Welcome![edit]

Welcome on the wiki Lyger!!! I see you updated the guildpage of MH, Great job! I see you in-game ^^ |Cyan LightUser-Cyan Light sig-icon.jpgLive!| 14:25, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I finally decided to get into the world of wiki. Now, I just need to learn wiki codes and pretty up my main page at some point. :) Lyger talk 15:04, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Argh, I suck at signatures. Hopefully have it figured out now. Lyger 15:19, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Well your talk in your sig is gone, I dont know of that was your meaning =P |Cyan LightUser-Cyan Light sig-icon.jpgLive!| 15:23, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm trying to get the talk thing to link. Think I'm missing an obscure escape character somewhere. Lyger / talk 15:26, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
You know you cant press talk in your sig here because we are on your talkpage? ^^ |Cyan LightUser-Cyan Light sig-icon.jpgLive!| 15:28, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
That makes all kind of crazy sense. /doh Lyger talk 15:29, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Lolz =P |Cyan LightUser-Cyan Light sig-icon.jpgLive!| 15:38, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Busted![edit]

What were you doing? ^^ |Cyan LightUser Cyan Light User-Cyan Light sig.jpgLive!| 12:45, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

I was updating my guild page, and then being nosy at the history on it and clicking random links! 77.107.67.13 13:41, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Oops, forgot to sign in! /doh Lyger talk 13:42, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Hehehe ^^ I comented on you new topic on the forum =) |Cyan LightUser Cyan Light User-Cyan Light sig.jpgLive!| 13:44, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Ooh, I is legendary? I never knew! Lyger talk 15:11, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
And now you know =P |Cyan LightUser Cyan Light User-Cyan Light sig.jpgLive!| 16:05, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

*Pokes[edit]

...with a hot lava spear* Looky looky who I found wandering around =P --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 10:12, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

You poke too much..... =) |Cyan LightUser Cyan Light User-Cyan Light sig.jpgLive!| 10:13, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Ow! That was mean :( Lyger talk 10:53, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Awww ok cyan, I'll start whipping instead of poking. --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 12:13, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Bows[edit]

Wiki page is looking good Miss English =P -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 13:48, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Why, thank you kind sir! It's still very much a work in progress - I'm updating on my lunch hour at work, so I can't upload any nice character screenies yet! Also, thank you for having one of the user pages that inspired me to get my own user page sorted out! Lyger talk 13:50, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I inspired you with my pages? Goowie! And I thought mine were bad designed =) -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 13:52, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
I liked all the shiny on your page! :) Once I have my page completed, I need to add a thanks section and mention everyone who inspired me - seems the polite thing to do! I must get my page into a state I can be proud of first though, heh! Lyger talk 13:55, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Well, I think you can be proud on the way it looks now ^^ -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 14:03, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Btw, please tell me if you like this style: Check it! Its a try-out but maybe, maybe I'll use it on my other character pages ^^ -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 14:22, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I like that! tell me, where do you get the profession icons from? Is there a global resource we can use on wiki, or do we have to upload our own? I want to add icons to my character template. Lyger talk 14:36, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
The icons on my page are free to use for all wiki users, you dont need to upload them in your own namespace. -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 14:40, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Awesome! I'll start playing with them later in that case! Lyger talk 15:42, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Maybe a stupid questiob, but how do you see my signature? Is it like big Arial or flowing text? -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 16:16, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Looks normal to me! Certainly flashier than mine! Lyger talk 16:17, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
You see the flowing text? Thank god, now I don't need to change it again =D -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 16:21, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Now I just need to sort out my signature! Heh! Lyger talk10% 18:05, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Maybe you need to add |19px]] =D -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 18:06, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, that went a bit wrong, heh! Lyger talk Mesmer.png 18:06, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Is good now. *Cheers!* -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 18:08, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Signature[edit]

