Hall of Monuments
To do: This would yield 45 points -- Chieftain  Alex 14:53, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Minis (3)
 * Goren, Razah, Hayda, Vekk, Ogden, Pyre Anton
 * Vabbian Armor
 * 4 destroyer/oppressor weapons
 * Currently on 49 points, 50 would require me to:

-- Chieftain  Alex 15:13, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Buy 9 Miniatures - probably mini Ox/rat/pig and a bunch of year 4/5s.
 * Create another 4 weapons for the Hall of Monuments
 * Get obsidian armor on my mesmer.
 * Get one more miniature. I'll be waiting on the 5th year birthday on the Elementalist/Mesmer/Warrior - then I'll have 50/50 HoM :D
 * I've got 51. [[Image:User Anvil_God_AsuraSignature.jpg|15px]] Anvi God  zzz...  00:31, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Carto
My apologies. I checked again and my unexploring toon actually shows more than 0%. (I looked at the bottom instead of the middle of the list.) I'm pretty sure that there used to be a lot of titles that didn't display until you had made substantial progress, but clearly there's only the one title left. Soz for doubting. — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 08:33, 29 April 2011 (UTC)


 * No worries - I'm wondering what to call the HM quest for Galrath atm.. and whether or not the Bandits get different pages for the Monk, Sin, Mes and Nec versions.. might start a copy somewhere. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 08:38, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually I'll create a new row on the tonic navbar instead :p --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 08:39, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Your guild...
The [XIII] - what was the name of it? Kaisha  18:46, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Its reformed under "Gil Worz is Srs [Bsns]" or something of that ilk. "Tha Thirteenth [XIII]" was the name of the guild at time I last updated that bit. I do still pve with them though I've gone rogue because I can't stand their blank cape. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 18:49, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, The guild I'm in uses [XII] tag. It's a latin language for I think don't wake the sleeping dragon. Can't remember. It's on my userspace (the actual guild name). Kaisha  User Kaisha Sig.png 03:59, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm google translate says "Never a sleeping dragon" + last word doesn't seem to have any translation anywhere. Also pretty queer to have a Harry Potter reference in your guild name no? {apparently hogwart's supposed motto} --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 09:32, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't think so. Am an hp fan so... :-P It doesn't bother me that much. ^.^  Kaisha  User Kaisha Sig.png 14:58, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

I stole it again.  Anvil   God  01:00, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Tasers

 * context

Sigh. Where? And when? (But can it wait until I commit Seppuku?) (Thanks for catching my mistake and fixing it.) — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 18:15, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 * lol don't worry no harm done. Just thought oh gee red link on main page when I saw it ^^ and about 10 seconds later a random IP made a nice page to fix the link. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 18:22, 16 May 2011 (UTC)


 * It was bone headed: I remembered to check/recheck Ice Dome vs Icedome, got Icy correct on one of the edits, and forgot to double-check the more important one. (I keep wishing that the Nick page and the main page would read the same source file, so that we only have to edit one article to update this. Fortunately, not that many more weeks of this.) — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 18:24, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah I couldn't even find the page from linking through the activities box, had to use recent changes.. I've still no idea how half the DPL stuff for that works --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 18:28, 16 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I think of it as similar to how I power up the laptop: I have some vague notion of energy generation, energy transmission, internal power supplies, etc., but for all intents and purposes, I pay my power bill and plug in the laptop. I'm happy that DPL works, but don't ask me to explain it. — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 20:02, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

the fish
I know, I saw that typo too after I sent it. But I was like, I'm not gonna make another edit for just ONE typo lol. Try to push big ones through first. Thanks though. Previously Unsigned 23:27, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Your Vote on P/A Dagger Spammer
It's dagger spam. Why D:? Deals like 3x more damage than spears and not everyone can be as pro as Razah and change their profession.  Anvi God  zzz...  01:38, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * ( Bring it up on pvx :p ) but Daggerspam sucks on non assassin (or ranger at a push but I can't help but think theres a better ranger alternative somewhere :/ )
 * Professions using Daggerspam:


 * Monk - no advantage squishy - you do get seed of life but its only one skill and you're probably running 16 spec SoH and 12 daggers.
 * War - the fuck. get an axe or 100b your face off.No
 * Ranger - expertise so yes its ok on these.Yes
 * Dervish - scythes. you're doing it wrong if you have daggersNo
 * Paragon - imba ... if you have more than one paragon in a group, you're doing pve wrong. paragons ARE NOT DPS profs. red
 * Necro - soul reaping poses very little gain for you, a squishy frontliner No
 * Mesmer - no advantage squishy. red
 * Assassin - critical strikes pwn. Yes
 * I feel very strongly that as a support class, the paragon should be covering the Backline in shouts - if hes dashing with daggers in the midst of shit, his backline isn't covered with shouts. Hence useless for party unless hes wielding a ranged weapon. Lower DPS than a ranger or assassin. TPiY is crap without some kind of dedicated echo spammer using Finale of Restoration. Asuran scan nerf hurt other classes doing frontliner roles, and true - spears were hurt a lot too. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 01:51, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

And just like that, your credibility is shot. elix Omni 10:32, 28 May 2011 (UTC) Consider this build as a solution to the problem of paragons being boring to play. -- Hong 11:50, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Monk, Necro, and Mesmers -zzz... they're bad 不好！
 * Wars - Daggers deals a shitload more damage than axes and is better for uncoordinated stuff 好！
 * Ranger - 好！
 * Dervish - neutral zzz...不知道
 * Paragon - Most areas don't require SY!  Although the para is meant to be a support class, in most situations, the damage will be better than a copy of SY. and quite frankly, paragons need a damage bar on PvX. [[Image:User Anvil_God_AsuraSignature.jpg|15px]] Anvi God   zzz...  02:08, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * If you're not managing to ball stuff in pve enough that 100b isn't superior in every situation, you're doing pve wrong. Frankly every paragon build is inferior to imba. If the area is NM or doesn't require the godlike protection of SY - its a pissweak area and you could run whatever you like and just be a useless dependent on your heroes. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 10:22, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * "if you have more than one paragon in a group, you're doing pve wrong."
 * And just like that you've proved you're not pugging pve. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 10:33, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * 7 heroes, why would I pug? [[Image:User_Felix_Omni_Signature.png]]elix Omni 10:38, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Why would I be running with 7 heroes as a paragon when they're so goddam boring to play? :/ If I've chosen to play the paragon I have.. its because I'm expecting to pug and I get some kicks out of it. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 10:41, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Take Morgahn and Hayda, you'll be invincible. [[Image:User_Felix_Omni_Signature.png]]elix Omni 10:42, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I run triple ROJ, E-surge, ineptitude, no backline dedicated healers, and usually SOS and communing rit. Mms are for people who don't appreciate how shit their aggroing skills become with one. I'd rather have another RoJ over some paragon any day :/ I can take fall back on pretty much 2/3 smiters, the inep - same for SYG. theres no real reason to run a paragon with RoJ setup. (in case you're wondering it blows everything up) --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 10:45, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * "Why would I be running with 7 heroes as a paragon when they're so goddam boring to play?"
 * I'd rather switch characters to my sin if I'm gonna go daggers. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 12:01, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks.
For feeling like it. &mdash; Raine Valen    20:01, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Not a problem to bash the delete key for a few paragraphs. Some strange outdated suggestions on there like Mel's resilience and cyclone axe with IW.. :) [[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 20:08, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Talk Page
Why can't you clear your own talk page, when, where and who decided that? As for the Show Preview button I use it often (you should know I do much more changes than shown), but I'm on somewhat slow internet connection and I mark every update as minor change so it can be filtered away for just that reason. Not sure how other people let their updates go unknown if they sit and work around with coding for an entire day. I'm new to the wiki (and wiki in general) so maybe I missed something. --Jackie 17:55, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * GWW:TALK theres the talk page thing + don't worry about the minor edits thing, just its rare to see more than 10 edits on the same page - 28 seemed a bit high. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 17:59, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah yeah, read that just now. Sorry, hadn't seen that before. As for the edits I think I had even more this morning when I completely missed the minor edits button, now they're at least filterable. By the way, while I have someone who seems a bit experienced on the line; is there a way to make an external named link without getting the kind of fugly box thing with the link? I hope you know what I mean. Jackie 18:05, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmm I know what you mean with the little box, you can name your link by putting a space after the web address followed by whatever you wish to name the link e.g. This would produce This but I can't think of a way to remove the box after it :( sorry --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 18:16, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Stupid box :(, can I ask you some more questions while I'm on it, I love learning and I love asking questions when I'm new!
 * How do I easily find my way back to someones (e.g this) talk page? Atm, I'm using My Talk -> History -> Your link, to get back.
 * Is there an easy way to reach templates that exist on the wiki, other than accidentaly running in to them as I've done?
 * Any easy way to reach back to certain users, something like a friendlist?
 * Jackie 18:28, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry for my lurking, but I figured I could answer a couple.
 * For the arrow in external links, see w:Help:Link, that basically answers it and shows how to get rid of the icon. I like it included however, makes sure the reader knows they're leaving GWW.
 * The way to get to talk pages I use is either directly through their signature if they link to it, or go to their main user space (e.g. User:Farlo) and click the Discussion/Talk tab at the top of the page.
 * If you see a template used on a page, the easiest way I found is to go to Edit for that page, and underneath the edit box and the Please Note section, there is a list of all the templates used on that page. (For example, since I'm using the "Yes" (Yes) template and the template to link to it, those all now appear in the list.) ~FarloUser Farlo Triad.png Talk 18:48, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot for the answers, that's very helpful of you! I have another question which is driving me sort of crazy;
 * Anyone knows the hex-code for "Necromancer Green"? As can be seen on my Userpage in the HoM-related part. I don't have Photoshop at the moment so I can't check it easily. Jackie 19:45, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * An even easier way to check all the profession colors used as standard is here. You can also find out any info about the template you used if you go to Edit on the template page itself, found through the list of templates on the Edit page of your user space.  ~FarloUser Farlo Triad.png Talk 23:08, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow thanks, hadn't seen that page before, what a life saver! Thanks a lot! :D
 * Jackie 08:18, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Glad to help :D ~FarloUser Farlo Triad.png Talk 16:43, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Is
the GwPVX down? Stupid Curse network. Deprived of my playground for 24 hours :(.  Anvi God  zzz...  02:43, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

