Thank you...[edit]

... for moving all those topics on HELP:WIKI/HELP:GAME :) poke | talk 00:07, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Hehe, sorting out stuff is easier done when it is already somehow sorted. :P
Since both HELP:WIKI and HELP:GAME already exists, it was easy to spot which questions were in the wrong place.
Thanks Calor for his quick reply as well. :D --NIN37 17:22, 2 September 2008 (UTC)


Am I too late to say welcome? :P <HORSEDROWNER> 07:29, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Unsigned[edit]

Is there any reason for replacing the {{unsigned}} templates on the questions page with absolute text? Surely I thought its better to have the template since it reduces the size of the un-rendered page. TBH I might be wrong, I'm just wondering why.- TheRave User TheRave sig.jpg (talk) 11:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Both user:Wizardboy777 and user:Y0_ich_halt told me to use subst:unsigned instead of unsigned.
link 1and link 2.
Since I usually respect what older (non-spammer) members tell me, I decided to follow their advice. :P
Something to do with template being update every so often or extra strain to the server to have to replace it every time the page is loaded. So, a thousand subst:unsigned would render a few thousand extra bytes to the page, but would require a thousand less on-the-fly replace template by the server. --NIN37 11:18, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
Ahhh ok, now that does make sense. I didn't realise we should be using subst: I will do in future. Thank you for explaining.- TheRave User TheRave sig.jpg (talk) 11:21, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
We learn a lot of hot stuff here at the wiki. :D
Glad I could be helpful. --NIN37 11:51, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a lot[edit]

The past few weeks and months I've seen you answering just about every question on the help pages. I honestly appreciate your efforts and, quite frankly, I don't think you get near enough gratitude for your work. Thanks :) calor (talk) 21:19, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Well... most questions are easily answerable (sp?) anyway. :P
This wiki helped me a lot when I started playing GW, so I think it would be nice if, somehow, I could help it as well.
Since I'm not very good at creating/maintaining/editing articles (briefness isn't my style), I prefer to stay around the Help pages, where my contributions could be more useful. :D --NIN37 12:06, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
Lol nice userpage. -- Halogod35 TALK TO ME NAO plz. :D 07:04, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Edit summary[edit]

Hey, edit summaries shouldn't go inside /* */, which are the tags to bring up the arrow taking you to the section header named inside them. You should put your summary outside those tags :) --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ talk 00:47, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Still so much to learn about wiki. >_<'
Thanks for the input. ^_^ --NIN37 00:52, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

War?[edit]

WAR75/NIN37? or just NIN37? D: 90.206.232.246 20:46, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi[edit]

I reverted a few of your [sic] tags in polymock as I felt that was a common phrase, but when I saw how many places you'd put it in I thought to ask about it, see template Talk:sic#Appropriate? --Star Weaver 19:04, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

No worries. If you think they're inappropriate and should be removed/reverted, feel free to fix stuff up.
I've added them cause playing someone in a game makes little sense for a non-native English speaker like myself. :P --NIN37 19:40, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
Dude, I totally forgot to follow up on this. And yeah, I can totally see it being confusing for a non-native speaker -- given the total wtffery in this language, I'm really, really glad I didn't have to learn it that way. (I hear it's only easier than things like chinese (tonal overload = my brain explodes) and ... hebrew? arabic? one of those.). I'll look into what happend with the rest of those pages a little later :). --Star Weaver 17:37, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Before you go on an edit spree...[edit]

I thought I'd tell you that you spelt "charmable" wrong :P --User Brains12 circle sig.png Brains12 \ talk 23:41, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooops! >_< --NIN37 23:47, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Game question[edit]

Thanks. Maybe instead of coffee I should just give up and go back to bed! :) Freedom Bound 13:30, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Dzagonur[edit]

I always thought that area was blocked off, for some reason. Odd that there's only plants back there, too. Manifold 23:49, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

"Prestige" pets[edit]

Please look at this edition of article "Charmable animal":
http://wiki.guildwars.com/index.php?title=Charmable_animal&diff=1479323&oldid=1479321
Here you have restored two of your previous notes about pet unlocking. However, not all: if you look some versions before, the table in the article had the remarks with list of prestige pets. Hence, the notes about "non-prestige pets" looked logically after that info. Then you removed the remarks about prestige pets from the table but restored the note about non-prestige ones. Unfortunately, all authors who have made subsequent editions, kept this note unchanged but added nothing which could explain the term "prestige". In current version of article, the term "prestige" doesn't occur on the page at all! I could add it, but it would be better if you fix the mistake (if you agree that it's your mistake, of course). --Slavic 16:03, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