Almost there. Per policy, you actually need to upload that image as a user image, so that you can redirect it to either your talk page or your user page. You can still use the same image, you just need to have your own version of it for the redirection to work properly. -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 18:10, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I almost forgot to tell indeed. Images in signatures need to be in namespace. Always =) -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 18:25, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Ah, thanks, I had no idea! I'm such a wiki noob. Will fix asap! Lyger talk Mesmer.png 18:30, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Job done, I think. I'll track down something else to use,as I think I'm too purple anyway! Actually, figured it! Lyger talk  User Lyger SignatureText.png 18:49, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Maybe you can place the image between 'Lyger' and 'talk'. I think that will look more like 1 signature, instead of 2 words and a picture ^^ *Brainstorm session* -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 18:53, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
I tried that, but it kept breaking the link to my talk page. What should the syntax be? Lyger talk  User Lyger SignatureText.png 18:55, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Lets see: LygerUser Lyger SignatureText.pngtalk -This Maybe? Other color is possible =) -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 19:03, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
How about this? I'll have to work on getting the L closer to the rest, but I think it will do for now! User Lyger SignatureText.pngyger talk 19:25, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Nice, this will do indeed =) -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 19:48, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Just a thank you[edit]

See inside. -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 21:20, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Aw, that's lovely! Thanks! User Lyger SignatureText.pngyger talk 21:27, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Links[edit]

You don't have to make your links external. you can merely do [[User:Lyger/Page|Page Name]]-- User Vanguard VanguardLogo.pnganguard 21:29, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, thanks! I love how everyone is on hand to help me out with this :) This is my first day having a real play with a wiki! User Lyger SignatureText.pngyger talk 21:32, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Yea, despite all the drama and anger (mostly just from the people who have a habit of coming from PvX and bringing their shit here), this is a pretty cool place.-- User Vanguard VanguardLogo.pnganguard 21:34, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Still blaming PvX guys for the problems on the world Vanguard? =P -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 21:47, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
Most of them, yes.-- User Vanguard VanguardLogo.pnganguard 21:48, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Got ya![edit]

Posting @ work? Don't let your boss catch you! Or maybe, you work in your own compagny? Tell me =) -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 13:11, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Ha ha! Nah, I'm on my lunchbreak, and I have nothing better to do. User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 13:11, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
I see. That will mean that you work for a compagny? And what is your function? I know you have listed some information on your page but I'd love to have some additional information ^^ -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 13:17, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, I work for a small company writing bespoke software. It's great, I love my job! User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 13:43, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Go great jobs! Woooh!! -- Cyan User Cyan Light sig.jpg 18:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Tables[edit]

For organizing things:
{|
| {{stuff goes here}}
| {{stuff goes here}}
|-
| {{stuff goes here}}
| {{stuff goes here}}
|}
will produce a nice, ordered table, with |- being the like breaker, so with your user boxes:

Mesmer-tango-icon-200.png This user is a Mesmer by nature.
Female.png This user is Female.
"Dervish Lyssa Avatar" concept art.jpg This user's matron goddess is Lyssa.
User Lensor TyriaMissionIcon.png This user plays the 1st Guild Wars campaign: Prophecies.
User Lensor CanthaMissionIcon.png This user plays the 2nd Guild Wars campaign: Factions.
User Lensor ElonaMissionIcon.png This user plays the 3rd Guild Wars campaign: Nightfall.

if you wanted it formatted in rows of two. Just something I thought you'd like to know. — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 14:47, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I've been looking around for something that explains it a bit better. At the moment, I'm just trying to get my various templates to display in the same size without having to hardcode a size all over the place. As you can probably tell, it's not going to great! User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 14:54, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Looks like it's going smooth enough though. IE (I frequently wiki in IE) loves to bugger up HTML and your page looks presentable. — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 14:58, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Ah, I'm viewing in firefox. Tell me, does my main page look aligned now to you? Sorry to be cheeky by asking and stuff! As you can probably tell, I'm a bit of a wiki noob, and I tend to fall back to the little I know of html when I'm stuck. User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 15:01, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Well, we all start from somewhere. You don't become a wiki expert overnight, unless you're poke, but still. Asking questions is one of the best ways to learn things. Also, this is what your userpage looks like on my end. — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 15:07, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Brilliant, thanks so much for uploading that! I'm happy to say that my layout looks like it's going well. Now to try and get my head around some parser syntax... User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 15:09, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Your welcome, happy to help where I can. :) Have fun with the parser syntax, that's out of my league. :P poke is one of the resident coding gurus, so if you're stuck you could... poke him and see if he can help you. — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 15:11, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Just food for thought here, but "templates" are generally thought of as shells with variables that can be filled in. Technically, your Template/Characterinfo is a template, the rest are individual character pages, that would be better named User:Lyger/<Character Name>. -- Wyn User Wynthyst sig icon2.png talk 15:39, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, I may need to rethink how I have that set up at the moment. It kind of started off with me being a bit lazy, and trying to feed in parameters to the already existing Title List template - the problem I'm having is trying to pass unset parameters to it doesn't show a load of titles set to 0. I'm wishing I'd not been so lazy, and just written a brand new list template from scratch now. I may yet do that! User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 15:42, 28 October 2009 (UTC)


