User talk:Spawnlegacy

Welcome!

Hey Spawnlegacy, and welcome to the wiki! If you have any questions about editing, coding, layout, policies, or whatever, feel free to leave a message on my talk page or contact any other member of the helper program. Good luck, happy wiki-ing! :) -Why 19:36, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Hiya

Nice to see someone registering for suggestions. However, please dont create duplicate pages. If a suggestion already exists, use that page. Backsword 06:39, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Additionally, while many agree that Ursan is a plauge, that does not validate placing ursan rants in random articles. Backsword 08:26, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk pages

Hey Spawnlegacy, may I remind you that, according to Guild Wars Wiki:Talk pages, new comments should be added to the bottom of a talk page, rather than to the top. Please consider this when editing talk pages. You can also click the "+" button, which is next to the "edit" button, to leave a new message at the bottom of a talk page. Thank you in advance. -Why 16:08, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Skill subpage

I think the idea of a Wailing Horror skill is awesome, but I think making such concrete skill suggestions for GW2 is a bit pointless atm, as the way characters are set up in GW2 might just be totally different from GW1.

For instance, who knows if Minion Mastery will still be available in GW2, who knows if ANet is planning to keep the Necromancer profession in the game? My prediction is that the concepts of Necro and Ritualist will be merged, and, as GW2 is a MMORPG, Minion Mastery will either be removed, severely limited or completely reworked; imagine 50 necromancers, each with a full army of minions. If that wouldn't cause a server crash, what will?

Back to Skill Suggestions. What I'd do atm, would probably be creating a subpage for skill suggestions in my userspace. This way, you can still be actively creating and suggesting skills, without running the risk of people repeating what I said above. Moreover, If GW2 is announced to be much like GW1 in terms of professions and game mechanics, you can allways move or copy the skills you suggested on your userpage to the GW2-suggestions area.

Now, how to make a subpage of your userpage. You can create a new page by simply typing User:Spawnlegacy/(pagename here) in "search" and clicking "Go". You will be directed to a page which tells you no such page exists yet. There, you can press "edit" and start creating the page. Alternatively, you can add a link on your userpage, for instance, [[User:Spawnlegacy/Skills]]. After saving, click the new-made link, and you will find yourself in the "this page doesn't exist" page again. Click "edit" and bring the new page into being.

By the way, you can respond to me on your own talkpage, it keeps the discussion organised. ;) I've got your page on my watchlist, so when you respond, I'll get a notice. -Why 16:54, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Colons and the way your using them

by indenting one more time after every paragraph, it can make talk pages pretty confusing. The usual way people indent on talk pages on wikis is to indent once more than the thing your commenting on. When you indent at each paragraph, it looks as if it was multiple anons who were commenting. Anyways, nobody is going to force you to follow this guideline, but it sure can make things less confusing. — Teh Uber Pwnzer 11:12, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Who are you to tell him how to use his colon?! Haha.. By the way: Colons and the way you're using them. Woop ‧ talk ‧ 15:44, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Spawn Legacy colon explorer. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 16:08, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Considering indents are used by people to read comments in a certain order and to acknowledge to whom the comment is replying, it's anyone's "right" -- in fact, it's helpful for both Spawnlegacy and anyone else reading Spawnlegacy's comments. -- Brains12 \ talk 16:08, 14 August 2008 (UTC) -- hehehehheheh -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 02:42, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

rofl Brains. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 16:13, 14 August 2008 (UTC) don't look now but you messed up ur colons. :P

Actually, it was probably an EC --JonTheMon 16:24, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

]: it was funny while it lasted. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 16:32, 14 August 2008 (UTC) which was about 3.4seconds. Why's everyone visiting my nooby talk page all a sudden?

Search Google for "Colons and the way you're using them." It's a dietary guidelines book from the same publisher as those Dummies books.  Woop ‧ talk ‧ 16:45, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I just got the joke. I fail D: -- Brains12 \ talk 17:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

My talk page and I still don't get it D: '"were you searching for you'are" says google. Spawn ‎ Legacy 17:54, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I meant the "Who are you to tell him how to use his colon?!" I thought he meant colons (hence why I rambled on about indenting), not colon (i.e. body part). -- Brains12 \ talk 17:58, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Were you searching for "the cleansing of a fat man's colon" says Spawn. Like hell I'm watching his anal exam. Spawn ‎ Legacy 18:03, 14 August 2008 (UTC) Heheheh.. poor Brains. I love you for the same reason I love Why... I like small text.

