Paragon collector armor

Have they changed it, so it´s just Elonian armor now? Paragon Istani armor still have the collector category btw.. :P - anja 09:09, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I checked the guy outside Blacktide Den and in the Astralarium and they have changed. Didn't have time to check the others, but if they aren't changed there's plenty of time to revert/removed delete. I am assuming good faith on that editor as well as having those two examples I personally checked. :P - BeX 09:16, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Okay, sounds good. I'll fix it up then :) - anja 09:41, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Sandbox

Could u delete this page for me ~ Kurd 09:26, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Done. :) - BeX 09:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Tnx! ~ Kurd 11:46, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Hiya

Ok, well, I sent an email to the support page, and all they did was give me auto FAQ feedback, but they said I would get an answer within the 24 hours

And I just read the page, I see now there was an update, but I was ignorant of it before the suspension. Knowingly, when I get back, I won't be easily mistaken again. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:75.33.235.176 .

No worries. If they keep sending you the auto messages keep editing the question again and again with new information. If you hadn't logged in during that time they might be able to check and that would help your claim. And also if you haven't ever had a warning before that would probably help to. Hope it works out! - BeX 16:03, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

I sent them a reply right now, they haven't sent an auto-reply back, so I'm guessing they're investigating it.--Nikki Tikki 18:59, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok, they replied and said they are trying to fix it. Thanks for the help--Princess of Sins 03:54, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

No worries and good luck. :) - BeX 03:54, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Hola

I replied to the comment, but you haven't replied back yet, so I'll just have to assume that you forgot about me. So I'll just say it here: yes, I'd love to see the screen shot and thank you very much for saving it. :D You could just email it to me through here or just straight to my email jenearly(at)gmail.com. Thanks again. (that's if u still have it. T_T) -- Zemmy 02:08, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

I did and didn't forget. I read the reply and then bookmarked the page in my to do list tab, but you've reminded me now. :P I'll grab it in a couple of hours. :) - BeX 03:12, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Vandal on the loose

Check the Recent Changes Laura Brinklow 09:37, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Could you please provide examples? :) Recent changes updates all the time, so things get lost quickly. - anja 09:39, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I think Anja has warned the person you were speaking of. I was in game and it's lucky I got a break and thought I would check my watchlist. If you see any other vandals you can always report them here: Guild Wars Wiki:Admin noticeboard and whoever is available can smack them with the ban hammer. - BeX 09:42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Will do :) Thanks for the link! Looks like he/she got da hammer already :P Laura Brinklow 09:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Article editing etiquette

Hi there, sorry to bother you with this possibly trivial question, but I'm new to Wiki and I wanted to be sure I did this right ...

I've been working on an overhaul for the Item Stub on inscriptions (you can see my workings here). Should I just go ahead and make my changes now that I'm ready? Or should I be flagging my workings in Requests for comment and waiting for feedback first?

While we're on the subject, I'm going to want to upload the inscriptions images under new names because the ones that are there don't make any sense. How do I flag the old images for deletion?

Thanks in advance, -- pullus talk 19:24, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I've asked the question at Ask a wiki question ... I figured that was a better place for it than bothering an individual GWW Helper, and I also managed to find the deletion policy which answers my other question, so I've struck my questions through and left them here to save you confusion from unidentifiable edits.

Thanks for your time! (and sorry) -- pullus talk 23:56, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

It looks very nice. :) I would suggest though that the image be uploaded under names that follow ulc naming conventions (i.e. Image:Inscription martial weapons.png rather than with capitals - we only capitalize proper nouns). Other than that, just go ahead and change it. If people don't like it or it needs further work they can either tweak it or revert it, in which case you can fix it up and do it again. You don't need to wait for comments. :) Some editors like to work by consensus, but the only areas where that is mandatory are policies. - BeX 01:11, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Guild cape thing

Yeah the cape image is still messed up. If it's a problem, I don't mind if you delete it and I can re-upload. - Buzzer 09:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

I did a ctrl+reload and it's showing correctly for me now. - BeX 09:51, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair enough. Thanks again - Buzzer 10:42, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

User page draft - terms and conditions

Hey Bex - the reason I reverted that was because there's no single document that spells out all of what are considered the "Terms and Conditions" for the game - there are a number:

• RoC - http://guildwars.com/support/legal/rulesofconduct.php
• EULA - http://guildwars.com/support/legal/users-agreement.php
• Terms of Use - http://guildwars.com/support/legal/termsofuse.php
• Copyright Info - http://guildwars.com/support/legal/copyright-info.php

I think it's better just un-wikified for now, or perhaps wikified to this page: http://guildwars.com/support/legal/default.php (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 11:53, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

I changed it to EULA but if something is missing from there then it can be added too. I think it has 3 of the 4 links you've listed at least. - BeX 11:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

It has 2 of the 4 I mentioned, I didn't include Conduct Breaches and Outcomes because that only applies to in-game acts. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 11:55, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

I'll change it to the legal default page then, although in the summary for roc it says in game, but the actual document itself says "and guild wars websites". - BeX 11:59, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Congrats

On your rank -- Raptors

Thanks! - BeX 03:10, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Concerning Userboxes

I hope you don't find me too forward, but I have decided to place your "I worship his Shadow" userbox on my page also. I know I should have asked your permission, and I whoileheartedly apolgise. If this offends, do feel free to comment on my talk and remove the offender. Many thanks in regard, and congratulations on your rank. --Carnival King 10:03, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

No worries. :) Nice to see another Lexx fan on the wiki. ;) - BeX 10:06, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Wow. I remember seeing the first series back in 97, but it having only 4 episodes I always thought it was a one off project. Funny to hear there are some 60 more episodes now. --Xeeron 10:18, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

It's finally on DVD here in Australia which is awesome. I caught it back in 2000 on free to air tv and ended up subscribing to cable just to watch it. It's certainly an.. acquired taste. :P The first 3 "seasons" are all great in different ways, and then season 4 was not up to calibre because they were too busy taking the mickey out of everyone. - BeX 10:20, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Inventory icons

Ok how do I make inventory icons look good? I tried doing them for the mini Gwen, djinn and Grawl and they just look poo! --Lemming 21:14, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Haha I don't know! Have you seen my last one? I think Santax would be the one to ask. ;) - BeX 03:48, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

About Hero's Handbook and repeatable missions

Do you know if Reputation points are still being given as Missions' Rewards (Curse of the Nornbear, for example) ?? In the preview, we could repeat the same mission over and over to boost our norn title, but now it apparently only works the first time - this actually needs some testing, as i have already done all three norn missions. Another point - do you know if there is any way to complete the Hero's Handbook without redoing all missions?? Thanks.

OH, BTW, i got your name in the Talk page of one of the missions, you mentioned you redid said mission. --Pulse 16:00, 31 august 2007, (UTC).

I haven't done that dungeon quest since, but I'm sure I got the reputation points twice during the preview. I heard that it's been nerfed though on one of the title talk pages. - BeX 05:49, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
