 * 2) Decent I guess, always talking about his "new" project for the week. Munny 03:40, 8 March 2007 (CST)
 * 3) As a Ranger, he seems to agree with my stances on Ranger skills often. This shows excellent sense and judgement. :) Arshay Duskbrow 01:59, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Aha, you said "Ranger" and "Stances"! I get it! *proudly displays sense and judgement* --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 02:07, 28 August 2007 (CDT)

Unfavored:
 * 1) Removed all the nice userboxes. Including mine! :( [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 02:11, 26 February 2007 (CST)
 * Hey! I knew it would be safe to remove those userboxes, because they live on in your userspace. :D Seriously though, I should probably add those back in... I miss 'em... (well, I didn't but I do now) {Jioruji Derako} 03:00, 26 February 2007 (CST)
 * This is your fault now, you know. I dug up all my old userboxes. Now I'm going to make a userbox blaming you for finding all my old userboxes. {Jioruji Derako} 03:19, 26 February 2007 (CST)
 * Entropy, are you changing your vote now or removing it? just thought i would say something nothing else to do -- "Wings" 03:24, 26 February 2007 (CST)
 * Hehe, I didn't do anything. :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 22:08, 26 February 2007 (CST)
 * I kinda wanted the userboxes back anyway, you just dredged up memories. I still get to blame you though. {Jioruji Derako} 23:08, 26 February 2007 (CST)

Meh

What's In A Name?
I don't feel like looking to see if this question has been asked before. Anyway, so what does your name mean, Jioruji? What's so Derako about you? And yes, I know, curiosity killed the cat, but as you can see, I'm no cat. - <font color="Black">Skakid9090 00:23, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Or are you?
 * ...hmm, you're right. Not a cat. Anyway...
 * "Jioruji" (Gee-oh-rue-gee) is the Japanese pronunciation of "George", my real name. "Derako" (dur-ah-ko) is the Japanese pronunciation of "Draco", which is roughly "Dragon" in Latin. Not only was I born in the Year of the Dragon, but I'm named after Saint George, who slew a Dragon. And I love dragons. So there you have it. (the pronunciations I provided are my own, and not necessarily the correct pronunciations of those words.) --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 00:53, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * you're not quite right with your name then. george -> jouji, dragon -> doragon (the first o not pronounced) or if you wanna use draco -> dorakou. they're not very exact with translating names. the pope is not "'benedikuto" but instead "be'neediku" (' marks stress). an air conditioner becomes an "ea kon". at least that's what my japanese teacher says (she is japanese and teaches japanese). - Y0_ich_halt [[Image:Y0_ich_halt_logo.jpg|15px]] contribs 07:33, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Ah, yes, "Doragon" is also the Japanese word for "Dragon". I got all my pronunciations from some random website a long time ago... I highly doubt they're accurate, but accuracy's not what I was going for anyways. :D
 * "Air Conditioner" can also be "Eakondishona-", according to my dictionary. "Eakon" or "Ea Kon" is the more common translation though, I think. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 17:42, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * i always go for accuracy... somtimes a little bit too much... ^^ well, i've never heard "derako" as a synonym for draco, as "e" is always pronounced. translating a consonant without vocal is usually done with a -u syllabla afaik. and if that -u syllable is an exeption (fu, tsu), the -o syllable is used, as those are the "weakest" vocals. "i" is also a "weak" one, which leaves only A and E as "strong" vocals. (see latin lyric, similar rules there) - Y0_ich_halt [[Image:Y0_ich_halt_logo.jpg|15px]] contribs 18:55, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * The pronunciation was done via a program, so I can see how it works... Draco. "Dr" isn't in the Japanese language normally, as there's no single letters generally... so "Der" instead. "Ra" works. "Co" becomes "Ko". And bam! Simple yet effective, Draco to Derako. (More or less.) --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 21:23, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
 * d would be either 'du' or 'di' but instead of 'di' the alphabet has 'chi' and instead of 'du' only 'tsu'. chi wouldn't fit at all here, tsu neither, so 'do' holds place. no example coming to mind right now, but i've never heard 'de' hold place for d. programs make mistakes, expecially tranlation programs or similar ones. but who cares? it's only a wiki. - Y0_ich_halt [[Image:Y0_ich_halt_logo.jpg|15px]] contribs 08:21, 30 June 2007 (CDT)
 * The name's transcended it's roots long ago... I use it everywhere. I doesn't even mean "George" anymore, hehe. It's just a unique name that's never in use. ANYWHERE. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 18:55, 30 June 2007 (CDT)

Related Skill Removal
You just removed ALOT of related skills from many articles and added a link to related articles that classify skills. I thought that the purpose of the related skills was to compare two skills that are remarkable similar. Please explain this sudden change.--Gigathrash 01:27, 18 August 2007 (CDT)
 * As I understand it, the QR supersedes the related skills; for example, Wild Blow would have Wild Strike and Wild Throw in the related skills section, but the fact that there's a stance removal QR makes that redundant. While Rodgort's Invocation and Searing Flames would classify as related skills (both do very similar effects), most of what I went through was only tied together by a single, rather common effect (unblockable). By the logic of listing Wild Strike, Shattering Assault, and Unblockable Throw in related skills, you would, logically, need to add every other unblockable skill as well.
 * But what I did was simply a wide sweep of a lot of skills; if someone were to go through the articles seperately, it would make sense to re-add some of those skills to related skills, most likely... I personally think Wild Strike, Wild Blow, and Wild Throw should be listed together, because they all have the same two effects. Every time that happens they get reverted, but I think you're right on the fact that, related skills is meant to compare skills that are remarkably similar...
 * If you think some of those skills should be re-added, go right ahead. I'll most likely personally work on stuff like th Wilds and Golden Fox Strike>Fox Fangs>Nine Tail Strike, sometime. I'll be the first to admit to any mistakes I made when adding QRs tonight; take a look at the page history on Magehunter Strike for a good example. :P --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 01:40, 18 August 2007 (CDT)

New Signature testing:
I figure, it's probably a good thing to have a link to my talk page from my sig. And I might as well make my sig cooler while I'm at it. Let's see if I can manage to fit all the coding...

Current Signature: -- <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.>

Future Signature: -- <font color="#237d00">Ĵĩôřũĵĩ Đēŗāķō.> <font color="#237d00">.cнаt^

After double-checking GW:SIGN and the signature, it all seems to be in order. No more then three lines of coding, under 800x600 resolution; a link to user and/or talk page; and nothing that stands out too glaringly. Any complaints, post 'em away. -- <font color="#237d00">Jioruji Derako.> 06:37, 28 August 2007 (CDT) (last time many of you will see this signature!)

One more test; does it work in practice?

-- <font color="#237d00">Ĵĩôřũĵĩ Đēŗāķō.> <font color="#237d00">.cнаt^

random comment after signature to check for unclosed tags.

Previous comment resulted in four lines of coding... small spacing fix, take two.
