Redirect

Hi there.

Would you like people who click the potato to be brought to your user page or talk page? A F K When Needed 12:11, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

What about my contributions?--AdventurerPotatoe - 14:33, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

As far as I know it's deemed necessary to be able to easily get to the page of the image (e.g. without having to bother manipulating the URL manually). On a user / talk page you can click a link at the top which will send you back to the page of the image, but that link fails to appear on your contributions page.

If you insist I'll do the redirect to your contributions as you request, but I think it'd be better to stick the icon at the start of your signature, and then you can have the User|Talk|Contributions link you appear to be after in the order you appear to be after.

Your signature and your call at the end of the day. A F K When Needed 00:15, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I insist.--AdventurerPotatoe - 00:18, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

I used to run a N/A build in some minor pvp areas (AB, JQ, FA) for fun that revolved around spinal shivers. I used reapers mark and spinal shivers, and some cover hex, Rigor Mortis I think. Shadowstep to them and fairwell caster. It was fun. Also to note, barbs won't work with a cold weapon. Venom20 19:31, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

I'll take away barbs then, any ideas on improvements? --AdventurerPotatoe - 19:44, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Might want to throw in whirling charge for increased attack/movement. I rarely ever play with my dervish so I might not know the best skills to use pvp. The scythe is slow, I'd be interested to see how this turns out :o Venom20 20:18, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

If this is true, I'd love to see a link or something where ANet confirmed this! I hadn't heard of any further knowledge about the Necromancer's fate past the appearance of a Sylvari Necromancer in Ghosts of Ascalon. Nykki 00:21, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

They mentioned it when speaking of Ghosts of Ascalon in an article, I looked for it, though I couldnt find it. --AdventurerPotatoe - 00:27, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

About your sig...

I don't think we're allowed to have animated images for our signatures as it slows down pages. I could be wrong, so don't change it unless someone smarter than I tells you to, but be prepared. :P Eive 01:22, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thank you. --AdventurerPotatoe - 01:23, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi; that is most certainly not permitted.

You may ask an Administrator if you prefer to hear it from one of them. A F K When Needed 12:49, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

(RI) I have added a deletion tag to the image, and I have removed the redirect to your contributions. The deletion tag due to animated signature images not being allowed. The redirect removal as it makes it more time consuming for people to get to - as I told you previously - and there's no need to give the Administrator deleting it more work to do.

I would again ask you reconsider linking to your contributions from a signature image. Have a nice day. A F K When Needed 13:40, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

I asked Pling instead, he havent answered yet, there's one other member that uses a sig image that is way bigger(in kB) than mine. Secondly, remove the deletion tag, I will upload an new unanimated version with the same file name if Pling says no to it. --AdventurerPotatoe - 13:47, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

The current stale-but-generally-adherred-to policy proposal says absolutely not we shall see what Pling says, and you have my word I'll accept his judgement either way.

However I do find it hard to believe he'll give you the green light, as the very idea of a long talk page with a flashing image on every second line makes my head hurt. A F K When Needed 17:31, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Wrong conclusions

→ moved from Talk:Professions reveal

Mesmers arent the only possible profession left to return. They said that the Assassin had its roots in Cantha, not all professions from other countries never spread to the rest of the world. Remember that the Guardian came from 250 years of Paragon and Monk teaching merging together? --AdventurerPotatoe - 23:24, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

I think the thinking was done like this:

no monk, only proph names (as they don't want to that apparently).
leaving only the mesmer.--SierraThat's me 23:29, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Where'd you get that 'only proph names' from? I think that part should be removed, its speculation. --AdventurerPotatoe - 23:32, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

This was also asked in the section #Revert on upcoming. - Infinite - talk 23:45, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) Each of the non-Prophecies professions is deeply rooted in its campaign's continent. Guardian example definitely doesn't help – it's the guardian, not the paragon. –~=Ϛρѧякγ (τѧιк) ←♥– 23:49, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

We've made a pretty shoddy interpretation on the reference given:

*1: They said that they didn't want to give the name assassin to the thief because they wanted to avoid parallels between GW2 and Cantha.

