== Age limit ==

Is there an age limit for the bulletin board forums? --[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 19:46, October 22, 2015 (EDT)
:Hi! Unfortunately due to U.S. law, we do have to make the age requirement 13 years old. Sorry about that! --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 08:46, October 23, 2015 (EDT)

But why does the wiki have no age limit? I don't understand!

--[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 17:55, October 24, 2015 (EDT)
:The wiki doesn't have an age requirement because we don't directly ask for any personal information from minors, whereas the nature of a forum encourages the sharing of personal information and requires an email address to sign up. The wiki signup page terms of agreement (included below) state that those under 13 cannot provide a real name or email address for their account, which allows us to remain complaint with US Law while still allowing minors to create accounts.

Why does the forum require email but not wiki?

--[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 19:30, October 25, 2015 (EDT)
:Posting on the forum is a more social environment, and as such, involves a certain level of accountability. Collecting an email address allows us to increase the barrier of registration to prevent spam accounts and allow us to keep the site family friendly. The wiki is more of a collaborative environment than a social one, is a lot easier to monitor, and has more staff members. A while back it was decided that we would not require emails on the wiki even though it could lead to an increase in spam, in order to allow younger users like yourself to register under the above terms. If you truly want to create an account on the forums, I can provide you with a form which your parents would need to fill out and fax in to us. However, this is probably more trouble than it's worth since the forums really aren't very active thse days anyway. --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 20:33, October 25, 2015 (EDT)

:Hiya! Sorry for arriving 8 years late to the party, but your 13 y/o rule is in compliance with U.S. law, which does indicate that you have to be 13. But is it only to comply those? Because in some European countries, laws like the one recently passed in France stipulate that you have to be 15 or older for that. So I guess you'd have to ask for a specific country to be in copliance with (almost) all those types of law?

== Sockpuppets ==

What do you do when you find out that someone created a sock puppet account used to pretend to be someone else?

--[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 18:24, October 26, 2015 (EDT)
:We generally block the sockpuppet account and post an informal reminder or an official warning on sockpuppeting depending on the severity of it. The "sockpuppet" can technically be a sibling, however, so we give benefit of the doubt before acting upon the sockpuppet and the original accounts. {{User:Mario/Sig}} 20:50, October 26, 2015 (EDT)

== miiverse ==

Do you have a Miiverse?

--[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 16:57, November 22, 2015 (EST)

::Since we don't have any info about renaming on the wiki, including the "six month rule", do you think we should add this to one of our Nookipedia namespace pages? If you'd like, I could create a thread on the forums about it. Cheers, [[User:Red Snapper|<span style="font-family:Verdana;color:darkred">Red</span>]] [[User talk:Red Snapper|<span style="font-family:Verdana;color:red">(talk)</span>]] [[File:Red snapper (Wild World).gif|20px]] 12:56, April 29, 2016 (EDT)
:::Yes. I definitely think we should add this somewhere, perhaps on [[NP:Policy]]? '''TabuuandRover''' - I didn't realize that this policy was not clearly outlined on the wiki itself, and so I'll allow a second username change to Princess Peach if you still want to go through with it. :) --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 13:26, April 29, 2016 (EDT)
::::I'd go with adding a 13th header about user renames on [[NP:Policy]], while possibly mentioning it on [[NP:Users]] and/or [[NP:Bureaucrats]]. The only time I've seen the "six month rule" being used or mentioned is in your rename summaries.

Hmm.. I have been renamed on other NIWA accounts, also on Mario Wiki they allow only 2 renames per year, I got renamed 3 days after I first was there, then about a month, then they said that I couldn't get a rename until April of next year, and plus on top of that, im becoming inactive from October 2nd until the first of January. I will be touring China during that time before returning to Israel. So im sorry for the inconvenience this causes. P.S. make sure nobody gets that username. [[User:TabuuandRover|TabuuandRover]] ([[User talk:TabuuandRover|talk]]) 21:24, April 29, 2016 (EDT)
:Each NIWA Wiki is managed independently, so the policies of other wikis do not necessarily carry over to Nookipedia. If you would like to have your name changed to Princess Peach, just let me know and I'd be happy to do it. --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 23:23, April 29, 2016 (EDT)

== Question about forum ==

When you set a forum post to staff only, only staff members can view it. But if I become patroller, will I be able to look at staff-only posts or do I need an account on the forum, which I don't have?

