Caps

They matter on pages (Protectors Of Tyria Kingdom, as opposed to Protectors of Tyria Kingdom), so I think they matter on images when they refer to their specific page. I won't revert the change though, just in case I am wrong. I'm looking into it... --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:30, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

You beat me to posting on your page. I wasn't sure either. Using your reasoning, it seems right to delete. I'll go ask on IRC. Calor Talk 01:32, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Speaking of IRC, do you know how/where to get an IRC plug-in for Firefox, if such one exists? --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:33, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I use FF, but no, I don't. Googling around a bit should find one, if it exists. Calor Talk 01:35, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I found one. --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:36, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I may adopt that onto my browser..hmm... Calor Talk 01:38, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Wait, (total noobism), where is it, the link for the IRC that is? --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:39, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
On that page? The big green thing that says install now right in the center of the page. Calor Talk 01:41, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
No, no, for this wiki's IRC. Sorry for the misunderstanding. --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:42, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I had a feeling, as you don't strike me as that dumb. This wiki's IRC is #gww on irc.gamesurge.net. I use HydraIRC, but there are a few IRC applications that can be downloaded after a bit of searching. I haven't figured the IRC UI and functions out yet, besides the basic stuff, so I don't know much more than that. You'd be better off asking Aiiane or Dir or Tanetris or Poke for something like that. Calor Talk 01:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Argh, wait, is there a specific link I can click on to direct me directly to the one for GWW? Sorry if I'm troubling you. --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Not that I know of. And it doesn't annoy me, it makes me look popular for having a rapidly enlarging talk page ;) Calor Talk 01:54, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Hmm, well how do you access it? Is it like a bookmark in the program you have? --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 01:54, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
No, I start HydraIRC. I press CTRL + S, which brings up a prompt allowing you to choose which server to connect to. Then I type in http://irc.gamesurge.net, and the irc.gamesurge.net channel comes up. Type in /gww to join GWW's channel. First time users need to create identities first for HydraIRC, though. Sorry for any bad terminology. Calor Talk 01:57, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Hmm, still confused, but I'll figure it out eventually. Ever think when you're surfing on this wiki and having a conversation with me and you see the New Message icon and just say to yourself "Hmm, maybe FF didn't refresh properly," just to find out you do have a new message? (I don't type that fast do I?) I just thought about that... --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 02:03, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
No. Although the New Messages sign often annoys me, so I use the amazing Firebug and get rid of it until I feel like seeing what people are complaining to me about. Calor Talk 02:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Why does the new messages sign annoy you? I love it :D — Eloc 06:06, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
irc://irc.gamesurge.net/gww --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 14:46, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Brains. And Eloc, bright yellow-orange on a white background while trying to read black text on said background can become quite painful to the eyes. Calor Talk 19:38, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I think Anja's monobook.css changes the appearance of that message box. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 21:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Seems like it does, looking over the code. I don't care that much though. Calor Talk 21:06, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Userpage

So ya, I'm going to start a new section because I'm that cool . Anyways, you mispelled something on your userpage. If I correct it can I be in your thanks section? :P — Eloc 01:53, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Go right ahead. Calor Talk 01:55, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
Pff, didn't even give me a chance to correct them. — Eloc 02:32, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
*whistles* Hm? What? Calor Talk 02:34, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Happy Vday!

Happy Valentines Day Calor XD --Shadowphoenix File:User-Shadowphoenix Heart1.jpg 23:39, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Rofl. Same to you too :) Calor Talk 00:41, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Why with the rofl? --Shadowphoenix File:User-Shadowphoenix Heart1.jpg 01:32, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Unexpected, to say the least. Thanks though, Calor Talk 03:06, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
thats just super cute --Cursed Angel talk 00:20, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
How so...... --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 20:56, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello!

I'm just gonna make a complete nuiscence of myself and waste my own time with this on ur page!(can u tell i'm mad?)--Sum Mesmer GuyMesmer 20:17, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Uh, hi. And if you're going to sign with the Mesmer image, you need to reupload it as your own file following user image naming conventions. A good name would be "User Sum Mesmer Guy sig.jpg". Thanks, Calor Talk 20:19, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Commenting on your stupidity, and Dwarves

I blah at your stupidity too :P --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 00:36, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Wtf is up with the header? I changed it :p Calor Talk 00:37, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
What was wrong with it? Too short? --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 00:40, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Since when is "I" a legitimate topic header? Calor Talk 00:43, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

You may want a consistent capitalisation for the page headings for those dwarves. You have Footman (Dwarf) and Archer (dwarf) --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 00:49, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I noticed. Morituris made the archer one a few weeks ago. Should we do lowercase or uppercase? Calor Talk 00:50, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
I don't know, I don't like getting into format discussions. I've been seeing some Article (necromancer) but also some Article (Necromancer), so I'm not really sure. Perhaps a new topic at GWWT:FORMAT? --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 00:53, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Blah. I'll start a topic there. Calor Talk 00:53, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