*2: They say this because Cantha will initially be inaccessible during the initial release of GW2, which automatically cuts out the ritualist as well.

*3: Elona is also inaccessible during the initial release of GW2, but we know this from a separate source.

*4: If they don't want to draw parallels between the Canthan assassin and GW2, then by rule of deduction they should apply that same line of thought with the elonian dervish and paragon.

*5: We know from yet another source that monks aren't going to be included, and four of the other original professions have already been revealed, leaving the mesmer as the strongest candidate for an upcoming profession.

Number 4 is the part that isn't explicitly mentioned anywhere, it's just really good speculation. Number 5 follows after number 4. So as far as I care, it doesn't matter if the note stays or is taken off, it doesn't offer any new information. Of course, I'm just reverberating information that's already been discussed, so...yeah.(Xu Davella 23:55, 19 March 2011 (UTC))

The only reason why the mesmer is the returning profession is because it is a returning profession in name, tied to the original GW. This is monk or mesmer and monks have been officially rewritten in the lore. It simply leaves mesmer.

The other upcoming profession is a new one and is in no way related to the original GW. - Infinite - talk 00:00, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Since travel between tyria and elona does excist thanks ot the order of whispers but not available for players it makes me wonder if teachings of professions from elona could still make it to elona. We have the guardian who is basicly a paragon/prot monk/weapons rit and the thief an assassin/trapper, so why would it not be possible for the last 2 professions to have skills based former non-core professions (altough i agree on that the mesmer will return since it's basicly a gw only class and we are also still missing the hex mechanic in gw2). Altough the 3 core arche types (the holy trinity tank, dps, heal) are not gonna be present it does seem that gw2 is gonna use sub-arche types like the durable frontliner (warrior), nuker (elementalist), beastmaster (ranger),undead summoner (necromancer), rogue (thief) and paladin (guardian). With that in mind it makes me wonder if there will be a spellblade class (dervish in gw1) will be returning as well as the last traveler class. Damysticreaper 12:57, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay, if anyone here didnt get it, if ANet wants to, they can write any lore they want to back it up and make an exception.Its an unfalsifiable hypothesis, none can argue with that. --AdventurerPotatoe - 13:22, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

The mesmer is the profession that is coming back, I will bet my soul on it. The evidence is strong, although the only proof that could exist is if someone either worked at ArenaNET or came back to save Sarah Connor from the year 2037. The Krytan Queen is a mesmer. The armor art from various shots is identical to the armor art from Guild Wars 1 mesmers. Mesmers are one of the most unique professions in Guild Wars 1. They are coming back. Quitcho whining. — Omigawa 7:30, 29 Jan 2011 (UTC) 14:42, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) (Reset indent) "at least one was a returning profession, at least one was similar with a different name, and at least one was new"; Returning profession means with the same name, for reasons above, this can only be the mesmer. One similar with a different name is the thief, which is near-fully based on the assassin. One new one is the guardian. I'm not saying the last profession does not necessarily root into a foreign gw1 profession, I'm only saying that the mesmer is, no matter how you twist words around, the only candidate for the returning profession. The only other option is monk and the guardian backstory tells us what happened to them. - Infinite - talk 14:43, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

IMO, it's speculation. ArenaNet has never said that "they did not want to draw any lore parallels between Tyria and the other continents since players would initially not be able to visit Cantha or Elona"; ArenaNet has said that about Cantha only. Of course, one could interpret that information and assume it works for both Cantha and Elona, but that's what speculation is. Unless it's stated with all letters by ArenaNet, I don't think it should be on this article. Erasculio 14:47, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

They did not want to make lore parallels with Cantha, which is not available in initial release, the same goes for Elona. I think it's calling speculation on something that was (admittedly) left out, but still due to phrasing completely applicable. And even if it wasn't, the paragon has already been reworked into the guardian and the dervish can not return in name, as that beats its definition (due to some races not being religious). It's obvious as to why they didn't state this; the community should know this by default. ;) - Infinite - talk 14:56, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I would rather leave only ArenaNet's statement, and let people take their own conclusions (which will be the same thing stated above, but that will be people's own conclusions). After everything we have done to remove speculation, keeping something that is actually just speculation on this article isn't sitting well with me. Erasculio 15:03, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I don't think deduction = speculation, but I'm fine with leaving the raw statement. - Infinite - talk 15:04, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