You actually rambled on about intending Brains, but maybe I shouldn't point that out at this point?-- Wyn 18:05, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

What's ironic is that I actually typed "hence why I rambled on about intending" but corrected that to "indenting". -- Brains12 \ talk 18:12, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I wonder if my highly volitile userbox means you have discretion to moderate your failure off my talkpage. Shotgun keeping it! hah, bl. Spawn ‎ Legacy 18:19, 14 August 2008 (UTC) I just lost the game!!1

I certainly don't intend to indent any colons. Sounds like a dirty job for forensics! Woop ‧ talk ‧ 19:25, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

image naming

Greetings! I just wanted to give you a heads up that the images you are uploading will be deleted because you have not named them correctly. If they are for use on your user page, they need to be named User <Username> <Imagename>.<Extension>. If they are for use on your guild page, they need to be named Guild <Full Guild Name> <Image Name>.<Extension>. Please reupload them, and remember to tag them as User images, or Guild images, and as Screenshots. These rules can be found in our image use policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask any Helper. -- Wynthyst 07:12, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I've finished uploading now. I hope the sizes of some being over 150kb isnt too much of an issue. If it is drop us a line. Spawnlegacy 08:26, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

That can be fixed if you use the |thumb parameter with the images.

Ie., [[Image:Guild The Sky Pirates GoodbyeGaileGray000.jpg|thumb|You truly cared Gaile and we will miss you very much.]] will display:

You truly cared Gaile and we will miss you very much.

--Fighterdoken 08:53, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Aw that's cool man. I'm pretty noob at the coding stuff so the more resources on this page the better xD until people start visiting me and realise I'm a noob.

Links

Hey Spawn, I slightly changed the links on your userpage; using internal links is easier than external, and they take up less space. If you don't like it, feel free to revert me ;) -Why 14:34, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Yet again, you are a fount of sage like wisdom. Spawnlegacy 12:31, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

no problem ;) -Why 12:43, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Can anyone give me any tips on coding the user page? I want a skill template to pop up the left of Spawn's picture and not below. Whatever code I try, it either stays there or screws up the page.

Discussions

Can you please stop using the discussion pages for arguements as they are not what they are there for, you should please listen to others opinions and please no not use foul language and i admit that i havent been doing any of that either and for that i am sorry. And i am also sorry for attacking your ideas and opinions as you have a right to have your own.

--Azreal of SkyrimFile:AZ.jpg 12:38, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

The first line was sarcasm which is illegal in wiki but read the post in its entirety. I'm exhausted, no more talking. Spawnlegacy 12:56, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Since when did sarcasm become a crime? -- NUKLEAR IIV 15:07, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Since before the policy proposal was rejected it would seem... http://www.wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild_Wars_Wiki:No_Sarcasm heheh I like the idea though. Should enforce it on myself so people don't get so confused when I'm being a dick to them. Spawnlegacy 19:31, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I just called to say...

...I love the image in your bearbox. Don't be upset if I steal it someday. -Why 16:18, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Not at all, I wanted something a little more direct than PvE balance xD Can you help us out? If I put a build template in, it wont go under the text because the thumbnail is in the way. Three weeks and I'm still learning, omg noob. Spawnlegacy 16:51, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Uhm, where did you try to put a build template in? -Why 18:56, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
Nevermind, found it. What you could do is place the {{skill bar}} template and the picture of your necro in one table, as in..

{| style="float:right;"
|[[Image:User Spawnlegacy Spawn Legacy.jpg|250px|thumb|Regular Badass]]
|-
|<center><font color={{r-color|dark}}>'''PvE'''</font></center>
|-
|{{skill bar|Power Drain|Enfeebling Blood|Insidious Parasite|Spiteful Spirit|Arcane Echo|Signet of Lost Souls|Necrosis|Sunspear Rebirth Signet|}}
|}

with that coding, the skill bar should be neatly below the image. See my sandbox for an example. -Why 19:14, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

What i wanted was just like neatly below the text on the left. Too much negative space DDD: Meh, I'll get used to it. Thankyou anyway mr, Fighting. Spawnlegacy 19:35, 16 July 2008 (UTC) Or is Mr. Fighting your father?

In that case, place the image in a table. Thislike:

{| style="float:right;"
|-
|[[Image:User Spawnlegacy Spawn Legacy.jpg|250px|thumb|Regular Badass]]
|-
|}

I think it might work, I'm not quite sure though. You could also try to make your own skill bar thingy. Or use {{User:Y0 ich halt/Templates/MiniBuild}}. And Mr. Fighting is the Lord of the Universe. :p -Why 20:05, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

My mistake. I think I kind of solved my layout issues by stealing your expanding code yet again. HAHA mine. Wait a couple minutes and visit the user page. Its gonna be epic. Spawnlegacy 20:13, 16 July 2008 (UTC) ..Well not really, but it aint bad.

Looks good ;) -Why 20:30, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I fail at wiki code. Took me like 5 tries but I finally have a reminder of that wonderful game, The Game. Wait a minute, that's a bad thing. oshit I just lost again... Spawnlegacy 15:15, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Lolz, Phailz much? I just lost The Game >.< --Wolf 15:19, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

What, my page? It's shocking! Spawnlegacy 15:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

No, I made that user box an template-ish, so it's only one small line of code now =D --Wolf 15:32, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Lawl, bet the sysops will delete it soon enough. Couldnt you have done that before I desecrated my user page 13244 times? Regardless, I'm humbled to be in the presence of your sage-like-wiki-wisdom Spawnlegacy 15:34, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

LAWL! My wiki-coding skills are not all that great. Plus, what I did is something Seru has been doing for a while now, and does with all his user-boxes. --Wolf 15:36, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Reformatting Feedback pages

My proposal is here. May partially solve the issues with User_talk:Isaiah_Cartwright and Talk:Ursan_Blessing being discussed on Community Portal Give us feedback on the proposal for feedback. Cookies if you do. Spawnlegacy 15:44, 11 August 2008 (UTC) Damn your edit conflict Wolf!

