade list hasn't been updated since September, so there is some editing to be done indeed. But before making assumptions, I would simply just address the problem without assume the wildest claims possible. -- Aura24 (talk) 00:52, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
Yet should you instead possess the Wii, the only change relative to my argument would be that you would then have use of the '1' button. Game system is irrelevant to gameplay when all information, including attacks unlocked, is stored upon the characters themselves. --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 01:36, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
I am aware of the controls different in each console. The only information I had of Wash Buckler was a video that showed his upgrades on the Wii back in September. I didn't know it was such an issue for some until I can get around and add in the correct descriptions. -- Aura24 (talk) 01:33, October 22, 2013 (UTC)
How would just owning the Wii version make it irrelevant? If anything that would make it be noted as something that is only on the Wii Version.WickedRogue (talk) 09:06, October 26, 2013 (UTC)
Apologies for the ambiguity, but the point I attempted to make was that there couldn't possibly be large differences between game systems, and especially not in attack lists. If there were, the feature which allows you to switch characters and all their progress between games would fail, due to an incompatibility in upgrade progress. In fact, I only mentioned the Wii at all on a whim. --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 22:06, October 26, 2013 (UTC)

I've decided to see what this Darkspyro.net is that has every picture, just with a logo.  I'm guessing that you've been there before.  Now that I've taken a look, have you ever considered using their information to fill in the blanks here?

And behold!: http://www.darkspyro.net/swapforce/upgrades/.  Direct proof, easy to see, that Swap Force Skylanders begin with only a single ability, and have different price tags.  --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 18:23, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

I am actually a member of those forums, Arc. And I'm planning on adding the information soon. -- Aura24 (talk) 20:18, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

You know we have a ton of stuff that is worked on besides just the template?WickedRogue (talk) 22:26, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I've never considered that you were just too busy. --Indeed, quite so. (talk) 15:31, October 28, 2013 (UTC)
The point is we work on all of it, not just one part. I still work and play all 3 games in the series. I see a ton that just specifically only play Swap Force now.WickedRogue (talk) 22:02, October 28, 2013 (UTC)
