First!

Hi.:P A F K When Needed 12:48, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you with help with some of my subpages. Kalizar, Lord of War 01:31, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

I apologize

I'm sorry that you feel you have to revert all my edits, but the trivia really does damage the credibility of this wiki. 71.125.141.64 01:39, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

How so? --Dominator Matrix 01:40, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

It's trivial. 71.125.141.64 01:41, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Want a fuckin medal for that one sherlock?Briar 01:41, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Watch the personal attacks please. 71.125.141.64 01:42, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

That wasnt a personal attack. Drogo Boffin 01:44, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

The implication was that I'm stupid. Also, swear words are inherently offensive. 71.125.141.64 01:45, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Well then its a good thing theres no fucking rules against fucking cussing on the fucking wiki eh?? Stop beating around the bush. Of fucking course trivia is trivial. thats why its called trivia. When you make a valid argument that isnt just stating the obvious There may be a discussion about this. As it stands EVERYONE that currently uses the wiki dissagrees with you. So quit it. Btw hiding behind an IP address and not at least making a crappy name for yourseslf doesnt help your credibility. Briar 01:48, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

My initial comment was clearly facetious. The joke is on you for making such a big deal out of a comment that virtually everyone would realize is tongue-in-cheek. 71.125.134.143 01:51, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Gonna block me too? Drogo Boffin 01:52, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Done for today

Hi Kakarot. Just letting you that I'm done editing for today. Your vigilance at blocking me is commendable albeit misguided. 71.125.147.98 01:59, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Fancy troll has good grammar skillz. FYI dude anything and everything you do can and will be undone no matter how many times you do it. Once again. 1 IP address VS a entire world full of round the clock users that have only to click "undo" to make you and everything youve done go away. Good day sir. /salute. Briar 02:01, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi there, don't mind me. I just like to say i found all this quite entertaining, thank you--BobbyT 02:03, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Happy Birthday!

Congratulations Kakarot ^^ -- Cyan 00:50, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Happy birthday :) — Why 15:20, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Happy Birthday Kakarot :) poke | talk 15:45, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks guys :) --Kakarot 11:29, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Happy (belated) Birthday Goku...er...Kakarot! -- Lacky 11:55, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Attention

You are nominated, right here. -- Cyan 19:22, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Just noting you're allowed to accept/decline whenever you want, don't worry :P – Emmett 04:21, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the confirmation Emmett :) --Kakarot 17:19, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

minipet template

hi the new celestial tiger is missing on your template Hamster bryan 18:21, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

I'll probably get around to adding it tomorrow as I haven't been active on the wiki for a day or two so have lots to get caught up on first. But thanks for the reminder as always :) --Kakarot 03:29, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

youre welcome Hamster bryan 00:42, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

your festivalheats template is missing the xmas heads Hamster bryan 01:23, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Went ahead and did it for you [: Hope I didn't break anything –alistic 01:28, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Added the tiger to my minipet template and made a minor fix to the festive hats template but thanks for the help Balistic :) --Kakarot 17:19, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Any chance this template could be updated with the missing minis? I know for sure it is missing the Celestial Dragon, and I suspect more. I peeked at the coding for it, but I suspect I would make it worse rather than better. I have looked through the lists of miniatures available and compared it to this template. Trying to make it easier for anyone who is willing to tackle trying to update this.
White Miniatures Missing: Cobalt Scabara, Fire Drake, Ophil Nahualli, Scourge Manta, Seer, Shard Wolf, Siege Devourer, Summit Giant Herder, for a total of 40 White Minis.
Purple Miniatures Missing: Candysmith Marley, Oola, Ventari, for a total of 19 Purple Minis.
Gold Miniatures Missing: King Adelbern, Zhu Hanuku, Minister Reiko, Ecclesiate Xun Rao, Evennia, Livia, Princess Salma, Guild Lord, Ghostly Priest, Rift Warden, High Priest Zhang, Celestial Rabbit, Celestial Dragon, Celestial Snake, Celestial Horse, Celestial Sheep, Celestial Monkey, Celestial Rooster, Celestial Dog, World-Famous Racing Beetle, Legionnaire, for a total of 46 Gold Minis.
Green Miniatures Missing: Confessor Dorian, Confessor Isaiah, Peacekeeper Enforcer, M.O.X., The Frog [Halloween], The Frog [Wintersday], for a total of 21 Gold Minis.
Bloody Riz (talk) 02:31, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Considering his last edit was in 2010, it's probably missing all the minis added after that. And it's also unlikely he'll be back to add more. -Auron 03:47, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

