That's a lengthy username you've got there. Anyways, welcome to the. Feel free to message us anytime.

Hello there, I hope you enjoy it here. 17:04, December 15, 2014 (UTC)

Background
Sorry, but the background is the same everywhere on the wiki. 18:39, December 17, 2014 (UTC)

Re: First Meeting
It was nice talking to you too.

Re: Userpage
Sorry for the late reply Thunder D;

For working on your userpage, I would recommend reading through two guides. The first is this blog, which details how to add links and pictures and colours and headings and the like, and the second is this page, which should help with fancy boxes and tabs and stuff :)

You can find images here on the Wiki by going through character galleries or by uploading your own. However, if you do upload your own, please, please, PLEASE be sure to follow the Image Policy.

I hope this helps! :D

03:02, January 3, 2015 (UTC)

You can just use this: I hope this is what you meant. :) 04:32, January 3, 2015 (UTC)

Hello there!

Re:Signature
Yes, if your signature uses a lot of coding, you'll need to create a subpage for it. ^___^ 03:04,2/10/2015

Podcast
Hi Snidget. The Fairy Tail Wiki Podcast was a show where we'd basically review the latest chapter of Fairy Tail on a weekly basis, following which we would rank the weekly shounen manga (mainly Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Toriko & Beelzebub, with Fairy Tail) followed by some jokes and then we would answer questions sent by the wiki users.

Last November, we ended the podcast, but our 2013 podcasts can be seen here. For the 2014 podcasts, I still need to make an archive page for them.

Re: FTA closure
Hey Thunder, yes the wiki is officially closed.

Re: Fanon
Sorry for taking so long to get back to you D;

Wow, I'm surprised people still look at that, it's so old XD Well, I guess when I write in general I try to imagine myself in the situations of the characters. If one is crying, I pretend I'm that character crying and then write that down: what position would I be in, what does it feel like to be this upset, etc. Lol, I guess that makes no sense, but what I'm trying to say is that I write from a visual picture I make in my head. As such I find it easier to write when I'm just sitting and daydreaming.

In terms of fanon for FT and stuff, I find that people enjoy it more when fanon characters aren't too overpowered, or when beat up a lot of the main cast, because that seems unreasonable. They seem to enjoy it more when the story of the OC intertwines with canon ideas so that your OC could actually exist in the canon story. Another thing I have noticed is that people like new and creative magic. They don't seem to like it when every OC has some lost Dragon Slayer magic and stuff like that, so I always try and be as original a possible, even with side characters ^__^ I'd also recommend not writing an OC into a relationship with any of the characters already shipped in the story. Like, when people start to read and Natsu is fawning over an OC, they stop, because odds are they ship NaLu or NaLi or something and don't care to read about your OC with part of their ship.

I'm sorry, this likely didn't help at all D; I'm horrible at giving pointers with things like this because I just sort of wing it all the time myself. I wish you good luck though with your story :D I'd love to read it when you're done :)

Re:Key of the Starry Sky arc
Hey! Well I'm so happy to hear you want to work on it! Well to trim down you just need to look it over and remove any unnecessary details, which can be done by removing entire sentences or just rewording parts so as to only leave the important stuff and shortening it. Also, you have to watch out to make sure the references still fit in their sections and also see that the amount of images is appropriate. I hope this help :) 21:43, April 23, 2015 (UTC)

Happy to have been of service 18:14, May 4, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Sig
It was a pretty simple mistake. You didn't put your username in the right spot. I fixed it for you. ^_____^ 15:55,5/18/2015

Re:Thank you
It's no problem at all. ^___^ And you should have in your preferences and the box that says "I want to use wikitext in my signature" should be clicked. If this doesn't fix your problem, let me know. 03:00,5/26/2015

Can you send me a screenshot of the signature section of your preferences? It'll help me to figure out the issue. 21:26,5/27/2015

Lol, you see that little box under the custom signature section? The little box beside the notice that says "I want to use wikitext in my signature." You need to click that box and then save your preferences. If you do that, your signature will be fixed. If you don't know what box I'm talking about, tell me and I'll show you a screenshot of it. 23:59,5/28/2015

Nah, you don't need that part. ^_____^ 19:10,5/30/2015

Re: User Infobox
Hey. First, thanks for the b'day wishes :D

Second, I take it you are referring to this infobox? If so, feel free to copy the codes and change all of the information to your own. If you change all of the pink colours to turquoise that'll be good too. As for a double border, I'm afraid I'm unsure. I had a lot of help coding that infobox and you might have to ask someone else~

