User talk:Calor/Archive 1

Welcome

die redlink :p

Hey, Calor :P --brains12 • (talk) • 22:43, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

They copied all the data (Edits, sig. etc) over from GWWiki. Interesting. I loled at seeing 372 main page views as #1. and u RC-watching bastard :p. Calor — talk 22:44, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

NPA NPA NPA NPA NPA!! Oh wait. We don't have one yet. --brains12 • (talk) • 22:45, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Anarchy ftw? O_o --- -- (s)talkpage 22:46, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I suppose. Two things, considering here's a good place to start. Firstly, why the hell does this even exist, as its GuildWars Wiki, not GuildWar1 Wiki. But w/e. Second, are all GWW sysops brought over here? Calor — talk 22:48, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Yep, GWW sysops and bureaucrats are the same here. I think it's for the time being though, until a proper RfA and adminship policies are present. --brains12 • (talk) • 23:21, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Ya, I kinda submitted a quasi-RfrC of all sysops in a discussion with Dir and DE. I think most, if not all will still be sysops after it. I'm surprised Eloc hasn't gotten himself over here yet. Also, I'm curious as to if GWW will simply die out, because I know ima be doing a load of editing the wanted pages next week over XMas break. Calor — talk 23:25, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Eloc will be kicking himself and his time zone :P. As to GWW, it probably will fade away. --brains12 • (talk) • 23:27, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Likely. To both. On a side note, brains, have you ever considered an RfA? You seem to know your way around the wiki and its coding well, and you're pretty cool-headed. Because reconfirmations are likely soon, and with only 10 or 11 sysops, another addition or two wouldn't hurt them. Calor — talk 23:30, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Someone should hurry and make a welcome template so Eloc can get started right away when he gets here :P --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

I cried from laughter. Absolutely genius. 18,00 redlink users, or close to it. Eloc the Welcoming Heaven. And you're officially unblocked and free to roam, here, right? Calor — talk 23:33, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Yessir, and I'm starting with a clean slate. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

Very nice. I'm quite interested to see if that slate dirties, and how fast it does so. Also, it's quite fun spam-clicking Random Page. I ended up on articles I created (only 3) ten straight times. Calor — talk 23:37, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Yea with like 11 pages up right now I'm having fun hitting random page, gets old though. --- Raptors / RAAAAAAAAAA!

Special Random was also fun whem we had 2 pages, Main page, and Editcopy. The editcopy came up about 85% of the time O_o --- -- (s)talkpage 23:39, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I made the editcopy :D, the first mainspace page :D . Yay me! --brains12 • (talk) • 23:40, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) x2 Heh, 6 non-stub pages up, 142 pages up (all namespaces). That's gotta be fun, too. Most action any of my talk pages have ever seen lol. And gratz brains. Calor — talk 23:41, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

My talk page is empty, as always. --brains12 • (talk) • 23:43, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

You should have seen GWW when it was first up, 3 minor edits in 2 days :p ~ SCobra 23:43, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Wow. This wiki's gonna be real fun. My new year's Resolution: Don't Let this wiki get as stiff and office-professional-no-fun-feely-like as GWW. Calor — talk 23:46, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm getting thesame feeling as on the Unoff Wiki ^^' I like it --- -- (s)talkpage 23:47, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Just goes to show how a wiki can run without any policies. --brains12 • (talk) • 23:48, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Until Gibberbots and mass vandals come. Hmmm...I just thought of something. Is there gonna be an in-game help system for GW2 linking here? Calor — talk 23:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I suppose it also depends on the people. But, yes, anarchies CAN work. But usually, only whem small. More people means more conflict. And I DO hope this 'Wiki will grow O_o --- -- (s)talkpage 23:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

All we need is Poke to set up some elaborate editing bot, and Zerpha and Fall for extracting all images from the .dat. Calor — talk 23:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

First thing poke needs to do is set up a GW2WT. Going to history then compare selected versions is so much hard work. --brains12 • (talk) • 23:51, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Aye, I want GWWT (or GW2WT) badly, and WikiSwap (So I guess we need AT also). But neither is overly needed yet, as there aren't too many mistakes made yet on this wiki as all fifteen of the major editors, the term "major" used loosely, here are very experienced. Calor — talk 23:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi calor :D --Cursed Angel 22:11, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Just a note, gwwt will contain a switch to the other wikis. poke | talk 22:14, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Show-off. Jk. You're absolutely great with scripting, Poke. Just need to refrain from any use of the back button on my mouse while heavily using GWWT. Calor — talk 22:20, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Ok another note, the back button-issue is the #1 on my list :P poke | talk 22:33, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry about functionality as much as content, unless the back-button thing is really nagging at you. Calor — talk 22:37, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

hi

i noticed i forgot your page for my watchlist... - Y0_ich_halt 22:55, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Your talk page has been on my watchlist for a couple months on GWW, and here since yesterday. Calor — talk 22:58, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Leave a message

