Large Icons

Are those just blown up versions of icons or hi-res icons? --JonTheMon 19:51, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

A little of both. Some are hi-res, a few are blown up ones. --Antioch 19:51, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Is there any collection of hi-res around? Or are those the only ones? --JonTheMon 19:54, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

I believe there is, but I have forgotten the website. There were ones from every profession I think. --Antioch 19:54, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

I think you should stop until we can come to a conclusion. --JonTheMon 19:57, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, sure. I looked at OI a few months ago, and they were still there and I skipped them. Since they have still not seen use, I have tagged them. Please make an inquiry on GWW:RFC and we'll see what everyone else has to say. --Antioch 19:59, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Kurd sent me all the images he had that time when he uploaded a bunch of them; I still have them on my computer, but didn't upload them because they lack correct naming (and I was too lazy) and some of them are not that well cut out of the Sealed Deck Cards. That's why I decided to extract the images from the cards myself but apart from some very old versions of those cards, I was not able to find versions that were up to date. So does anybody has a link to the newest pack? It seems ANet put them down from their website. poke | talk 20:27, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

This link is still working for me ~ Kurd 20:48, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh, then I just failed - thanks for the link :) Then I have something to do at uni ^^ poke | talk 20:49, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

To say it here as well (as this is the "official" discussion place): I deleted the images for now, but will upload them all at the end of the week and put them somewhere to see. poke | talk 19:29, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

have fun :D - Any idea what to do with them now? poke | talk 21:34, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Well done poke! Hmm, though some of them need to be cleaned up or re-uploaded as something like Image:Infuse Health (large).jpg is not great quality. --Antioch 21:57, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh, didn't look for those things, but actually there is no possibility to get a better quality; it is like that in the cards already. poke | talk 22:09, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Non-orphaned

You can tag an image with {{not orphaned}} instead of putting it in Guild Wars Wiki:Not orphaned. -- Brains12 \ talk 18:50, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh yeah huh. Thanks for the tip. Will it get placed in the list automatically (the one that displays on Not Orphaned)? --Antioch 18:51, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Yea, it will. — Why 14:36, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

No, I don't think it will display automatically in Guild Wars Wiki:Not orphaned, although someone could add DPL to ensure they do. -- Brains12 \ talk 14:47, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

I could add the necessary dpl to make an auto created gallery of not orphaned images but someone will have to go through the current one and add the {{not orphaned}} template to all the images that don't presently use it. Should I add the dpl below the current one so that the old way is still accessible? Once an image has the template it can be removed from the first list. --Kakarot 14:59, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

If DPL goes up, I'll tag the old non-orphaned images if we must combine them.  :-D --Antioch 15:06, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Since I have to go I added the code to the page already so have fun :P --Kakarot 15:08, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh, crap. I'm a bit busy today (blessing for my brother's baby), it will have to wait a few more hours. Though I will do it. --Antioch 15:10, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Uh what? I missed this discussion - why a DPL list? We have a media category! poke | talk 08:11, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Could you explain how it would fit in there? I'm a little unclear to that. --Antioch 15:59, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I think Poke means we could use Category:Not orphaned images instead of Guild Wars Wiki:Not orphaned. -- Brains12 \ talk 17:05, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Exactly. There is no need to have DPL display all images when they are quite easy browsable on the category page. poke | talk 19:30, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, it's there. But if it can be done better, it should. What happens next then? --Antioch 19:31, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

You have been nominated for adminship

Please show that you accept or deny this nomination at Guild_Wars_Wiki:Requests_for_adminship#Pending_nominations --Shadowphoenix 18:52, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

*ping* --Shadowphoenix 00:08, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, what are your reasons for nominating me? Also, I'm getting my work done before I say accept or not. --Antioch 01:00, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

1. Your have a good head on your shoulders, I have never seen you get in a big fight with a user.
2. You are quite active on the wiki.
3. Your are dedicated to the wiki (proven by your massive amount of edits).
4. I believe that what you generally do on the wiki would be easier done on the wiki with sysop tools.
5. I don't think you would ever abuse adminstrative tools.
6. I believe that you can make good choices when it come to moderating user disputes.

There are more reasons, but I think that should suffice for now --Shadowphoenix 01:07, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Ah, the bureaucrat election is going on right now. I had almost forgotten. I will have to decline for now; let us get this bit out of the way first. --Antioch 16:44, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Hide your minor edits!!

And its not my fault we decided to go on tagging sprees at the same time! xD Wandering Traveler 06:50, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

-- Wyn 04:44, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Welcome! On the bleak side, you have to move those sometime. :-D --Antioch 04:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Getting to it... -- Wyn 04:46, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

hi

hey hows it going? i havent checked in here on the wiki in some time. things are going fairly well, i havent been on so much lately, but im kinda getting back into the grove of things (about 3 nights a week now, not so much on the weeekeds tho) --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:70.160.18.105 (talk).

