Can you make me an admin please? Admin 19:03, 14 July 2010 (EDT)
- Hi! Why would you like to be an admin? Regular users can do about anything here. (Since I've been vandalized recently, I'm cautious about giving out permissions) User:Will 11:05, 16 July 2010 (EST)
- Is there any way you can change the default font on this wiki? Courier New looks horribly hideous when printed out. I see that wiki formatting does not apply when "<pre></pre>" is used, so I'll need your help here. Times New Roman, Arial, or Tahoma would be good. Can the editors choose the font?

- The main advantage of using courier is that it's a monospaced font, meaning that all the characters occupy the same space. It eases positioning of chords. When using a non-monospaced font, results may vary depending on the printer/browser. With courier, we're sure that the result will be the same every time, and that chords will be potitioned correctly. Actually, this font is quite standard on chords/tabs site, exaclty for this reason.

- So is Lucida Sans Typewriter, and IMO that looks somewhat better than Courier. 6 10:36, 17 July 2010 (EDT)

- Oh, and I'll pop out and get a new username, so don't be surprised.

Adminship
Because I've noticed that you aren't here every day, but I am on guard and check this wiki regularly. Also, I think more than just one active admin is probably suitable. Thanks for your consideration. 6 19:45, 21 July 2010 (EDT)
- I get your point, but what rights do you need that you don't already have as a normal user? Beside moving page and editing some special pages, being a sysop is not a big difference as a user.
