Revision as of 08:38, 16 September 2016

Ugh, the seedy underside of having a publically editable wiki is that you run the risk of idiots vandalizing it with ads and such.

Thanks for the rollback, Arkanor, and good eye on catching it.

No problem. This site is vastly too useful to let folks mess it up. - Arkenor

Unlock?

IMO, You have enough editors to warrant unlocking almost every page. Those users can handle fixing up any vandalized pages.  :)

The possible exception is the front page. But I've also heard some good arguments for opening that page, too.

Thanks!

Help with Search

The Search page mentions going to the Help page for help with Searching but there is no help on the Help:Contents page. ---Torin23 01:57, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Forum Ban appeal page

I noticed there is no place on cohtitan and it's related sites for ban appeals. Could it be possible to make such a page somewhere? I am currently perma-banned from the forum by Aggelakis, so I had to resort to coming here to the discussion tab on a help page and hope someone sees it. Thanks when you do.

Appeals of that nature can be directed to the Titan admin staff via email: admins@cohtitan.com. -- Sekoia (talk) 03:51, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