That is why I asked if there was anyone who was willing to try it to do it. I might have to do it myself, but will not until I get more familiar with the coding. Bloody Riz (talk) 02:46, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Here's what you need to do. Most importantly, when you do this, always use "Show preview" to check that everything works and looks as it should. Only when you are finished, click "Save page". As long as you "Show preview", you don't need to be afraid of breaking anything because you're not saving it, so this is also useful for finding out what a certain code part does by trial and error.

When you look at the code, you will first find this: {{Progress bar|min=0|max=32|current={{{white|0}}}|progression-text=white ({{{white|0}}}/32)|desc=white miniatures collected|bar-background=moccasin|box-width=200px|text-size=8pt}}. These lines encode the progress bars at the top and you need to replace the "max" numbers with the new ones (twice, once in max=32 and once in ({{{white|0}}}/32).

Underneath this, you will find the same code block being repeated over and over again - once for each miniature:

| style="background:{{User:Kakarot/Colours|mainbg}}" |  
| [[Image:Miniature Shiro.png|32px]]
| [[Miniature Shiro|<span style="color:black">'''Shiro Tagachi'''</span>]]
| align="center" | {{{{{Shiro|no}}}}}

Have a look at how the code reflects the table: in the code, all miniatures within one line from left to right are underneath each other, followed by a |-. This symbol creates a table line break.

Note also that the first mini in each table line is missing the first code line |style="...". This line creates the small empty space between the miniatures within one line.

You simply have to copy and paste this code block once for each new miniature and then replace (1) the image file name "Image:Miniature Shiro.png", (2) the wiki page name "Miniature Shiro", (3) the full name "Shiro Tagachi", and (4) the variable name "Shiro" (this last one you choose yourself).

Next, add the table line breaks |- after every 5 minis.

Finally, after you have saved, include the new variable names you just created (number (4) from earlier) on your own user page where you include the template. To be courteous, it would also be nice if you could add them to the copy-and-paste ready text on the template page at the very bottom :)

- Y0_ich_halt 09:22, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

OK I did a lot of peeking, and figured it out. There is now an updated version of this checklist at User:Bloody_Riz/Miniatures which has all the missing minis on it. Bloody Riz (talk) 17:49, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Help me out with a Userbox pls

Hey Kakarot could you help me out with a Userbox I am trying to make a userbox for steam like a the Xfire one here this is how far I got here ,I am sure you can do this ,I am stuck with few thing as I don't Understand how to do the code that the name changes for the link to the profile page. thx --GreatNeji Hyuga 15:19, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

User Character Page

I am attempting to use your template for my Character page, but I am running into problems. First, the experience section is kinda confusing, I finally found where to put the current exp, but having troubles getting it to say level 20. Second, Trying to add my first mini pet, a Burning Titan, but after entering it in the 3 required places, it still says None on the grid. Third, I have Tyrian Cartographer at 70% but I don't see where to put that in. My page is here: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Salvorin_Fex/Characters. Can you pleas etake a look and modify so I can see what to do for these sections, Thank you SOOO much. --Salvorin Fex 21:16, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Wow, you've actually copied the code of the entire template. If you want to use Kakarot's template you only need to copy the code in the Usage block and fill it in according to the Parameter Info. — Why 22:14, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

I tried that the first time but I changed the first line...My Bad.

Now that I left that line alone the filling in of stuff is much easier, Thank you.

