Builds
take a look at style and formatting/Builds, they even have a template you can copy out. --Honorable Sarah 09:03, 11 August 2006 (CDT)

Yay I'm slowly coming out of my wiki ignorance, ty.Onlyashadow 09:05, 11 August 2006 (CDT)

Well that was relativly easy an pain free...I think I'll post some more of my builds ^_^-Onlyashadow 09:32, 11 August 2006 (CDT)
 * ya, but wait till skuld gets his voting hammer out. please try to test some builds while your at it category:untested builds is full to overflowing, and we need three votes either way to move them. --Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 09:51, 11 August 2006 (CDT)

'Sins
Hullo! I've had a go at sorting out the Assassin page. Could you take a look for me? Thanks. JP 13:35, 14 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Looks fine to me, gj-Onlyashadow 14:39, 14 August 2006 (CDT)

I think I have a problem
Over the past week I've found myself clicking the "recent changes" button over and over again waiting for something to pop up...Onlyashadow 09:33, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Well won't it be exciting when you see the yellow "You have new messages" box? :P --Xasxas256 09:35, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * If you need something to do, look at my list of things to do. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 09:44, 15 August 2006 (CDT)
 * just wait till you figure out that you can click the timestamp in recent changes and see all the changes since the last time you loaded the page. i've got 1500 edits in the two weeks since i learned that, and 500 in the 4 months before. i'm not addicted, i can quit any time... as soon as the PvP builds are sorted, and the IAS skills updated. --Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 10:20, 15 August 2006 (CDT)

Gem, you have my sympathies GL with the list. I think I'll stick to the builds area...Onlyashadow 10:29, 15 August 2006 (CDT)

Categories
I don't normally edit peoples user pages but I changed the two category entries as user pages should not normally be in categories. --Xasxas256 18:22, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

The sick person who bolded the "i"...
...is Pansola. :) The reason is to distinguish "Elonia" from "Elona" that the issue in that section is about whether or not Elonia and Elona are the same thing. i.e. Whether the "i" means something. --Karlos 08:55, 24 August 2006 (CDT)

Omg, I thought some sadistic vandal did that...my bad ^_^-Onlyashadow 09:05, 24 August 2006 (CDT)

Isn't Elonia the new area coming in Nightfall? --I Follow The Blind 11:22, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

Talk:W/any Enraged Smasher
so what does "boo" mean? --Honorable Sarah 12:22, 24 August 2006 (CDT) See Booing.-Onlyashadow 12:32, 24 August 2006 (CDT)
 * ok, mr smartypants, why are you booing that build? and don't you dare say "because it deserves a boo". i expect a logical reason, mister.--Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 12:47, 25 August 2006 (CDT)

No IAS (Bad idea for a hammer), ONE useful attack, an addition useless attack, and no self heal. Low DPS with a hammer isn't FTW.-Onlyashadow 13:15, 25 August 2006 (CDT) Oh and it deserves a "boo"-Onlyashadow 13:16, 25 August 2006 (CDT)
 * see? was that so hard? now could you copy that in instead of "boo" so people know exactly what you don't like about the build? --Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 13:31, 25 August 2006 (CDT)

Oh I'll copy it, but "Boo" will remain as the head of my vote. Jeering FTW.-Onlyashadow 13:34, 25 August 2006 (CDT)

Now if you could ask the people who voted for that "build" why they like it, I'd be impressed if any of them had an answer.-Onlyashadow 13:37, 25 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Your response is requested here. Thanks. --Vortexsam 19:53, 2 October 2006 (CDT)

Ban
for reference, you can place Template:ban on a user page to request a ban against someone, but only admins can actually inact the block. see Special:log/block --Honorable Sarah 12:47, 25 August 2006 (CDT)

I need a hug
Anyone?

<script type="text/javascript" src="/wiki?title=User:Onlyashadow/monobook.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=

I'm not sure what that's supposed to do but what you should do is move your user page out of Category:Users/Language and into Category:Users/Language/en-N I might give you a hug then :P --Xasxas256 09:43, 14 September 2006 (CDT)


 * /Cheer! --Xasxas256 09:50, 14 September 2006 (CDT)

I demand a hug.-Onlyashadow 09:51, 14 September 2006 (CDT)


 * But you didn't add the right category. You can just add and that'll sort it out. Also is that AoC thing because I mentioned it somewhere!? --Xasxas256 09:53, 14 September 2006 (CDT)

AoC thing?-Onlyashadow 10:13, 14 September 2006 (CDT) Ok I'm correctly labeled, now hug me.-Onlyashadow 10:27, 14 September 2006 (CDT)


