Userboxes =)

Hehe, seems you liked them, thank you =D LunarEffect 01:07, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Yep, I love userboxes ^^,--§ Eloc § 01:44, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Yup, couldn't help noticing ^__^. Nice collection you have there. LunarEffect 08:53, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
This looked like the correct place for this. I was wondering what I might need to do to have the sunspear rank userbox I made a little easier to edit and use on the official wiki. I didnt copy the other wikis box and I don't know enough about how to properly make a page so the template works when you use the short version of the userbox template, and I thought you may be able to help with that. If that all made sence do you have any tips for me? Bartelby 04:00, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Ok, give me a second and I'll make you an template in order to do that. No one else beat me to it please (ie. poke, lemming or any other sysops lol)--§ Eloc § 04:02, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
There, finally got it! Go to here for instructions.. In short you can add it by typing {{User Sunspear|# of points|rank}} Be sure to tell me if there are any bugs or anything wrong with it.--§ Eloc § 04:21, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the fast response. Man you are fast! Bartelby 04:33, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Ty :). I know some people here who are even faster. Compared to them, I'm a complete noob at the GWW coding.--§ Eloc § 04:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Well I hope to maybe be considered a noob at GWW coding someday. =D Oh, one thing I noticed on the template was that when I left the ":" in front of the user sunspear part the userbox would not show up. Once I removed it, it worked fine. I'm not sure if that is just something with my computer or if it does need to be taken out since the box does work in the example on the template page. Bartelby 04:43, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
One more thing. I'm planning to make a lightbringer userbox too, unless it has already been made of course. So I may, if you don't mind, ask for another template page in the near future. Bartelby 04:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
I fixed the thing with the :, just tell me when you need the Lightbrigner one.--§ Eloc § 04:53, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
ok, I created a similar userbox for the lightbringer rank. I was thinking of giving a go at making the page for the template but I decided it is best to leave that to the pros. So if you have some time to make another one for me I'd appreciate it. Thanks for all the help! Bartelby 05:32, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for making the template for me again. I hate to bring it up but again I don't know how to change it. Lightbringer is spelled wrong in some of the template. You have the n and the g switched in some of the spellings. Bartelby 05:30, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
Oh? Let me check it again. — Eloc 06:39, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
There, should be fixed now. Sorry I didn't get to making it faster, but I didn't see that you posted all the way up here. Don't hesitate to add a new section. — Eloc 06:43, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

My userpage has a bug in IE

Hi Eloc, I have a problem with my userpage, and was wondering if you could please help me with it. Using FireFox my userpage looks fine, but if I look at it using IE, it stretches the info column all the way to the right side of the screen and doesn't display the links and pictures sections. If you have any idea how to resolve this problem, I'd be most grateful for any advice. Have a great day! LunarEffect 20:59, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Fyi, it's also fucked up with Opera. I'll look into it. -- Gem (gem / talk) 21:11, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
fixed ;) poke | talk 21:17, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Bah, I had just made a fix too by adding a couple clear tags. Shouldn't start randomly editing before looking throughly where the problem is, since you're fix is a bit better. -- Gem (gem / talk) 21:20, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Oh my, that was quick! Thank you so much guys, I appreciate it! LunarEffect 21:23, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Oh wow. That was quick. Damn you guys and your fasteness. Srry I couldn't have been of any help.--§ Eloc § 01:43, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome

Well the header pretty much sums it all up :) I noticed on your user page that you're one that provides UP layouts... how do I do that? Of course I'll credit you or whoever else I decide to borrow one from that was on the page :) Thehockeydude44 03:23, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm assuming the userbox which looks like
UPL This user allows their user page layout(s) to be used by others as long as credit is given.

this.