 * So why did you guys leave Wikia again? -- Hong 11:58, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * [Because they're a bunch of fags..] erm we were having issues with their staff banning our admins >.> + we can have more control over how its run or some stuff like that. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 12:16, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

When
Did you need to have 100 contributions to vote?  Anvi God  zzz...  23:00, 27 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Just before the voting starts. See GWW:ELECT. — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 23:14, 27 June 2011 (UTC)


 * It stops people sockpuppeting, trolls from voting and you know.. intentionally friendly but otherwise troll-like people :D --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 23:36, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Also @TEF, wondering if GWW has some kind of statistics page about individual users with their overall edit count and the number of edits in each mainspace. i've seen a screenshot of it but can't find it. (maybe its an admin thing) --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 23:38, 27 June 2011 (UTC)


 * The closest I've seen is on Special Pages, but ask Mendel; if anyone knows, it will be he. — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 23:51, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Positives of Dressup are that you could potentially do all the Armor renders for free which would finish a significant amount of the armor project. There are certain users here who have access to Anet owned accounts which can do just that (without DressUp), but I can't really say much more. That's really all I was told as well. I too am dying for some official Guild Wars DressUp examination/official approval. Instead of new quests (which are all just mindlessly mobs, nothing new there!), they should do something ~NEW~ incorporate DressUp into the game or tell us if we can use it.
