RE: Questions about the WBO - BurningSands - Jun. 02, 2020
Hey there! Im not much of an editor on the Beyblade wiki anymore, but Im planning to become active again and hopefully expand stub pages and fix some other content
Will there be any new bits in the future for wiki editors? I have almost 1K article edits from my active period in 2018-2019. I think I heard that there were previously bits for contributing to the wiki, but were reserved for powerusers

One does not simply remove Blader DJ from power without paying the ultimate sacrifice.

It's an idea that has crossed our minds, but we have nothing to share at this current time. The larger issue to address is how detached the Wiki tends to be from the WBO, so we'd like to address that before looking into incentivising editing.

Does that last part explain why GT parts haven't been updated?
RE: Questions about the WBO - ~Mana~ - Jun. 03, 2020
Partially. The Wiki and WBO teams are rather detached from each other at times, and that leads to situations where drafts aren't reviewed, discussions are lacking etc. There's a few things that need to be ironed out that haven't been before, and probably the entire approach towards Wiki drafting and editing needs to change.
There's also a lot to consider with the current approach of writing performance-based articles, as these don't tend to age well and you'll find that entire performance sections of articles need to be completely rewritten every few months because the meta switches. It's just not sustainable, so we're looking at how best we can address this and put our efforts into long-term article writeups rather than extremely replacable ones.
But it's a larger topic that I'm sure we'll have internally and rectify in due time, haha.

I think a ton of people aren't active from what I see ngl.

A tonne? Blader DJ aside, all of our team have logged in within the past three days, haha.

[split] Start Of A New Era. - Mr.Valkyrie - Jun. 06, 2020
are we still going to have tournaments, because of the virus ??

This Netherlands tournament thread is the wrong thread to ask WBO general questions like that. I'm going to move it to a more appropriate thread.
Yes, tournaments will resume, when it's safe to do so. None in June, but possibly in July we might start opening it up again, if
1) Local laws and regulations are being followed
2) Cases are declining/under control in the region an event is being proposed
3) Safety is the main priority.

When I try to go to the Build Me a Combo thread, it says that I don't have permission to access it. Why? I haven't gotten suspended/banned, and I verified my account.

He's been a user for over 3 years, if it was over that it would've happened sooner.
Edit: Turns out I was wrong.

It's the username he probably did not want to change it and thought it was funny.

CB, I told you, very specifically, to stop stalking everything the staff does on WBO. And you keep doing this. Nothing I say seems to change the problematic behavior. What is it going to take, warning percentage, before you stop this?
Not every ban requires a public explanation, you're not always going to get them.
The "McNuckFuggets" username is problematic, as some of you have realized. Imagine having to call out the name several times at a tournament with younger bladers attending. Now imagine you accidentally mispronounce it.
Why wasn't he forced to change it 3 years ago, I don't know. Probably whoever was doing the enforcement of the rudeness rules either didn't realize this issue or thought it was funny, even though it was a rules violation back then too. Every single post he made violated the rudeness rules by username. The second he made a recent post, I banned him. This is not the first time I have banned users based on username. I'm hoping it will be the last.
He is able to make a new account or PM us with what he wants the account name changed to, at which point we can change it and unban him.
It is not funny or clever to sneak profanity into a username. It is pitiable.

Unbanned from what, Metal Fight Limited? That's the only format I can see where it's banned. And if I had to guess, never. I know nothing about the Libra wheel, but it took me a few seconds of looking on Beywiki and the rules to figure out why it was banned. https://beyblade.fandom.com/wiki/Libra_DF145BS It's a heavy and good defense type. It is too good for Metal Fight Limited and it will probably remain banned in that format unless you can prove, through thorough testing on a BB-10 beystadium, that it doesn't overpower most other good MFL combos.
It is not banned in Metal Fight Standard or Zero-G.
Next time, please be specific. Making other people do research just because you don't want to is rude.
RE: Questions about the WBO - BurningSands - Jun. 17, 2020
Hey there! Came back with a question that has been floating around in my head for quite awhile. I hope this does not constitute as rude or nosy, etc. Its out of genuine curiosity
Being here for quite some time now, I am assuming that staff are capable of looking into the PM systems? Meaning, they know what users post/talk about/etc
Again, just a curious question. I have no plans to do anything faulty once an answer is given

If they do, well, that seems sort of like an invasion of privacy.
