Thief, I need a quick translation. If you really are Italian, then what's Italian for "The Sleeping Fox"? Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 05:53, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Il Fox di sonno. :D --THIEF 05:56, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Really? I was expecting a different sentence. La Volpe mentioned a different translation in Brotherhood. It was "La Volpe ________" Think you can fill that blank? --Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 05:59, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Whoops, sorry. I wasn't concentrating. I actually wrote 'Fox'. Meeh! The correct translation is "la volpe di sonno". Hope it helped. --THIEF 06:12, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

You're embarrasing me, Thief XD
War, the word I think you want is "addormentato". It means to be sleepy or in the act of sleep (also know as "sleeping"). "Di sonno" usually refers to the act itself, not to doing it. ;D -- D. Cello 11:02, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, that word sounds like what La Volpe said. Thanks Cello! :D Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 12:07, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Hey Thief, how about you come on msn some time? -- Master Sima Yi 08:37, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Sure. I only use it inside this wiki, I'll go on right now if you want? Although I am a bit busy. :P --THIEF 08:40, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

I am online right now. It'd be nice to get to know my fellow staff members a bit more, if you're not too busy. 'Cause if you are, then you musn't. I don't want to keep you from what you are busy with. -- Master Sima Yi 08:42, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

For some reason eBuddy is spitting out error messages, do you think we could use the IRC? Cheers --THIEF 08:51, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

You're using eBuddy, eh? I highly doubt you don't have msn installed on your computer, unless you have an Apple computer. Maybe you could look for it. Though I'll try to use the IRC first. If I can figure out how it works... -- Master Sima Yi 08:53, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I use eBuddy. My MSN application stuffed on my computer, one corrupted installation and not even a clean reg wipe or directory wipe and reinstall can fix it.. oO Thanks. :D --THIEF 08:55, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I had the same thing once on one of our computers. Though I installed the latest version some time later and it worked, surprisingly. I think I got the IRC working. -- Master Sima Yi 08:57, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Istruttorium

I would like to request application for the Istruttorium as I have reached nearly 600 edits that include expanding, reformatting and rephrasing multiple articles to be both grammatically correct and easy to read. As a writer, I am always particular about word choice and grammar, thus I think I can be helpful in reviewing and correcting any article.

I hope that's an acceptable pitch. Thanks very much for any consideration :) =GuardDog 06:49, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Sure! I agree, mate. You'll see your nom. in a second. Hope you get good results. --THIEF 06:56, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Thief! Remember all that merit thing you came up with? We could start using it, ya know? Do you have a place somewhere with all of them listed and etc? -- D. Cello 14:02, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Cello! Have ya been flogging too much alcohol or somethun? They're right here!! :D --THIEF 20:42, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Ay, I've been to busy with chicks and alcohol, mate. Not everybody lives a virtual life, you know? -- D. Cello 22:20, November 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yup all good, same here although I have an exceptional memory of minor things, now.. where's the vino? Oh.. how damn ironic. --THIEF 04:51, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry ]:

Hey Theif, sorry about the Launh Trailer spoiler D:

You don't have to be sorry, you didn't spoil anything for anyone, we know nothing of how Rodrigo will die. So Thief a epic trailer, right? ; ) AssassinRome 17:29, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

Except teh fact I wiat till the 19th, and America gets It 16th -.-

But yes, epic trailer and I think Theif thinks the same Ezio Ibn La Ahad 21:21, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

Haha, that's okay, mate :D, you log into this wiki expecting a few spoilers anyway, so no worries there. And yes, the trailer was pretty awesome, although they re-used material from other trailers. Which was a cheap move. :P Cheers! --THIEF 23:45, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

But all together it was agreat trailer. Damn the Americans getting it before Europe. AssassinRome 23:55, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

::..and damn the XBox and PS3 players for getting it two months before the PC community :(. --THIEF 23:58, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

I know, PC gamers at least deserve a special edition or confirmed release date. AssassinRome 00:02, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Thief, if you gonna be online for the next half hour, can you join me at MSN? I need some help with wiki right now and we need to comunciate in real time x.x -- D. Cello 01:15, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE: User page question

Hi ThiefAC. That lower right section is the Top pages section, which lists the top 6 most edited pages by the user. The six boxes seen on the test page will automatically display an image from the article it links to. If no image exists on the article, the beginning text of the article is displayed, which is what you see on that test page. JoePlay<staff /> (talk) 01:16, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Random

Hey Thief, what you did works, but typically I put the <choose> between the <center> tag so the transformer is not called repeatedly. See Template:Portal/Component/Quotes for an example. In the end it's just a matter of preference I suppose. Cheers and thanks for the compliments. -- tierrie talk contr 07:44, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Merits

Thief. Since you introduced the merits to D (and technically, me also :D) you should introduce this to the other staff members, admins included. Same way you introduced it to D. It's official now, right? So it's only normal that the other staff members make their own merits. --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 16:55, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, I'll tell everyone via the chamber. --THIEF 22:18, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

