Hey Eloccc, whatsup budddyyy? Vengeance Signet 03:01, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Hiya. Be sure to vote for in the Bureaucrat Election.--§ Eloc § 03:02, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

omg, yes, I will, <3 (overuse of commas ftw) How exactly do I vote? xD Vengeance Signet 03:03, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I'll tell you on the 13th.--§ Eloc § 03:04, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

You don't. Voting in the election requires 100+ non-user and non-guild namespace edits. You don't even have 50 total =\

If you did, however, you'd click the link in the site notice at the top and follow the instructions at Guild Wars Wiki:Elections =) MisterPepe talk 03:05, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Simple enough, all they have to do is get 100+.--§ Eloc § 03:06, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

sigs on guild pages

As per Guild_Wars_Wiki_talk:Formatting/Guilds#Credits_on_Guild_pages, your signature really shouldn't be appearing on numerous guild pages throughout the Guild: namespace. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 02:49, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

I do realize that but it's alot faster to type ~~~ than typing [[User:Eloc Jcg|Eloc Jcg]], correct?--§ Eloc § 02:54, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

The point is that credits aren't supposed to appear on articles at all, no matter how you put it =\ MisterPepe talk 03:00, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

You missed the point: your name shouldn't be on the page at all unless it's part of the leader/officer listing. Content credits are not supposed to be on article pages. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 03:01, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Well what if I got those people to add my name then? It's in the GNU Free Documentation License. "...this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work..."--§ Eloc § 03:03, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Also, couldn't people just not butting into talk pages? Not to be mean but edit conflicts suck.--§ Eloc § 03:03, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

That's what the edit history is for. It keeps track of all edits that you've made to a page, so there's no need to add credits to the page itself. The edit history itself takes care of any GFDL attribution concerns =P MisterPepe talk 03:06, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Well I got permission from those people.--§ Eloc § 03:09, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Not sure what your referring to by "butting into" - conversations on a talk page are not limited to two parties. As for the GFDL, as MisterPepe already mentioned, the article History fulfills that role. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 03:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Added: it doesn't matter if you have their permission, it's policy not to include credits on pages. I can't give you permission to go against policy, they can't give you permission to go against policy, a sysop can't give you permission to go against policy, not even a bureaucrat can give you permission to go against policy. It's called policy for a reason. If you don't like it, propose a change to the policy, but until or unless it's changed, you need to follow it. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 03:12, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Well what if I got permission from the people? It's just normal to give credit where due. As for butting in, it seems people just can't have one conversation without other people kinda joining in on it.--§ Eloc § 03:13, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

As I already stated above: it does not matter if you got permission, it's not supposed to be there. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 03:15, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Allow me to but in, If you're so concerned about having an A-B conversation why don't you converse with MSN/IRC/AIM/ICQ/Email? -- Scourge 03:16, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Ya, the other one was an edit conflict.--§ Eloc § 03:17, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Blocked for a day...

Hi Eloc,

I blocked you for a day to help you cool down and think about being more considerate. Here are some specifics:

• Don't argue with people simply because they are criticizing you or pointing out what they think are mistakes they made.
• You think Asia is poor and speaks Mandarin. No offense to your limited short-sighted and highly intolernat view of the world, that remark is very offensive in and of itself.
• This is the ONLY official wiki right now and its's in English so you can bet that the ENTIRE player base is reading it, not just those you consider English speaking.

Please take this time to calm down and think twice about engaging in racial/political/linguistic/economic devaluation of other nations. Everyone counts, and everyone counts just as importantly. --Karlos 19:22, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok. tyvm. I did need that. I think I'll take maybe one more day off.--§ Eloc § 21:21, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Aww, wondering why you logged out. Want me to fix your header on your user page? I can make it better.--§ Eloc § 06:51, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

My RfA

Please see my reply to your vote. I just had to reply since your reason was utterly wrong. :) -- (gem / talk) 09:19, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Then why you're rank still there on GuildWiki?--§ Eloc § 09:28, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Because there is no reason to remove the sysop status there. Ofcourse if you want to, you can request removal of my sysop status at Guildwiki from Tanaric, Fyren or LordBiro who are able to remove them. -- (gem / talk) 09:47, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

