Greetings, number 5 in the Top users panel! If you're not the best person here to talk about Semantic MediaWiki, please tell me who is. Your wiki is listed as using some SMW functions. We on Genealogy are just starting. Is there anyone here with tips to pass on?

Dousing Dhaos at ACEN
Brian and I were wandering booths in the dealer's room, and we came across this one with a couple REALLY nice 1/8 scale Tales of Phantasia figurines. There were 3 Mints and 1 Arche. I stared at them for a while, and then turned to Brian and said "Hey Brian. Between the two of them, which would you rather have on your desk? Mint has that air of quiet elegance, but I bet Arche-" Then he told me to shut up and ran away. I bought the Arche. 23:10, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

 * I refuse to make an IGN using or resembling "Entropy", for three reasons: 1) Some random shitter might recognize me. 2) I can't think of any good ways to use it in a name. 3) I already made Little Vili anyway, and I like my PvP slot.

 * Yes, that is why my mule never leaves the guild hall. I've been thinking about getting him to level 20 or maybe even PvP-ready, but...eh, maybe I'll just play in asian districts or something. Entropy [[Image:Entropy Sig 2.jpg]] (C) 19:40, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Or you could just tell people they got the wrong person and that you've never been to the wiki. :P My encounters usually don't go past "Hey, I've seen you on the wiki!" "Cool. :D" the end... And I'm actually playing my other characters more than my main now, trying to get them to beat campaigns and learn some good skills.

 * I was most recently recognized in Etnaran Keys outpost and during a Fort Aspenwood battle. Of course, it helps that my IGN is Felix Omni, and Rose's is Rose Of Kali. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 02:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * More people have realized my IGN is a reference to the Tales series than people that have recognized me from the wiki =/ Cress Arvein [[Image:Cress sig.JPG]] 17:54, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * When I'm on my PvP slots, those usually have strange names which no one would connect to me; however, I do roll the same names sometimes, so perhaps some people would remember. I do play a lot of AB with my usual PvE characters, but I've yet to be recognized or remembered there...which is, in some ways, a good thing.

 * Last I heard, Gigathrash just fumbled up the time zone conversions and scheduled something no one (including them) could conveniently attend. I assume they've returned to their abacus and sextant and are merely waiting for the stars to align properly again before re-setting a date/time. At this juncture I am led to suspect that your network of spies and informants has failed you, and a disciplinary execution is recommended to instill proper motivation in their future efforts.

Grammar
"someone had told Salad and me" is of course correct. "Someone" is the subject, "had told" is the predicate, and "Salad and me" is the object, so you need to use objective case. -- ◄mendel► 10:56, 21 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Damn, you beat me to it!--[[Image:El Nazgir sig.png|Talkpage]]<font color="Green">El_Nazgir 11:10, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * "Salad and me" are the objects. :P A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 11:15, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 'fraid not AFK, that's a use/mention confusion. "Salad and me" is the phrase 'x', the phrase 'x' is the object. Since it's only one phrase 'is' is correct, not 'are'. -<font color=#555>Ezekiel <font color=#AAA> [Talk]  11:23, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually it was an excuse for me to sneak in and join the convo :( A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 11:34, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Ezekiel is right, because your use of "are" indicates that you hold "Salad and me" as the subjects of your sentence, and then you have to write Salad and I are the objects of this sentence, since, no longer being objects, but subjects, objective case can no longer be used for "Salad and me". :-P -- ◄mendel► 12:04, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

(Reset indent) I prefer to rephrase the sentence so the me vs I issue doesn't come up. Why? Because at least 20% of people will worry the grammar to death, distracting them from whatever point you were trying to make. e.g. Salad &amp; I would have preferred to have been warned before we vowed to hit, People Know Me. &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 23:40, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Goodbye
My first edit in weeks. How ironic that I am talking about someone else's farewell.

I don’t know why I am up right now and why I’m on a wiki I haven’t edited in weeks, but I’m here now and decided to write this after seeing your userpage.

