Lern2Play[edit]

I think if you're still serious about writing the articles for that section(they were entertaining and enlightening, of course), you should consider writing the general ones, particularly frontlining and backlining. I know the derv one covered a lot of things for frontlining, but it was mainly for scythes and the attacks on the bar. A general frontlining article might focus more on warriors than dervs, of course, but I think there's a lot of things you could expand on. They'd be a good read.
Sorry for never finishing the mesmer one; when I realized I was wrong on a lot of points, I kind of dropped it. I might get back to it soon, but I also think you could edit/finish it as well as I could. -Prose 01:36, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

And that ended up as one paragraph instead of two, like I wanted. How would I insert a line break there? -Prose 01:42, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
<br>. l2html. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 03:09, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
So make a guide on that, too. But I looked at the toolbar after I noticed there was no break, and it's not on there. I missed the <br>'s a little while up, I guess. -Prose 03:19, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Oh, my break worked that time. I was wondering what you changed. I'll get the hang of this yet. -Prose 03:37, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
For a frontlining guide can I recommend copy pasting Chiizu's? It could use some updating but you'd be hard pressed to write better. Misery 06:33, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
For the most part it's still up-to-date. Specific skills have come, and for the most part, gone. Conjures are still viable while SoH is not, so maybe the epic 3rd post would be reduced by half :p -Auron 06:58, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Been a while since I read it, maybe it was out of date at the precise moment I last read it. Misery 07:32, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Where can I find it? User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 23:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
[1] and I checked, it has been updated since I last read it, but it has some outdated things again like HC nerf and Aegis change aren't in it. Misery 23:14, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Adrin[edit]

If you or Vili or Misery are in GW right now, please, please tell Adrin to answer his cellphone or call me at my office. Its very important. Thanks guys.--*Yasmin Parvaneh* User yasmin parvaneh sig.png 22:03, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

lol? -Auron 22:14, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
I know...my husband is so attentive in an emergency situation, I have to ask people to interupt him from GW to answer my phone calls...especially when I really need his help, right.--*Yasmin Parvaneh* User yasmin parvaneh sig.png 22:16, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
I don't actually have his IGN... Misery 23:01, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
I got it off his user page, but I guess I'm way too late now. Misery 23:03, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
What happened btw? <_< -Lena™ User Lena Sig.png talk 21:47, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
It was nbd dont worry. I had to go to the bank -.- --adrin User adrin ecto sig.png 21:49, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm not allowed to publicly discuss the details of said affliction; just rest assured that the pending removal of the flagellation (the smaller growths, at any rate) should solve the issue. It's not contagious; there's no reason to panic. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 21:51, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
[[2]] flagellation? --adrin User adrin ecto sig.png 21:58, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
It was a work related task I needed done asap...Worry not, at the end of the month I'll have an assistant to do all that stuff for me, so Adrin can just chill at home.--*Yasmin Parvaneh* User yasmin parvaneh sig.png 21:15, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Flagellation typically refers to the act or motion of whipping or scourging. 99.142.29.90 08:11, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Thought you would like to read this.[edit]

Enjoy. -Lena™ User Lena Sig.png talk 20:16, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Personal attack[edit]

trying to shape the gargle spewing from your mouth into words.--User Zesbeer sig.png Zesbeer 06:51, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah she is not as patient as I am, as I know how to handle your kind. Boro 10px‎ 06:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
The fact that that was figurative aside, which part of that is a personal attack? User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 06:54, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

it was directed at me.--User Zesbeer sig.png Zesbeer 06:55, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

And saying "Zesbeer spews unintelligible gargle" is a personal attack... how? User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 06:59, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