It links to the GWW, not here. -- br12 • (talk) • 23:17, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Heh, thanks. I c/p'ed the box, and forgot the add a message link wasn't a wiki link. Calor — talk 23:18, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

the ironic thing is that Brains' link did that before too... -- ^Teo^ 21:48, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Tyria Map

Considering a lot of you have my talk page on your watchlist, and this question pertains to GW in general, here goes:
On GuildWiki or GWW, there was a map someone made that was kinda a grayish color throughout. It had their idea of where Tyria, Elona, Cantha, and the Battle Isles were. Every single spot was labeled. I've been searching for the map, but can't find it. I've gone to the page a bunch of times before, but now I can't find it, and it's really annoying the hell out of me. Anyone happen to know where it is? Thanks, Calor (t) 05:25, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Is it this one? --fraught · (talk) 06:01, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Rofl. I'd remembered it being on the talk page. I went to that page, read the first paragraph, and totally missed the map. Thank you, Calor (t) 16:25, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I'm not sure that is quite acurate. I've seen one before where the battle isles are farther north, and Cantha is more northeast. The one I've described would account for Utopian lands, if they are ever released (in GW2). --Homestarunner93

Perhaps, but I'm not as interested in relation to one another as I am in having all of them on one map. Calor (t) 21:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, it's all fan made maps, so they are all not right. -- Brains12 • Talk • 21:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Yeah. ANet hasn't released a full one yet, so we can only guess. And nice sig, Brains. Calor (t) 21:55, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Simple is better. -- Brains12 • Talk • 21:56, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Aye, I changed from my old one because it was a zillion characters. At least this one is a bit smaller. Have you seen Jioruji's sig yet while editiing? Absolutely massive. Calor (t) 21:58, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

My notes page

I saw the edit note re: my notes page. Just an FYI: the double E was intentional. See Wikimedia's Help:Magic words for the reason. Also, the page isn't currently intended to be subst or even inserted via a template - it's a cut-n-paste thing for now. As time goes by, I'll have other notes to myself on that page as well. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:54, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Note: For that specific link, either E or EE will work ... I just use EE for all links just to be consistant - I use EE on some other pages where it does make a difference. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:56, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah, sorry then. I'd never seen PAGENAMEE before, and assumed it was a typo, and things would've gone awry trying to copy/paste that or subst: it. Calor (t) 16:05, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

This page has not been edited in over a day!

You need to fix this problem! Lord Belar 20:49, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Lol, very nice. I sense someone just dialed 1-800-GW2-SPAM. Calor (t) 20:51, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Whatever gave you that idea? Lord Belar 20:55, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Lol, idk. Maybe it was the butler. Calor (t) 21:02, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

dude

you know when you flip between Gww and gw2w? well i was checking rc and pressed to see the dif on Brains talkpage from the last change.. (dunno why) and then i tried to switch to GWW i ended up on some strange page.. i might be able to get a pic, but do you have any explanation to why this happend?? ^Teo^ 21:47, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Now I'm tech support? Lmao, what's the world come to. Thirteen year old IT. But I believe it's because GWW doesn't have a page for that because the revision number is different, the users are different, etc. I can try myself and see what I get. Calor (t) 21:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I tested around a bit, and I see what you did (I think). The first try I switched and an error page on the wik came up saying an invalid title was requested or invalid characters, Return to Main Page. On the following attempts, it went to the same revision number instead of the same article because I suspect AT did WikiSwap, at least partially, by URL, so the whole thing that's oldid=&##### in the URL is the same on each wiki when using wikiswap. I ended up on the difference between edits to "Fansite" on GWW. Calor (t) 22:02, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

hmm.. ok, i was just confused.. ^Teo^ 22:04, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Grr

You have too many links on Special:Mostlinked. Also, your talk page takes up an extra slot there :P Doesn't count imo. -- Armond Warblade 22:47, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Lol, nice job on mostlinked there. :P Lord Belar 00:14, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I'd rather link to my talk than my userpage. So take out User:Calor from #2. And Belar, at least all of my posts aren't "Hai2u". Your sigspamming is so blatant it's not even funny :P. But hey, it's a new wiki. Do what you want. Calor (t) 00:36, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