:Alright then. Just tell me when you've finished. --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 06:23, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:: I already did.. it's in the chamber right now.. :P --THIEF 06:57, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:Wait, that's a different place than the Chamber. Didn't know you guys replaced it. Well, since you, D and that portal guy are using it, might as well make it the new meeting place. LOL --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 07:12, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:: It IS the new meeting place. XD --THIEF 07:22, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:Yeah, No shit -_- A week away from the net can alienate you. Anyways, I think we should make no mention of the meeting place in the Istruttori page. So no one knows what we say....Agree or not? --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 07:26, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:: Yeah, I agree. I think that was one of the main rules anyway.. lol. --THIEF 07:28, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:: Actually, I don't think it matters because it is not an invisible forum board. Lol. --THIEF 07:37, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:Well, some anons might not notice. Oh yeah, where can people access the portal? Front page of the wiki? At the tabs up top? --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 07:42, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

::That portal page is going to replace the frontpage, i.e; it is the new frontpage. --THIEF 07:57, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:Then why hasn't it replaced the frontpage yet? Still working stuff out? --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 11:02, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

:: Yes.. links and other stuff. --THIEF

Rodrigo Borgia death

Hi Thief. From what we have seen in the Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood launch trailer Cesare, for some reason, got pissed off with his father and said "If I want you to die, you die!" and then atacked, do you actually think Cesare will kill Rodrigo? It could happen, no would see it coming. AssassinRome 15:16, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

Nah, I don't think so. Honestly, I know Ubisoft would want you to think that, but to be honest, it's unlikely. If he does kill the pope, Cesare would be jailed, murdered, jailraped and necrophiliraped. Hahahaha. :D What do you think? --THIEF 21:52, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

Help

Hi, I was wondering If you comment on my sandbox for the Glyphs page? I finally finished it today, and was looking for a second opinion. Thanks. --Gta-mysteries ^{◀RingADing▶} 07:12, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Sir, if you don't mind me saying, your new format is very, very awesome. Informative, well formatted, and very thorough. Great job sir! No wonder you're an admin in the GTA Wiki :D --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 10:28, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

What he said, good job, mate! I was watching your progess anyway and it was outstanding. :D --THIEF 10:38, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words guys. :)--Gta-mysteries ^{◀RingADing▶} 23:30, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hey James, I was intending to finish the memory projects before Brotherhood came out so we can move on to Brotherhood quickly, but due to personll reasons and due to the now confusing wiki I didn't have the time to continue, for the next 20 days I'll be in America agian to visit my old friends and family, so when i get back, or even when im there, ill try to finish the memories from AC2 :)Thanks for understanding. DanMan7308 15:52, November 16, 2010 (UTC) DanMan7308

Nice! Don't worry about it, mate. It's all good, family and friends are always more important than a wiki on the internet. Don't sweat it, everyone seems to have forgotten about it anyway, but it'll revive soon enough. :D Good luck in the US. --THIEF 20:25, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Images Problem

Dunno who ask this question so I hope it's not a problem to be with you.
This morning I updated several pictures on the Chapter 1 - Bartolomeo d'Alviano but they don't seem to been updated at all. I mean, we can see that the size and the dimensions are from the new pictures I sent but what you actually see is still the old image! Is there some kind of bug with updated in the images? Is it just my computer messing up with me? Should I just upload a new image instead of updating the old one? Sekuiya 13:52, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

By the way, another question, I'm in the process on changing most of the pictures to full ones/clean ones, but they're mostly in .jpg while some in the article are in .png. Is there any specific process or should I just upload a new one with the .jpg and replace in the page? Sekuiya 14:32, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Sometimes it takes a while for pictures to update. If it doesn't update itself after a while, then I think it's best to just upload the better version at a separate file. That's just me though. Thief's the image expert here. --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 16:00, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Yep, what War said. I suggest uploading those images with different filenames. It's a bug with Wikia. Sorry for the inconvenience! :( --THIEF 21:08, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

Friends

Hi, on your Friends bit on your page the bit about me is a bit outdated. Have you got Brotherhood yet? Campbell430 22:01, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

Uh. thanks.. I guess. And no, I don't have Brotherhood. I have to wait 'till March, graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh! --THIEF 22:04, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

Aaaaahhh.......PC User, Sucks to be you, I'm stroking my Limited Codex Edition box right now. :P Campbell430 22:05, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

Indeed. But atleast we get free DLCs and whatnot. --THIEF 22:15, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I haven't played mine yet, but can't wait........(maybe i'll do an all nighter).....But I won't spoil the story for you. Campbell430

Vandal blocking

Hey Thief, I usually go to War for these, but would you mind blocking a couple of vandals I found? These two: 193.142.216.1 and 207.245.236.60. Thanks :p =GuardDog 12:33, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

Got em. Sorry Thief. I couldn't resist :P --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 13:33, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

I thought you were inactive? XD But anyway, thanks War =GuardDog 13:43, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

:::Found some spare time. And No Problem :D --WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 14:33, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