 * Age of Concent, I wrote about it somewhere. I'm not sure my arms would reach you are you in Australia? Can't I just give you a mould-friendly thumbs up!? :P --Xasxas256 22:56, 14 September 2006 (CDT)

Oh, no that was from my own research although if I had known you had put something up it would have saved me a bit of time. btw
 * d('-'d) That's how you give me a thumbs up.-Onlyashadow 08:06, 15 September 2006 (CDT)


 * Could u take a look at the new A/N Solid Interupter and the talk page? Maybe remove the old voting thingy and vote on the new one. Just tell your opinion. --I Follow The Blind 11:22, 21 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Oh and i almost forgot  d('-'d)


 * sure, I'll take a look in a couple mins.-Onlyashadow 11:23, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

A little help?
I can't see any updates to guildwiki, the latest change in "recent changes" is "Ahbri‎; 15:44 . . MRA (Talk | contribs) (scaled the image down (a bit))" sooo if anyone knows what's going on feel free to let me in on it.-Onlyashadow 11:22, 2 October 2006 (CDT)
 * What happens? Infinate load, error code? Try press f5 &mdash; Skuld 11:31, 2 October 2006 (CDT)

I think it's just recent changes and "my contrib" pages but for some reason they don't show anything new f5 isn't doing anything either :(-Onlyashadow 11:33, 2 October 2006 (CDT) nvm it's all the pages and f5 does work, my bad...although can I just refresh them all at once, maybe?-Onlyashadow 11:35, 2 October 2006 (CDT)

Tampering with votes
Talk:W/any_Enraged_Smasher

3 votes in unfavoured, by first time IPs, in the space of 6 minutes, which look to be proxies.

You were dumb enough to forget to log in as yourself again: here you posted with one of the socks you just used to give a vote.

Besides the obvious, you left a "gg" comment, i've seen these left all over talk pages by yourself.

I'm imposing a 1 week block, take some time to think about not trying to cheat again &mdash; Skuld 10:46, 3 October 2006 (CDT)
 * Again? What about here and here? -Savio 11:00, 3 October 2006 (CDT)


 * While I don't contribute to the builds section as a personal decision, this seems to reach beyond the realm of builds and turns again to the banning of IP randomizers. As, I myself, do not have time to do anything other than this little bit, no digging or starting a new discussion off this user's talk page, but on the surface it looks rather grim. It is disappointing to see an experienced contributor doing something like this. &mdash; Gares 11:21, 3 October 2006 (CDT)

/Crackneck Ahhh, much better. Time to get to play ^_^-Onlyashadow 10:54, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Gift of creation
Moved to: User:Onlyashadow/Saved builds to avoid deletion, whoever the original author you can go ahead and put that on your space if you want.-Onlyashadow 11:37, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Because I don't know which category this would fall under..
Lol, thanks for the compliment. That was a friend of mine who just randomly picked up an empty poptart box I had in my room (Yeah, I'm not exactly the cleanest guy in the world. Though I hate leaving food particles around.  Boxes and other containers that carry food are okay, as long as they don't leave any type of residue that will reek of Oberan the Reviled.) And muh pretteh kitteh just happened to be inside. She's so curious, you know.. And her name is Momo. :X And to answer your other question.. Perhaps..? o.o

Lmao I'm so sorry I'm posting this in here, but uh I'll let you mess around with it. Sorry!! X_X;--Xenethan 13:44, 10 October 2006 (CDT) Lol, wish I wasn't allergic to cats...they are so cute...
 * >_>
 * <_<

anyway! Xenethan, I assume you are talking about the build...so I'll just look after it till nightfall releases.-Onlyashadow 13:49, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Oh and one other thing. That I added to the other post on my discussion board and failed to produce it here in time before you responded (which you certainly responded quite fast.. o.o) Is.... Actually, what I meant by "I'm willing to take it a step further.." was if I could either become a part of the Guild Wiki Team or better yet, I'd like to become a part of A-Net and aid them to the best of my abilities. I believe I owe them that much at the very least.. But, friendship is something I lack, and I'd like to start with one with anyone. Since I move and I don't meet very many people, (mostly because I'm not a very outgoing kind of guy)I tend to become somewhat lonely. But, that's what I'm asking for by being apathetic and detached from society, right? If you want to speak with me on MSN (which is the only instant messaging program I use) my contact email is sauron_xenethan@hotmail.com.. God I'm so not used to this signing crap.. -_- --Xenethan 13:52, 10 October 2006 (CDT)
 * Everyone at guildwiki is part of the guildwiki team! d('-'d) /goteam *