13:08, June 20, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Carry's InfoBox
Yes. When you copy it over change "border:1px solid hotpink" to border:4px double turquoise" and that should do the trick. You probably should change the background color as well. ^___^  02:18,7/6/2015

RE: SnK
Hello. I'm pretty much gone from there. 15:57, July 8, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Thanks
It's fine. That's what I'm here for. ^___^ And no, there isn't. But I can create one for you if need be.  16:08,7/8/2015

Re:Template
No problem. I'll have the template up in like 30 minutes and I'll leave you a message when it's done. ^___^  15:43,7/9/2015


 * Actually, I see you are working on the infobox on your testing page. Do you want me to just correct the border on there?  16:29,7/9/2015

Re:
Hello.

Re:HBD
Thanks Snidget!!! I appreciate it!! ^___^  14:59,7/18/2015

Re:Username
Hi! ^___^ Yes, my username is in reference to my favorite Bankai (think of it like a weapon), Jakuhō Raikōben, from a manga series called Bleach.  16:28,7/23/2015

It's a great anime. You'll love it. ^___^  16:55,7/23/2015

Re: Text reduction
Hello, I'm nowhere an expert on this - I believe it's the Grammar Guild that deals with stuff like this, so you could throw a question their way instead - but when it comes to text reduction, generally, you try to leave out details that aren't really important to the article or as a whole. It also depends on what the article is about, if it's a fight page, you probably want to describe the fight in detail, while usual summaries don't need that. Plus, not every single panel or page need to be mentioned as long as it's not important and doesn't break the flow of the text, you don't want to remove something that's gonna be mentioned again several times throughout the rest of the article. So in general, rewrite sentences to make them simpler, leave out details that aren't needed.

I hope that helps. 17:19, July 26, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Bleach
No, I don't. I use to be a rollback user over there, but my real life started to get hectic so I had to choose between this wiki and the other wikis I used to edit on. >___<  17:26,7/26/2015

Re:Other wikis
Really? Cool! Where are you at in it right now?  23:40,7/27/2015

Cool! But you are in for an amazing ride with Bleach, and you haven't even gotten to the really good parts yet. ;-D  17:26,7/28/2015

You can do it. The story is really good so it's easy. ^___^ My suggestion though? Skip the filler arcs. Most people hate them. >_>  19:40,7/28/2015

Yeah, they are. And sometimes they are worth watching, but most of the time they are just annoying, XD.  19:39,7/30/2015

Re: Key of the starry sky article
Hi :) I just recently edited this article and removed everything that I thought was unnecessary. It was a huge arc and I don't think much more can be removed. Usually though we search for things that are repeated time and time again, or for character thoughts that don't really affect the overall plot. Same for battle scenes/events that go too much into detail and mention every single move of the characters, because that's what the fight pages are for. That's it more or less but often it also depends on the editor's judgement.

I hope I answered what you asked for! :) 15:40,8/2/2015

Re:Guilds
There's all kinds of jobs and all kinds of guilds. If you don't want anything to difficult, there's plenty of jobs for you. ^___^ With that being said, there isn't really a task necessary to join any guild. Although some guild masters prefer to see some consistent editing before they allow you to join the guild. It all depends on which guild you choose. 04:59,9/2/2015

Re:Hello
Hi! They aren't at the moment, but I'm working on a way to do it so bear with me. ^__^ 04:58,9/14/2015

Re:One Piece or Naruto
Definitely Naruto. One Piece is phenomenal, but there is just something that's really enchanting and interesting about the Naruto world. 00:38,10/4/2015

Re: A little piece of information missing
Hi there! Seeing that the piece is not referenced, we couldn't know how the sentence is supposed to go. It probably is "the Fairy Tail Mages", because he instructed Lucy, Wendy and Gajeel to do certain tasks when they went to Edolas. That article is in serious need of cleanup. 08:34,10/4/2015

The only thing I can think of is going to the naruto wiki and looking up each individual episode before you watch it to see if its a filler. I know it's not ideal, but that's the only method that comes to mind. >___< 03:59,10/9/2015

Re: Gifs
Hello. I use a video editor and photoshop to make gifs, and I don't know about any sites that can make a gif. You can check out this site on making gifs with photoshop. Hope this helps.

Re: Jellal and Erza sketch on profile page
Hi!!

