User talk:Entropy/templates/lame

Fyren, what exactly does the category do? ...and, why doesn't it actually include? Just curious. Entropy 04:16, 3 January 2007 (CST)
 * It was including, which is why I removed it. We don't need (talk) pages being put into random categories.  --Fyren 04:30, 3 January 2007 (CST)
 * Ah okay. However the category was still blank, the talk pages weren't actually included in the cat. I just assumed it was broken. For argumentative purposes, though, I wanted it to be a cat, so folks who love to argue for "trash skills" have a handy place to look. ;)
 * I understand why it's bad though, in terms of wiki maintenance; my apologies. Entropy 04:37, 3 January 2007 (CST)
 * I solved the problem myself, Fyren, I added a link to the "What Links Here..." specialpage into the templage. :) Entropy 04:52, 3 January 2007 (CST)
 * The talk pages were in the category before I changed your template. --Fyren 19:44, 3 January 2007 (CST)

A change
I propose another variable that can be used to change "sucks" to something along the lines of "is overpowered" for use on skills that are lame because they're way too strong --Gimmethegepgun 13:55, 4 May 2007 (CDT)
 * A good idea. This is why you're second-in-command. ;) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 23:38, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

An opposite to this?
I was thinking something like "Unbelievably Bitchin' Even for a Roxxor UBER" for all those skills that we know and love (SS). Maybe someone else has another name for this template, I just got the idea from those guilds. Phalmatticus 18:57, 15 May 2007 (CDT)Phalmatticus

I'ave been pondering making some template like that also, but like you I am at a loss for a good name to the template. LAME is great because it's actually an acronym, thanks to User:Queen Schmuck. It is short, catchy, and easy to remember when posting the template; it is well-known. But for GOOD skills, what sort of other suitable thing could be done? I need inspiration... Once I have that, the actual making of the template is easy, it would be basically a copy of this one but green and "Favored". (T/C) 19:05, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

PvXwiki
If you don't mind, I'm gonna copy this over to PvXwiki. It has a lot of potential there. I'll make sure to attribute it to you. --Wizardboy777 11:26, 16 September 2007 (CDT)
 * That is fine with me. "LAME" has become so widespread around here that it would be a shame to not let others use it too. DE used to be GWiki also, it's something I can do to help him. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 11:35, 16 September 2007 (CDT)

Opposite to this
Template for overpowered skills should be Needs Effective Reduction to Firepower (NERF) Morzan  20:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Yay a good name expansion for the idea I had up top! --Gimmethegepgun 20:54, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I'd vote for Needs Effective Reduction of Fubarness --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (s)talkpage 20:54, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Instead of just skills expand it more --[[Image:Feardrake Sig.jpg|19px]] Feardrake. 20:55, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Viper, Fubar is an acronim in itself though. RT | Talk - The The Whacking editor 21:04, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Either: Fucked Up Beyond all Repairs, Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition, Fucked Up But Actually Relaxed. Pick one :P --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (s)talkpage 21:07, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I believe the "correct" term for use in that is "Fouled" :P --Gimmethegepgun 21:08, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * IK what it means (DSC listener) RT | Talk - The Whacking editor 21:10, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks to User:Shadowcrest, this has finally been made. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 22:50, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Template
Hey, i was told to turn to you, because i wanted to copy the template. But i dont just want to copy it, i want to change the text. I changed the text, as you can see here: User:Arnout aka The Emperors Angel. I hope I will be allowed to use it, but if you don't like it, it will be removed of course. In the case I can use it, thanks!Arnout aka The Emperors Angel 15:46, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
