House Robots weights
I didn't really want to just take it down because I didn't want to offend you, but I'm afraid there's a bit of a problem with your weights graph: Sir Killalot didn't weigh 200kg as far as I'm aware, it was 520kg, even in the guides (which weren't particularly accurate) it wasn't listed as that little.

 * Oh good, another potential voter, just what I need as Round 2 of my Unsung Heroes Heat A could do with more votes before I proceed to the Heat Final.--Nononsensecapeesh (talk) 12:09, April 18, 2015 (UTC)
 * I'd proceed now, just keep the tournament ticking regularly, get into a routine so it doesn't just suddenly die away. The battles do have decisive votes, so there is no problem with moving on. J  im laa  d4   3 (talk) 13:39, April 18, 2015 (UTC)

Categorising Images
I've noticed that when you have been categorising many images, but you've actually been putting some of them in the wrong categories, so I've had to undo those edits and put them in the correct categories.

For example, you've added several pictures of robots in The Pits to the category "The Pits". This category is actually for pages on the forum "The Pits", not The Pits seen on the actual show. Images of robots in The Pits belong in the "Behind The Scenes" category.

Similarly, you've added several images to the category "Robots that failed to qualify for any wars". This category is for articles on robots that failed to qualify, such as Black Knight and Typhoon (Series 3). We have a separate category for images of robots like that, entitled "Images of Robots that failed to qualify for any wars". In future, please put any images of

I don't mean to be rude. I realise you haven't been on the wiki as long as I have, but I felt I should tell you the correct place to put these images.

Write-Ups
Hey there. Whilst I appriciate you helping to provide write-ups of the International Championship, I had to go over it because there were a lot of problems with it.

The first and most important one is that the write-ups were all in the present tense. If you'll look through any write-ups of battles, you'll see that they're all in the past tense (I.E. Grabbed instead of Grabs). This is actually an established rule, so can we ask that you follow it, please?

Also, I needed to edit out a few redundant segments, and move a picture that was right in the middle of a sentence. I advise you try and be a little more careful next time. Oh, and it's is NOT the same as its, it means "it is". "Kat 3 fired it is axe" would make no sense.

I hope you'll take these into consideration. Once again, thanks for the effort. CrashBash (talk) 13:19, April 13, 2015 (UTC)

Nuts
I'm marking the picture of Nuts for deletion, the team it came from didn't compete in the TV show and doesn't have a page. If Robot Wars does return to TV and Nuts competes, it'll get a page but at the moment it doesn't. Sam (BAZINGA) 20:31, April 28, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah I should really put it on the Roaming Robots Wiki : / Talking of which are you on the Roaming robots wiki? If not it could do with a lot of help. http://roamingrobots.wikia.com/wiki/Roaming_Robots_Wiki

I would like to say thank you for featuring one of my robot history videos :) Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 14:26, April 30, 2015 (UTC)

Interesting Images
Just wondering where you got those two pictures of The Necromancer you uploaded. They are good quality photos, being a much better angle than the one we previously had. I couldn't find them on the Necromancer website, and I was wondering if that site might have any more pictures of the Series 4 qualifiers. Drop Zone mk2 (talk) 20:48, August 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * I got it from the same website that I found the Gahra and Dynamite at the S5 Qualifiers image.

Here it is:http://www.fogma.co.uk/gallery Diotoir the son of nemesis (talk) 07:43, August 17, 2015 (UTC)

Speaking of images, I was wondering where you got the picture of Grannies Revenge and Mini Morg at the Series 6 qualifiers, as I was wondering if that site might have any more images of the Series 6 qualifiers. Oh, and where did you get that great design sketch of Mr Psycho? Drop Zone mk2 (talk) 16:01, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * I uploaded some pics of the Series 6 qualifiers ages ago. Said pics was photos of pictures in the second version of the magazine, maybe he blew up the same pics just to get Mini Morg, Granny's Revenge 2 and Firestorm (which I took a photo of but didn't upload it). Sam (BAZINGA) 17:06, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * As Looney said I got it from the Robot Wars Magazine and the Robot Wars club Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 18:49, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * Thought you did, I recognised some of the pics (the Stinger is from the heat write up they did isn't it?), good to see someone get some decent pics taken from the magazines. Sam (BAZINGA) 18:13, August 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * I could get some pictures of the battles to add to pages, hopefully they would quite high in quality. Diotoir the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 20:15, August 22, 2015 (UTC)

The recent images I've uploaded are quite dark in tone, dunno what you all think but I must say thanks Drop Zone for getting a clearer image for WBC :)  Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 18:19, August 23, 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, by the way, I was just wondering how many issues of the Magazine you have. I only have Issue 6 of the Second Robot Wars Magazine, as well as four issues of Robot Wars club magazine. Drop Zone mk2 (talk) 12:30, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
 * I use to have them all but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I've only got three remaining, Issue 3,4,5. I got a Series 6 and 7 UK and International Program and a separate programme from October 2002 (Funfact: I saw Heat A of S6 live as it was flimed when I was really young as well as the Series 7 Allstars) and only four RW club manuals.

