Hey

Hi, just saw this edit on my watchlist, and thought you'd appreciate a small pointer. It's possible to revert vandals with a couple of clicks, using the undo button. You can find it by checking the last diff of a page - the undo button should be in the top right. However, this only works when there have been no intermediate revisions of that page - always check the history first. Hope that's helpful! -- AT(talk | contribs) 03:36, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Ahh, that would be what I was looking for. Couldn't find it earlier. Thanks. Rappy 03:43, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Brains, it wasn't until after I uploaded it (was looking at Wantedpages) that I realized it was named differently somewhere else. Rappy 18:19, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, and np-- Brains12Talk 18:20, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Advice

Rappy, While I thank you for your most helpful advice, I would like to note that A. I do not have the Assassin that you were describing to me B. If you take a close look at my page you will notice that my general page is not in fact my Dervish, while it does say dervish, I myself identify most with me Dervish and thus Muerte Repentina is somewhat of a handle for me now. C. If you really took a closer look you would notice that pieces of my page are not yet done leading to the fact that I am not done. D. While I appreciate your addition of the screen shot bit, I would prefer it if you would ask me BEFORE you start working on my page. If you have any further faults that you would like to point out, I would be happy to consider them.
Thanks,
Muerte Repentina

Not so much 'faults' I was just suggesting, and you are right it was Lilo's page that had the assassin, yours was the dervish. I was just noting that the dervish was listed twice, once on the main page and once in the tab, which had the same info. Also, I was not editing your page at all, just noticed in Special:Recentchanges that you were adding your page. Good luck editing =) — Rappy 18:40, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks! I will be sure to look to you for help, and I am sure I will need it sooner or later.

I'm here — Rappy 03:46, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Character Bar

Hi! I was just wondering how you got that character bar at the top of your page. I have seen allot of pages with them and I was wondering how you do it.

Thanks,
--Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 16:51, 22 January 2008 (UTC)Shadow

Take a look here. The code shouldn't be too hard to figure out. If you need more help, let me know. — Rappy 17:59, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

editing

I got the new title bar in now, thanks so much... one question I have is why the bars for the EotN titles are skewed from the list? Drypedyx 21:00, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I centered them like they were on my page, you can always move it to the left if you wish, or I can change it for you later. Find the align="center" before the titles5 template and remove it. — Rappy 21:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
you still around? Drypedyx 23:18, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
Maybe. — Rappy 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
I'm having trouble getting through the navbar thing to customize it for my site, any suggestions? Drypedyx 23:48, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
I see your sandbox copy of my navbar, what is it you are trying to change/do? — Rappy 23:52, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
well, i'm trying to figure out how to add my toons' name to the navbar itself, without changing your navbar. don't want to go to your user site and change your things, but still unclear on the concept of changing individual values and not ctrl c ctrl v heh Drypedyx 23:56, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
For that, you will have to copy and paste. Create the page User:Drypedyx/Navbar and put your info there. You can copy/paste the info from my Navbar directly by clicking here. Once you have that info in your Navbar page, you can edit the values to reflect your characters. — Rappy 00:01, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

thanks...didn't know if there was going to be a way to edit it like the title tables or not

Subliminal message

Template:Alliance nav/Rappy moved to User:Rappy/Alliance: moving to user space instead... and dropping a subliminal hint to Brains that I edited his talk page =p)

Where's the hint? :P (Or is it just the summary?)-- Brains12Talk 23:20, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, the summary was the hint =p — Rappy 23:21, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Yay :P (by the way, shall I delete Template:Alliance nav/Rappy as it's a redirect to userspace and therefore speedy r1?) -- Brains12Talk 23:23, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, please, I was about to tag it, as you posted here =p — Rappy 23:35, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

grammatical issue

I first wondered about an ec on a page of mine, but thanks :) —ZerphatalkThe Improver 02:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

=p no problem, grammar errors stick out like a sore thumb to me =\ — Rappy 02:29, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you...

... for adding screenshot to the image I'd just uploaded. I mistakenly thought user image would cover it. *blushes profusely* I've since gone in and corrected all my other images. Hopefully I've not missed any. :-) User Elenya sig.gifElenya 16:15, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I noticed, so I let you do them, good job =) — Rappy 16:16, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Packrat

Hiya, fellow packrat! :) I saw you liked my packrat userbox enough to copy it onto your main user page so I created a template/category for it. I was unsure if you wanted to use the template {{User Packrat}} to categorize yourself, but thought I'd ask. :-) User Elenya sig.gifElenya 07:20, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Done and done. — Rappy 00:02, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi there :) I just got a simple question on your change in the Category:Users_who_are_packrats-page
These users frequently run out of storage space and/or has one or more mules.
I noticed you changed it from have to has. Now I'm dutch and my native language is not english, but I was under the impression it was a plural from these users. I'm unsure which way is proper but I'd like to know just for future reference :) Greetings -- File:User Clantron sig.gif Clantron 16:57, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Yep, you're right, I missed the 's' on users, thought it said this user. Probably should be This user frequently runs out of storage space and/or has one or more mules.Rappy 17:27, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
I've no idea, I'd guess on the plural since it's a category and its showing multiple users. -- File:User Clantron sig.gif Clantron 17:32, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

treasure template

LOL, you're a wee star unfortunately im a complete idiot and have got myself compleatly and utterly confused now. I'm trying to ascertain info on how this treasure system works so im planning on tracking this data over a period of time and i think your template only lets me see when my last run was. I'm needing to track both what dropped, where it dropped and when it dropped and then track that over the next 6 months. My plan is to repeat this on all my charecters and see if i can ascertain how the hell the system operates. So i really appreciate the help matey but I dont think your template is gonna meet my needs in full. If I'm wrong, im a complete noob at this wiki thingy so please accept my apologies. also accept my thanks for your help matey, it is appreciated. -- Salome 00:24, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Consensus is, leave the chest alone for 30-45 days to maximize the drop from it. That is per character. So the template I showed you works so far as that is concerned. Knowing when you last checked it, can tell you when the next time to check it would be. — Rappy 15:32, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
