See https://www.flerf.info/index.php/How_to_add_a_Flerf#copy_and_paste_template on how you could have added this flerf. And view the sources of other pages to get a feeling on how this wiki functions. Direct use of HTML isn't the way in almost any case.

Hope you will stick around and enjoy some collaboration. :)

Thank you (not sure if I am even doing this reply correctly).

I simply followed How to add a flerf from main page, and it said mandatory: use the infobox template. I think I got confused. We run to our own beat down under......ha ah ha.

Thank you for the kind advice. Cheers

I have added some info, can you spare a moment to check please. Thank you.

Hi Mr Pounder. To use talk pages you can sign your comments with 4 tildes. I like the joke "I am not gay but I once fucked a man who was." I guess it is the same joke. Ttguy (talk) 05:53, 27 May 2026 (EDT)

Aftias email

Hi SourPounder, I got your email this time.

It seems like the page can only be accessed when you click on a redirect. Something about that seems to trick the server into displaying the page contents. But when you refresh it goes back to displaying the forbidden message.

I'm not exactly sure either what Toon means by "new platform". Maybe the hosting server has been changed/upgraded (for more storage/higher traffic or something like that).

I don't know how this is causing problems with Afitas' page though. Nothing else seems to be affected.

Hopefully we'll find out whats causing the problem. If nothing works, we could always create a new page with a slightly different name (like Mike Aftias) and copy the contents to there.

Hey Washcarso, great stuff.

Oh yeah, I tried the refresh, very weird indeed. Yeah, not 100% sure what he meant, but I am finding it slower, in all aspects.

Yeah, good call, create a new page as you suggested and that gives us time to find the flaw.

Thank you for your time and all you do. Cheers.

UPDATE: I tried to edit the page to copy source and create a new page, but i get 403, so will leave that to you to create a new page. Thank you.

Yeah, we would need to decode the HTML on my sandbox page to format it as wiki markup. Based on what Toon said on his stream it might be best to wait until we know whats causing the issue. He said Aftias "complained" (not sure to whom). We need to be sure the new page won't have the same issues. Hopefully Toon can offer some more specific details. Quite frustrating, because it is a brilliant page! Washcarso (talk) 08:53, 28 September 2026 (EDT)

Thank you Washcarso. It is an absolute banger of a page. I think there is something else going on, as Toon said it should sort itself out soon. I guess give it a day or 2 and we can go from there. Again, it is a brilliant page and has to stay. I will let Toon know. Also, looks like Restricted has crated another sock to mess with stuff... I tried to remove the account but I dont have perms. Not asking for them, just saying. Cheers.

Sounds good. We'll give it a few days. And yeah I've been watching Restricted's new edits. Looks like he lost his one chance to discuss his "gravity free calculator" in good faith. We'll clean up his mess once he's blocked and hopefully page protection can be implemented. Washcarso (talk) 09:34, 28 September 2026 (EDT)