It'd be a waste of time. Don't worry about it, Gem. -Auron 09:48, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Actually, that's not Fyren's job. More to the point, we don't remove inactive sysops from the roster at the GuildWiki. It's a lifelong appointment, unless you're evil. :) —Tanaric 09:49, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

It might be better not to, as it could open the door to confusing records. How about sneaking in a comment right under your oppose, adding something like "Note: I have since changed my mind on this and would strike this out if the RFA were not already closed."? --Rezyk 21:36, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

That's something better suited for the talk page. His stance when the reconfirmation was open was one of opposition; we don't keep archived RfAs updated when people change their stance. -Auron 21:40, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Are you serious?

Really? Your opposing votes on the RfAs seem just like a bitter revenge for the opposition on your bureaucrat nomination or something. Being admin on both GuildWiki and Guild Wars Wiki is more of a positive than a negative thing. :D -- (gem / talk) 20:20, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Indeed... it proves that they have been deemed capable of using the powers that come with being a sysop correctly on at least one other wiki, for a start. Besides, most grandfathered sysops are inactive on GuildWiki. --Santax (talk · contribs) 20:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

No Gem, I'm not opposing votes on the RfAs for bitter revenge for the opposition on my bureaucrat nomination or something. I just think if you're a Sysop on both, then you won't have as much time to spend on each one rather than just being a Sysop on one and being specialized.--§ Eloc § 22:08, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Being a sysop doesn't take your entire day, and there are plenty of people there to back you up. It's not difficult to check both wikis periodically while you are on the computer. - BeX 02:20, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Well I would rather see people who are specialized on one wiki, not two. That's just my opinion though.--§ Eloc § 02:32, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

That's fair enough. :) - BeX 02:56, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, it couldn't be based on a "revenge" thing - I didn't vote against him (or course, I didn't vote for him either). As a general rule, I usually choose not to vote on RfA's or bureaucrat elections unless there are extenuating circumstances. As a sysop, my voice shouldn't carry more weight in discussions or votes - but I've seen in the past that some people can be swayed by the votes of those that they perceive to be in a position of authority. True, I get very involved in discussions on articles and policies; but in my mind, those are different situations than votes.

As for a person's ability to sysop on two or more wikis or forums; Eloc is entitled to his opinion on it. Despite multiple arguments presented to him, he has held firm to his position, and I can respect that. If it comes up after the reconfirmations, I may post my thoughts on the subject later. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 02:50, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Why not just put your vote in near the end of the voting period, after most people have made their own decisions? --Rezyk 03:07, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

There's something that I don't understand in your reasoning Eloc. Instead of having lots of well known good sysops that split their time between two wikis you would like to not have those sysops at all? Ie you are countering the 'too little time they could use' with taking the time away completely? Lol at that. :D xD (Btw, most of them are only active on this wiki anyway. You didn't even bother to check their contrib histories at GuildWiki before voting) -- (gem / talk) 21:43, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, if they're not active on Guildwiki, then why do they still have Sysop powers? It's not like you use them there if you're only actove on this one. They could be giving them to someone else who is just on Guildwiki and is an active contributor.--§ Eloc § 21:45, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

There isn't a set number of people who can have sysop tools at once. There's no need to demote someone to "make room" for another person having sysop tools. -Auron 03:20, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Headers

I'm trying to find mention of the header you added to King Adelbern within the Guild Wars Wiki:Formatting/NPCs guideline, but not seeing it. Have these changes been discussed? If so, can you point me to the discussion? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 01:27, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

They make a lot of white space like that, are they really necessary? You have redundant information with the info box with the name and the profession, and most of the information could be contained within the article and probably is. --Lemming64 01:27, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Not to mention, age? relative to what? The start of prophecies is about 5 years before the end of Nightfall on the timeline. --Lemming64 01:29, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

