Your User Page
Sorry if im doing this wrong, im new as of about 30 minutes ago. I was looking at your main page, of characters, and was wondering on how I can get a template or something to help make it look very similar to how you have it set-up. If I could get your help, id appreciate it. X Jstn X 16:56, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The simplest way is to just copy my page, then modify it however you want. One thing to look out for is wherever you see double curly braces around something, like , that's calling a template.  If it's calling a template in my userspace, like  , you'll need to change it to your userspace instead.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 18:06, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for updating the skill costs

 * Skill points are used to buy skills from skill trainers. Each skill costs one skill point and a certain amount of money. The first skill purchased costs 50, and the price increases gradually up to a cap of 1 on the 20th skill.

I've read four different game guide explanation of the costs and they are all horribly confusing. This is the first one I've read that makes a simple thing read simply. Nice job.

Also, thanks for the other re-wording (esp. since you fixed the #s; I could only copy what was there before). Thanks! --Tennessee Ernie Ford 23:22, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

ohai (Sysop question)
Hi there :)

For the last while I've been trying to learn more about this site and was wondering something. Would you be able to try to help me grasp the level of understanding of coding Sysops are required to have?

I'll understand if you can't be bothered or don't have the time, just thought you'd be the best one to ask. --> Suicidal Tendencie 12:58, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Hiya, help?
Hey ishmael, since you're a [PRO]grammer, I ask you: we have some problems over at Template:Armor art gallery trying to implement the "without helmet" thing. I tried my best, but there's a really bitchy issue with the line-breaks. Can you look at my revisions and try to retrace and see what I did there? Before 10th August it was almost right but with that line-break issue I tinkered around for over an hour, just to split the images up in the end. However Kali doesn't like it, so maybe you find a way to fix it? -- Taki Fujiko  04:29, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what the reason was for the other edits on the page, but you broke the Clipping parameter at some point (you changed it to display for some reason), and the changes you made to the "Profile" text aren't working.  To make this easy, I'm going to roll back all your changes to un-break both of those, then add back only the "nohelmet" stuff, then I'll try to see what's wrong.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 04:56, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, and now I think I see the problem - you were adding two new table cells outside of the table you wanted them in. Of course that's going to look goofy.  I'll have it fixed in a jiffy.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 04:59, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Transmog Tonic
Actually, I've seen it too. Right after using the tonic, sometimes (but not always) your character will do one /clap. There's also something similar in the Costume Brawl. When entering the outpost or battle, your character will perform one emote over and over (different for each profession and gender) until you move for the first time. I think it has something to do with humanoid disguises in general. You never notice it with other tonics because, well, they have no emotes. --Macros 15:11, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Come to think of it, the emote Livia does in the Costume Brawl is /clap, too... suspicious. --Macros 15:17, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hm. Like I said in the summary, I've never noticed it myself.  I'll watch more closely today - I'm expecting the next quest to become available, and we'll probably have to use tonics to enter the UW again, so I'll have plenty of chances to see it.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:27, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I just saw it on one of my wife's characters. Seems to be pretty rare, though.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 16:55, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

 * As I said in the summary, that was my intent. Either repeat the single Skeleton capture 3x, or use a solo farm to get 3 at once.  I had actually written that before I knew it was repeatable, thus I couldn't have intended that to be relevant for completing the quest more than once.

Glovebox
User_talk:RoseOfKali/Mesmer_gloves: can I take you up on that template offer? :) I've gotten around to taking a bunch of the missing screens, working on formatting them now and will upload them as they're ready. RoseOfKali 15:30, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Will do. Someone will have to create a "No Image Available" for gloves, my image manipulation skills aren't good enough for that.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:59, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Since this is being templated now, I standardized the image names to match the existing conventions. The changes I made were "armor" &rarr; "Armor" and "gloves dyed" &rarr; "dyed gloves".  I moved all existing images that I could find, including the ones you just uploaded.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 17:42, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

 * We changed it for articles but left it on the images, since there would've been a whole fudge-ton (prolly close to 1,000) images to re-upload. Now that we can simply move images it wouldn't be nearly as annoying to do, but there isn't really a need for it.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 21:00, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * Understood. TY. :) RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 21:41, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

RoF stubby
The reason it was still a stub was because technically it's a stub since there's no NF trainer listed. It's better in that respect than a few other skills, though, because it IS actually possible to figure out where it is (and inevitably find out it's Kamadan probably anyway :P ) by having a Prophecies character get monk primary or secondary and not do the Protection Prayers quest, then go to Kamadan. There's a few that ARE physically impossible to get though, should be in the Category:Need Factions Skill Trainer or Category:Need Nightfall Skill Trainer --Gimmethegepgun 01:49, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, right, I keep forgetting about those. I've always thought that they shouldn't be called stubs, though, as they are actually nearly complete articles (a stub is an article with very minimal content that needs to be expanded).  This is more of a "needs research" situation.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 02:03, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree. For simplicity, especially since essentially every skill, if not every skill, is beyond a stub state, we should just change the text of to say it needs research or something --Gimmethegepgun 02:11, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * Makes sense, imo. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 02:13, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Wondering if you can do some bot magic.
So you know how for like four years we've been reverting people who add Ruby and Sapphire to creature drop pages because every creature in the game has a chance of dropping them? Well apparently, they don't. See here.

