Hi there!
Welcome to our Fallout wiki and thank you for your contributions! I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements.

A little help to get you started:
 * Recent changes lets you see what other people are editing right this minute and where you can help. You can also check our community portal for things to do.
 * If you haven't already, create a user page about yourself. If you do, we'll be able to know you better as a member of our community.
 * If you have questions, you can ask in our forums, join the live chat in our IRC channel or post a message on my talk page.
 * The help pages can help you learn how to edit and how use the wiki tools. The Vault's policies and guidelines can help you with putting those tools to good use and getting up to speed with our editing customs.

I'm glad to have you here and look forward to working with you!

Hello
You might want to click on some of the links provided above. Especially this one. --Anon undefined 01:48, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Again, please read our editing guidelines before making any more edits, just look at the links in the welcome message above. --Anon undefined 21:24, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Game Guide
Because all of the game guides aren't a literal part of the game, all of the mistakes go on the Fallout 3 Official Game Guide page. Nitty Tok. 01:00, April 25, 2010 (UTC)

Bugs page
Hi.
 * First of all, if you look at this version of the bugs page - after you had made your edits - you will see that you (I am sure unintentionally) broke the formatting of the page. When I undid your first entries, I left an edit summary, which you can read on the history tab. The more recent entries were in a group, so I used the rollback function to undo them all at once. This function does not allow an edit summary.
 * Secondly, below is the text of your main contribution. There are a couple reasons why I removed this from the bugs page. One - it's not really a bug. Collision with objects causes damage. The bug is the clipping issue, which causes objects to move around sometimes violently. And that bug is covered already on the page. Two - Compare the main FO3 bugs page to the add-on bugs pages, and you will see that the add-on bugs pages are unruly and unhelpful because of the amount of long descriptions, repeated information, etc., etc. The main FO3 bugs page has been consolidated and is much more helpful as it is now. Adding things like the paragraph below moves the page back toward a state of harder-to-read.


 * "Whenever a non-pre-rendered object hits an NPC or the player with enough force, it causes damage. This basically means that ramming some item like a shoppign cart or oil drum/barrel into an NPC (or the player) will cause them to take damage. This glitch can actually kill many NPCs if repeated. In accordance with the NPC and Creature body parts stretching glitch, sometimes, when a dead body or pre-set skeleton starts to "spazz out" (the skeleton must be stepped on), they may accidentally hit the player with incredible speed and hurt him/her. This is sometimes evident when the palyer walks on top of a pre-set skeleton and it makes a violent twitch, hitting the player; you should notice a loud grunt or the sound of suppressed blows, and your health should decrease. Despite that this glitch poses a problem, it can be somewhat useful, as it allwos you to kill NPC without Karma loss or the turning of any NPCs in the area hostile (unless they were hostile before you did this)! To dod this, simply hold up a random object between you and your target, then walk into it, ramming them with the item. This will work for any object that can be picked up and moved around, including weapons, armor, aid, non-takeable items (like the shopping cart), etc. For smaller items, specifically goods that can go into your inventory, it is better to hold up the item and shoot it with your weapon so it hits the NPC (like a bottle of whiskey or a pool ball). For larger items, it's better to run into the item so as to gain maximum momentum."

Please become more familiar with the bugs page and try to make any further edits fit the organization and style and content of the page. Thank you.--Gothemasticator 14:08, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Exploit
Sure. If you word it concisely, something like: Collisions with objects cause damage to NPCs, so you can use the twitching and flying clipping items to cause damage and even death to NPCs without incurring karma loss.

I'm sure you can write it better than that, but just a sentence or two. No need to go on at length. Cheers.--Gothemasticator 01:12, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

More on bugs

 * I moved all the exploits to the Fallout 3 exploits page. No need to duplicate info on both articles.
 * We don't need to cover general advice on troubleshooting hardware. Our aim is to cover the game itself.
 * The add-on deletion bug is not necessarily a bug in the game. Also, that would need some discussion and confirmation before being added anywhere. I'm quite familiar with several online FO3 communities, and that is not a commonly experienced situation.
 * Unidentified shape generation - this is the same as the stretching body parts bug.

Cheers. --Gothemasticator 06:44, June 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * The unindentified shapes is indeed the same bug as the stretchy body parts. You are encountering a bug that has been in this game engine for a while. Oblivion players experience it, too.
 * The DLC thing - go ahead and start a forum page about it, but, as I said above, it is not a bug in the game, it is certainly not common, and I don't think there's a need for this wiki to cover it.
 * As far as other deletions go, did you not see that I actually moved the exploit content over to the exploit page, as linked to in my above post?
 * The Fallout 3 bugs page is the result of known and confirmed bugs. It is also the result of good organization and clear wording. If you want to add to it, get some discussion going first. Get your bugs confirmed by other users. And then work on wording them simply. Thank you.--Gothemasticator 15:26, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Fawkes
The reason your contest on the Fawkes page was removed, and I would have removed it myself had I seen it first, was because it's entirely out of place in an article page. Feel free to recreate it in the forum area. Kris  mailbox 05:05, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Quantum
Quite frankly, it doesn't belong in the article. We aren't interested in what the fans do about or with the games, with the notable exceptions being Duck and Cover, which is a part of this specific site's history, and No Mutants Allowed, because it's both the largest Fallout fansite, and is referenced in FOBOS and Tactics.

Scan your PC
Run a virus scan on your PC ASAP. On at least two recent edits you made, something added what appeared to be an attempt to add malicious script code to the page. The wiki software didn't run it as a script, but I've seen this before a few weeks ago with someone else's edits - similar code - and they had no clue what caused it. Once you've scanned your PC, post here and I or another admin will remove the block. -- Kris mailbox 05:03, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oi. Did you switch editors yet? You're still inserting code. Nitty Tok. 00:35, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Mama Dolce's "glitch"
I'm not saying it is neccesarily a glitch, I'm saying what you contributed was already in the article.

It may have been a developer oversight, but it may be a little joke as well, seeing as they put solid brick walls behind them.

I can see what you mean. Megaton Settler 23:56, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Add at the end of the bug sentence, and at the start of the bug sentence, add the console the bug was on e.g. After a few days, the verify time will be overdue and will be removed if not verified by 2-3 users. If you want to verify one, add (verifies: ). Tezzla Cannon 17:11, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