Dirty Sanchez wiki
On Saturday I created a new wiki called the Dirty Sanchez wiki (see:http://dirty-sanchez.wikia.com/wiki/Dirty_Sanchez_Wikia) based on the stunt show by MTV. I may not be on the wiki as much for some time just to get the Dirty Sanchez wiki going but I will still take part in the Extreme audited wars but no major edits for now.By the way you may be seeing a user called Blacker Baron, that's just an alt account for myself. I'm quite strange in the way that I like to sort things out in separate things say for example two pencil cases I need have one for just colouring pens while the other would has just pencils, I'm a sorting out freak haha. Long story short won't be around unless it's for Audited extreme, hope you don't mind. Diotoir the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 14:48, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Images
Hi, I saw you uploaded a pic of T-rex, Tractor and Mars Attack, could you get a better picture of Hawk Eye as well as pictures for these pages? Sam (BAZINGA) 19:47, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah I might when I have time Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 14:29, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

Arena Forums
I'd just like to say thanks for all your help on the Arena forums. I try to update everything, but as I am very busy with my studying and my job, sometimes I don't have time to update every page that needs editing or I forget. Thanks for helping keep it up to date.

Robot Wars 2016 debate
Hate to get involved, but you might want to back off from the whole Dystopia thing. Evidently this and the entire 2016 reboot is a very sensitive issue. CrashBash (talk) 13:41, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Just seen what's happening around the wiki, what the hell is happening? I will leave it now because it seems everything's going topsy turvy. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 16:21, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * It is a disturbing turn of events if what we're being told is true. Christophee (talk) 16:29, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't necessarily understand 100% what's going on but it seems dreadful, hopefully it's just a false alarm but if it isn't then this is serious. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 16:33, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Basically, we could have potentially screwed over the reboot. CrashBash (talk) 16:34, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay that may be a bit over board, I mean the BBC have already paid to get this show on the road, plus they can't simply get everything ready just for it to fall apart in the last second. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 16:38, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Err, they can. I've seen it happen before, numerous times. Admittedly mostly with video games, but some TV shows too. It is a thing. CrashBash (talk) 16:40, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I dunno, I think it might be a bit of a over stretch, but, I guess it's best to be safe and silent for now, after all we don't wanna take any huge risks. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 16:43, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Tend to think the same, the guy who informed us may be just playing it safe, but that of course is the thing to do. Thing is though, what about the many posts on the public FB group, Reddit etc about qualification people have made? Obvs they weren't all by wiki users but they could do with deleting or something couldn't they! Prodworthy (talk) 16:51, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I just don't get why so many roboteers would say something they weren't allowed to say if they knew what the consequences would be. Christophee (talk) 16:53, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Small print, with big consequences. The ORW lists have already gone down from roboteers warnings, which are quite serious. Note: can i rename this topic? Garfie489 17:10, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Well that's stupid then. If the BBC were going to do that, why didn't they give the roboteers PROPER warning, rather than simply do "small print"? Evidently very few people saw it. CrashBash (talk) 17:13, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree that's ridiculous! Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 17:16, February 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Now, if it was "you can't talk about whether you've qualified for the series, then I could understand that. But not simply applying to qualify. CrashBash (talk) 17:25, February 6, 2016 (UTC)

was it you who put the userbox on my page?
Its nothing bad and if it was you then thanks a bunch!!Im planning on making some for myself but so far I have only done that im from Birmingham and that I don't hate typhoon.--Botomatic1000 (talk) 20:01, February 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Diotoir, I know you were being nice, and it looks like Botomatic doesn't mind, but you're not really supposed to add things to other people's user pages. If you want to suggest userboxes or anything else, you should do it on that user's talk page instead. Christophee (talk) 20:25, February 17, 2016 (UTC)

Was it diotoir though? I don't mind who it was because it was very friendly--Botomatic1000 (talk) 20:34, February 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can see from the page history. I could tell you didn't mind, so no harm done on this occasion, but things shouldn't be added to other people's user pages unless they agree to it beforehand. Christophee (talk) 20:39, February 17, 2016 (UTC)

Nothing too important just a query
I see that on the robot wars group a while ago you posted about destruct a bubble an how you liked him a lot. I have one question for you is he your favourite. p.s if this isn't allowed on here then feel free to delete.--Botomatic1000 (talk) 19:40, February 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Nah, It's my favourite jokebot but certainly not in my top ten favourite robots of all time (maybe top fifteen).

thanks for the response mind if I ask about your opinions on guzunderbot :). Once again if too silly then feel free to delete.--Botomatic1000 (talk) 18:45, February 24, 2016 (UTC)

Could I help out?
I see your putting an anti spoiler on a bunch of pages could I help with it is it just any competitor page?--Botomatic1000 (talk) 17:42, March 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * Leave the pages that we know have not qualified, featherweights,middleweights or not entering but for the rest yes. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 17:46, March 6, 2016 (UTC)

Ok so could I do guzunderbot? lol I honestly don't know too many that didn't qualify.--Botomatic1000 (talk) 17:53, March 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll give you a clue to those that definately need the header, only look here if you're okay with spoilers just search #robotwars in ether Twitter or Instagram Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 17:51, March 6, 2016 (UTC)

Its been taken down.--Botomatic1000 (talk) 17:53, March 6, 2016 (UTC)
