On this page, you may communicate with Randy, or as his User Page suggests, tell him a joke.

==Thanks==

Hey, just wanted to say thanks for reverting all that vandalism last night. I went through and blocked the IPs that he was using, but he edits from many different IP addresses, so it's hard to block them all. I'm sure he'll get tired of his pathetic little game soon, and then we won't have to worry about him for a while.--[[User:Jonpro|Jonpro]] 07:25, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
:Your welcome. I'm sorry I had to go to sleep so soon last night, but I had plans this morning that I didn't want to be interfered with. So I apologize if he did any more damage on the LGPedia. Love, [[User:-R-|-R-]] 15:06, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

== Heyy ==

Hey. I'm Silver (as you probably know). Glad to see that I'm not the only lonelycracker on here my age. [[User:SilverBULLETx3|  '''â¢Silverâ¢'''  ]] [[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|Contribs]] 12:43, 17 July 2007 (CDT)
:I know, everytime I try to tell my friends about LG15, they're just like "who's that??" and I try to like tell them [[The Story So Far...|the story so far]] but they just get bored after I say "so Bree's best friend is Daniel." Haha. [[User:SilverBULLETx3|  '''â¢Silverâ¢'''  ]] [[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|Contribs]] 10:03, 18 July 2007 (CDT)
::Haha, I'll tell my friends about KateModern, they'll watch the [[Fight and Flight|first video]], get bored, watch the [[I like Pigeons!|second video]], and ask, "Okay, Kevin (that's my real name), where's this big scary Order?" as if Kate's going to talk about the Order on her first video blog. :) [[User:SilverBULLETx3|  '''â¢Silverâ¢'''  ]] [[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|Contribs]] 17:28, 18 July 2007 (CDT)
:::Be sure to tell me what they say. Haha. Just out of curiosity, how did you get into LG15? For me, I just stumbled upon Bree's Grillz video, and she had about 12 videos posted. I thought, hey, why not watch them? So I just kept watching them, the plot advanced, and now I'm hooked to the LGPedia because I used to edit Wikipedia. I <3 wikis.

:::Haha, I was telling the story to my friend Nick (who is partially interested, but doesn't watch the videos - just gets info from me) and he obviously wasn't paying attention because I was watching [[The Cowboy]] at his house, and I said, "No, Jonas! Don't go, that cowboy works for OpAphid!" But he just said, "Aphid? I thought we were talking about religions, not insects - and who's Jonas?" :) I've dealt him some lonelycrack several times, but he always ends up losing it. LOL.

::I'm at my grandma's house right now, and NO videos load good on their computer (they have dial-up - how stupid!), so I have to wait until I get home. That's why I always read transcripts over here...I'm here a lot. Btw, do your parents like get mad at you if you watch KM or LG15? I always have to wait until my parents are gone, because they're always like "What's that?!? Don't watch that!"

:And my parents used to be okay with it, but then Jonas just [[The Perfect Beach|had to pull out a gun]]! And then everyone was screaming (in the video) and my mom came downstairs and she was just like "What are you watching?" and I'm like "I don't know I just found it on YouTube" and she said "Well then why does the top of the page say 'A Tribute to Lonely Girl... 15?'" and I just say... "It redirected me to that link..." Gosh, any ideas on what to say to my parents so that I can start watching videos again? :) [[User:SilverBULLETx3|  '''â¢Silverâ¢'''  ]] [[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|Contribs]] 18:03, 18 July 2007 (CDT)
Hahah! I just about died with laughter when I read that. Can you wait like a half hour? I have to go haul lumber for my dad (he's building a fence over here). But I'll probably be on all night - I'm sleeping over here, and the computer = downstairs and I'm sleeping on the downstairs couch, so why not edit the LGPedia all night? LOL.

:Hey. I'm back from hauling 20 freaking pieces of wood for my dad. :) He told me I could take a break, and then haul 6 more pieces, but why would I do that? Anyways, I have to check out your videos sometime. My [[YouTube|YT]] is aerinthia, but in the first video, I have glasses (which I don't anymore, just to let you know). You still here?

::Guess not. I had to carry 2 more pieces, and then I just collapsed on the yard. My dad said, "Dude, are you finished?" I just said "4 more." He said, "Well, get to it."