My thoughts parallel those expressed by Lemming64 and by Barek, above, so I'll not restate them. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 01:30, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I am going to remove the link to the boxes from the two pages in question for now, I will leave the sub-pages intact until some further discussion has taken place. --Lemming64 01:34, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

:(, well why not? Everything else is copied from the manual, why not the headers to? It's best to have as much info as possible.--§ Eloc § 01:35, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

The format it is in is not ideal, really something like this needs to be discussed on the npc formatting page and tested out there to see what people would like. The main thing is that two infoboxes is going over the top. If it is repeatable information for most npc's or even some, an if statement could be added to the existing infobox to include the extra information. Otherwise what is wrong with just including it textually in the article itself. --Lemming64 01:38, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Adding information is a good thing, as that is the main focus of the wiki. I think the point being made here is that it doesn't quite seem complete in its current state, and should have been discussed in the appropriate place before being implemented. Virtually everything that gets added to articles that becomes a standard is discussed first, not just implemented. I also see from your list on your user page that currently the plan is only to add it for the Tyrian NPC's... what about all the others? - Thulsey - talk 02:12, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Well I'm starting with the Tyrian ones first.--§ Eloc § 02:15, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Devils Whisper Contact table

Hey Eloc, just wanted to let you know that the row for Vermillion is completely white on Firefox 2.0.0.4 (probably other too). The reason why is because their is no HTML or CSS color called Vermillion, so the background is instead the default (white). The only reason it works on IE is because IE tries to translate into hexadecimal or something like that. But in Firefox it ignores it and puts in the default background (white) which is under your text color of white. Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

I would recommend specifying real colors otherwise a large percentage of people that visit may not see anything for those rows.

PS: Just checked with Opera 9.21, it does the same thing. --trekie9001 05:51, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

FYI: Here's a list of color codes that should, in theory, be safe on all browsers. Although, as you can see, I have some the the hex equivalents incorrect for a couple of them. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 05:59, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

So which one do you think would be closest to the current colour?--§ Eloc § 06:19, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok, tyvm.--§ Eloc § 06:57, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Hex codes should work correctly across all browsers unless you start getting into weird letter number combinations on old 256 color monitors. It's color names like 'fuscia' that sometimes make the browsers throw up. And cry. ;) - Thulsey - talk 07:01, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

At the same time!? Dam, I'd hate to have that monitor, throwing up on me and leaking its monitor fluid like juices which would probly kill me or something.--§ Eloc § 07:02, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Maps for Quests

Can I ask 2 things wrt to your uploading of maps?

1. Consistent naming scheme, see GWW:QUESTS for the suggested name format.
2. Context/locations in images, e.g. show the outpost where quest starts from, or outpost nearest the first objective etc.

a few of your maps just look like (very small) random screen grabs that could have come from any location in kourna or vabbi. It's not as if maps have to be small, since the wiki will make a thumbnail of large ones to show in the articles. --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 13:29, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Please don't do it, it never helps. Further on, if consensus is against keeping that piece of information in the article (as it is currently), then don't insist on adding it, as it's just disrupting; much better to discuss on that talk page until you get some others to agree with you that it should be added. Lastly, I suggest you calm down some and drop the aggressiveness a bit, it's just a wiki article, not the end of the world. Cheers. --Dirigible 22:54, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Warrior Test

Didn't see you added the walkthrough, sorry for that. Even though the quest formatting policy says to add what it says in the log book, there are 2 different ascalon regions one pre-searing and post-searing. Because this quest takes place before pre-searing it gets that region. Trust me on this one that is what needs to go there. --Sktbrd341 20:57, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Why not put in [[Ascalon (pre-searing)|Ascalon]] .--§ Eloc § 21:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

All the other quests that are in pre-searing have the same thing. Its easier for other people to see that the quest takes place in Ascalon (pre-searing) and not get lost when they read Ascalon. Or even if they would click on Ascalon and then the go to the pre-searing might confuse some people. This is how the quest boxes were set up before I got here and I have been following the same procedures. Best place to discuss this would be on the quest policy page. --Sktbrd341 21:09, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Shing Jea landmarks