Ah, that's cool. Well, you didn't log in or state your name, so I am unsure as to who you are! Thanks for being kind enough to leave me a message though! --Antioch 16:43, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Greetings & Salutations!

Merry Christmas!-- Wyn 02:36, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks very much and Merry Christmas to you and yours. --Antioch 03:50, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

You beat me to it

But happy holidays to you too! ^^ -- Wandering Traveler 04:36, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! May Ectos drop from the sky. --Antioch 04:37, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Just hope those Obsidian Shards don't....that'd just hurt. >< -- Wandering Traveler 04:37, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

How would you feel about Diamonds? --Antioch 04:39, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

If that were the case, we would not need this. :P -- Wandering Traveler 04:39, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

It would be kinda like Meteor Shower, wouldn't it? It is a rock. --Antioch 04:40, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

True. but instead of fiery death, its....rare jewels. hmmm.... *puts out large bucket*. -- Wandering Traveler 04:42, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Remember to cast Guardian. --Antioch 04:42, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

I like something a little bigger for this kind of work. ^^ -- Wandering Traveler 04:44, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Get in a crystal. --Antioch 04:46, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

3 seconds....should be enough. Though if I'm desperate enough... -- Wandering Traveler 04:52, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Don't forget to have a buddy-system. --Antioch 04:53, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Already set. ^^ -- Wandering Traveler 04:58, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Mind your footing. --Antioch 05:00, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Speed will help as well. -- Wandering Traveler 05:06, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

I'll be there just in case. --Antioch 17:17, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

You'll exhaust yourself too quickly. besides, I'll need some prots. -- Wandering Traveler 01:27, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Elitism is baed? --SilentStorm 02:19, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Even faster on the return. --Antioch 04:51, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Fear me --SilentStorm 19:51, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

We have nothing to fear of spells. --Antioch 19:52, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Spell are just too much. -- Wandering Traveler 20:16, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

You should be careful anyway tho --SilentStorm 20:19, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't know what to do! --Antioch 03:04, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

I think its time to.... -- Wandering Traveler 03:07, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Remain at peace. "We Shall Return!" --Antioch 03:09, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Watch your way on Return ;) --SilentStorm 04:55, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

A graceful stride is all you need. -- Wandering Traveler 16:20, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

If nothing else works, there's always this. — Rappy 16:26, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh noez not fair you're so imba now... --SilentStorm 19:14, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

You just need to be under cover. --Antioch 21:12, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

That won't stop you from falling over! — Rappy 22:13, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

No, but yelling things randomly will help. -- Wandering Traveler 22:14, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Not if you become really thirsty. Rappy 22:55, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Or sick. --Antioch 22:57, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Or visited the wrong Doctor --SilentStorm 23:11, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

That yelled at you. --Riddle 23:56, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Either way, be careful where you tread over the holidays. — Rappy 01:01, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Wtf? But remember to never fall back to a lower indentation level!! poke | talk 01:40, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

You're all weird. - Auron 01:42, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

No one hears your comment, as it echos all around. :-D --Antioch 02:17, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Quite the conundrum. — Rappy 03:43, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

You're a mean one, Mister Noctarch (no link, wrong indent and a happy new topic=P)Ɲoɕʈɋɽɕɧ 03:57, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

No for you then! — Rappy 04:07, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

The is a lie. --Antioch 04:37, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

is better than ! — Rappy 05:08, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

But is better than all. --Riddle 05:39, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Only if you want to wake up days later with a headache. — Rappy 06:01, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Magical mystical Hangover-juice --Riddle 06:06, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

What were we talking about again? -- Wandering Traveler 06:27, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) But what if it backfires? — Rappy 06:29, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

This is worse than wtf chains on PvX. At least those have content :/ - Auron 06:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

* Rappy breathes fire on Auron. (just because you don't agree doesn't mean you have to try and stop others from having their fun) — Rappy 06:51, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Protected! --Riddle 06:56, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Will it end? --Antioch 20:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) x2 Not if you keep shouting... --SilentStorm 20:56, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Never! — Rappy 20:51, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Gonna give you up! --Antioch 20:54, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Rick roll? — Rappy 22:32, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Never gonna let you down. --Antioch 05:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I bet you will run around though! — Rappy 06:12, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I'll be all alone... --Antioch 06:20, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

No you will not! -- Wandering Traveler 06:23, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I am weak. --Antioch 06:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

We shall stand together and make them flee! — Rappy 06:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

