Can you make me an admin please? Admin 19:03, 14 July 2010 (EDT)
- Hi! Why would you like to be an admin? Regular users can do about anything here. (Since I've been vandalized recently, I'm cautious about giving out permissions) User:Will 11:05, 16 July 2010 (EST)
- Is there any way you can change the default font on this wiki? Courier New looks horribly hideous when printed out. I see that wiki formatting does not apply when "<pre></pre>" is used, so I'll need your help here. Times New Roman, Arial, or Tahoma would be good. Can the editors choose the font?
