Megatron joke
The monsters in MMPR always started out human-sized. Then, at some point, Rita throws her staff down from the Moon shouting "Make my monster grow!". The staff lands in the ground and energy shoots out of it, making the monster enormous. The laser effects around Megatron's cannon in that picture look a lot like the staff. Here is a YouTube clip of it:. Honestly, it's not a big deal to me, but the old joke doesn't really make any sense in the first place. It seems to be a premature ejaculation joke to go along with his cannon firing, but it's not like there's anybody else in the picture for the innuendo to be complete. I think the observation our anonymous editor made about the resemblance to the staff is actually pretty clever. A rare instance of somebody changing a joke for the better, IMO. --Steve-o 16:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Huzzah! I have a talk page now! Anyway, thanks for clearing it up... I didn't get the ressemblance of Bandora's staff to the laser blast effects of Megatron's cannons... At least I understood the previous joke, wasn't all that funny but it made sense without the explanation. -Detour 16:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Re:
The user talk page should now be blocked globally. Is it custom to keep all user talk pages on this wiki, even if they're purely vandalism? GHe (Talk) 21:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, since blocked users can still write on their talk pages, the admins here from what I've seen have deemed it better to lock them then just deleting them and having them come back... --Detour 21:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It's possible to create a local blacklist to block creation of deleted pages locally. I'm not sure if one already exists here, but if not, the admins could easily create one if they're interested. I find that one of the downsides to having an existing page protected is that it eventually gets indexed into search engines, and that's not a good thing to have.