--[[User:Pachisu123|Pachisu123]] ([[User talk:Pachisu123|talk]]) 21:13, May 8, 2016 (EDT)
:You will be able to access the staff-only forum once you're promoted. Of course, you need an account in the forum first so we can give you the permission to view the forums. {{User:Mario/Sig}} 21:15, May 8, 2016 (EDT)
:This is correct, but to be honest there's really not a whole lot going on in the staff forums. --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 15:30, May 9, 2016 (EDT)

== A question ==

Despite my withdraw, is okay for me to promote somebody else for staff or promote a staff member that is lower than a bureaucrat to a higher level? [[File:Mario und Prinzessin Peach.jpg|40px]] Princess Peach [[File:Bulborb Buffet.jpg|40px]] 14:22, May 12, 2016 (EDT)
:Only [[NP:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]] and [[NP:Directors|directors]] can promote someone directly, but you can nominate someone else to be a staff member. You must get their permission, though.

:E3 is over but I wanted to leave it up because the linked page still outlines some of the upcoming games.

== Add new right to autoconfirmed users ==

Howdy Jake! I was going to create a new Userbox here, but it's from an external source. Can you please add allow autocomfirmed users. Many NIWA wikis and even our Wikia rival does that. I don't want our rival to have advantage of us. Also it would be great if we had posts from Miiverse about New Leaf that's helpful. Thanks! [[File:Mario und Prinzessin Peach.jpg|40px]] [[User:Princess Peach|Princess Peach]] [[File:Bulborb Buffet.jpg|40px]] 12:32, August 3, 2016 (EDT)
:I'm not sure I understand what right you are requesting. Which userbox are you trying to create? You should be able to copy over the wikicode from the other site (with attribution) and modify it to work on our site. --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 15:35, August 4, 2016 (EDT)
It's like from a URL. and im autoconfirmed the right that im requesting oto Upload files from URLS and our Wikia rival does that, so does many NIWA wikis. I think you can do it. And for Userboxes I was going to do one with Dave Schwartz. It's from Weather.com some of them images there inspired me to create a few new categories and userboxes since I know stuff about categories I know what to do. And uploading an image from a URL is much less complicated.

== ZCJigglypuff ==

<s>Hey there Jake! I have a complaint on ZCJigglypuff. The complaint is that the person deleted my custom made userbox and the image along with it. If you can restore them that will be great. And I created the userbox like a patroller did with the piano. I think that's harmful and I was going to let you have the Userbox before ZCJigglypuff deleted it. Thanks!

== Quick Question ==

Just asking <small>or maybe not :]</small> what rank (if any) do you have to be to nominate someone to any rank?

:Anyone can nominate anyone for any position (with the nominee’s permission first), however by convention people are only nominated for the next highest position as those nominations are more likely to be successful.

== Help, I know this might be better suited asking somewhere else ==

Hello, I would like to know what "Final nookphone" means on villager pages, I know I am supposed to ask on the discord but I cannot enter the discord because I am underage. Thank you, [[User:LibbyOcto|LibbyOcto]] ([[User talk:LibbyOcto|talk]]) 11:39, March 15, 2023 (EDT)
:Hey there! Normally this would be explained on the [[NookPhone]] page, and I do have an outline for this information in my [[User:HylianAngel/Sandbox#Associated NookPhone Cases|sandbox]]. The only reason this information hasn't been implemented yet is because it will take a lot of time/manpower to actually finish creating the related table that showcases all of the villager NookPhone designs. I can still explain it here for you.

