==Admin==
== Inactivity ==
I apologize for my inactivity on the wiki. I kind of stopped playing the game, so I don't think about it and forget about the wiki. So I'm sorry, I'll try to check in every now and then otherwise the wiki looks in much better shape before I came. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 03:30, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 
==Discussion==
Sure, you're now an admin.--[[User:RCT Fan|Route 55]] 18:07, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
 
I've found it difficult to keep up with the many issues brought up in the discussion pages of the 100+ pages we have here, so I think it would be a good idea if we had one main page where we could discuss anything, from individual pages, to general editing. The forum function really hasn't worked, so I think we should just create a page for general discussion.
== Wiki fate ==
Hello, my name is [[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] and I was wondering if you were planning on becoming active again on this wiki? I have some major plans I would like to carry out but I need the powers of a sysop and crat to fulfill them. If you are interested in helping out because let me know on my talk as I need some assistance with your admin powers. If you do not respond to this message I will be making an adoption request for the wiki. Thank you, --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 23:17, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 
If this sounds good, then let me know. I'm also asking [[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] about this.
:Glad to hear from you, I have already sent in a request so we will see what happens. If you and [[User:Ezporsche]] stick around I will be more than happy to give you bureaucrat rights as long as we all can agree on each other and work as a team. I hope to see you active again. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 04:33, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 
--[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 21:39, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
:Also, I sent you an email, I don't know if you got that or not, but it pretty much says the same thing. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 04:35, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 
:In that case, we should start using the Community Portal more often. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 17:11, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
== Re: Thanks ==
Great to hear, and I guess you can add that page about The Amazing Earl as long as you can provide good info. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 23:09, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 
===Award===
== Re: Ride Template ==
Thanks for the award, Matt! [[User:Rps eagleforChrist|Rps eagleforChrist]] 23:01, September 7, 2009 (UTC)
Sounds like a great idea, all pages need to have a sort of uniform which will create a clean, unified look. So go ahead with this, I'm still waiting on a few things before I start editing, trying to get the logo added to the site, expect that to happen today or tomorrow for sure. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 11:43, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 
Well, soon I'll start a new job, and the time I can spend here after that is in doubt. [[User:Rps eagleforChrist|Rps eagleforChrist]] 03:42, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
== New Power ==
Hey, haven't talk to you since all the updates have taken place, I hope that you like the logo and skin. Got one of the best to make them for us. Apparently my request went through but I didn't get the bureaucrat rights but only admin. =( but all is well because you got them. I think you asked me if I needed anything else, I don't know but I was thinking of bringing on [[User:Ezporsche]] as an Admin, he seems very helpful but hasn't been to active lately, your choice, and I was wondering if you wanted to give me 'crat rights as well. I know these are two big decisions but I don't have a problem either way or what you chose to do. Also, great job on the ride templates, they look good but the images are somewhat of a minor problem, I will go through and fix them when I get the chance. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 03:13, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 
:Thanks for the new award! --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 05:44, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
== Clean up ==
::I don't think I've intentionally tried to build edits; it's just that with a developing wiki, there's just so much stuff to add... and the edits just start stacking up. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 05:47, December 5, 2009 (UTC)
I was looking at what RCT Fan had done and how he ran the site, I hope that's not the way you want to continue you doing business. Wikis are exactly fan sites or business sites, etc but encyclopedias so try to stick with that guideline and not the way this wiki has been run in the past (look how it ended up). Also, you should protect your user page either sysop only or autoconfirmed, chances are you will be attacked down the road. So, I will be doing some clean up of the previous sysop getting rid of all the business, etc. pages Wikia owns wikis not a user or crat. Keep up the outstanding work, --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 03:18, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 
==Re: History Pictures==
Thanks; there was quite a shortage of good pictures, so I figured that it would make the main RCT3 article look nicer. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 01:35, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
The wiki is about the RollerCoaster Tycoon series, and I feel that we should add anything to the wiki about that so its a go on adding those pages. Like I have be saying lately, we are an enclopedia about RCT and I plan on deleting anything that appears not to be related or are just links to other fansites, I don't mind having on big page for other fansites but having mutliple pages for other fansites on the wiki is wrong. So I am going to delete those, please help with that. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 19:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
:By the way, did you make [[User:Rps eagleforChrist|Rps eagleforChrist]] an admin? It says that he has the admin certificate on his page, but he hasn't showed up on the admin list for user rights. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 01:45, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
::No, it didn't. While you're at it, how about we make [[User:Chozo01|Chozo01]] an admin too, because both of them have helped quite a bit lately. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 21:18, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
 