You seem to be updating/creating the pages for that long list of Shing Jea landmarks. This is just a heads up to remember to put the correct party size. You put "8" on the first three. Wouldn't want you to finish the entire list then realize they all have the wrong party size. That is, if those pages even need a party size, since they're really just part of an explorable area. Oh well, up to you. --Heelz 01:14, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

As for party size, it automatically does that if I remove the settings. There is no way around it atm.--§ Eloc § 01:19, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I've tried to fix the location infobox to work with landmarks. Please tell me what else needs to be fixed :) (Oh, and btw, please put the real region as region, i. e. Shing Jea Island, since it will be categorized after region. The explorable should be in the description atm) - anja 08:15, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

The explorable?--§ Eloc § 04:32, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

type it in chinese. you can use the windows character table or change your keyboard to chinese keyboard, if you have it instealled. - Y0_ich_halt 14:15, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Um, no, it can't. Cookies are cookies. Keyloggers are programs. Cookies cannot be programs, and any program that was trying to hide wouldn't go to the trouble of also showing up as a cookie. So please, don't scaremonger when you have no idea what you're talkiing about. (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 23:28, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

You know what the "risk level" is for? poke | talk 23:14, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I know what the risk level is for and cookies acutally observe what you go on then send you spam relating to what you like to go on the most, be it porn or video games. And spam in general isn't good to have.--§ Eloc § 00:15, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

The main reason for having cookies is to store user data.. For example the session of the wiki login.. Spam is something you cannot avoid in the internet.. poke | talk 21:30, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, GWW doesn't put the cookies on to observe what we do on the Internet then reports it to 3rd partys.--§ Eloc § 22:50, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Your user page

Currently infringes the user page policy, "The combined contents on your main user page should not exceed 300 kB in total size. You can verify your page size simply by saving your user page with your browser and checking the resulting file size." by quite a lot, the main culprit is the rollerbeetle dance gif though in one of your infoboxes. Please be tollerant of those on modems and replace it with the still image perhaps. --Lemming 00:09, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, I got rid of that Roller Beetle userbox. How do I save my use page with my browser?--§ Eloc § 00:31, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

File -> Save Page. It should be pretty much a similar format in most browsers, though I expect some name it differently --Lemming 00:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

However without the roller-beetle it is close enough that I doubt it will cause any further complaints. Stop adding so many userboxes :p --Lemming 00:34, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

C++

Hooray for another C++ learner. How you finding it? I'm finding it a challenge but extremely rewarding. I've also been learning Pascal alongside it, without that I wouldn't have known where to start on C++. Do you have aspirations of becoming a games programmer like myself? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Hyperion .

I am finding it quite tough as the book I'm doing it in seems outdated and didn't even give me all the library sources. Like it asks for something similar to #include <iostream.h> but it doesn't come with the software so I can't get it all figured out completly. Good thing is, I'm getting credits for high school by doing it in Computers Class. And yes, I'm hoping to one day become a game programmer.--§ Eloc § 01:16, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Whats up, I am currently in my second to last semester for game programming. If you need a compiler go to microsofts website and download Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. It comes with all of the libraries you need and it is free. If you are looking into becoming a game programmer once you understand C++ start looking at DirectX and OpenGL programming. --Sktbrd341 19:44, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I want to test whether the full vigor paladin axe variant still works, but I can't do that properly without having a Wing's Axe. Can I borrow it from you for a 5k deposit? —Ebany Salmonderiel 17:43, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

uh... the axt totally doesn't matter for that build o.O the build's core are AoE axe attacks combined with monks heals that trigger on action. the zealous mod is gimmick for e-management. - Y0_ich_halt 17:58, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

I suppose, but I can't test it to its full potential without a zealous axe, and I don't have one. ——Ebany Salmonderiel 19:01, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Game mechanics

