== KBAGs ==
 
 
Hello, Liamchat! I noticed that you've been adding KBAGs to the key pages. I certainly appreciate the addition of such information, but just listing KBAGs without mentioning which file they're for isn't exactly helpful. Would you mind mentioning which file each KBAG is for? --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 21:39, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:i added them because i don't have those devices and i think it may help people get the key's if i add them however the exact is

== Ban liamchat request ==
 
There is a petition going on to ban liamchat from this wiki. I'm not sure how serious it is and nobody can vote for him there. So please comment here, pro and contra, preferrably with arguments. I think five users more against him with serious arguments would be enough. --[[User:Http|http]] 22:05, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:??? Why would you ban him? I havn't seen anything wrong he has done... Please give more info... --[[User:Balloonhead66|Balloonhead66]] 22:15, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::I don't understand it ether but I do help by filling in the missing keys and check the Current ones --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 22:45, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:::Just to make it clear: Nobody will be banned just because others don't like someone. For a ban we need a clear majority of people with good arguments. --[[User:Http|http]] 22:52, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:::Please give evidence of deleting / filling in wrong data. Single mistakes can happen. And his problems on IRC are unrelated to this wiki. --[[User:Http|http]] 21:55, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:I'm someone who wants him banned. My name is Fike here on the net. He constantly spams IRC networks with all types of shit... I had quite a job getting rid of him from Sauriks server, but I did it. He alsdo takes other peoples nicks, for instance "cj"'s nick was taken on sauriks server. cj couldn't ghost it, because services weren't online. And I've heard from numerous people he adds inaccurate information here on the wiki. My 2 cents. --[[User:Fike|Fike]] 20:59, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

===stolen keys===
 
can you give evidence of which keys are the stolen keys because i use [[PwnPie]] to grab my keys and only greysyntax can say i stole his keys --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 17:28, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
===useless/incorrect keys===
 
i check every key i post and use the kbag's as evidence to prove it works --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 17:28, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Where? I personally have tested almost all VFDecrypt keys he has posted and they are correct --[[User:Balloonhead66|Balloonhead66]] 00:23, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
===Conclusions===
 
I can see a lot of haters and some problems. I don't think we should ban him for what he has done. What seems to be proven for me is that he wants to make himself important. He is clearly no hacker and hasn't contributed any real value in this wiki. But this applies to many others also (maybe also to me?)
 
 
I think this should be a warning to him: Please be very careful with all your next edits, especially page additions. Better ask on the talk page if others agree with you before you edit. For keys pages use the standard template and avoid multiple edits. Also, please watch what you do outside of this wiki (tools, IRC, etc). I won't judge you for that, but others do.
 
 
For the haters: Please tell him friendly what he does wrong. And/or tell me and I'll tell it to him. I could forbid him to change any keys pages for example or to make more than one edit per day or whatever. Depending on how big the problem is. And it is clear that if he doesn't obey any given rules what I can do.
 
 
Let's forgive him all his mistakes of the past and treat him as a new user for now. And remember to tell me if it doesn't work. So I'll close this discussion for now and I will treat this case as solved, expecting adult, friendly behavior from all sides.
 
 
We can delete and/or archive this discussion in a while. --[[User:Http|http]] 00:40, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Well said, mate! :) --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 00:57, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
== Edit Wars ==
 
 
* Opinion - "a belief or judgment that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty." [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/opinion]
 
 
One doesn't need evidence to state an opinion. For example, I can safely go around saying, "Cookies taste good," without proof and no one will bash me for it. THEREFORE, the entries in the above table should NOT be edited by anyone other than their author, as that is their opinion. You can't make me think that red isn't a good color anymore than I can make you enjoy using hairspray.
 
 
My point is, it's someone's opinion and you can't change it.
 
 
Therefore, </edit-war> --[[User:Dra1nerdrake|dra1nerdrake]] 00:45, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:I like your thinking. I agree 100%
 
:P.S: I object your "Cookies taste good" since I'm always right ;P
 
:--[[User:Ifish|Ifish]] 00:59, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::Thank you. ~drake
 
:::also can we remove the mentioning of greysyntax he never said i stole his keys --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 15:39, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
== Template for keys ==
 
 
Hi liamchat! It's nice if you post new keys pages. But could you use the standard format (template), I mean like [[JasperVail 8C134 (iPhone_3GS)]], instead of [http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=JasperVail_8C148_%28iPod_touch_2G%29&oldid=13271 this new page from you]? Preferrably without the KBAGs (until all agreed that we want them). This way you save us some reformatting work and you'll have less haters. Thanks! --[[User:Http|http]] 23:35, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:ok when I grab the keys it reads the restore.plist and places them in the order that apple use however I do think i can change that also I will remove the kbag field --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 00:29, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::Not only the order, also the titles, etc. --[[User:Http|http]]