I know how that whole "moving" thing can go, moved a bunch of times myself but yay internets keeping me in contact with old friends!-Onlyashadow 14:08, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Guildwiki problems?
Is anyone else having trouble viewing and editing pages? For some reason I can't even get most of the pages to show up w/o being on an IP anonymizer... very strange.
 * I took out the anonymiser's extra / for you. Yes the GuildWiki is having problems atm, we've had a pretty good run in terms of server stability in recent times up until now though. I guess nothing to do but sit tight and wait for Gravewit to fix it. --203.214.83.190 08:33, 12 October 2006 (CDT)

Struck out votes..
You asked Skuld to unstrike them, he said no, Fyren also supported his decision. Please do not just go and unstrike votes again. You just came off a ban. --Karlos 14:34, 12 October 2006 (CDT) Although I was unaware breaking "only revert once" policy was a bannable offense(maybe that should be put somewhere on the page) I have engaged in convorsation as per the policy to discuss the conflict and sort it out. And however pseudo-hostile your comment is, I appreciate your concern.-Onlyashadow 14:40, 12 October 2006 (CDT)
 * Note: I didn't ask him to unstrike, I simply asked "Why?".


 * Let me explain... Striking out votes is an "administrative" action. No average joe should go do it. As such, unstriking votes is also an administrative action. The fact that you agree or disagree with the striking is completely irrelevant. Only skuld or another admin can unstrike them. Striking them was taken as an administrative procedure.
 * And yes, breaking 1 RV, deliberately, knowingly and with no justification is a bannable offense. And your own track record is in consideration in such things. Yours being less than exemplary. --Karlos 15:00, 12 October 2006 (CDT)
 * For all of these rules that can get you banned esp. on voting, voting on builds, and other actions it is absolutly fascinating how none of them are written down or made public until, the "offender" is under the scrutiny of an administrator.../. Once again, aside from the near-hostile behavoir, I appreciate you(finally) alerting me to these rules and their grave consequences.-Onlyashadow 15:07, 12 October 2006 (CDT)
 * Nothing new about it. The only revert once policy {GW:1RV) was first documented in January of this year.  From the Main Page there is a link to GuildWiki:Policy, you can also view Category:Policy for all articles in that space.  Violating any policy is potentially a bannable offense, although it's at the admins discretion to determine the severity and to determine if its justified in the particular situation. (Karlos recently did an edit to spell it out, although violation of site policies should be self evident to be potentially bannable offence). --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:55, 12 October 2006 (CDT)
 * While breaking site policies shouldn't be done how about the rules that aren't policy or even written down? I think if you are going to take action as an admin against a user for breaking a rule, the rule should at least be an official rule...one that could be known to the user before he is being banned for it. Just seems rather idiotic to punish someone for something they didn't know was a punishable "offense".-Onlyashadow 15:17, 13 October 2006 (CDT)
 * Some level of common sense is expected on the part of the user. Disrupting or subverting the vote process (or any element of GuildWiki) should be self evident to be a violation.  Note also that GW:ADMIN states Administrators can ban users at will. This is usually done in cases of vandalism, and permanent bans are usually reserved for spambots. However, if an administrator feels it prudent, he may remove a user from the wiki for any reason, or no reason at all.  I have never seen an admin of this site to abuse this power.  Even if one day it is abused, admins have been known to lessen or remove bans of other admins in some cases when they disagree with the reasoning behind a ban.  --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:33, 13 October 2006 (CDT)
 * I "lol" at that policy.-Onlyashadow 09:48, 16 October 2006 (CDT)

Read the build again...
I removed your comment from Talk:W/E_Shocking_Flurry because no one is supposed to debate and argue votes in the rate a build section or that will make the section unreadable and probably break the numbering too.

I usually move the comment to a section in the talk page, but in this case I removed it because you already had that cynical response in the talk page to someone who complained that the build does not work. I would recommend though that you try and give them a better a response because as more and more of them say that, your build will likely end up unfavored despite your conviction that it's their low IQ that's making it not work. --Karlos 09:04, 18 October 2006 (CDT) I doubt it's low IQ, but since most warrior builds rely on a single strong hit to do most of their damage (evis, devastating hammer+fierce blow) I felt it was nessacary(sp escapes me) to add that note, I have put it out of the way of voting but so it is still noticable-Onlyashadow, Top 100 09:07, 18 October 2006 (CDT)