"None Shall Pass!" --Antioch 06:45, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I shall --Riddle 06:53, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I lol at your attempt. — Rappy 07:36, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Activate this aswell. --SilentStorm 14:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Alright, fun while it lasted, but I must be the last word on this one. --Antioch 05:06, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Antioch

Err, which one? Ɲoɕʈɋɽɕɧ 03:57, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

This one. --Antioch 04:38, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Is your lily a reference to the crusader state of Antioch or Antioch in Illinois? Ɲoɕʈɋɽɕɧ 13:06, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Neither, just liked the lily. It was also a symbol big in my youth, as I was a member of the Boy Scouts too. --Antioch 20:32, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

A pity, I like crusaders being a duelling master ;-) Ɲoɕʈɋɽɕɧ 22:40, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Heh heh. --Antioch 05:33, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Ehh..

I apologize, I did not expect the above topic to get so....well, out of hand. Probably should have realized that on my end :\. -- Wandering Traveler 15:24, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

It was good fun, no one was insulted (afaik), but it was asked to stop. Liked some of the ideas though. --Antioch 17:24, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Sig link

Could you put a link in your signature to your userpage/talk page please? -- Brains12 \ talk 17:50, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

The pic redirects to the talk, for what it's worth. calor (talk) 17:54, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

That is not enough, and actually it does not.. poke | talk 17:55, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

That's A-Net's bit about the image redirecting, but currently policy doesn't require both links. I like to keep the sig length short if I can, so I haven't linked to the main user page. But if you want, until this problem with the redirects gets solved, I can place the link in "Antioch" if you want. --Antioch 22:18, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

I've always read the policy as requiring a link (i.e. a link, not just an image redirect). Anyway, it would be nice if you had a link, yes. I don't think it'd lengthen your signature too much. -- Brains12 \ talk 22:24, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay. I'll get on it then. --Antioch 22:26, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks -- Brains12 \ talk 22:26, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Reverted. This alright? --Antioch 22:27, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Whoops, hold on. --Antioch 22:28, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Meh, I don't have a direct link to my talk either other than the image redirect :P -- Wyn 22:28, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

It's to User:PoA which redirects to User:People of Antioch, is that okay? It's a link, but a redirect too. Not sure where that lands. --Antioch 22:31, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

That's fine. Wyn, you don't need a link to your talk if you have a link to your userpage; just one link is fine, but there should be at least one link. I don't think an image redirect counts as a link. -- Brains12 \ talk 22:36, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, I changed mine anyway until the redirect thing gets fixed. -- Wyn/talk 22:41, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Happy new Year

Happy New Year PoA ;) --SilentStorm 00:48, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Happy New Year to you as well. Thanks for stopping by and saying that! --Antioch 04:21, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Happy New Year! :] poke | talk 16:47, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Happy New Year :) --Kakarot 20:54, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Yay!!!

Thanks for the neutral vote. I know that seems like a weird thing to say, but the extra bit of comment about you leaning towards a weak support this time makes a marked difference from my last RFA, where you leaned towards a weak oppose. It shows that I'm on the right track with the changes I have made to my conduct as a user on this wiki and that it has been noticed by others, which in and of itself is a great motivator to me. So truly thanks again and if I'm not successful this time *crosses fingers that I will be*, hopefully in the future, with my continued efforts, I can show you that I am much more reasoned and objective individual than I initially allowed myself to be. Blessed be. -- Salome 17:42, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

This is the attitude I like to see! Keep it up, and thanks for the message. --Antioch 18:47, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

How autoblock works

Ok, I didn't notice your reply on Poke's talk, so I'll respond now. Autoblock blocks any IP that tries to edit (or has recently edited) on a blocked account. The block lasts for 24 hours, so if you try to log in an hour before your ban is up, you'll get banned for another 23 hours. The block is not anonymous only so if you try to use other accounts, you will still be blocked. Poke thought you could use other accounts through an autoblock, I was showing him he was wrong. Any more questions? Btw, I don't think your signature has a link other than the redirect in the image, is that intentional? Misery 00:04, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, it's intentional (keeps the code length small). So, from what I'm inferring, you had poke (or someone else) ban you as part of an experiment, then used a sock to post? --Antioch 23:08, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

No, I had Poke ban my sock to then demonstrate that I couldn't post on my main account if he did that. It came up because Yasmin was concerned that she would be blocked if Adrin got blocked. Poke said she wouldn't, I said she might cop a 24 hour block. Then I won the internets and poke banned me on IRC for my insubordination. He's corrupt, needs recomfirmation imo. Misery 00:06, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

lols poke | talk 13:09, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Ah, okay, thanks for the information. --Antioch 17:02, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

inflamed head

you're like that bush from the bible! - Y0_ich_halt 22:51, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Ha! --Antioch 07:42, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