==Teaser==
Hey Randy, just want to say I saw your Season II Teaser and I thought you did a great job!--[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 03:39, 4 August 2007 (CDT)

== Template:Spoiler ==

The spoiler-template is kind of nice, and I'm in the process of adding it to [[LGPedia:Templates]] and pushing up the graphics a little (they exceed the height on my display), but I wanted to point out the fact that ''there's a giant "no further spoiler warnings" notice on the main page'' ;)

Anyway, I figure, even if we don't use it on LG15/KM pages due to the aforementioned general notice, we could still use it on all the fan-stuff, e.g. Maddison Atkins, and it'll pop up on one or two LG15 pages anyway.

Nice work overall. Especially with the design.

'''Tariq Bhartti''' is a character in the [[KateModern]] web series. He lived in East London and is a West Ham fan, but has recently moved to India with his mother.

==Background==
===Dating Kate===
[[Image:KM - 0013 -- HighmaintanceBird.JPG|thumb|left|Tariq and Kate argue.]]
At the beginning of the series, Tariq started a business with his friend, [[Gavin]]. He was dating [[Kate]], but [[Lovers Quarrel|was hurt]] when he found out that she [[A Friendly Lie|lied about her name]], and becomes even [[Lovers Quarrel|more upset]] when he finds out that she visited her [[Tim|Ex]]. His distrust of Kate increased after she claimed to have [[I can't remember anything!|lost her memory]]. Tariq didn't believe her, and Kate ended up turning to [[Steve]] for help. Tariq became jealous of Steve, and suspicious of his intentions, and [[Tariq Attack|attacked him]]. This led Kate to break things off.

The two reconciled after he came to her rescue at [[Carnaby Street, Saturday 18th August, 10AM|Carnaby Street]], where Steve brought Kate to "recover her lost memories." Kate was hurt and confused after she found out that the [[Dr. William Griffin|specialist]] she had seen was dead, and suspected Steve and the [[Hymn of One]] had something to do with it. Tariq stood by Kate as she [[The Prisoner|questioned Steve]], and later worked to get Kate off the hook when Steve threatened to [[Gavin Steps Up|press charges]] against Kate for her tactics.

Tariq became even more worried for Kate when he noticed a [[Watcher]] [[Who Watches The Watcher?|outside of her apartment]]. He became outright disturbed when Kate received a letter from [[Dudley]], asking her to meet him on [[Pinchin Street]] so that he and his father, the specialist (who had faked his death) could explain themselves. Tariq tried to come with her, but Kate decided that he [[Girl Power|could not come]], causing Tariq to become upset and [[The End|break up with Kate]].

===New and Former Friends===
Tariq goes on a date with a girl he [[A Close Shave|met on the internet]] but it didn't go well. He then met [[Julia]], an Orange Shop employee, who he began [[Cooking With Tariq|seriously dating]]. However, he remained [[Escapism|conflicted]] about his feelings towards Kate. After Kate [[Why?|vanished]], he was approached by Charlie, who asked him to help her find Kate. An upset Tariq replied [[A Quiet Night Out|"Why should I care [about Kate]?"]]. However, he later became more worried, and helped to [[No Turning Back|steal the car that Kate had last been seen in]] and [[Van Sandwich|lived in it for weeks]], hoping to get some information about her whereabouts. When Kate [[Kate Returns|contacted Charlie]] to let her know that she didn't want to be found, Tariq [[Birthday Surprise|became understandably upset with Kate]] and gave her a piece of his mind.

Shortly after returning from the woods, Gavin and Tariq renewed their efforts to work on their software. In order to help them, they hired on [[Lee]], a work experience trainee volunteer. Unfortunately, Gavin seemed to find humor in degrading Lee, who was working for nothing. As retaliation, Lee stole the only copy of their software in [[The Leak]], and exposed what the software did to the public. Frightened, Gavin and Tariq hide out at Aunt Joan's house, and begin drinking any alcohol they can lay their hands on.

[[Image:KM115-TariqJuliaCaught.JPG|thumb|right|Tariq and Julia interrupted.]]
Tariq began to feel lonely and isolated while in hiding, and [[Terrence (video)|invites Julia over]] for a conjugal visit. Gavin walk in on them and becomes upset that Tariq has given up their location, and stresses that Julia might have been followed. Sure enough, [[Terrence]] the benefactor of [[Project Orwell]], arrives and begins looking for them. Lee, out of spite, decides to post videos that would lead both Gavin in Tariq on a treasure hunt around London to attempt to recover their software. This strained their friendship, and they began blaming each other for what has happened. Julia and Charlie begin a more serious search for the software after Gavin and Tariq reach the point where they are competing over who will get the software first. In the end, the software is lost when [[Kate's Watcher]] steals it.