Your not old[edit]

I just saw how old you said you was and just so you know, you cant be old as there are guilds in GW where all the members are 30+ and i actually know a 66 year old who started playing it a few months ago because he has nothing else to do in his retirement and hes also pretty good in PvP aswell as PvE. Simzy User Truesimzy mysig.jpg 21:40, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Hee! That makes me feel better! I do know I'm not *that* old. I just have the dubious position of being the oldest in my guild, heh! And my guildies like to take the mickey out of me at times. All in the spirit of fun, of course! User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 21:41, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
What exactly was Mickey doing in you? User Felix Omni Signature.pngelix Omni 21:42, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Lol. Karate User Karate Jesus KJ for sig.png Jesus 21:43, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Oh mai! You know, I'm really gald I didn't add the header text 'Warning: May Contain Nuts' to my user page now. That could have made this page look really messy! :O User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 21:46, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

What the hell? Am I dyslexic or something? I swear that said 92 earlier today... Misery 21:47, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

lol @ Felix and Misery, anyways, think of how my guild leader must feel, hes only 18 with me being the next youngest at 20 and the oldest person in the guild being 49, we all take the mickey out of him for being the baby of us.Simzy User Truesimzy mysig.jpg 21:49, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Ha ha! And yes, it did say 92 earlier today. That was one of my loving guildies picking on me. Since they refuse to beleve 'm actually 26. I assure you, it started out life as 26! User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 21:51, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
I did a double take when I read that but was like "Ok.." Just glad I'm not going crazy. Pretty sure KJ and I are in your age bracket. Misery 21:52, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Your page may have started life at 26, but if you had, I'd be asking a whole lot of questions. >.> — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 21:55, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Lyger you may want to hide if you did, i think Jon is about to phone the media for a new medical discovery. Simzy User Truesimzy mysig.jpg 21:57, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
A medical discovery? Only one? — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 22:00, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, not much I can say to all that, heh! Thanksfor making me laugh, all :) User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 22:04, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

"Pretty sure KJ and I are in your age bracket."
Close enough. I'm 24 (I'll be 25 in 20 days or something, if that helps) Karate User Karate Jesus KJ for sig.png Jesus 22:06, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
@ Jon, Yep only the 1 im afraid, unless Lyger is like Kyle XY, born in "pod" and spent 26 years there in which case she is the smartest person alive.Simzy User Truesimzy mysig.jpg 22:07, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

" What the hell? Am I dyslexic or something? I swear that said 92 earlier today... " <3 User_Yena_Sig.png‎ 23:16, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

I know it was you or Macca who altered my age, Yena. I'm betting you at the moment! <3 User_Lyger_SignatureText.png‎yger talk 23:18, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Ask yourself this: If it had been Macca, would he have left your sexual orientation uncommented on?.. Exactly. Talk 02:59, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
Yena you are an evil evil woman at times ;) Dammit need an image and colours Kallisto Melia 03:13, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
Meh, I'm 27. So you're not old. Btw, welcome to the wiki. I remember 26 - had a quiet well behaved 2 month old... She's not so much the peaceful, youngin. Still love her. -- User Ariyen sig icon.gifriyen 07:02, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