Uhhh, it was an image put up by Mashima on his Twitter aaaaages ago, but I think it was from a convention. What I believe/remember is that Mashima was in Barcelona at an event and two cosplayers (dressed as Jellal and Erza) came to talk to him. He loved their costumes/the fact that the pair was being cosplayed, and as such, he sketched the two and posted it online (and then another funny image about the Jellal cosplayer having a girlfriend dressed as Hatsune Miku XD)

At least that's what I remember. It was a long time ago that the image was posted, so I might be wrong.

Message from a Friend
Hi, SnidgetGirl! I am also a fan of Harry Potter series but I stopped reading it. I finished reading the first two series and got idle in the middle of reading the Prisoner of Azkaban because of laziness though it's really an interesting one. By the way, would you mind helping me how to link my signature to myself when anybody else sees it? :) I also like to put Mavis Vermillion on my signature as well but don't know how to. Have a look at this.



But I want the transparency of it so only the main body is showing. XD.

I hope you read this message. :)

13:21, November 10, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, well. Looks like I did it. But my talk link doesn't direct to my talk page but rather to my profile. Hope you can help me. If not... it's alright. I won't force you. :)

Re:Stopping by to say Hello
Hey Snidget! Good talking to you again! How've you been? 01:22,12/16/2015

Re: Greetings
Hey there! Very nice of you to stop by to say hello - I appreciate it. Hope you have a very good day, and a merry christmas at that. Cheers.

Re:Greetings
Well hello to you as well! ^__^

I am quite honored that you took the time to check it out. m(_ _)m I'd be glad to give some suggestions. Tis what I do for a good part of my day >_> <_<. I would just like to hear your particular interests. I'd mention stuff that are generally uber popular, but you probably know those and may even avoid some with bad reputation. I can debunk hype/popular opinion and give you the run-down of some things that catch your eye, but only if you wish.

Anyways, these are what I would like to know. What is your preferred main genre? As in, slice-of-life, mecha, action, SciFi, dark fantasy, sports, comedy etc. If you do not have a particular preference, then perhaps some sub-genre? Interesting theme or concept? Just something with great animation and characterization? For example I may say "psychological series with engrossing characters and minimal tomfoolery", or maybe even "series with badass characters doing ridiculous stunts" or (one personal favourite for stress-relief) "an atmospheric slice-of-life with good blend of drama and comedy".

Depending on such factors, I can give you a list of things that may interest you. In addition, if you do not wish to read manga or LN, then I can give you anime that do not require you to touch on the source. You don't have to be too detailed, just a rough idea would do. It's worse if I recommend you something and you wish you didn't waste time on it. ^__^" I tend to look at the good side of an anime quite a bit; I find appeal even in stuff I hate to talk about or recommend, and this makes it easier to cater to particular interests. Just be warned that I do not recommend anything with utterly crap characterization and forced progression. :P

If it is easier for you, we can converse in the chat. :) As you can see, I type up a storm ( _ _) -- 06:37, January 8, 2016 (UTC)

Golden Time eh? Well you sure chose a tough one ;D I quite liked it, but even I was overwhelmed by it. It's a rare case of a LN adaptation finishing at the same time as the original. Honestly, I find it very difficult to recommend it to others due to the nature of the content. I mean.... how do you begin to describe Kyoko-san? XD I congratulate you on Bleach; anyone that is up-to-date on a long-running shounen anime deserves credit if they didn't watch weekly.

So fantasy, comedy, and some scifi are your current interests? By little bit, I'll take it that you don't want something too confusing, just entertaining. Also no tragedy, horror or super heavy plot-line, in other words, pleasant fantasy.

Off the top of my head,(without going to chat for details :P)

Also, this is yours right? Perhaps we can converse on MAL. -- 06:18, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

You're welcome :)

I also love Bleach for its concept. I even did a lecture on its theme to a friend of mine that asked why I do a particular 'reference' while interacting with people irl. Only problem is that Bleach has terrible writing, so it did not transition well from a complex supernatural story into a typical action shounen with many a brainless fight. Don't get me wrong, I am one of those that loves the Bleach anime and consider it better than Naruto Shippuden and One Piece anime. Even with the filler, I only despise the Kageroza arc and even that had some factors that really appealed to me even if it butchered the canon story. Plus I love the Fullbringer arc despite criticism as well. Also, while I said brainless fights, I did enjoy practically all of them(in the anime) as long as the fight was taken seriously and not as some wacky pseudo-erotic joke.

However, if you liked that aspect of Bleach, I point you to Noragami. I'm sure you've seen its praise around here. :P It is basically what Bleach would have been if it kept its base formula without trying to get too ahead of itself. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it. It has plenty of intrigue and complexity, with excellent characterization. It has themes that are kind of similar to Psycho Pass.