Is that what you mean? If so, just add {{User page layout}} somewhere on your userpage and you'll get the nifty little box and be placed into the Users providing user page layouts category.--§ Eloc § 03:46, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Well thats the box, but I meant how do I use your layout? Thehockeydude44 16:37, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Just to note, I've subst'd the userbox above so that this talk page doesn't appear in Category:Users providing user page layouts -- AT(talk | contribs) 16:46, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Yeah thanks for the welcome. So far I'm not very good with wiki format, just trying to upload some armor images. Hopefully without screwing too much stuff up. Good to know there is someone to ask from. :P -Nian 15:11, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, np. Your armor images seem good so far. Feel free to ask me if you have any questions.--§ Eloc § 15:12, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the welcome :) --Lundis 17:28, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

stop hitting everyone with your welcome-templates, eloc xD - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 20:01, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

i liek the welcome-template, its on every new user now lol --Cursed Angel 20:10, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
i like it two it so welcoming you to the club of wiki editing.t priestess donut +21:26, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
LoL, it's like my new project. I will welcome anyone I see who hasn't been welcomed yet, & with 650 pages on my Watchlist, I'm bound to find some people who haven't been welcomed yet ;)--§ Eloc § 03:49, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
haha now youre hitting people with welcome templates again :D --Cursed Angel 01:51, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Hellz ya! Everytime I login to, or log out, I check RC to see which users have nothing on their talk page yet.--§ Eloc § 01:52, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the Welcome! Sir Zarox 18:46, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

stop saying him thanks :P he's just throwing around welcome templates... xD but he's a nice guy anyway. - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 18:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Hehe, GG. Keep it up Eloc. I think it's a good way of welcoming new users too. A empty talk page is a lonely talk page. :P - nian User Nian Sig.png 21:25, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

XD, I pwn like that. — Eloc

Grr!

You know the rules, Eloc. No editing other people's userpages. UserDrago-sig.gif Drago 03:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Srry, just removing an underscore which isn't quite needed.--§ Eloc § 03:56, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Lol. My bad UserDrago-sig.gif Drago 03:58, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Np, just make sure to check the the history each time.--§ Eloc § 03:59, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Heya

Heya and thanks for the warm welcome...even though I've been around here a bit :P. I do more on Guild Wiki than this site though. Wondering if you can answer me a question... On this site, during skill evaluation events, do the descriptions of the skills get updated? It was my general understanding that the answer was no... but I may be mistaken. Isk8 02:00, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I am quite not sure. I'd assume that they would get changed to match the ones ingame and just change it back when they change it back, but I don't know that for sure. I normally work on Locations, not skills.--§ Eloc § 02:20, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
So...what am I doing wrong to recieve a cleverlly worded cation mesage?--Ryudo 20:12, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Everything Nothing, just saw you didn't have any welcome msg on your talk page. — Eloc 20:13, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

You draw my attention

And i just had to look at your page, but O MY GOD!! 1,14MB? are you kidding?(In short, your userpage is too big) ~ KurdUser Kurd sig.png 21:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm guessing it's the userboxes lol. Don't worry, I will shorten it down soon. I'm also planning on making a contest for people to design my userpage for me and the winner gets some prize amount ingame (probably somewhere around 100P). — Eloc 21:39, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Interesting*Puts page on watchlist* ~ KurdUser Kurd sig.png 21:41, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Aww, I wish I was any good at designing userpages :(. Mine's just a rip off of Anja's. Talk br12 ~ 21:42, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Yes, it is. There will be a few rules involved when making it (like theme colour, certain content required, etc), but besides that, it's all about creativity. — Eloc 21:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Sign me up! I need some in game cash, lol. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!
I'll work on a rules page & stuff tonight. But as of now, I'm supposed to be researching an essay in class lol. — Eloc 21:45, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
eloc, i think we will need to meet sometime in the game so you can give me my price. ;) - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 21:57, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Do you mean prize? Or do you actually mean price? — Eloc 21:59, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
lol, no. i'm just getting a little tired... remember, it's night here. - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 22:03, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
True there, lol. How many hours are you ahead of me? I believe Brains is 7 ahead of me, so you being in Germany would be 8-9? — Eloc 22:04, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
idk exactly. are you more to the east or the west? - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 22:10, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Western Canada W:Alberta. — Eloc 22:12, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
i'm 8 hours ahead. - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 22:18, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Ok, I was right. — Eloc 22:19, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
go congratulate yourself :)> - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 22:20, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Your new signature...