We cannot make any conclusions, ANet can make any exceptions they want. As long as they doesnt say that no foreign professions(from Tyrian perspective) will return, its speculation. None can argue with that since its unfalsifiable. End of discussion. (Fyi, I think Mesmers will return, I'm just saying we cant know for sure yet)--AdventurerPotatoe - 15:08, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Then why talk about it? You can't know anything for sure. How do you know life didn't begin the second you read this message, and all those "memories" you have were pre-programmed into your brain? — Omigawa 7:30, 29 Jan 2011 (UTC) 15:20, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I cant know that. But that doesnt matter, what matters is that the Mesmer ist the only possible returning profession. It could be any other profession. --AdventurerPotatoe - 15:45, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

You're right, but much like the rest of reasonable humanity, we don't tend to question strong evidence. There is ONLY ONE returning profession. There is overwhelming evidence for mesmer. You would be as intelligent to question the mesmer's return as you would be to question whether reality really did begin 15 minutes ago. — Omigawa 7:30, 29 Jan 2011 (UTC) 15:55, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

You're missing the pont, the point is that you cant prove Mesmers with that evidence. --AdventurerPotatoe - 17:23, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Respectfully, take it to the user space (and read the banner above. Kthnxbai. Aqua (T|C) 17:25, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) x2 "we don't tend to question strong evidence": we do so here, actually. The issue is that more often than not what is "strong evidence" and what isn't is in the eye of the beholder. To give a very palpable example: take all those theories about how GW2 works from GW2G. Most of them are ridiculous, but those proposing them actually believe they have strong evidence of how they are right. If those theories were added to this wiki's mainspace, we would have to waste a very long time just trying to convince people that no, GW2 won't be dominated by "LF for Guardian to go" and etc. That's one of the reasons why we don't add speculation to this wiki - the difference between "wild and completely baseless guess" and "refined and objective deduction" is not so clear to everyone, so we better not have any kind of speculation at all.

It's obvious that the returning profession is the mesmer. We have the mesmer wallpaper, we know mesmers are one of the three kinds of spellcasters in the world of GW2 (with the other two being the other scholar professions), we know one of the two remaining professions is a returning one, and so on. Yet we are not stating with all the letters that the mesmer will return at the mesmer article since ArenaNet has not said so (yet), and therefore any such claim would be speculation. It's better to just state the facts, and let people make their own leaps of logic from there. Erasculio 17:29, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Fair statement. So. Facts: One more profession is returning. There are Mesmers in Guild Wars 2. There is a wallpaper that bears an exact resemblance to a Mesmer. There is one more scholar profession. So, if the overwhelming evidence for Mesmer's return is indicative of their return, then Mesmer is the only profession that is returning. — Omigawa 7:30, 29 Jan 2011 (UTC) 17:51, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I agree. But for the reasons above, I would only keep at the mainspace here everything you said until "So, if the"... The rest can be deduced by anyone who reads it. Erasculio 17:58, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

(Reset indent) The raw facts on the returning professions are as follows:

• We have already seen the warrior, ranger, necromancer and elementalist return. There will be one more returning profession.
• We found out that the assassin-remake has been named thief to not draw parallels between Canthan lore and GW2 lore, because Cantha will not be available in the initial release. This rules out both ritualist and assassin as the returning profession.
• The guardian backstory explicitly mentions monks and paragons. Neither of those can return.
• The two remaining possibilities are mesmer and dervish. The dervish can not return in *name* because not all races are religious (namely charr, asura and sylvari). Following this, the dervish profession may have been remade to fit the last adventurer, but not the scholar.
• Adding up all points leaves mesmer, being the only applicable profession that could make a return. Read, again, it needs to return in its original name, which is what the source says. Therefore, with no speculation involved, the returning profession is the mesmer. - Infinite - talk 18:03, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