Entropy, your opinions on Guild Wars are basically the same as mine. Guild Wars isn’t fun anymore. Even though you started with Proph and I started with Factions, the grind that was introduced with the piece of shit called EotN was just ridiculous and unneeded, and the game just spiraled downhill from there. Also, ArenaNet’s constant addition of overpowered skills to the game is just ridiculous (though they did do some fixes, I have to credit them with that.) And know, this stupid latency shit, it took me almost 10 minutes just to get out of an outpost. I hadn’t played in a week and I was amazed to see what has happened to this game. I’m also looking at my userpage and all the games I have listed there are not completed: just like you, I’m missing out on all these due to Guild Wars. Now it is time to move on I guess, no sense staying with the dying game. (which I should have realized long ago.)

Also, unlike some Guild Wars players, I respect World of Warcraft and if you want to go off and play that, have fun! I played that game for 2 years and it’s still a great game despite some of its flaws. Even if you don't, enjoy your life as you set your own way.

In the end, Entropy, goodbye, even if I don’t see you around, I’ll miss you. I’ll end this on a classic Earthbound quote, which just seems fitting here:

I wish you luck...

P.S.: You can give me sysop status at GW2W if you want, I don’t know if I will buy Guild Wars 2, but I guess I’ll find out later.

 * Have a lot of fun! I agree with your guildwars points, thus why I stopped playing for a year (I'm back, playing casually, but not really liking it as much as I originally did). I also don't hate WoW, it's a respectable game. See you around on the interwebs. [[File:Thoughtful's RT sig test.jpg]]<font color="Black">Talk  14:58, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

 * You leave this game and go back to an inferior one? ...  If you're looking for something that can keep you occupied for a while, take up Ultima Online, srsly.  Sure, it looks old, and is probably the oldest surviving MMORPG to this day.  However, it is the only one, aside from Guild Wars, I still have any vested interest in, and I've been playing it since it came out some 11-12 years ago (in some capacity, mostly freeshards because I have no money).  Shit, if you come over to Demise, we could hang out and beat shit up with clubs.  You could be a member of Sun Wu!  That and there's more dragons in UO.  Hear that?  Motherfucking dragons.  That you get to kill more than one of at any given time.  That and you can summon swarms of bees.  Swarms.  Of.  Bees.  That kill things like crazy.