Since I just got my 5th year present I think the template will have to be updated. --Salvorin Fex 23:47, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Also, How would I list armor that is made up of different pieces, i.e. Luxon Vest, Studded Leather Leggings,Fur Lined Gloves and Fur Lined Boots? --Salvorin Fex 00:32, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

I don't think that's possible with the current template. Chances are that Kakarot will update it once he reads this (hey Kakarot! :D) — Why 09:15, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Hey Kakarot, Almost a year since the 5th year minis came out and no update to your template????Salvorin Fex 02:40, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Fex, I have updated his template and made a Costumes and Everlasting tonics template( for my own use). I need to figure out how to wrap the tonics in the tonics template to make it look better. If your only using some tonics it works great. Once you get over 12 tonics in each section it looks crazy. Anyone that wants to use it is more than welcome because I am activly updating it. Hope you enjoy it. Here is the Festival Hats template and I have a sample page at the bottom with hats, costumes and tonics on one of my pages. Also check out some of the other templates under my contributions section of my page.--Tbox875 14:38, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Elite skills tracker

Love the formatting of your elite skill tracker. Is there any way to get it to work in reverse (IE, list the ones I DO have, as opposed to the ones I still need?) -Ruse 04:25, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Updating to say something's off with this. Even using it the way it's intended, if I cap the 5 warrior core skills (for instance) this is how it displays beneath the collapsible parts: Warrior elite skills captured5)

If I say a whole profession is captured with the | profession = y bit, then this is what displays: All elite skills captured} (with the extra } on the end). Here's hoping someone can help...this code is way, way beyond me. -Ruse 04:12, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Holiday Logos

Do you have higher resolutions of your holiday themed GW logos? Power WM 16:52, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

why?

why did you delete my page for my guild, that abeit small was in no way inactive?. I still log in to it as does my mother and my father. granted this happened some 2 years ago but it was not cool as you are not in my guild and have no knowledge of me or my family. I will be putting it back up with a link to my guild in Guild wars 2 and would appreciate you not deleting it . if you do not like it simply tell me so . don't be rude man it aint cool.

76.26.21.230 17:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Kakarot hasn't been active since 2010, at all (its as if he vanished down a well...)

If you can remember what the name is of your guild (and where the page used to be), then we can restore/undelete it. -Chieftain Alex 19:26, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

The reason he deleted it was to uphold the wiki's policy on guild pages. If a page received no edits for an extended period of time, it was deemed inactive. Considering it was deleted in early 2010 or before, and you didn't notice until November of 2013, I'd say he had a point. -Auron 20:22, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

This is why I still check my watchlist daily. It's just amazing to see pages so old their beard ranges to the moon necromanced. - Y0_ich_halt 12:45, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

well I only have 5 people in the guild and I play a lot more than just guild wars. I had created the page trying to recruit more players, and to have someone delete it just because I am not as in depth or busy as them is ridiculous. Small, Casual, Guilds deserve as much advertising , recruitment ability and descriptive info as any BIG FANCY 100s STRONG GUILD. But I guess that is just my Opinion. as for noticing it in nov 2013 I knew he deleted it when it happened but could not at the time figure out how to get it back.

to kakarot wherever he is: I have only recently started learning about wiki pages again, due to the fact I have clans or guilds I run in 6 different games, not just here in GW kakarot. (I wonder did you know that name was an insult akin to the "n" word for sayans in the cartoon dragonball? probably not)

So in conclusion how about sending a message or a warning the page will be deleted instead of just letting anyone do it whenever they feel like it.

Sir Starrborrn of the Guild "The Starrborrn Ones" of Guild Wars 1 AND 2

Your comment about Kakarot's username is both irrelevant and factually incorrect.

Guild:The Starrborrn Ones has been restored, as I assume that is what you are roundaboutly requesting.

Have fun. - Tanetris (talk) 23:58, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

Sysop rights cleanup

Hello, I appreciate you've been inactive for a fair while, but on the odd chance you've still got your talk page watchlisted/notifications enabled, I thought out of courtesy I would leave a message (admittedly I'm going to copy-paste the same message for all affected users). (1) We're going through a bit of a review of which inactive users have sysop rights (including reconfirmation), and (2) here's a link to yours: Guild Wars Wiki:Requests for adminship/Kakarot. -Chieftain Alex 19:02, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