I see you are in the midst of Sword Art Online and Akatsuki no Yona. While the latter is too amazing to even require discussion XD, if you feel like expressing some 'thoughts' on SAO, please feel free to contact me(I sent you a request on MAL) since, as you can see, SAO is on my fav list despite all the hate it gets >_> I know the ins and outs of the series due to noting all the criticism through the ages(yes, I said that like I am old XP)

Have fun! :D -- 13:36, January 11, 2016 (UTC)

Re:Update and Something to do
Hey!! Glad to hear from you!!! And no, there's nothing in particular that I can think of. However, the guilds on the site are always in need of assistance. :3 06:09,2/19/2016

Re:
Hello, currently, the image guild isn't functioning, in general, the images are being handled by me and Wrath, along with other members such as Hamody or Nc. What we usually do is to replace the manga images by anime ones where necessary, as the new episode comes out every week (in .png format), upload manga images to be used in the articles (and eventually to be replaced by the japanese raw; in .png format as well), or upload animated .gifs of spells and other things that may look good in the articles if they are moving. Of course, you're always free to help with any of these, but keep our image policy in mind, as well as the quality that the images uploaded should have, otherwise things may get deleted and/or replaced.

Re: Akatsuki no Yona
Hi!

Hahaha, yep I certainly do read AnY and I've seen the anime. Seriously, I'm such a lost fangirl of the series by this stage that I like live off of it XD

I would recommend reading the manga through Titania Scans, who were the original scanlation team that handled the series. Their work is amazing; however, after chapter 105 was released the manga was licensed into English (to be released August this year) and they changed up their format and now no longer post publicly. That being said, the series is only on 120 chapters as of yesterday, so you won't be far behind. If you read what's there and like it and want to continue, message me again and I'll explain how ^__^

Most importantly though, have fun! AnY is a freakin' brilliant series :D

01:43, March 6, 2016 (UTC)

That's fine and you're totally welcome. I used to edit over on the AnY wiki and still watch over it in a way, but we've never had many active users (especially since the anime ended) so nothing ever really gets done. Still, I feel the need to make sure what is there is at least true and that there's no vandalism.

I'll wait for your message and enjoy! Shin-Ah is one of my favourite characters too X3

23:00, March 16, 2016 (UTC)

Re:Noragami
Glad to hear. ^__^ The manga is always a delight.

Also nice to see that you are strongly part of the AnY fandom now as well :D It is one of my favs after all. I'm currently reading it again(really slowly though due to simul-reading 3-4 other series <_<)

I haven't logged into MAL for a while. ( _ _) Been busy. I maintain a list for the wiki in a separate site since it is easier and doesn't require too much clicking and then transfer missing content into MAL when I log in. Since I don't watch all the anime I download(really wish that wasn't the case T^T) I feel a bit bad updating the MAL because I am not sure when I will actually get around to a series despite having it in a hard-drive. -- 16:58, March 14, 2016 (UTC)

I generally use HorribleSubs but the download links expire fast. I recommend you check their 'shows' section for batch downloads. If a series isn't done by HorribleSubs, I take it from Nyaa(which also has manga scans, light novel scans, TV dramas, anime movies etc.) I try for Bluray batches but it isn't really necessary if the series has nothing noteworthy to change and is perfectly fine in TV release format(or in the case of Nisekoi series, where bluray version is more censored than TV version for some weird reason). In series where gore is censored, it is best to get bluray versions. It takes up quite a bit of space though. I use a 2TB portable hard so as to not clog up the computer(and make sure I don't lose them XP).

A little thing about downloads is that newer anime come in 720p and are later upscaled to 1080p. So basically, there is no real difference if you go full-screen. 480p or 540p is next and older anime mainly come in that format. If space is an issue, 480p is the way, though it would probably be better to stream for higher quality. Otherwise I recommned 720p for series that aren't too great on the animation and/or quality department. 1080p takes longer. I used to get primarily 1080p but due to space and unpredictable internet issues, I've only been doing that for series that truly deserve such clarity. Be warned, the older the anime, the longer the download. I'm mostly going to be replacing the good series with physical copies once I get some income, so I don't know how long I need to keep ahold of particular titles. -- 17:47, March 14, 2016 (UTC)

Oh hello! Just put all your messages here. I advise you put a warning in it as to avoid people posting there just in case. :P Once you've archived your talk page, you can put the link here, most usually at the very top.