No. ANet can make exceptions how much they want to. They can say that the Ritualist will return whenever they want too. We cant base too much on what ANet says, they're not always political correct. I've seen them say things that seem stupid to an active GW2 fan just to keep it simple. They didnt want to draw any lore paralells between Tyria and Cantha, because the ASSASSIN(not all professions) has its roots very deep in Cantha. At any point they can say that Ritualists have always been and didnt have its roots in Cantha. We know that there are Ritualists in Elona too. --AdventurerPotatoe - 18:23, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

So now you're saying to not take the facts literally? What is wrong with you? After saying speculation is bad, you're saying we should speculate on THEIR STATED FACTS? — Omigawa 7:30, 29 Jan 2011 (UTC) 18:33, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

"The dervish can not return in *name* because not all races are religious (namely charr, asura and sylvari). Following this, the dervish profession may have been remade to fit the last adventurer, but not the scholar": that's speculation; as in, ArenaNet has never stated that. Again, IMO it would be much simpler to just state the facts we have been told and leave it open to interpretation. 99% of the reasonable people who read it will come to the same conclusion everyone here has (the mesmer is the returning profession). Leaving room for adding speculation based on deduction is allowing others to add to the wiki information based on their own, often flawed and misguised, deduction. Erasculio 18:40, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) It's alright, Omigawa. :P

The Canthan roots for ritualists are stronger than for the assassin. And if we can't document based on what ArenaNet, half this wiki should be taken down. :< - Infinite - talk 18:42, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

And how is those 3 races not being religious speculation? Or do you mean the latter point? I based that on the fact that mesmer would be a scholar, I guess that part *is* speculation. - Infinite - talk 18:42, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Well it's nice and all that anet can change things as much as they like, but i doubt anet is gonna make exceptions in their well thought over story line and will do things others not fitting the story background. Seeing all the fact-based evidence going towards the return of the mesmer it would be highly unlikly almost stupid to think the ritualist would return just because anet would be making exceptions. The only thing that is open for speculation is the last traveler profession wich in my speculations will be spellblade class partially based on the dervish. Damysticreaper 19:09, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay, my point is that making Assassins into Thieves does not restrict ANet to include Paragons, Ritualists or whatevs just because they Assassins had its roots deep in Cantha. Even when all connections to Elona was cut off, there must've been Tyrian Paragons so that Paragons and Monk could evolve into the Guardian. The White Mantle had Ritualists and somehow Elona had Ritualists with no known connection to Cantha. ANet can twist and bend lore how much they want too. I'm not arguing against Mesmers, I'm arguing against the evidence for it. --AdventurerPotatoe - 19:25, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

The ritualists in Tyria were not like the ritualists in Cantha in lore. It's not twisting lore, it's two entities which happen to share name. And as I said, the guardian backstory tells us what happened to paragons and monks. The evidence (save the classification of armor) is as how put it, at this moment in time. By ruling out, following said evidence, there is indirect evidence of the mesmer profession. The line in the article may/should be altered as such. Note that indirect evidence does not equal speculation. If it did equal speculation, I wouldn't be defending it. :P - Infinite - talk 21:22, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

The point in which me and you disagree with is on what speculation is. I don't think deduction from indirect evidence is any different from speculation; I rather expect most speculation to come from indirect evidence, instead of being just baseless guesses. The thing is, even that kind of speculation is not necessarily correct. For example:

• ArenaNet has told us that at least two professions other than rangers can use pets (the link is in this article).
• When describing the rangers, ArenaNet made it clear that pets are animal companions (which is why the article in this wiki about pets is entirely about animal companions).
• Of the known profession, no one other than rangers uses those animal companions.
• There are only two professions left to be released.
• Therefore, those two remaining professions will also use animal companions.
• A suporting argument is the fact that there are animal companions rewards from the Hall of Monuments. No other reward is exclusive to a single profession; all weapons can be used by more than one of them. Therefore, it's only logical to expect that the animal companions rewards from the HoM also won't be used for a single profession, the ranger, and so it's more evidence that the two unknown professions will also use animal companions.