==Scenario and Ride Exchange==
== Re: Should We? ==
Hey, I thought I'd let you know that the Wikia staff approved my request for unblocking the uploading of scenario and ride files, so now we've got our own file exchange! Take a look if you're not busy with work/finals/etc. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 06:07, January 28, 2010 (UTC)
I always enjoy earning awareds on any wiki, the only catch is that people will begin to think its a game and people will make small, useless edits in order to gain a large amount of edits (like captalizing the S in Stub). As long as you can explain that it isn't a game and to not get serious over it, it should be a very beneficial motivator and enjoyable side of the wiki. So, you got my vote. --[[User:I Ross I|I Ross I]] 01:30, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 
__NOTOC__
==Hi==
 
Hello!
Well, I'm [[User:ezporsche|ezporsche]], I don't have anything in particular that I would like you to do. Seeing as the wiki is fairly empty, any bits of information that you can pull from the game would be useful, like the actual in-game descriptions.
 
== Inactivity (2)==
__NOTOC__
 
Hey, it's me, just popping in to see what's been going on. Sorry that I haven't been able to help lately, but school takes up a lot of time, and sometimes I have to use time on other things. Thanks for keeping this place alive while the rest of us have been gone. --[[User:Ezporsche|Ezporsche]] 04:49, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 
== Signed up ==
 
Ok, I've signed up and also i have both of the OSes, but not a 7 (I just wonder if it works with 7...)
 
Also i made a 10.91(extreme) intensity, but i cant find the screenshot directory
 
== Style Guide / Manual of Style? ==
 
Does this Wiki have a manual of style or some sort of style guide; rules or guidelines for editors, to ensure that articles have a similar flow and continuity? I've noticed that quite a few articles seem mashed together, with very little consideration for related articles, and a concrete guide may help alleviate that. Just a thought! [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]] 21:48, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
: I second this. Most of the pages regarding similar topics, like the stalls and shops for example, seem to be somewhat different each time. Not sure how to implement this, as most people editing the pages would probably end up doing it their way anyway, but maybe some templates, manuals (as described above) or standard pages could help out?
: Edit: as I've seen the work of LostInRiverview on the manual, I have to say I'm impressed. Never mind my statement above.

==Thanks!==
 
Yeah, I had noticed the inactivity. That's the unfortunate effect of not having a game update in five years. I still play the classic game (or RCT2 on occasion) but I'm not a big fan of RCT3. The main thing I've been trying to do is to standardize everything - a daunting task even on a wiki with (relatively) few articles such as this one. That's sort of what I'm shooting for with the Manual of Style; make it easier for an editor to determine a style to use universally, and to use that style.
 
Thanks for making me an admin, I'll try to stop by pretty frequently to continue working on my ideas. See you around!
 
:Wow, I forgot to sign. Congrats to me. --[[User:LostInRiverview|Patrick (LostInRiverview)]]<small> ([[User_talk:LostInRiverview|talk]])([[User_blog:LostInRiverview|blog]])</small> 10:19, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
 
== Contribution Award ==
 
Thank you for editing my user page, I find it a great honour to recieve the contribution award. Not that it's the reason I help the Wiki out, which is just because I wanted to help out seeing as to how much work still has to be done, but still. Just nice to know the work doesn't go unrecognised. As always, my user page needs expanding, so I guess, I'll get back to work.

== Um HAI! ==

== OK! ==
 
I'm hoping to give a makeover to the wiki! [[User:Musical of Corey|Musical of Corey]] 13:16, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 
Thanks again for granting me admin rights. May I get myself a certificate for the user page? Thought I should ask instead of just getting one. --[[User:Hadesengel|Hadesengel]] 15:05, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

==Adminship for [[User:Figmeister|Figmeister]]==
Hello, Matt 20 1. I would like to be an admin because I am thoroughly motivated to improve this wiki. I have been working on a great many pages, and I won't stop until all the articles are complete. I also have posted scenarios. I currently have more than 360 edits, and it is rising by the day, because I try to complete an article every night before bed. I also have no record of any offense at all, have been here since the beginning of August, 2014, which is about 7 months, and I am civil.
 
I am [[User:Figmeister|Figmeister]]. If you want to talk to me, please leave a comment on my [[User_talk:Figmeister|talk page.]] 18:35, April 5, 2015 (UTC)