So I was wondering if you could whip up a script that would give us a list of every article that's got Ruby (Rubies) or Sapphire in the edit summaries somewhere, just as a starting point for adding them in. 20:44, November 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Interesting. Well, there goes that bit of conventional wisdom, *POOF* =O
 * Wouldn't it be better to use GWW:Category:Drops sapphire and GWW:Category:Drops ruby as starting points? It seems like they've been documenting this for a while already, so those are probably pretty complete.  I don't know how much we'd really want to trust the edit histories here in any case, given how likely it is that at least a few people would've added sapphire/ruby to random monsters just to be silly.  But if you insist, I'll see what I can do - Mendel's better at dealing with the wiki dumps, although I haven't seen him being very active lately.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 21:19, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think that since no one's gonna go and look at a specific monster page in order to figure out if it drops Rubies/Sapphires, we should just make a list of what CAN drop it in the respective pages. Even though it's not even "most", it would still be the most expansive category in GW history, so it wouldn't do much good for finding something anyway. Just rob them of the list from the categories and put it into a list that's actually helpful :P --Gimmethegepgun 00:25, November 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose those are both better ideas than mine, I just wanted to do something special and hi-tech. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 01:09, November 18, 2009 (UTC)


 * @Gimme: True, but who's going to look at a specific monster to see if it drops, say, linen? Yet we still list that, and all other crafting materials, on individual monster pages, so I don't see why we shouldn't list rubies/sapphires.  As far as being "the most expansive category in GW history," I actually looked at the history of both the ruby and sapphire articles to see what people had listed in the past (before we replaced the list with an "everything can drop this" note).  With only a couple exceptions, everything that had been listed is now listed in GWW's drop categories.  I'm starting to realize that these gems aren't nearly as widespread as everyone thought they were.
 * @Felix: *patpat*, 's okay. I would've started working on that immediately if it weren't for the strong likelihood of false positives.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:42, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

 * No problem. Incidentally, I can program in C++, which I know isn't too different form C#, and I would love to dig deeper into gw.exe to figure stuff out.  I actually had the idea a few years ago to try and work up a chat logging program for GW (mostly for my wife, who has (at last count) 17 folders full of screenshots logging all of her RP sessions), but never got anywhere with it.  So if you're still recruiting for the project, I'd love to help.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 03:20, November 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * Sure. Incidentally, I lost my original code that I was working with when I lost a HDD.  I only remembered it when that prick put something up.  Maybe we can do it in C++, like a portable Qt frontend for server settings and whatnot.  Considering Qt comes out-of-the-box with its own networking libraries, which I have yet to dig into, our dependence on external libraries and whatnot should be nil...which is good, because Qt does not make importing external libraries easy, the only real flaw I've found with it.

 * Ah, but I am too quick for your humiliation! &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:39, November 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Humility != humiliation. You should know this. I now reserve the right to lol at you at a later time regardless of circumstance --Gimmethegepgun 01:42, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Show/Hide boxes
To use S/H boxes on a wiki, do you need some specific extension, a line of code somewhere (I presume the latter at least, since I saw div classes)? Asking for a totally unrelated wiki :P --- -- (contribs)  &emsp;(talk)  17:52, December 7, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a combination of CSS and Javascript. The specific implementation we use is NavFrame, but apparently it's been replaced with collapsible tables.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 18:01, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * The major difference is that div boxes aren't tables, but rather floating boxes, right? --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  18:22, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * Basically, yes. Divs are much more flexible than tables, which is why the current web design trend is to avoid tables whenever possible, only using them when necessary to display tabular data.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 19:04, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, and the wiki HTML coding has made me adopt this statement: "When in doubt, use a div" --Gimmethegepgun 19:08, December 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * Okies, thank you both. That's all for now ;) --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  19:52, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Lose your Head + Wandering Mind

Anything to note when you're adding skills never seen / confirmed to be used? You're the master of it, iirc A F K  When  Needed  19:49, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

really?
I thought they were relics from copy / pasted Official Wiki pages. Because, they've the notes on so many pages if we did note the attributes surely we'd have them on many more pages? :S A F K  When  <font color="SteelBlue">Needed  21:23, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * They're more common on Prophecies monsters, especially Soul Reaping for necros, but yeah, we list them when we know them. &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 21:26, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism
Does your wife know?--Łô√ë <font color="Black">îğá†ħŕášħ is hosting a Card Creation Contest! 02:55, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I showed her and she laughed at it. :D &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 03:00, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * It was quite amusing. Very tempting to spam the fake Dr ishmael with "neener neener neener!" But I shall refrain. ;)  Jink  05:51, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Wait, when the vandal said fag, did he mean gay fag or the South Park "Harley rider" fag? Honestly not sure which one would be more detrimental to the Chicken King's relationship, what do you think Jink? haha that rhymed --Gimmethegepgun 06:18, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

 * That's Arkansas, tyvm. :P &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 14:59, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Or perhaps the poor user was implying that Ishy was one stick out of a bundle. Jink  15:49, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * And what's *that* supposed to imply, eh? >.> &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 15:57, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sometimes I just hate the interwebz. IRL we'd be able to tell if Ishy was bleeding sarcasm or not, but we just don't know now :( --Gimmethegepgun 18:29, December 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, we know now (check the edit summary) --Gimmethegepgun 05:13, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

 * BTW, when I said Kansas, I meant the IP. Did a WHOIS on him, came up with KS, meaning, proxy or similar aside, he's from at least the Kansas area --Gimmethegepgun 19:10, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

Botblock
Just a random thought I felt was somewhat fitting here; It's annoying that RC doesn't show every block by default.

I only saw you blocked Angelus because I switched S/H Bots. (p.s. Open question a few topics up) --- -- (contribs)  &emsp;(talk)  15:54, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oops, didn't think about that. I would've switched back for the block if I'd known.  And what open question are you referring to?  Bot ishmael 18:40, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see it, not related to bots/blocks/RC at all. &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 18:57, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