I found a couple more vandals if you don't mind :) Here: 74.243.130.38 and 96.241.211.40. And on a side note, thanks for the Merit :) =GuardDog 07:51, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Consider them dead. And no problem! You deserve it (did you read what I had to say on the edit summary?). --THIEF 08:19, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

I didn't see it actually, just went to read it now XD And haha sorry for conflicting your edit I guess-- I really did edit the walkthrough in a huge chunk. Thanks again then~ =GuardDog 09:27, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Lol, I wasn't expecting an apology. Good job again! :D --THIEF 10:29, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

G'day Thief, an anon, 220.255.7.142, vandalised the Mercenary page. OZZY 13:51, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

If I might add to what Ozzy said, there were also vandalisms on the Templar and Liberation of Rome pages by two anons with similar IP addresses, at about the same time: 220.255.7.147 and 220.255.7.143. Thanks =GuardDog 14:02, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

:: Done. Thanks! :D --THIEF 23:13, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

87.181.74.35 J.h.jaraub 07:36, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Done. Thanks!

All I have to say is this, man... Veetor-Bot_2.0 <-- What the hell? -Assassin-of-Rayne- 00:53, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

:: It's a bot I'm programming, it does small tasks like change the i in Altaïr, etc.. Read it's userpage! It's very lonely. :P --THIEF 00:55, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

::: I did read the page before I plopped it here. XD But anyone can go around saying they're someone else, so I plopped it here to be safe. :P However isn't the use of a Bot contradictory to what the rest of us do? Sure, you just had it edit 20 or so pages in less than a minute, but hell. o.O -Assassin-of-Rayne- 00:58, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

::Nah, mate. It just fixes ascii characters and converts British spelling to American spelling, etc.. --THIEF 06:21, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

thief my i ask something

you didnt delete bartolomeo's axe did you im just trying to get started here so i figured the backpack and axe would be a good wayNighthawkassassin 14:30, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

Um.. It's right here . Although I did delete the backpack, that's a bit of a useless item. It's got no significance to the game, unlike the axe which you unlock (similar to Condittero War Hammer). No hard feelings, :(! Cheers, and good idea with creating the Bartolomeo's Axe article! Keep up the good work. --THIEF 20:35, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

Did I do decent on my walkthrough work?Nighthawkassassin 23:22, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah-- you did pretty okay :-). I finished it for you and rewrote some parts thoufgh, (although it still needs some formatting). --THIEF 04:42, November 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hey

Hey Thief, guess whats happening here in Scotland? It's snowing! Ahh....I love snow. In Brotherhood my memory data corrupted and I have to start again. : ( Exactly the same thing happened to ACII. May you're wait be Brotherhood be short. Peace. Campbell430 22:30, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Gee, that sucks! Oh well; it's a good enough game to replay again, right? Hope all is sorted out and dammit, you get snow?! Fuuuuuu! --THIEF 23:15, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Well, it is quite early this year, and yeah I don't mind replaying the missions but I got Rome to 100%! Thats what bugs me: all the side missions I completed. Campbell430 12:45, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

Thief, what is this about? oO (purpose of that page) -- D. Cello 11:05, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, it's just a box-of-links for people using the special Oasis skin, see this page? If you look at the left of it, it will display that message. All I did was edit some of the links, since the older version talked about just one game and not all three. :P --THIEF 23:35, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Your Bot

Thief, your bot is messing up some pages. Yeah, he's fixing Altaïr's i's in some articles, but its doing more than that. It's changing the picture names, (sample: from Altair Apple to Altaïr Apple) meaning its creating dead images. Since its your bot and I don't know shit about programming, how'll you resolve it? Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 04:16, November 28, 2010 (UTC)3

Don't worry, I'll make it move the image files too, then. --58.179.156.144 06:15, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

That was me, :P --THIEF 06:53, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

I thought you had auto log-in set in preferences. WTH? :D Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 07:08, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

When I activated the bot my cookies were reset, and no. Not real cookies. --THIEF 07:15, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Ah. Understood. :D Jacques le Blanc^{Reception Area} 07:32, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

what the hell here is my version of that pic

Nighthawkassassin 14:42, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

stop it!

Thief you edit my profile pic one more time and I swear oh what can i do... Nighthawkassassin 01:14, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Hahaha, take it easy pal. Just a joke, since YOU keep doing the same to all other REAL pictures on this wiki, like overwriting a perfectly good picture of Ezio with some shitty-blurred thing; it actually appeared on real articles. Next time name your pictures different and don't overwrite other images, I was just giving you a taste of your own medicine. :P --THIEF 05:16, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

it will be noted i havent done that in a while Nighthawkassassin 15:54, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, Thief, let the rookie alone XD
If he do it again, just block him (but also revert the picture =P) -- D. Cello 18:01, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

I have made a few good pages i mean seriously though leave my pic the way it is 74.4.242.26 18:37, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Brotherhood

I have asked this time and time again, but people, in real life as well, can't seem to give clear answer. So I will ask you Thief, do you think Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is better than the previous game, Assassin's Creed II? AssassinRome 22:29, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

I play on the PC.. --THIEF 23:35, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
