Someone said they're supposed to display the actual message on that sign on the faraway island?

You just anchored the post that says that it says "XXXX", regardless of how close you get. The post does not claim in any way, shape, or form that the sign is supposed to state any message; in fact, quite the opposite.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the numbers and sign both contain four digits.

Infodude575 (talk)09:09, 10 September 2014

Well, if you could randomize the numbers every time you hover hovered the sign, that'd make no sense. Not to mention, you're not supposed to be able to see the contents of the sign, anyway. Clearly it isn't a coincidence... in fact, that says even more that there is nothing on the sign other than the 4 numbers. What message could there possibly be on the sign?

By message I meant the four numbers. By the way, are the numbers really random?

Looking at the page more clearly, I think I misread the unknown part as "why the numbers showed up" rather than "why the numbers are there". My bad.

On a small related note, the page itself could use some cleaning up.

Honestly, I don't think there's anything to investigate. We get random numbers if we view the sign from a telescope and that's all we know. There is nothing in game to give hints on what the numbers could mean. No NPC mentions anything particularly special about the telescope either. Considering these facts, anything anyone comes up with will most likely just be speculation. There's a wiki policy against speculation so unless you think you can come up with something really compelling -- which I find doubtful -- I think you two have better things to do than discuss something almost no one cares about.

Eh, I wouldn't really care if people didn't go around asking about it. However, I am concerned how stubby this page is.

Infodude575 (talk)18:53, 10 September 2014

Cleaning implies shortening/reorganizing, both of which don't apply. Also, don't add fluff to a page just because it's "stubby". There's not much on the page because there's not much to talk about.

If you're so concerned about stubs, there's a category for that.

And it's not like we can add anymore to this page.

  • Image
  • Removing the opinionated part ("Although not as intriguing as the cutscene shown from the Viewscope, many parts are put into detail.")
  • Shortening/merging the sign and number part into one sentence.
  • Category:NPC
  • Taking away the trivia (You can't go anywhere near that sign, and that abnormal means was patched a long time ago)