At least "Hai2u" is better than "{{welcome}}" on the new user's talk pages. Lord Belar 00:38, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

/Agree. Calor (t) 00:40, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Grothmar

Would you mind pointing us to where that discussion was (Talk:Grothmar Wardowns) - anja 21:54, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

That's the problem, as it was on Talk:Grothmar wardowns. :/ Lord Belar 22:50, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

I can't find it in history (and I should be able to as sysop) so that seems to be wrong. - anja 22:50, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Grothmar Wardowns and its talk was deleted after an initial discussion about a week ago. I don't know how far sysop powers extend, and if said material can be viewed/restored. I'm fairly sure there was a discussion on that page about retaining or deleting the Grothmar Wardowns article, and we eventually (by consensus) chose to have it deleted because it was two lines of text, and mostly GW1-related info. Maybe the discussion was elsewhere, however. Calor (t) 23:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Must have been.. I can see the log and history of the article, but not the talk. Not even noted in the deletion log, so it was never deleted. - anja 08:34, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

*deep sigh* I know I've not lost my mind... There was a discussion somewhere pertaining to that article and similar-quality articles, and the final consensus was to delete it. Calor (t) 19:28, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Further, after searching more, I can't find it. Considering anymore searching is likely pointless, let's continue the discussion on Talk:Grothmar Wardowns operating under the idea that there was no discussion. *shrugs* Calor (t) 19:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Nice

new sig! It finally makes you look like you have a userpage! (no red sigs ftw!)--MP47 (Talk) (Contr.) 03:09, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey! Red is good. Lord Belar 03:13, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Lmao, thanks. I extracted that icon from .Dat, and I have no idea what it is. But for some reason my sig doesn't work on here as it does on GWW, likely because of the difference in MediaWiki versions. Calor 03:50, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh, it does. Cool. Didn't before. Calor 03:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Now, if you'd just make it red... :P Lord Belar 03:59, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Belar, do you know how tempted I am to make some edit to your redlink page? Calor 04:14, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

But now I'm the only one with a red link! :( Lord Belar 04:15, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Lmao, I had a red link, you have a redlink. There's a difference. Calor 04:17, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

calor, i think you should indeed just create his user page with an empty space on it :P - Y0_ich_halt 20:27, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Your wish is my command. Sorry Belar, lmao. Calor 20:40, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, Belar, you're too smart. I figured you made your sig color the same red. Ah well. Calor 20:42, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

lol, belar vs calor - 1:0 - Y0_ich_halt 22:19, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, all of the older links just changed color though. Lord Belar 22:23, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

and you can't do anything against the blue underlining. - Y0_ich_halt 23:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

I noticed. And I think it's 2-1 Belar, as I blued his page but he changed his sig, and outsmarted me. Calor 01:14, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

User talk:Example

Thanks :P -- Brains12 \ Talk 02:14, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Haha. I saw that, and my first thought was "Enjoying your monologue?". I figured I'd make it look like you have friends and make every other post mine. Note that I took the role of the smart, knowledgeable users and you took the role of the new user. Calor 02:28, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Insult much? "make it look like you have friends" ;) -- Brains12 \ Talk 02:29, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Never said you didn't. Just made it appear that you do. Appearances don't need to be deceitful. Calor 02:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

If we were in IRC, I would've done the slap thing on you a couple times by now :) Calor 2:42, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

eeeek

can u get on GWW I cant eeeek it wont let me even get to the main page. --Shadowphoenix 05:33, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

GWW was wicked slow for me earlier too. But why did you need me on GWW? Calor 17:50, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Unrelevant -> irrelevant

Yeah, I noticed that after I saved. Didn't want to save again, so I just left it. -- Plingggggg \ Talk 20:37, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I figured. You normally notice your mistakes, and your English is above that of a fourth grade level (see this for more). Calor 21:01, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Beta

Hi Im the guy who edited Guild Wars 1 stuff into Guild Wars 2 stuff. Just asking do you know when the Beta test is being tested.79.69.110.209 20:22, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Right now it's looking like early next year, but that's probably going to get bumped back. --67.176.107.126 21:39, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Where on earth are you getting that crap from? Afaik, the last official word we heard was beta in late 2008 and that's still the story. --Aspectacle 21:48, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Closed beta + six months = open beta, usually. --71.229.204.25 22:24, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

That's a drugged formula. Try open beta = when Anet announces ;). I put it closer to +3 - 4 months. Calor 02:08, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

That's about how long it was for WAR and WoW, figured it'd be the best guess until Anet finally says something. --71.229.204.25 04:10, 17 March 2008 (UTC) give or take a month, my brain's fuzzy today
