Website

Iirc, you were in charge of the official website.. I just have a small note to give. The link "All Guild Wars news" on http://players.guildwars.com still links to October 2007, instead of January 2008 ;) - anja 10:14, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Eek! That's no good! Thanks for the catch, Anja :) -- Emily Diehl (talk) 23:55, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Website again

Just another tiny thing. If there's a better place to report these things, just point me there :) The top left nav on http://players.guildwars.com has two links back to itself but no link to http://www.guildwars.com. - anja 15:48, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

wierd, it does for me...--The Forsaken One 15:51, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

The guildwars.com link goes back to the gwplayers.-- Brains12 \ Talk 15:59, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks guys...I'll pass it on to the team. And yep, this place is great for letting me know about website bugs. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:25, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Alrighty, this is fixed. Thanks again for pointing it out! -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Eu Sweepstake

Hi Emily, first of all sry if I'm addressing this to the wrong person. Second I have encountered a little problem while filling the EU sweepstake form. On the last question, the one that asks 'Which products would you like to see more of in the merchandising store?' I chose Statues/Figures. However when I clicked on the submit button, the form didn't accept it, reset the answer of that question, and told me to choose an answer. After trying for 7 times I gave up and chose Gadgets, where finally the form was submitted. I wanted to bring it to your attention. --Mage Montu 22:20, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback, Mage. I'll pass it along to the EU team. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:22, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Wow that was fast :P Thnx Emily ^^ --Mage Montu 22:23, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Btw cute birds you have on your page, Birds are my fav house pets *pats Gili his pet cockatiel* --Mage Montu 22:35, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks :) My birds are really awesome little guys. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:40, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Hiya, I tried this last night (EU), and encountered a similar problem with the "What's your favourite product in the online store", I chose skill packs, but the form wouldn't go through despite 2 attempts, so in the end i chose BMP and it did. Data minings gonna be a bit skewed from this questionaire ;-) --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 12:02, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Heya guys...I got an email this morning saying that the issue should be resolved. If anyone else runs into issues, let me know and I will pass them along. Thanks for the feedback and catching that stuff :) -- Emily Diehl (talk) 19:09, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Gr8, thnx Emily and thank the EU team for me :) --Mage Montu 08:11, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Uh Oh...

I think I may have found a bug in the main website ([1]). I searched for NPCs and I got this. Is it something with IE or is it the website? Either way I would say it may need to be fixed.... (btw I placed the red ring in there) --Shadowphoenix 22:57, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

IE. Just tested it, and it works fine on FF2. Lord Belar 23:04, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Tested both on IE and FF. It seems the prob is with IE only. --MageMontu 15:57, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, thanks for the report Shadowphoenix. I'll pass it over to the team. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 20:45, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Website RSS

The game updates, and news rss feeds on the guildwars site, do not work in IE anymore. It says "feed format not supported". Dominator Matrix 22:02, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh noes! Thanks for the report, Dominator. I'll take a look and see what happened to them. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:09, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Alrighty, I think I fixed it. If you still have the issue, please let me know! And again, thanks for giving me the heads up about it. I'm not sure how that even happened in the first place. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 23:29, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Yup, Fixed. Thanks! :) Dominator Matrix 23:31, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Wiki links on guildwars.com

Hey Emily, I just wanted to say that I love () the new links to the wiki from the official website :) Thanks for that ^^ poke | talk 20:38, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome :) I put them in, thought about it a while, and almost took them out because I was worried they looked cheesy XD Then I asked AJ and Reagan what they thought, and they loved the links, so we just gave em a custom color and ran with it. By the way, I love the template...haha!! -- Emily Diehl (talk) 21:00, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Hehe, I think because of the braces it might look a bit weird to people from the outside (non-wiki-people :P) but I think that is fine ^^

And yeah, Pling/Brains did that lovely template (or rather the image :P). poke | talk 21:11, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

A little heads up

The link to the GW2 FAQ on players.guildwars.com is invalid. The one on www.guildwars.com does work. BlazeRick 14:24, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Fixed! Thanks for the heads up, BlazeRick :) -- Emily Diehl (talk) 22:00, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

RSS problems

Emily, the RSS feeds for the guild wars site are going werid again. There doing 2 things a) don't deliver the updated content to IE7 feeds (appears as its not updated, though the feeds are). or b) don't send all of the rss feeds contents EG. The play news (its like its not there...). It could be rss feeds not liking IE7, not the right format, header syncing problems, or something else. Yet even oddly if I go to the website and click on the rss feeds the contents there. If it helps "Internet Explorer supports RSS 0.91, 1.0, and 2.0, and ATOM .3, 1.0. All web feed formats are based on XML". Or this could just be another Microsoft problem. So I need to see if its the site, or the application having problems. Thanks. Dominator Matrix 01:58, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the report, Dominator. I'll ask the person that works on the feeds to take a look at it first thing in the morning. I'll let you know what he finds. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 02:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

I'll assume the person found something, as there working normal again. Dominator Matrix 00:12, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Yep, this should be fixed! Thanks again for the heads up. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 17:57, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Prediction Problems

Hey Emily, I have a small problem with the xunlai prediction. Every time I make my predictions and hit the save button, i get an empty screen. When i try to go back to the main xunlai page, it says that i haven't predicted yet. Hope that's a clear explanation ^^ --MageMontu 09:22, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm getting the same thing. I've tried it in Firefox and IE (XP and Vista) with the same results. Hopefully this gets fixed soon so we can make our predictions! (Must... open... Zaishen... Chest... o_O) Kokuou 10:45, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I was just about to report this, and I see someone beat me to it ^^; — Poki#3 Image:User Poki Signature.jpg 11:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

It looks like the "save" button is actually a logout or login button, instead of the correct javascript submit command. ("/competitive/xunlai_tournament_house/login.php?lang=en" instead of "javascript:document.saveBallotForm.submit()") --JonTheMon 12:33, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Muahahahahaha poki i beat you to it :P, anyway I got bk from holidays, I rushed in my room to make the prediction before i forget and I find that, and I was all QQ :P. Jking aparts, I hope they fix it before predictions time is over --MageMontu 13:16, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks guys! I'll pass this along and we'll take a look at it. -- Emily Diehl (talk) 19:06, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

It seems it got fixed, thnx Emily and the team, you guys are the best --MageMontu 07:29, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Anytime! Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for the report. This was part of a larger issue, so it was great to get the heads up :) -- Emily Diehl (talk) 04:02, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