You type too fast. :p I do that all the time, but you'll need to go back and put in three tildes. -- Armond WarbladeUser Armond sig image.png 19:55, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Meh. I've done that loads of times. Thanks, (with four tildes) Calor Talk 19:59, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Eh, I haven't failed yet. Calor Talk 22:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Great now i have been deafened by the awful sound of 80's music --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 22:21, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Speakers are off here :D Calor Talk 23:16, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Well I wish mine would have been off when i clicked the link XD --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 03:08, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Mine are off because ESPN is always on next to me. Calor Talk 03:10, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
You must be of the male species lol --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 03:13, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Hence my page saying "Gender — Male" ;) Calor Talk 03:14, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Yet again for liking sports you have Falied At Everything! --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 03:16, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Colouuuuuurs

U iz theef? --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:33, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Eh, I realized that doing the changes now and only having to do two things later is a whole load easier (if not a kill to my contribution count). But yes, I did steal your general idea. And I changed the topic because ou looks so wrong. Calor Talk 02:34, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
You're just lazy :P--User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:36, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I'm also American. In the case you haven't figured it out, those two are packaged. Calor Talk 02:37, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Meh, I stole it from Lemming (and just saw the addition to your first post after I saved) --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:38, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Lol --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:38, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I need to work on that. I always think of something I missed half a second after I press the save button. Calor Talk 02:39, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I'm exactly the same, even after pressing Show Preview.. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:41, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Eh, must come with sleeplessness. 02:47, Brains. Although I have to admit you're staying up late has proven useful, as you and me apparently are on the wiki at approximately the same hours. Calor Talk 02:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Yeah. Was just thinking I was going to go actually, but I'll stay a coupla minutes longer. For you. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:45, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
And btw, you do realise the CURRENTTIME will change, right? Reading this later might be a little odd. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:45, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, I guess. And what's up with the topic? It sounds like a drunk with a British accent trying to say "colors". And I realize it will change, but it's useful for now. Who reads my archives anyways? Calor Talk 02:47, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Didn't think you noticed the topic lol. But yeah, I see what you mean about archives. In a few years, maybe, when some average joe wants to find out more about Mighty Bureaucrat Calor who's the 1337 of GW2W, he'll come to realise that his idol is nothing. Because of a lousy CURRENTTIME and a stupid header.
Wanna subst it now? --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:50, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Already Subst'd. Didn't think those type of templates (pagename, currentday, currentime, etc.) could be substituted. And I'd be shit for bureaucrat because I'd lose my temper too easy. My chances of being sysop > bureaucrat. And now it sounds like two drunks in a chorus at four AM with a British accent. Calor Talk 02:53, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
There's a chance for everything. Who knows, CA might just become the new Tanaric. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:55, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Sure. And Fidel Castro will be the patron saint of democracy. Calor Talk 02:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Rofl (going now, bye)--User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 03:01, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Oh, and I've never seen you lose your temper before. Liar. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 03:03, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
I try not to on the wiki, and I'm fairly successful. But see the summaries on the edit history of Template:Guild. Calor Talk 03:04, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

OMG help

I cant get thsi table thing right for the birthday page im am cluless could u please help --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg

Lol, I've been working on it for a few minutes. Almost done, need to tweak a few things. Calor Talk 04:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
ty ty ty it looks great, never send a blonde to make a table on a computer (the blonde would be me lol) --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 04:32, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
*checks sandy brown hair* No problem. Calor Talk 04:33, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry I like to make fun of the blonde species even though i am one lol --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 04:37, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Nice. I blondeproofed it, so to say, with directions a blind illiterate person could follow. Calor Talk 04:39, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Even better would be a drop down list for months, a blank field for user name, and a button! Hah, just kidding. --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 04:41, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Funny, I was contemplating if that was worth my time. But I don't think it's possible unless we got Poke to do it. And this isn't worth Poke's time. Calor Talk 04:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
lmao to all --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 04:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Spider Eggs

LoL your comment on your fix to the page cracked me up. – User Barinthus Magical Compass.png Barinthus 06:25, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, a friend of mine who is...fond of pyrotechnical demonstrations constantly preaches that "Anything can burn". So true :). And the eggs were still burning. Calor Talk 15:49, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

I like

the new color when i tried to make it yellow it ended up a putrid color that almost blinded me lol --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 22:17, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Eh, yellow's always a good birthday color. I used a 4096 color wheel to find a light shade. Calor Talk 00:07, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