Later on, [[Patricia|Patricia Nielson]] attempted to interview Tariq about Kate and [[Dr. Griffin]], to which he refused, claiming it was "trouble we don't need." He says that his relationship with Julia has gotten more serious, and begins contemplating making a commitment. The two are later seen [[Smells like Xmas spirit|decorating Tariq's apartment]] for Christmas, followed by a day out where they see the movie "Enchanted". However, the relationship begins deteriorating, and in the video [[Happy new year?]] Tariq explains that Julia had broken up with him because he couldn't let things go. He gets a new job working for Terrence, and the two of them [[Down Under|force]] Gavin to help them get the software back by force. They [[Resolution|attack]] the Hymn of One center, but they are stopped when the police arrive. Tariq tried to prevent his former friend, Gavin, from getting arrested by the police. However, he failed and went into hiding for the next few weeks.

===Severing Ties===
[[Image:KM166-SteveandTariqargue.jpg|thumb|left|Tariq and Steve have it out.]]
Following Kate's murder, Tariq took a great interest in attempting to discover who killed his ex-girlfriend. He arrives at Kate's [[Kate's Memorial Service|Memorial Service]] and accuses Steve, leading to a brawl that knocks over the shrine in the room. Charlie becomes upset at the two of them, a forces them to make amends and working together to find out what happened to Kate. Ironically, this turns out to be counterproductive as Tariq and Steve work together to disrupt a meeting between Charlie and Patricia, who had been the last person to see Kate alive.

Julia put in a good word with [[Justin]] at [[JustIncredible.TV]] in hopes that he would hire Tariq as the new technical manager for the channel. Following his [[Boobcast|interview]], Tariq seemed to become quite congenial with Justin. He then tagged along with Julia and Lee while they filmed an interview with [[Rupert Van Helden]], hoping to find some answers regarding Kate's murder. The following week, it was discovered that [[Group Hug|Gavin had taken the position]] that Tariq had applied for. Deciding that he had nothing left keeping him in London, [[Stiff Upper Lip|Tariq fled to India]], and expresses his bitter feelings towards Gavin for taking the job. He [[Credible?|sends Julia a postcard]], indicating he is in Mumbai. He continues to dispel advice to his friends in the UK through Bebo, and warns Charlie to be careful of [[Tim]], Kate's exboyfriend.

Tariq ultimately decided to stay in India, and posted the following explanation:
{{quote|Tariq|I wanted to write something here to let you all know that I'm not going to be around for a while. I'm really loving India and I've decided I'm going to stay out here for a long time. My mum's going to come over and we're starting a new life here. I'm happier than I've ever been and it's great having a change of scene, meeting new people and forgetting all the bad stuff that's happened in the past.

So thanks for sharing the good and bad, for supporting me in difficult times and telling me what to do when I was being an idiot.}}

==Sophie's Video==
Is it going to be linked? It seems pretty relevant to the plot....
Here's the link: http://bebo.com/watch/4585283644 --[[Special:Contributions/24.77.246.86|24.77.246.86]] 20:05, 18 August 2007 (CDT)

==Links to videos==
Hmm, something should be done about that extremely long link to bebo.com.--[[user:jeans|jeans]] 23:47, 16 July 2007 (CDT)
:Nevermind, it was fixed. ^^--[[user:jeans|jeans]] 04:37, 17 July 2007 (CDT)

== Picture links for videos ==

is there a way to make it so that the pictures have links themselves to the video that they are represtenting without redirecting them for every page there on - [[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 23:48, 23 July 2007 (CDT)

== OMG!!!!!!!! ==

Did anybody see the video Charlies party?
Im just shocked.--[[User:DIZZYZAP478|DIZZYZAP478]] 16:35, 11 August 2007 (CDT)
:Seriously, the [[Hymn of One|Hymnie]]'s GOT to be [[Steve]]. I agree with Charlie - he's a creep! [[User:SilverBULLETx3|  '''Ã¢ÂÂ¢SilverÃ¢ÂÂ¢'''  ]] [[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|Contribs]] 12:39, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

