WikiStress
I'm not a huge fan of gimmicky stuff on User Pages, but then that's just me. I don't really care an enormous amount about how cool 15k armor looks compared to Drok's Armour, to me the stats are the same I couldn't care one way or the other how it looks, so User Pages with 15k armour wearing chartacter pics are wasted on me. I'm not even that keen on all those boxes which seem to be gaining popularity here. I can just say that; I'm Australian and I speak and write in English (Commonwealth English), see more informative and no box required! However I've uploaded some WikiStress pics because I think they're useful. People often get annoyed or whatever and it's very difficult to read emotion across written text. I briefly toyed with the idea of uploading some emoticons but that doesn't seem to be the wiki way, it's more of a forum thing. So I went with this, if nobody else uses it that's fine but at least people can find out how I'm travelling!

Current Status:
 * Must be more stressed, just snapped at somebody for no reason while writing this article. :( 08:34, 7 May 2006 (CDT)

Past points:
 * A little stressed, I find that I write pretty well, when a point isn't being made very clearly I can generally make an edit to sort it out. However I seem to act like an idiot on talk pages, this annoys me, I should aim to do something about it. 09:36, 1 May 2006 (CDT)

Help
Ok here's some helpful hints to anyone new to the GuildWiki (perhaps some older members might find this stuff helpful too)

General
 * 1) For those that are curious, Gravewit owns the site and I suppose you could call Nunix his right hand man. You can look up the rest of the admins here.
 * 2) http://www.gamewikis.org/blog/ is used to discuss some GuildWiki aspects.
 * 3) User questions can is used as a Question/Answer forum.
 * 4) Try to be nice to the other members here, you won't agree with everything everyone says but try to argue a point objectively without making it personal.
 * Category:Votes shows any issues currently being voted upon by the GuildWiki community

Editing Help
 * 1) Avoid making edits late at night, you'll often read them the next day and realise they're pretty ordinary. Despite this being rule number one, I break it quite frequently. ^ ^
 * 2) Read this if you haven't already, Lunarbunny's Grammar Guide!
 * 3) The editing help page is quite useful (a link to it appears each time you go to edit a page). How_to_help is also a good starting place.
 * 4) Don't post the market price of an item, we don't do that here. The merchant's price is ok but not what people are trading an item for.
 * 5) Create an account, it's easier to keep track of your edits, allows people to discuss things with you and gives your edits more authority.
 * 6) Don't write questions on an article, use it's talk page to ask questions related to the article.
 * 7) If you upload an image, don't use the BMP format, use GIF, PNG or JPEG but don't reduce the quality on JPEGs too much.
 * 8) You can and often should add pages you edit to your watchlist (use the Watch tab up the top).
 * 9) Sign your Talk page edits with ~, don't sign your article edits though!
 * 10) We only capitalise the first word of articles, unless it's a proper noun. E.g. Purple item has a lowercase "i" but Titan Quest has both the "T" and "Q" capitalised.
 * 11) You can create test pages off your user page, E.g. User:Xasxas256/Secondary Profession Guide or you can use the Sandbox

Curios
My bow type flow chart can be used by anyone to find out which of the standard 5 bow types a bow is.

I'm breaking editing rule number one whilest writing this so please head over to my Talk page to make any suggestions!