Yet we know all of the above is wrong; by "pets", ArenaNet actually meant not specifically what they had described earlier as pets (the animal companions), rather also things such as minions. It's very likely that only rangers will use the animal companions. But if we were talking about deduction, someone could put fort the argument above and demand that, if we add the deduction about mesmers being the returning profession, we should also add the deduction that mesmers will use animal companions in GW2. Erasculio 21:35, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Show me how one would deduce that with two remaining professions to be revealed, before calling it out. - Infinite - talk 21:43, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Deduce that the above is not true, or that it's true? Erasculio 22:16, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Holy crap. I get nuked by walls of 'NOSPECULATIONUSERSPACENAO' for drawing logical conclusions on the Mesmer talk page, citing the fact that I put it on that page specifically to avoid a big battle like this one, and yet I see some of the same people who called me out engaging in it here. Gotta love blatant, unabashed, shameless hypocrisy.--Ph03n1x 02:55, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Are you even reading this discussion? Sounds like a very dumb thing to write, IMO.(Xu Davella 05:25, 21 March 2011 (UTC))

Yes, I am even reading this conversation. I read the whole thing, and IMO, it's pretty dumb to completely discount a valid claim just because you may fit the category of people to whom I'm referring.--Ph03n1x 06:06, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

...OK. (Xu Davella 08:05, 21 March 2011 (UTC))

I was not speculating; I was deducing a possible change to the article, based on the facts used in and for said article. If it was speculation I would go something like: "It's a mesmer, it's a scholar and obviously uses these weapons, has this many sets, yadayada."

"we should also add the deduction that mesmers will use animal companions in GW2." That one. I can not find any way to deduce that out of the two remaining professions, it *has* to be mesmer, even if you take the fact that we still don't know whether minions are actually pets into account. - Infinite - talk 12:33, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

When GW came out animal companions and minions were both concidered pets, how do i know?.

Quote from my Guild Wars Official Game Guide section pets :Pets are similar to henchmen in that they can't be directly controlled and are subject to gaining experience and dying as they travel with you, but the similarities end there. A character can obtain pets in one of two ways.

Rangers acquire pets by using the Charm Animal skill. After taming an animal, any time they enter a mission or explorable area with Charm Animal on their Skill Bar, the pet appears besides them and stays with them untill death or untill the Ranger enters a town or outpost. Animal Companions range from Melandru's Stalker (cats), to moa birds, to wolves and other beasts. Just about any animal that shows green can be tamed. Rangers can also improve their pets trough the Beast Mastery attribute and related skills and their pets gain level much like henchmen do during battle.

Necromancers' pets are more temporary, obtained by animating the corpses of the fallen. These pets eventually expire unless healed or reanimated from a fresh corpse.

After that a third pet user the ritualist came into play with it's spirits when factions came out, but since anet has stated there will be only 2 pet users and we already have the ranger's animal companion and the necromancer's minions so it can be easily concluded the ritualist will not return nor will there be a profession revealed that uses a pet since we already have the 2 petusers revealed the necromancer and the ranger.

^ There is indeed also that. (Though people continue to claim that it's not applicable to GW2, which is a strange thing to claim.) Either way, the facts we have in hand point out that the mesmer will be the returning profession, albeit indirectly (they haven't actually said; the mesmer will return, though their various other lines combined state, nothing else but the mesmer can make a return). Inexample; x²=x*x even if we hear ArenaNet only announce x², we can conclude x*x is also fact. - Infinite - talk 14:13, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

That was GW1, in GW2 the game guide might say something different, and if you read what Erasculio said, he stated that ANet made clear that pets means animal companions. In another article they said that a number(plural) of professions could use pets besides the Ranger. Two professions are left, atleast two professions must have pets. So, the Mesmer MUST have an animal companion if we can trust ANet's word. --AdventurerPotatoe - 15:26, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Could the third adventurer be engineerish that builds robotic pets? Or is that just to silly. nvm. I'm just gonna hop out of this convo and wait for the reveals. --Moto Saxon 15:46, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

It is said on the ranger page that animal companions are pets wich does not mean that all pets are animal companions. Seeing all animal companions as pets is a view from the players not anet. As i already said earlier so far minions in gw1 are seen as pets as well and unless evidence proves otherwise for gw2 with the last traveler reveal (mesmers having a pet is a laughable joke if you ask me) you can say we have 2 pet users so far. If there will be a last pet user wich does not include the necromancer i am interrested wich pet system it uses. Don't think it will be animal companions since tha tbelongs to the ranger wich identifies the ranger as it is i don't think anet would remove that unique aspect of the ranger.