I know Nazis had the swastikas pointing in the other direction, but they also used red and black in their flag, so I can't quite help wondering if you are attempting to represent the Nazi ideology through your signature. Could you please shed some light on this, because so far, I'm finding it rather offensive, since what happened back under the Nazi regime was one of the most terrible and sad chapters of the history of mankind. Many people from many different cultures visit this site, and I think a symbol like that should be used in consideration of other peoples feelings towards it. Please know that I also know about the use of this symbol in other cultures, and if its a peaceful message your are representing with it, I apologize. LunarEffect 22:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

He said he would change it, but i agree it is unnecessary ~ KurdUser Kurd sig.png 22:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Guild Wars Wiki talk:Sign your comments#卍's Talk br12 ~ 22:28, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Tribute to some holiday, or something, iirc. Also, it's similar to a swastika, but it's also a sign for good luck in some culture (I forget which ;( ). Definitely not meant to be some sort of tribute to Nazis. Calor - talk 22:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Even if that sign once stood for good luck or whatever it reminds people about nazism as they stole it.--Cursed Angel 22:42, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
If it isn't a swastika, how the hell does it offend you? Lord of all tyria 22:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
No, I'm pretty sure it is a swastika. The words swastika doesn't only refer to the symbol used by the Nazis, its more general in terms of...its a cross with arms that bend at 90° angles. So its not similar to a swastika, nor is it not a swastika, it is a swastika. LunarEffect 22:58, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
The one that I'm using is Japanese for Buddhist temple & Indian for luck. I apologize for offending you, but it's Rememberance day here in Canada and the symbol makes people remember of the evil things the Nazi party did. It will be changed tommorow, and again, it will be changed tommorow. Also, do see Guild Wars Wiki talk:Sign your comments#卍's. It was used for an example there. Again, I do apologize for offending you. — Eloc 23:11, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
ADDED: It's not a Swastica, it's acutally called a Manji. Just incase you're wondering. — Eloc 23:12, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
and it's not the symbol for buddhist temple >:O - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 23:21, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
W:Sauwastika#Claims_of_a_distinction_in_Dharmic_traditions <-- 2nd picture on the right — Eloc 23:37, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
ah, so you meant they're like, the symbol that marks buildings as temples? because i was thinking about the letters. they have symbols as letters :) - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 23:45, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
"what happened back under the Nazi regime was one of the most terrible and sad chapters of the history of mankind." People really need to take more history courses. It wasn't even the most terrible regime of the century, how on earth would it be one of the most terrible period? -Auron 23:47, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
I was going to write a long and elaborate answer about how wrong you are, but after reading your userpage, I wont even bother. LunarEffect 00:11, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Remembrance Day is for World War I. Nazis were World War II. - Tanetris 23:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Oh, ok. Go to User:Eloc Jcg/Sandbox to see what my new sig will look like tommorow. Also, Lunar, the colour schem is a coincidence. — Eloc 23:50, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
In Canada, we use Rememberance day to remember all conflicts, including the current one in the Middle East. — Eloc 23:51, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
You start walking around going "Sieg Heil", we're going to have some issues Eloc... -- scourge 23:52, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
I wont lol. Keep in mind I'm changing the signature tommorow, so there shouldn't be any issues. — Eloc 23:53, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't welcome any more new wiki'ers with that sig Eloc, just incase they think its insulting. Talk br12 ~ 00:03, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, good point. I'll actually change it right now. — Eloc 00:37, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Does this look good? — Eloc 00:39, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Weeaboo? :P -Auron 00:44, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Well, I like it better than the "s" thingys. 貢 means contribution, & トーク means talk, but I just took the last symbol to be lazy. — Eloc 00:48, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Dude your page is Awesome! How do you make your page Protected?Edit:how do you get a signature, Xd i hate being a newb to something.Jordan23140 00:56, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

His page isnt really protected. It's just a fake message. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

ok i found out how to make a signature, but I dont know how to make a page protected.~^v^~Jordan23140~v^~ 00:59, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Only an admin can make a page protected. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

XD me = Wiki Newb--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Jordan23140 .

Ty for the compliment. I like my page too, but it's getting to bug, so I have to shorten it down soon. — Eloc 01:25, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your replies Eloc, I appreciate the time you took to clear things up here. I'm sorry for not replying sooner, but some members here...got me sidetracked... *sigh* LunarEffect 14:39, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Np. — Eloc 01:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Lol I was wondering why your sig said: ku eloc +some kanji I dunno. Looks nice like that tho haha. - nian User Nian Sig.png 21:33, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
