Looks good, imo, based on a rather unthorough glance. --Edru viransu 01:50, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

inorite? Might as well give it a shot on this wiki since the old one is beyond repair. —ǥrɩɳsɧƿoɲ 01:52, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Go for it, before the policy maniacs arrive. Lord Belar 04:27, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Hybrid sysatem's do not work. Backsword 12:08, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Please, good sir, enlighten me on the definition of a "sysatem's". —ǥrɩɳsɧƿoɲ 00:50, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

The word system by somebody typing a tad too fast. Calor (t) 00:51, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you Calor, I was aware of this. This was merely sarcasm and lightly poking fun of his intelligence. —ǥrɩɳsɧƿoɲ 00:53, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

i'm starting to belive that Calor does not now what sarcassm is.. aand that scares me ^Teo^ 00:57, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Lol, I know. I knew you were being sarcastic, and I just wasn't sarcastic at all in my response (quite sadly). Calor (t) 01:07, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

yeah right :p ^Teo^ 11:58, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Bitch about my signature

I'm not going to respond or read anything you write in this section. —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 16:19, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

O GUUD WTF IZ TAHT SIG IZ AL LIEK OFMG KK??? --GL4S AR00WS 16:38, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

It's ... unique. :P Lord Belar 18:57, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

thought you weren't aloud to have animate dpictures in sig...or is that only for every other wiki?--FireTock 22:26, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Spirit over letter. It's not an animation of the Gaile vandalism story, a little winking pie never hurt anyone. —̵SEERINFLOOMES 22:27, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

It's cake. —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 22:28, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Cake is disruptive. it encourages the thought of eating, and thus distracts editors from adding to an endless policy discussion. Lord of all tyria 22:29, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

It's kinda cute, if you sit and stare at it long enough. :P Lord Belar 22:30, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

do we have any policies that says it's forbidden to have a animated sig icon? or are we going after the GWW ones? ^Teo^ 22:31, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

We're going with whatever grinch says, because he's got a cool sig. :P Lord Belar 22:35, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

nice ^^ §--§ ^Teo^ 22:36, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Though I love the pic.

you're not allowed to use animating sigs.. --The Holy Dragons 16:01, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

What THD said. You seem to have ignored it. Aqua (T|C) 23:30, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

We can also just delete the signature icon if you continue to ignore these messages, of course. - Infinite - talk 15:16, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Does it bother you? —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 15:19, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

The image blinks so infrequently and so quickly (and subtly) that you have to be staring at it to realise it's an animation. The filesize isn't large either - it's barely larger than my own (and much much smaller than, say, The Holy Dragons'). Personally, I'm not worried about this particular sig. (It's also not a rule that animations "aren't allowed".) pling 15:28, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

If Pling says so, it's fine. (Though I do remember other animations were taken down, with the same filesizes and the same type of animations.) - Infinite - talk 15:30, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

That comment is just my personal opinion - please don't agree on the basis that I said it. pling 15:33, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, you've given the final say in quite a bit of discussions now, and I don't think other admins need to look into this matter either. It's just a signature after all. (And I can't find the signatures talks that were affected back then anyway, as they have been deleted years ago). Nor does the P&P have a line on animated signatures. So unless we want another discussion on where to draw the line for animated signatures... We could also ask poke about the technical stuff behind animated signatures on IRC, I suppose. - Infinite - talk 15:42, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

There's no technical stuff. It's just an image file. 16:06, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Intermittent loading problems says hi. That was technical. But as I said back there, that is only affected by big images, not an indefinite copy of one small. So I still stand with Pling says it's fine. :P - Infinite - talk 16:18, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

(Reset indent) My concern is not that this one is really that bad, but that if we said "well, this one is okay," then we can be certain to have animating sigs that are not as harmless as this one. But upon requests to not use distracting/animating sigs, people will site this discussion as a reason for why we're being partial to specific people. Aqua (T|C) 19:53, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Administrative discretion. Wikis are built upon that principle. —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 20:03, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes, but on many occasions, administrative discretion leads to things like "they play favorites," "they target me" or "they are elitists." (I am aware that's how wikis function, but other (newer) people might not understand.) Aqua (T|C) 20:07, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Then they can read the policy page. If they're on a wiki, they can probably read. Hopefully. If they don't like the policy, they're welcome to debate it on the policy talk page. —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 20:10, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

If a signature is "not as harmless as this one", it'd be acceptable too. If people disagreed with its acceptability, hopefully it wouldn't be because of a rule - they'd be expected to rationalise why it should (or should not) be removed. This overlaps with the practices&processes idea. Speaking of which - Mgrinshon: there aren't any policies here. See GW2W:PP instead. Also, instead of admin discretion, I'd say it'd be more community consensus. Signatures aren't really an admin issue. pling 20:15, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I've been away for the past few days because I just swamped with work the second I came back to school after break. Work on the wiki guide will restart shortly. —ǥrɩɳsɧƴɖɩđđɭɘş 21:36, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Lol, school. I don't go back till monday. :P Lord Belar 23:11, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