The wiki isnt perfect. There are facts yet to be added. --AdventurerPotatoe - 16:43, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

A number of professions can also equal 1. - Infinite - talk 16:57, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

The last time i was playing gw1 whit my rit i could go to tyria why would it be impossible that non rit trainers went there and did'nt go back to chanta.

Archive? This has gotten pretty huge and not really related to anything (kind of all over the place). 136.159.70.20 21:06, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Actually, the vast majority of this discussion was not discussion, but a summary and deducation of facts. At this length, I'd say it's a feat to this talk page, if anything. - Infinite - talk 21:44, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Well if it's a big deduction of facts let's finish this uhh discussion and sum up the facts we have overviewed and try to come to a conclusion with the learned (hard) facts wich profession will apear and wich not. Any other discussion following it will be either archived or send to the user space of the one who started the topic, sounds good? Damysticreaper 11:57, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Maybe I'm missing something, or maybe others are overlooking it... But all of the professions revealed to date had concept art in the GDC 2010, that were done in that profession's GW2 colors. Of the remaining concept art that follows that pattern, only the purple lady holding a fan hasn't been revealed, and the fan is known as a Mesmer's focus. (As is the purple color.) And while the Norn female with a sword, of the unrevealed professions appears to have more Ritualist-like tatoo's than norn, the fact remains that we have yet to see the purple fan wielding lady's profession revealed.--Warzog Watch your six! 20:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Everyone, please stop. This discussion was poorly placed to begin with; now stop with the speculation here and take it to a forum or the userspace. Aqua (T|C) 22:01, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Steam

I can haz? :P A F K When Needed 13:06, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, Steam doesnt really allow me to add or accept anybody and claims that I have no games... I'm not sure it would be very useful. But here it is anyways:

Login name: MatoranIgnika

Try, I dont know if its my login name or the nickname since I never add people that way. :P Why'd you need it? --AdventurerPotatoe - 13:30, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

So sorry for the delay; my health evaporated. Hopefully I'll recover fairly quickly.

I was attempting to be social and gain a friend on Steam :P It claims to have found you under the name Woo! I'll be either my username or umop ap!sdn A F K When Needed 18:02, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Lol. I changed my name to Woo! today, I see you've added me. But Steam claims that I dont own any games and that we cant be friends because of that. I would never want to have steam as my dad;

Me: I have a new friend!

Dad: No, you dont have any games, sorry son.

So yeah, I cant press accept until, well, I dont know... Maybe I need to add YOU? --AdventurerPotatoe - 18:39, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

lol your dad seems kinda harsh ._. --The Holy Dragons 19:00, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

I hope you realize that wasnt for real?... Sorry for being bad to read/or not to read sarcasm over the internet. --AdventurerPotatoe - 19:41, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Your sig...

Is using the actual tango icon for the engineer. Typically it is best to use one uploaded to your userspace, so that the tango icon doesn't link to a bunch of odd places. - 17:43, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

I guess I cant use an argument based on that it saves space then? I'll do it now. --AdventurerPotatoe - 18:05, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

"1KB" Nope. - 18:45, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

You already have the space reserved for your old sig, you can just replace the old image instead of creating a new file location on the wiki, too ~~ Kiomadoushi 18:56, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Uloading images

Good day, can you please remember the formatting for uploading images. Especially the parts concerning user images. Thanks, I already corrected a few. Venom20 22:20, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Deleting pages

Only sysops can delete pages or files, ordinary users can, however, tag them for deletion like you did. --Ventriloquist 15:55, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Okay, thank you! --AdventurerPotatoe 16:26, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Your images

Just leaving your images here so they are not unused. —Kvothe (talk) 17:58, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