I read the suggestions you left, thanks for following up on that. This is my goal and how it differs a bit from your suggestions: I would like to let the existing articles on different topics provide the actual info on how something works. Limits, caps, requiremnets and so on. The Game mechanics article is more of an overview, written in a converstaional nature, demonstating only basically how each game mechanic can influence another. However, the power of the article comes from using as many key words as possible, and providing the links in sentence to the individual articles. In this way, basic information is learned from the text, while specific information is learned from following the link. I added several more paragraphs to demonstarte this. However, over the last few days, other members have edited out much of my original article in an attempt to boil it down to just dry list of raw data, completely defeating my original intent for the article. Read what I added, if it still exists, and let me know what you think.LeFick 18:09, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I checked it out and so far it is sort of looking "blocky" in the terms of how the paragraphs are split up. I'm not sure if this was you or someone else but I do got a suggestion for this. By juts hitting Random Article on Wikipedia, I came across this page. See how it shows a small dexcription of each time fraim then gives a main link to the full article above? I think that kind of formatting idea would look excellent on the Game mechanics page. Don't you think so?--§ Eloc § 23:20, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Some of the structure of the article does suffer from revision, and some does still need to be polished. I tried to follow the link, but wikipedia says no such article. Game mechanics will continue to evolve in the days to come. LeFick 00:09, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, switched got my links mixed up. Anyways, I fixed the link.--§ Eloc § 02:11, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Ah, Yes. A very good Idea. I'll work on that later this week. LeFick 02:14, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, cool. Tell me if you need any help with that.--§ Eloc § 02:18, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, Hows This? -->Game mechanics LeFick 01:32, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Looking good so far, but I still think it would look better with something like Wikipedia's Template:Main.--§ Eloc § 02:25, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I would like the article to stay about the size it is, with maybe one more section specifically about combat. Proabably between surviving and upgrades. I will have to experement with that WIKI format, as I'm still new to wiki editing. If you want to try to add the format go ahead. It will be a couple days before I attack it again as I want to see how much survives the editing that I'm sure will happen soon.LeFick 02:33, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Subst

FYI Template:Unsigned is supposed to be used with a subst (substitute) at the front. E.g. {{subst:unsigned|213.140.6.120|date}}. My wiki edits are so random these days... --Xasxas256 12:22, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

I never really understood what the "subst:" meant. Does it make a different if I put the "subst:" or not?--§ Eloc § 19:27, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

yes. if you put subst: there, then this "{{subst:Template}}" will be replaced with the code when you save and not only show it. example:

(with subst:)

--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Y0_ich_halt .

(without subst:)

--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Y0_ich_halt .

look at the code. - Y0_ich_halt 19:31, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Oh icic, so it automatically changes it to the real coding then so it doesn't seem so "automated".--§ Eloc § 19:33, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

yep. and the page Template:Unsigned doesn't get another entry in its "what links here". Also, if someone changes that template, then all inclusions without subst: will be changed to the newer versions, while those with subst: will stay the same. - Y0_ich_halt 19:35, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, same goes for {{welcome}} & {{subst:welcome}} I take it?--§ Eloc § 19:37, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

exactly. and what would someone who knows of templates think if he sees you're lazy enough to use a welcome template? ;) - Y0_ich_halt 19:49, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, I wonder why people just don't use templates for theire signature, that way if you change it, it will update automatically.--§ Eloc § 19:55, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

That's the reason it's not allowed. ALOT of server power just to change one tiny sig ;) - anja 19:59, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Aww, how lame.--§ Eloc § 20:00, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Btw, how would you know someone is using a template in there sig is they use the subst:?--§ Eloc § 20:00, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Ah, that no one would really know. It's including template without subst that's not allowed, since one change will make the server need to update EVERY page your sig is on.. might be quite alot of pages after a while :P - anja 20:03, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

i had a discussion about using a subst: and everyone refused it :P - Y0_ich_halt 20:04, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Any particular reason why you tagged my talk page with a "Welcome to Wiki" template? Something I did wrong or you just trying to be polite? I'd like to think I was wiki-competent enough not to need an "initial guide". ¬_¬ --BlueNovember 22:58, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

he just does it you didn't do anything wrong.t priestess donut +23:02, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Least welcoming welcome ever? I have the exact same feelings about those horrible templates. — Skuld 23:09, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Just because you don't like it BlueNovember, doesn't mean you can erase the messsage, you're not supposed to do that, in case you didn't know. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

Ya, just a tad rude Blue. I was only trying to be friendly and welcome you...--§ Eloc § 00:25, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

I meant no disrespect. However please reflect on the content your message; from my perspective it was equally rude, and did not really represent any good intentions you had. I suggest you re-word it. Tbh, I thought it was sarcasm. :s. Anyway, as a compromise to policy, I've moved the message to an archive page without linking to it.