New message

Hey, could you give me a message on my talk please, I want to test out Anja's usermessage code thingy. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 01:30, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Your turn now. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 01:54, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. Mine works well. Not as glaring as before. Calor Talk 02:08, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Talking about the yellow new message thing? --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 03:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Had a look at your CSS Calor/Brains and was wondering what that last line does, don't have a new message at the moment so can't check. --Kakarot Talk 03:24, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
I don't think it does anything. Calor Talk 03:29, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
If you mean the position thingy, it moves the message up to where the page headers are but on the right side of the page. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 14:51, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Hey, since you seem to be online can you send me a quick message on my talk page. I want to test out the css I have and for some reason it seems to be screwed up a bit Galil's message page and I want to test with a proper message to see if it's any different. --Kakarot Talk 21:00, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Guide to playing as a dervish

I thought an apostraphe was only used to give the same meaning as the word is. Like Dervish's would be Dervish is. — Eloc 02:59, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't feel like getting into a lesson on grammar. But no. Like Eloc's page refers to the page that Eloc owns. I believe the page was saying "Scythe Mastery is the Dervish's main line of damage". Scythe Mastery is the main line of damage that the Dervish owns (or uses). What you're saying is a contraction. What was proper in that sentence was a possessive. Blah, goodnight. Calor Talk 03:04, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Learn your apostrophe's Eloc. And your, comma's. Sigh. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 15:58, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Oh, and your spalling. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 16:00, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Learn to indent, Brains ;) Calor Talk 20:18, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
I was using the correct indent - one after Eloc's, showing that it is to him I am responding. :) --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 20:21, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Blah. I know that's how it's supposed to be done, but I like seeing seperation between comments :( Oh well. Calor Talk 20:22, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry :( --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 20:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

See where it says style="background:#606;? You need to change that 606 to change the background purple color to some other color. At least, I think that's what you're trying to do. :D Kokuou 02:31, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
oooooooooo u look at it now it si ruined ooooooo --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 02:32, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, I used one of Fall's link to aid in the tagging. As you can likely tell, I have way too much free time! --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 02:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Yep. Blatantly obious ;) Calor Talk 02:27, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Im confused whats going on? --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 02:29, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
There's a giant block of edits I did tagging images for naming. You might need to view it under 100 or 200 to see it.--People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 02:45, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Yeah. i used to do runs like that, then got sick of it. Calor Talk 02:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
It gives me something to do, and ironically, it was one of the things I was contacted for first. --People of Antioch talk User People of Antioch sig.png 02:53, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Yeah. It's a simple, highly repetitive task. It helps new users get familiar with the wiki while actively editing. Calor Talk 02:55, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Look at my newest userbox! XD

User-Shadowphoenix Wrong.jpg When ever Calor brings up ban or block this user likes to bring up Dictionary.com

That's good :) Calor Talk 03:08, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

er...

.dat is a image extension? Antiarchangel 00:09, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Lol no. That naming syntax is for Guild Wars Wiki:Projects/Inventory icons for armor pieces extracted from GW.Dat. The images from the .dat are solely of the armor piece with no background distracting from it. Calor Talk 00:12, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
Ok I got you, thanks. Antiarchangel 00:15, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
No problem :) Calor Talk 00:18, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
Images from the dat are .pngs (and in this case it already exists at Image:Mesmer Elite Kurzick Mask f.png), this is a .jpg. The image is appropriate for the name. - Tanetris 00:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
Technically, yes, it's appropriate, but the whole purpose of the project was to upload icons from the .Dat to have clean image galleries like renders. Calor Talk 00:22, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
I need to pay more attention to links. I see, Tanetris. Thanks, Calor Talk 00:23, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

mysterious armor pieces

are you sure that isn't when you have more than 1? --LemmingUser Lemming64 sigicon.png 01:53, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Positive. I got more of them, and took a screenie of just one in my inventory while mousing over it. I'll upload it at Image:User Calor armor pieces.jpg. Calor Talk 02:24, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Firebug for Fx3

http://justtalkaboutweb.com/2008/02/11/firebug-for-firefox-3/Galil Talk page 18:07, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank you :). I had heard there was a new version of Firebug for FF3, but I couldn't find it (mind you I hastily searched for all of three minutes). Calor Talk 18:08, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
First result on google for "firebug firefox 3". Time spent; roughly 10 seconds. ;) — Galil Talk page 18:15, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Meh, I went straight to the Firefox site. Never even bothered with google. Then I went to the Firebug page, and didn't look hard enough for a link to the newest version :( Calor Talk 18:30, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Though you could also browse to about:config, right click and add a new boolean value named extensions.checkCompatibility and set it to false. Then you can install any extension, but you'll have to suit yourself if it doesn't behave the way it should. :P — Galil Talk page 18:48, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
And you expected an eighth grader just beginning to poke his head into computer programming to know that? Though that is very useful, I'll have to keep it in mind. Thanks, Calor Talk 18:53, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Nope, not expecting that. Thus telling you. ;) — Galil Talk page 19:01, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Even Mozilla says that it's not abbreviated to FF. They say if you're going to abbreviate it, use Fx.