:The {{I|customizable phone case kit|NH}} item allows the player to customize their phone to one of eight default customization patterns: Green, Red, Pink, Black, White, Blue, Yellow, and Beige. They can also use it to customize their phone into one of any of the default [[List of official designs#Sable's designs|Sable designs]]. The player does not immediately learn these designs, but they slowly collect them from Sable if they talk to her each day after befriending her. These Sable designs can also be used to customize certain furniture items, not just their NookPhone.

:Villagers wandering around outside will randomly take out their phone to browse it before putting it away, and sometimes they bring it out to take a photo of certain furniture placed outside. (You can also force them to take out their phone at Photopia via the "Take a Picture" Reaction at Photopia.)

:Like the customizable phone case kit, villager phones will initially be one of the eight default customization patterns. If the player has not learned any Sable designs, villagers will continue to use the default customization patterns. However, once the player learns the Sable design category, then villagers of that applicable category will upgrade their NookPhone. For example, if a villager's "final NookPhone" comes from the "Retro" category, they will upgrade their phone as soon as the player learns the "Retro" category of Sable designs. There are some villagers/special characters who have no upgraded NookPhone though, and they just continue using one of the eight default customization patterns forever.

:There's another layer of complexity. I was watching video footage of my friend design a villager's house request in {{HHP|short|nolink}}, a villager he did not have in his town. My friend owns all Sable patterns. However, during the house completion sequence, where they show the villager enjoying the house, this villager actually pulled out a NookPhone using one of the eight default customization patterns. So the villager was actually using their "initial NookPhone" rather than their "final NookPhone." Whether this is because of a special ruleset involving {{HHP|short|nolink}} itself, or because it is a villager who does not live in my friend's town, I'm not entirely sure.

:Also, all special characters are assigned an "initial NookPhone" that is one of the eight default customization patterns, but this might actually be purely internal. No one has conducted research in their early game to report if special characters actually use these or not. The constraints would be someone who hasn't befriend Sable and then summons the special characters at Photopia to check their NookPhones via the "Take a Picture" Reaction, but almost all players have all Sable patterns already. Either way, articles list the "initial NookPhone" data anyways, since it's interesting information and the colors usually relate to the special character somehow. (Like how Celeste's "initial NookPhone" is "Pink" to match her pink bow. Though again, this might be purely placeholder data that is unused, but no one really knows for sure.)

== Question about PC App Icon 1.0.0.png origin ==

Hello! I've recently been looking into the history of [[Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp/Gallery#App_icons|Pocket Camp's app icons]] and I was wondering something about this image: [[:File:PC App Icon 1.0.0.png]]. In my digging I've only encountered a link to the full-square (i.e. without rounded corners) 1,024 × 1,024 version of this image in the page source of the Pocket Camp page in the App Store from 2017/2018 (using the Wayback Machine). However, in 2021 on the [[:File:PC App Icon 1.0.0.png]] page the source got listed as 'Nintendo of America', and I read in Discord that in October 2017 you got a press package from the press site. I also noticed that some gaming news sites used the image as well in their articles around that time. So out of curiosity I was wondering if you happen to remember if this image was included in that press package or if you got it somewhere else.

Thanks! --[[User:Bassieeee|Bassieeee]] ([[User talk:Bassieeee|talk]]) 10:29, July 12, 2023 (EDT)

== A rare Database Error notice ==

Hi Jake. A few days ago I was surveying on villagers articles around here (I remembered clicking like, 3-5 pages or so simultaneously that time), and when I viewed one of them, specifically Twiggy's, for some reason I got the prompt of Database Error, even though when I refreshed the page, the prompt is gone. And this is my first time encountering such error in Nookipedia, too (not counting stuffs during the backup period). I was wondering if this error is minor thing, and is the server alright and all. I did bring this up to [[User talk:Drago#Database error?|Drago]] here hours after that error, but he told me you might know something about it. Can you explain?