/facepalm if you don't get what a personal attack is i cant help you.
@ boro my kind lol.--User Zesbeer sig.png Zesbeer 07:01, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Are you sure you understand what a personal attack is? User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 07:03, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Zesbeer, a personal attack is something that is racist, homophobic, sexual, ageist, religious, political, or ethnic directed at another Wiki contributor. Other such things that qualify is legal threats, threats of violence, threats of vandalism, etc. It is not the same as "flaming". DarkNecrid 07:07, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
/facepalm again what part of attacking my intelligence makes it not a personal attack?--User Zesbeer sig.png Zesbeer 07:10, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Be more butthurt? Misery 07:37, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Which part of "Zesbeer spews unintelligible gargle" is insulting your intelligence? Do you know what "unintelligible" means? User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 07:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Don't be racist Raine. Misery 07:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
As long as I don't have to stop being the lesbian Antichrist, we're okay. ♥ User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 07:57, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
I would not consider it a personal attack. Saying Zesbeer is unintelligent and spews gargle would be an attack. --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 08:09, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Actually the "trying to shape the gargle spewing from your mouth into words." sentence is not a personal attack, but rather an opinion about your comments on the roj topic. Boro 10px‎ 09:29, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Emphasis on Zesbeer is unintelligent being the personal attack part, if it was phrased that way. — Jon User Jon Lupen Sig Image.png Lupen 15:28, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Honestly, if he even began to take this seriously as a personal attack, he'd probably go here first, the way I see it this is just instigating and trying to get someone in trouble, and I don't see this as a type of personal attack. Actually, I fail to see how anyone could even find this offensive enough to make a big deal about:
"Let's try and get someone in trouble based upon what the policies are, because we have nothing better to do~!"
I know, I know, I'm just jumping in here because I'm sure I've already made some extremely close exceptions to the personal attacks policy, and this isn't even anything close, to what I'd see as offensive or even mentionable. Maybe someone is just a little too sensitive? But I can't see anyone being reduced to tears from something like that, and I can hardly see anyone taking serious offense to it. So I'm sticking to the theory that you're instigating for the sake of instigating. -nods- ~ Ryuu DesuUser Ryuu Desu Sig.png[ Talk|Contributions ] 16:17, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

I think the Space Pope is reptilian. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 05:59, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
I recall Armond saying "relevant" and "sodomized with beer bottles" in the same sentence.
Speaking or Armond, WTB. Wiki needs less bad atm, and Armond's usually good at un-badding. :/ User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 06:04, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Agreed, Armond's un-badification abilities are of exceptional quality. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 06:09, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
I like you and Armond, too. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 06:11, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Medium[edit]

Is that Lump(s) of Charcoal and ink you used on the art on your page? I just see fingerprints and I thought it might be that or artistic use of smudging of a soft lead. --TalkAntioch 02:56, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Almost; it's soft chalk pastel. I wish I'd had charcoal, though. Black pastel on cream paper (the brightness is enhanced post-process to make it appear white; this is also what causes the fingerprints to be visible) won't break dark brown unless it's on pretty thick, which wouldn't look good with ink. Charcoal would've been far better, but I wanted to finish it tonight, and didn't have proper materials. I mean, the-ink-was-done-with-a-ballpoint-pen improper, lol.
Also, if I could upload a lower-res scan, I would (I don't know WHY it scans at 9001 DPI); there's a lot of fine... erm... details that I wouldn't mind being blotted out by the compression process. ^ - ^" User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 03:17, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Usually it's a setting on your printer/scanner's software. Normally you can select the DPI before the final scan. Also, I heard you're doing some art? I'll upload a picture I'd like to be re-imagined later, if you'd like. --TalkAntioch 05:37, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
That'd be nice! :D User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 05:39, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Here you are. --TalkAntioch 05:41, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Very good screenshot, tbh. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 05:57, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Ah, so you like it? Anyway, this one is a bit freeform, do what you will with it. Well, I only have a few parameters: Use this monk. (duh) Spell casting would be great, but not needed.
Later on, I would like for you to study some animations from monks and make some cool bits of them spell casting. If you really need more details, ask me and I'll make some up. :-D--TalkAntioch 06:21, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
You have proskills. Is there anything you can't do?
This and/or this would be nice... a stylization of Smite, or just a portrait (full body? dunno what looks like at 100px) respectively, I think... or you could come up with something yourself. I'd be honored either way. :) This is also a convenient excuse for me to try and take some better screenshots, so I thank you for that. Vili 点 User talk:Vili 20:40, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
I'M JUST TIRED TODAY. DON'T THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME AT WIKI YET. >:( Vili 点 User talk:Vili 20:54, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
I should run for bcrat. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 21:02, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Me too. So many candidates this time around. Newcomers, too! Vili 点 User talk:Vili 21:11, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
I'd vote for you. And so would all of my socks. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 21:21, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Could you...[edit]

Hop on yahoo before you go to sleep? Assuming you see this before then. -Prose 04:21, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

sup[edit]

I'll be back in the guild someday, if GW ever stops being a laggy disconnecting POS five-digits ping game. If I can't PvP with you guys, there's hardly any point of me staying, so I may as well spend my time in PvE (alone) or hanging out with my non-PvP friends...it's nothing personal. Vili 点 User talk:Vili 22:12, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

I am not that bad to PvE with ^____^ Ɲoɕʈɋɽɕɧ 22:16, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me know.
It just sucks that I'm going to have to kick someone from my flist to re-add you now.  :( User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 23:19, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
You are too friendly. Tru story. Vili 点 User talk:Vili 23:21, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm just overflowing with kindness.
I'm not really as much of a bitch as I come off as sometimes. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 23:23, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