Ty Skuld for your support. --BlueNovember 12:22, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

You have to link to it afaik. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

It's just a preset message. If you want, I'll start personally welcoming people from now on.--§ Eloc § 17:40, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

I think your welcome is fine, Eloc. Most people that join a wiki do not know how to use it. I for one don't know much about using symbols and stuff for things. So the page helped me a lot in figuring out how to work things. It's not like you can read minds through a computer and should know that he knew his way around here already. I think Blue was being completely rude, and should be giving you an apology. --Lustre Of Havoc 12:43, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Gack. Can't believe such a simple thing is causing so much e-motion. Anyway, I'd like to think I wasn't rude; throughout this affair I've not insulted Eloc, only explained how I (incorrectly) interpretted his welcome. I don't expect him to read minds, only to not robotically catagorise everyone with few edits. I wasn't even new to this wiki when he stamped his template ^_^. Lustre of Havoc, when have you gone to say, a swimming baths, to have the life-guard come up to you and offer you armbands? --BlueNovember 11:07, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Completely different and you know it. Compare the percentage of humans who know how to swim and the percentage of humans who can properly use a computer. Don't come back until you have done so. I wasn't that new either when he said hello, but it's still fine, I appreciate any welcome just so long as I get it, I don't care how long it takes for it to come. I suggest you look at this [site].

o0, I say, someone's touchy ;p.

Projected current human population: 6,626,876,545

Number of people who use the internet: (more relevant than "use a computer") ~694,000,000

That works out to be about 10.5%. I imagine the %age of people who can swim is significantly larger, although tricky to estimate. Places with the highest population densities also have the highest computer literacy (Japan, China), and conversely I'd imagine sparsley populated areas tend to have little need for swimming (Africa, Russia). Still, I'm only guessing.

Interesting thoughts anyway, but mostly irrelevant. The gesture is rude, regardless of how statistically appropriate it may be. Additionally, the fact that you appreciate the welcome doesn't mean everyone will; I'm sure others would appreciate a "Welcome to Wiki" template that doesn't pressume they're luddites. This was my only concern; we don't want to discourage users from contributing.

I'm tempted not to post this, but hey, I thought it may be of use to you. (Btw, you don't need to enclose external links in double braces). --BlueNovember 13:21, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure more people know how to swim than know how to use a Computer as swimming has been around for ever and computers are pretty recent in comparisn.--§ Eloc § 16:12, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Rofl, that's pathetic of them. Shouldn't we suggest a way to filter those kind of people out before they start swearing? I don't think that the kids who get help here need to see that kind of stuff. Not that I don't swear myself, I just don't swear where I know you shouldn't.--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Lustre .

ermmm hey eloc =/ im.. im a total " newb " at this xD so i dont know much about how to use guild wiki but im doing my best =P heheh well i was just wondering if you could teach me a little about this =/ cuz i dont know ANY THING xD im reading some " tutorials " at the moment xD hehe and =P another favour hehe u should say " what a annoying guy " xP can u help me with the cape image for my guilds profile? heheh thanx ^^ have fun : Symbolic hero 18:47, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Not sure what you need help with the cape for on your guild page, it looks awsome. If you need help with anything more specific, just be sure to ask me.--§ Eloc § 03:52, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey

What are the chances that they'll take our suggestion of changing the wiki skin? I think they can change it a lot so that it suits the Guild Wars reputation, rather than look more like a normal, boring wiki for a game. I've seen some other way smaller games than have impressive wiki sites. I think we just need to get together a petition or something so that they have to work on it some. Even some of us can pitch in if they'll allow it. --Lustre Of Havoc 12:36, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

there's some wiki embedded in a forum... it's completely gw layout (ingame style), and it looks just crappy imo... i like this one's layout. you can check the other skins in your preferences and make skins for yourself to use. - Y0_ich_halt 15:12, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Ya, there a few other skins in Special:My Preferences, but they're pretty lame. Too bad you can't make your own.--§ Eloc § 03:54, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

you can't? - Y0_ich_halt 14:45, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

You can! For example, Smurf did a Guild Wars theme for this wiki, which can be found here. (Ask him how to implement it on your own account, I don't remember) - anja 14:49, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

To bad it only works for Firefox.--§ Eloc § 16:05, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Alright, if you say so XD--§ Eloc § 22:39, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Eloc, you have to get Firefox, it's the only way to live. Do you know how many viruses are attacking IE these days? Any crack in your security system and you're out for good. I suggest you go to [Mozilla] and download Firefox while you're still with us.--Lustre Of Havoc 12:46, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, quite possibly. I've used it before when my Sister got a virus on our Desktop computer and the virus totally disabled IE but left Firefox alone. But still, I got like 2 firewalls and 2 antiviruses on.--§ Eloc § 13:28, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

For those who have this page on their Watchlist or just patrol Recent Changes...

After looking through My user talk Archive, I'd like to appologize for how I behaved back then to certain members of the GWW community. I especially like to apologize to...

• Gem, for arguments such as User_talk:Eloc_Jcg/Archive#Signature.
• Prophetic Arrows for making such a big fuss about him taking my table and all my builds.
• Scourge for, as he puts it, flogging the dead horse at User_talk:Eloc_Jcg/Archive#Copyright on builds.
• Skuld for saying that he has problems at User_talk:Isaiah_Cartwright/Izzy_Talk_Archive_2#Goren_is_married.21.3F, for apparently making him disgust me (User_talk:Eloc_Jcg#asfd), whatever other things I did that makes him dislike me so.
• Emily for being a little rude to her at times (User_talk:Eloc_Jcg#Emily.27s_Talk_page).
• Auron for upsetting him enough to somehow make him hate me (User_talk:Eloc_Jcg#:.2F) (User_talk:Backsword#o.O). Can't quite remember how I did it (I think it's from when I was on Guildwiki), but sorry anyways.
• 58.173.92.233 for warning him that vandalizing will get him banned? (Special:Contributions/58.173.92.233 & User talk:58.173.92.233)
• Anyone else that I've forgotten (those were just the top that kinda popped into my head)

So ya...in conclusion...sorry...--§ Eloc § 07:51, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I think I'll have to post first since I'm listed first. (Thanks for that btw) Appology accepted. (You listed a pretty bad example though since I wasn't doing my bet in that discusion either :P ) -- (gem / talk) 08:17, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Well it just seemed that you were getting quite frustrated with me in that conversation & I'm sure I've made you frustrated or something like that before other places among the Wiki.--§ Eloc § 08:23, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Yep :)--§ Eloc § 23:35, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

And half of those aren't probably even true. How about modifying them so that they actually tell about you? (I might be wrong ofcourse and do apologise if I am) -- (gem / talk) 23:38, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Ya, you're wrong XD.--§ Eloc § 23:39, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, sorry. Only thought so because "This user is addicted to ecto" and "This user despises ectos and other expensive crafting materials." :P -- (gem / talk) 00:33, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, I do got Obsidian armor and I despise them for being so expensive because I bought that armor when they were at 12P. It's my fault they went up as when I wa sbuying them, they raised in price ^^;;.--§ Eloc § 01:32, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Which brings into my mind GWW:USER: "The combined contents on your main user page should not exceed 300 kB in total size. You can verify your page size simply by saving your user page with your browser and checking the resulting file size." Your page alone is over 100kB, and most of the 155 user boxes have images >2kB, resulting in a far heavier page than allowed. How about a sub page for the user boxes and a big link at the top? -- (gem / talk) 16:12, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