I reckon yours should be pink ^ ^ -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 12:29, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) When I deleted your original sig image I found this talk page, did you mean is that the way to tag stuff for deletion? If it is what you were asking, the best way to tag something for your user page (an actual page or an image starting with "User Spawnlegacy") is to use {{delete|U1:User request|speedy}}. Hope that helps :) --Kakarot 12:56, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Spelling Error

"Jugular" only has 1 "T". Unless you like mudering people who throw colorful balls around themselves, methinks you should move that. XD -- Wandering Traveler 14:23, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Lol. I think you're thinking of a juggler. Jugular is an artery in your throat.. I think. Hey have you got any expertise with categories, templates, generally making this look like this? -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 14:30, 15 August 2008 (UTC) just had an edit conflict with myself xD

I know. the page above is named "Pierce Juggular". Should only be one "G". Why in the name of dwayna did I put a T up there? o.O .....and there may be something that can help. on this? page, hit "edit" and take a look at the skill table template. That may be able to do what you want, but I have no idea >__<. -- Wandering Traveler 14:53, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

MOTHERF@#^ER! I hate it when I put typos in page name. I can't change it without creating a new one can i? Oh and I used the skill table template thing but it came up with '%DPL-1.7.4-WARNING: No results!' I think its got something to do with categories. Something I've got no idea how to do. No matter, I'll ask a random sysop. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 14:59, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, you're going to have to place your skills in a category for that to work, and I'm not sure how userspace categories work. And yeah, All we have to do is move the page to the correct title. I'll fix it for ya. -- Wandering Traveler 15:06, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

(Edit)okay, its moved, and the remnant up for deletion. You're page is now spelled correctly :) -- Wandering Traveler 15:08, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Many thanx Mr. Traveler <3 -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 15:34, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Skills table

Here is a thought for you to be able to easily create a skills table for your Swashbuckler. I have created two skills categories, Category:User created skills and a subcategory Category:Swashbuckler skills. Categorize your skill pages into the second one. Then you can just DPL the skills list. Just a thought. -- Wyn 10:32, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

It's flattering that you believe I'll be able to do that xD Thankyou very much Wyn, I won't disappoint you. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 10:41, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Btw... if you don't know how to add your skill pages to the category, just add [[Category:Swashbuckler skills]] at the bottom.-- Wyn 06:43, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

THAT'S ALL I NEEDED! THANKYOOOOO -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 10:44, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

See what I did to User:Spawnlegacy/Swashbuckler/skill/Lunge.-- Wyn 10:56, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Ohmygoditworked. You're a genious Wyn. I feel bad for creating so many useless pages but I'm gonna try making categories for the attributes. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 09:46, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Not a genius, just know a little bit more about how the wiki stuff works, you want genius, talk to poke :D -- Wyn 14:02, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

User Page Interference

Hi. Please be aware that your page, User:Spawnlegacy/Swashbuckler/skill/Embrace Elements is causing your homemade skill to display on the article List of elite skills - could you please sort this out using the correct code? Many thanks. – josəph 23:37, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Sure thing boss. I'll make em commons and put a gold square in when I make skill icons. If I ever do.. If there's anything else I haven't noticed, let me know. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 05:50, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

User skill infobox

Hey Spawnlegacy, did you know that there is a User skill infobox template as well as the normal skill infobox template you are presently using for the profession you created. The main difference between the two is that with the user one there is no categories so the issue mentioned in the message above this shouldn't occur again. Just thought I'd let you know since I finally remembered the name of the template; I meant to tell you before in the above section but couldn't remember the name at the time. --Kakarot 03:39, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

So if i just stick a new parameter 'user = User:Spawnlegacy' it'll stick (User Skill) under the title and won't turn up anywhere else? I'm a bit busy atm but I'll give it a shot later. Wyn's way works fine though. I just find sometimes I have to resend the information because the wiki gets confused and makes a mistake. Either that or I'm doing it all the time and people are correcting it without telling me. That's how I solved the last issue. Just edit > save.. :S wierd I know. -- Spawn ‎ Legacy 11:04, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

The user parameter is just for the image, and you would only need to put Spawnlegacy as it already includes the User part in the template so that it uses an image like User Spawnlegacy heart power.jpg. Just thought I'd let you know since it seems to be easier than the actual skill infobox. --Kakarot 13:28, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Swashbuckler Skill Misdirects

I was checking the missing pages and noticed that your create-a-profession Swashbuckler skills had most of the infoboxes directed towards the mainspace rather than the link I used above. Do you mind if I change them to get it removed from the missing pages list? This will also have the effect of correctly pointing anyone to your create-a-profession page rather than an empty page so they can see your work =).