I thank everyone for their kind words, especially Cress. :o Money has very little to do with anything; I'd be more than happy to pony up for ANet if that would help make a funner game, but they really have to get their priorities straight first. A laggy game is an ugly game, even downright unplayable. It doesn't matter how many Zaishen Menageries you add to the game if no one can enjoy them. Compare that to WoW. They churn out new content much faster than ArenaNet does. They listen to concerns from fairly competent people in the playerbase and make changes based on that. (For example, the inventory system in WoW uses "bags" like Guild Wars...but you can't usually just buy them. A certain race had certain quest rewards which very quickly rewarded them with bag(s), giving an unfair and unwarranted advantage over the others. So, Blizzard compensated by adding bags to the loot tables of common monsters.) And you know, they actually add things to the game that "everyone" can enjoy right away without paying up. The only significant free content that Guild Wars has EVER been given was Sorrow's Furnace, and that was years ago. The Menagerie is a feature, not content. Thusly, even though one (eventually) ends up paying more for World of Warcraft, your money is actually being put to good use, and I'd dare to say you get as much if not more "bang for the buck" from Blizzard. The best part is that the servers are not shit, because Blizzard actually takes care of them. WoW goes down for scheduled maintenance every Tuesday afternoon or so. I'd gladly give up one day (a school/work day, at that!) of any game to have it running flawlessly the other six. Felix, don't lie like a rug. I know you would never do that...or you wouldn't last, in any case. RH, I don't have anything against old games (hell, I play text-based adventures still!), but I'm just not interested in Ultima. (Oblivion on the other hand, is rather fun...but...I don't have any friends who play.) Yes, I saw your "recruiting" ad for it when you posted a long time ago. And you know, truth be told, I do not think I would enjoy your company nor you mine if you are at all similar in-game as you are on the wiki. Dragons are overrated cliches anyway. But thank you for the offer. Entropy (C) 04:41, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I love grindfests. I might play Aion. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 04:50, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Aion looks like a hybrid of WoW and Guild Wars, both in terms of graphics and in mechanics/"style". But it also costs exactly as much as WoW, without any discount package plans (well, not yet anyway). Hmm.....a new game that I don't have any clue whether I'd like, and don't know anyone who will definitely play it; or an older game which I know I thoroughly enjoy, and which I already know several players. That $15/month isn't chump change when you're unemployed and paying off school too. Entropy [[Image:Entropy Sig 2.jpg]] (C) 05:39, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * It looks like you really mean it this time. I tend to stay away from personal matters on the wiki (including arguments and drama), but I guess I better say goodbye before I lose my chance to. So... goodbye Entropy, I never even got a chance to AB with you D: --Macros 06:20, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Is the map still Grenz? D: We wouldn't be missing much anyway -.- Entropy [[Image:Entropy Sig 2.jpg]] (C) 06:30, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Aion looks like it's trying to way too hard to be a proverbial WoW-clone. The obvious differences of no PvE servers and more grinding aren't exactly points in its favor.  People say flying is a big deal, but no one I've asked could give any reasons as to why.  I once started a thread on a forum with a number of Aion fans asking what the point of the game is, and why someone would play Aion instead of some other game.  Mostly I got a bunch of vague drivel like, "It tries to take the best features from previous games and combine them into a single game."  Of course, nearly every game ever made tries to do that to a large degree.  Apart from being published by NCsoft, I don't see any similarities between Aion and Guild Wars apart from things common to most of the genre.
 * As for WoW, there are some legitimate reasons to like the game. It's great for players who have lots of free time and no skill and thus want only the amount of free time to matter.  (Actually, lots of MMORPGs try to do that, but WoW is better at it than most.)  But you're citing Blizzard's servers as a point in WoW's favor?  Seriously?  Servers that, at any moment could (and often do) completely lock up for mintues at a time and then crash entirely?  Servers that can't simply be rebooted, but take Blizzard an hour to acknowledge that there is a problem and then several more to bring the servers back online--and not necessarily in proper working order when it finally does happen?  Servers that have persistent instability issues for months on end?  WoW's servers are far worse than those of any other game I've ever seen except for Chain of Command, which was made by a company that went out of business at the turn of the millennium, in part because their servers were so horrible.  Citing server stability as a point in WoW's favor is like saying you like Maple Story because it doesn't make you grind for levels, or Vanguard for its low system requirements.
 * WoW does have a lot of content, but it's important to remember that at any given time, the overwhelming majority of it is inaccessible to you. If you're level 45, you could technically go kill mobs in a level 20 zone, or go get slaughtered by mobs in a level 60 zone, but there are only a handful of places that you can reasonably go.  Once you hit the level cap, it's still the same situation, but the reasons for this merely change from level to gear.  Furthermore, a lot of the content isn't merely unavailable right this moment, but never will be available.  Good luck trying to convince 39 other level 60 players to go raid Molten Core rather than moving on to higher levels.  Realistically, a character created today will never get to play anything outside of Wrath of the Lich King with anything remotely resembling the original experience.  Quizzical 06:52, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I'm pretty sure you've just been describing ANet since the April update and their insistence on blaming crappy performance on people's ISPs.
 * I don't care what level or gear restrictions there are, not least of which because I won't be hitting those for a looooooooooooooong time. At any given point in time, from my perspective, a WoW character has access to infinitely more content than a level 20 UAX Guild Wars account with enough slots for every profession and some left over for PvP. As someone from GWW once said, "I have often been so bored with Guild Wars that I have stopped playing and simply sat down and stared at a wall."
 * I don't mind "grind" if it is in even the slightest way fun or meaningful. I've gone out of my way to farm "skill usage points" and maximize every tech tree in games with that kind of structure. At some times I was literally prolonging a battle for hours and hours, pressing the same commands over and over again, for no other reason than farming skill points. And you know, in the end, I was proud of my accomplishment.
 * Some players spend all day in WoW just fishing. They may not even be grinding for their fishing skill, they just enjoy it. In Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time, they had fishing holes. Do you know how long I spent there? Not hours. Not days. Weeks. Just fishing. It may have been the same repetitive activity over and over again, but I enjoyed it so much that I didn't mind. At pretty much any level in WoW, you can do stuff like that.
 * There are these things called "friends". I don't know if you "puggged" and/or played WoW solo... but, suffice it to say that I know some people who could probably be convinced to help me out at any stage of the game. And if they couldn't, they know people who could. I honestly don't see it being a problem, after coming from the rather dismal position of Guild Wars PUGs. Entropy [[Image:Entropy Sig 2.jpg]] (C) 07:18, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Has Guild Wars gone completely kaput so that you couldn't even log on for hours at a time since the April update? That's a regular occurrence in WoW.  That isn't merely intermittent lag spikes or laggy enough to be unplayable--though both of those afflict WoW more than Guild Wars.  I guess you could argue that if one WoW server is down, you can go play on another--though you'll have to start a brand new character for it.  Don't look at the official list of which servers are up and down as a guide to the frequency of this, as if a server crashes and comes back up an hour later, the official list will probably show it as having been up continuously that whole time.
 * I think the comparison you're making on amount of content is the amount of content that you personally haven't done yet. That is certainly an important consideration, and a reason why someone will wish to play game A rather than game B at a given time even if he believes that game B is, on the whole, superior to game A.  It isn't really the right measure for abstractly talking about how much content a game has, though.
 * I did some solo content in WoW and a lot of pugging. Grouping with guildies generally isn't viable because there won't be enough of them on at reasonable level/gear and interested in doing what you want.  Some guilds will try to make a point of grouping together, and have a level 50 group with a level 20, but WoW game mechanics make it so that being more than a few levels below mobs makes you useless, and more than a few levels above them makes it trivial.  A few levels makes a much bigger difference in WoW than in Guild Wars, which is why even the highest raid bosses are never more than 3 levels above the level cap.  I guess some would argue that grouping with guildies is viable if you schedule your lives around the game to be able to group (or raid) together, but I consider any "content" that requires scheduling your life around a computer game to not be viable.  Quizzical 08:03, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Unless you had to spend weeks fishing in those Zelda games to move on to later, that wasn't grinding. Grinding is when you absolutely must do something extremely repetitive in order to move on.  WoW doesn't have grinding until you hit the level cap, at which point it abruptly becomes a very different game.  Aion apparently takes long enough to get to the level cap that powerleveling services don't yet post prices of how much they'll charge to get you there.  Quizzical 08:11, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * "I do not think I would enjoy your company nor you mine if you are at all similar in-game as you are on the wiki." That's why there's more people than just me on Demise.  Also, I'm taken a bit aback.  I'm almost offended.  [edit]Care to elaborate?  I'm...intrigued.[/edit]  [[Image:RHSig.jpg]] talk 16:36, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't think WoW has a mentoring system (like there is in place in EQ2). I've heard that the high-end raiding is a totally different game to the PvE at the start. I havn't had lag spikes in GW, ut I can tell you from my EQ experence that a game based on different servers is annoying if you have any friends who want to play, (say you're playing on permafrost, you tell your friend about the game, and they join everfrost, not knowing about servers, then one of you has to change servers, with a new character.