== Swearing and Nail Polish==

Has there been any talk about linking all the swears in the videos? Just that, lg15 has it, so why not KateModern? On another note, Kate wore nail polish in the latest video, is there a general rule not to link to pages about the lg15 version of things? Because I linked to the nail polish page for Bree, so... --[[User:Aideen|Aideen]] 06:54, 17 August 2007 (CST)
:Since no one has replied to this, I think I will. The reason swearing hasn't been brought up is because all of the characters are well over 20. How common is it to find adults who swear? Swearing is a notable thing in LG15 because it's not in every video, unlike KateModern. Now, the nail polish may or may not be important, I dunno. I'm going to guess not, though; it's become quite a common feature lately. - [[User:Shiori|Shiori]] 10:21, 25 January 2008 (CST)

:: I don't see any harm in linking to the swearing. I mean, Lauren's only 18, while Gina's in her 20s. In any case, it's hardly unusual to hear a teenager swear, and I'm pretty sure there's actually less strong language in KateModern (and a fair bit of that is courtesy of Lauren). [[User:Bobby G|Bobby G]] 08:48, 31 May 2008 (CDT)

== Recap? ==

Why is it the recap video not on the pedia? We do the recap videos for lg, but not for KM??? [[User:Greenie|Greenie]] 21:47, 29 October 2007 (CDT)
:You know, it's a fair question, and definitely something I've been thinking about. But for me, what it comes down to is whether or not the videos are listed on the "official" video list. Right now, on the KateModern Bebo page [http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MID=367137231&MemberId=4337221200] the recap videos aren't listed, but on the Lonelygirl15 website [http://www.lg15.com/lonelygirl15], they are. And unless we hear official word otherwise, I think we just need to go with what is included in the official lists. But the videos are good, so I'm going to list them on [[Sophie]]'s page. Yeah... I think that's how we should do it. --[[User:Zoey|Zoey]] 14:14, 30 October 2007 (CDT)
::Also you have to consider this: The Recap Videos for KateModern have been All the videos from that week PUT together (5 or so videos unaltered beyond the fact that they are stringed together.) --[[User:FH14|FH14]] 15:58, 30 October 2007 (EST)
:::I understand that. I just wasn't sure why they weren't on there. I'm not a fan of the KM recap videos, to be honest. They come out too frequently and they're too long... LG recaps show a large portion of the videos in a concise amount of time, that doesn't involve showing over half the video over again... [[User:Greenie|Greenie]] 16:39, 30 October 2007 (CDT)

== Main Characters ==
I think we should add Lee and Julia as main characters. I'd do it myself, but I don't feel like hunting down decent pictures of them. Anyone else agree? - [[User:Shiori|Shiori]] 10:49, 24 November 2007 (CST)
:The issue for me with adding more main characters to KM is that those four "headshots" are very "official" looking, and so to add Lee and Julia (or whomever), all new headshots would need to be captured from videos, to make sense aesthetically. This is complicated by the fact that when paused, KM vids have a huge "play" icon in the middle of the frame, so capturing specific shots is much harder than with LG15 vids... ~ '''[[User:Jbshryne|JBSHRYNE]]''' 15:49, 28 November 2007 (CST)
::Well, Julia at the least is looking more and more like a main character for Season 2 (she's already one one the character index). I'm still wary about Lee . . . but Julia, at least for now, should probably be up. If we do have picture issues, we could just use the shot of her from her character page for now (which isn't that bad of a shot, except it doesn't have a white background), at least until we get a more official looking one later --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 11:39, 24 January 2008 (CST)
:::What about Terrence? I know he's a baddie, but he's got his own Bebo page and uploaded videos and everything. He's even listed on the "my best friends" box on the official Bebo pages. [[User:Bobby G|Bobby G]] 17:43, 13 June 2008 (CDT)
::::Terrence and Gavin should be added. At least Terrence. Both are still on the character list on katemodern's bebo page. Gavin wasn't taken off like Kate and Tariq.--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 21:15, 19 June 2008 (CDT)

== Strathcarron ==

Kate's real name is actually "Strathcarron", not "Strathcorran", as written in [[The Last Work: 8PM]] and spoken by the police in [[Prime Suspect]] and Terrence in [[The Last Work: 10PM]]. The only time anyone says "Strathcorran", as far as I can remember, is Gavin in [[Touch the Toyota]], which was probably a mistake. I'd change it, but I don't know how to alter the names of pages. [[User:Bobby G|Bobby G]] 18:24, 1 July 2008 (CDT)

I've done my best to fix this, but I think it might need some cleaning up. Sorry. [[User:Bobby G|Bobby G]] 18:01, 6 July 2008 (CDT)
