Talk:Terror Shield

Looks like this item indeed is a fake. Quoting Gaile Gray: ''I am thinking the whole Terror Shield is very questionable. Our designer and I have both not heared of them. Maybe a "creative image work"?'' See here. --Eightyfour-onesevenfive 05:08, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Its very possible it is, the only reason I added it was because of [this video]. It looked pretty convincing to me.  We can always remove this artitle and all mention of the shield later if it does turn out to be fake. | Chuiu 13:31, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm confused. Gaile Gray's statement seemed to confirm that the shield is fake. But Isaiah Cartwright's statement implies it may be real. I added a note about the possible hoax to the article until we have a confirmation. --Fisherman's Friend 06:03, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
 * The first time Gaile was asked about the IDS, she said something like she thought it would go away after the holidays, but it sounded more like she had never heard of them before. The popular story is Izzy added the IDS to make people stop bothering him about their existence after the fake images or whatever from months ago.  Maybe he added a shield to go along with it.  --Fyren 17:22, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
 * It was confirmed a fake by Gaile it seems. You can read the topic here. I have to say though, they did a nice job faking it, heh. Sorry, but I'm too sleepy to edit it myself! -Talonz 04:49, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, I think Gaile's comment on page two of that topic settels the discussion. But I agree, that's a rather good fake. :) --Eightyfour-onesevenfive 15:22, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I know of a few people who could pull it off since the GW.dat file has been hacked its quite possible that somebody with that information could have created their own personal server and replaced a shield image thus creating a new shield. | Chuiu 20:49, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * No need for their own server, the textures and text are all client side, so they'd just have to hack those changes in the data file, load and take a few screenshots. Other people would just see it as a normal shield. --theeth 22:03, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer not to see the article deleted, people are liable to hear about it and then look it up on the GuildWiki, I think this article should just make it clear that it's a fake. --Xasxas256 22:07, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
