	Don't ask what the heck 'nk22' means and certainly not about that octopus!

Hello there humans, animals, robots, undefined creatures, aliens, bacteria, goo, somethings, objects, things, peculiarities, oddities and plants!

I'm Nathan, the person who suddenly added an horrible amount of tables to the 'Money' page and expanded the what if? page. I also made the largest userprofile of this wiki. Hope you like it.

I also seem to have been at the number 3 2 1 spot for most edits! Number one!!! Still can't believe it!

I edited 116 pages. Which is compared to the 3,478 articles around here, nothing. I also have made 336 edits overall. But hey, I at least have a score of 146

I make up 1 / 160,998 of all users on this wiki, which is something like 0.00062112572826992%. Or 1 / 119, which is the number of active users, so that's around 0.84033613445378%

The users who edited most today mostly include me. See for yourself if that's true

Cool page

I like your page. Cool octopus. Mikemk (talk) 05:54, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Nk22 (talk) 06:37, 20 April 2015 (UTC)Thanks!

Please don't change the BOT standards

Hi, my BOT dgbrtBOT overrides early pages if they don't meet the standards here. Please don't revert this when the page here is only a few minutes old. If some essential explains are missing please just add it again and do not change the layout. Thanks --Dgbrt (talk) 19:43, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

OK, thanks for letting me know. Das war sehr nett von dir (I speak German as well, eventhough I'm Dutch) -- Nk22 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

Dank u well (I'm not good in Dutch.) But please learn the proper wiki syntax like I'm showing you on my edit on your former reply here.

More in deep: My BOT was broken for many weeks but it works again and if some required further updates do not exist here it will kill the entire first upload. My BOT does not understand that, but it figures out that something is not posted as expected. Nevertheless I'm happy about your contributions and I'm saying again "Dank u well" (Dankeschön in German). And if you have any suggestions to enhance that BOT don't hesitate to send me a message there. --Dgbrt (talk) 21:35, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi, why did you litter on "User talk:Pacerier"?

Was testing out comments, sorry.