WoW is easy to solo (you can go through the whole leveling curve withought joining a group). It's a pity there isn't a mentoring system, otherwise you can still be challanged by low-level areas at higher levels. Also, back when I was playing GW regularly, I spent more time speaking to Warwick via guild chat than actually playing the game, I got into a zone and was completely uninspired to do anything, I could have done loads of things, but I'd rather have logged off. When that happened, I looked around for my options. Good luck + have fun! <font color="Black">Talk  17:06, 25 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Sorry to see you leaving, and so soon after I got back - however I can say I do agree with you that GWs is a dying game, and has been ever since the release of GW:EN and ANet has been less than caring with provision of new content and more actual, fun and meaningful reasons to play rather than just getting another useless time-wasting title. I come back after about one year to see the 4th year anniversary additions which are nothing much more than ploys to extract money from the existing playerbase without providing any new, meaningful content unlike previous real campaigns. This wonderfully 'delightful' way of going about business doesn't inspire me to buy GW2 - seems like we only get exceptional boredom to tide us over until the release of GW2 and obligatory grind in the form of ZQuests for bags which should really have been sold at merchants. However, I do find that the game mechanics and level of skill required to progress through higher level content nice and refreshing in comparison to the miscellaneous other grindy MMOs I've played. I'm not surprised that you're experiencing lag problems but I haven't a clue why yours are so severe - I've seen my guildmates in the US have massive lag issues while I experience none (Australia here) yet I see nobody else getting lag issues sometimes when I infrequently 007, so there may be some truth to ANet saying the lag issue is to do with your ISP. I see also that the community here has been slowly atrophying - sometimes I see out of date content that should have been corrected but isn't. Jennalee 18:10, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
