 * Don't use the new section function. It is weak. --Vipermagi 12:26, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
 * But when you use the new function, you show up on watchlists and in rc with the new header. If you edit the whole page, or the previous section you dont. Or could you put something in the summery when editing teh whole page? Arnout aka The Emperors Angel 16:48, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Summaries!

 * You just gotta edit the summary to reflect the new header, then. I might have used the New Section thing once, or clicked it and nigh immediately just edited the last section anyhow... Always worked for me. --Vipermagi 18:33, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

not-pre formatting
someone explain why a line break resulted in a &lt;pre> area... -- easily explained, there's another way to make an area look like this, and that works by leaving a space at the start of the line. (It doesn't work like &lt;pre> because Wikicode and everything is still being evaluated, but it looks like one.) In this case, the template you used ended in a line break (I've since changed it), and after that you put a space and a tag; and hence that space came to be at the start of new line of wikitext, and triggered this formatting. Had you put the tag on the next line, it'd have looked ok. --◄mendel► 07:12, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I knew this, I just didn't realize I'd left a space D: &mdash; Scythe   20:47, 7 Dec 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, we had a discussion someplace a few months back why templates shouldn't be coded like that, precisely because it can catch users that way. --◄mendel► 04:39, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

 * being dissatisfied with the (at the time) current drawn the wiki is moving at -- I think you ought to rephrase that, I don't understand what you mean. Do you mean the wiki is moving slowly? I would also remind you to follow Assume good faith rather than post unsupported suspicions in public places.


 * that's blasphemy - blasphemy is insulting gods, and while I am happy you think that highly of me, accusing Auron of that seems out of place. If you could make that statement less of a personal attack towards Auron, your god would smile on you. ;)

--◄mendel► 09:09, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * and I'd probably open an RfA as well as an arbcomm over it - I don't understand this one either - would you RfA me, RfR Emmett or RfA Auron? You and Showdowcrest have managed to stay out of each other's hair on this wiki so far, and I was hoping this state would continue. At this point, an arbcomm would have to examine your differences on other wikis as well, and I for one would not see it it as my GuildWiki bureaucrat duties to do that, though I'd be willing to participate in the first cross-wiki joint arbcomm ever if it came to that.
 * I actually meant drawl, it was a typo :(
 * as far as Auron and blasphemy, I consider blasphemy to be largely erroneous, not religious (though I am aware of the religious origin of the word).
 * I'd RfA Auron for banning you based on something that members of community say there is nothing wrong with. I've corrected various little grammatical errors and spellings to make the post more understandable.

Silent Surf Vanquish Count
Sorry, no, I did not get a screen shot at the time. I was just happy to get the vanquish completed. Chances are I'll be vanquishing that area again though, so I'll try to remember to get one then, if I get the same count.

Jokes gone so wrong... &mdash; Scythe   0:22, 26 Jan 2011 (UTC)

Primeval Armor Remnants
Afaik both is wrong. Those remnants only 'drop' directly into the inventory by chance, at the moment one of the Lords of Anguish or Mallyx himself is defeated (and thus a chest spawns). There is no guaranteed drop from any chest and there is no (additional) chance to get one when you open a reward chest. –aRTy 14:31, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The goal of a wiki is to make content as easy, accessible, and readable as possible. Using the term 'drop' implies that a player recieves the item, which, is what happens.  Saying a player receives one is not only longer, but slightly unwieldy, and not going to click in a reader's mind as quickly.  Lords of Anguish are not guaranteed to 'drop' one, but Mallyx is.  Or at least, I've never seen him not drop one, and he follows the same mechanics as Duncan. &mdash;  Scythe   16:45, 26 Jan 2011 (UTC)


 * Do you receive the armor immediately upon defeating Mallyx, or do you only receive it when you open the chest? We should make sure we cover that distinction correctly.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 17:45, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * You receive the armor the moment you kill Mallyx resp. the Lords of Anguish, so it's at the same moment the respective chest spawns. Opening the chest has nothing to do with it. Furthermore, neither Mallyx nor the Lords will cause the receipt of the remnant for sure, it's always by chance.
 * (Personal impression, though several discussions stated the same: Every player seems to get a few quite fast, something around 15 or so, and then rarely get any more. Among players who play DoA a very lot, it's rather uncommon if anyone in the party gets solely one in a fullrun.)
 * –aRTy 18:20, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I've never seen anyone not get a remnant upon mallyx's death, so I'm inclined to believe it's 100%, as it is with duncan. &mdash; Scythe   0:44, 27 Jan 2011 (UTC)
 * I did not get one several times (played a lot more than one year ago and did a few runs recently) and some friends experienced the same. In addition an IP criticized the corresponding annotation in the german wiki already in Dez. 2009. –aRTy 07:04, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Huh, dunno then. Coulda sworn it was guaranteed, but feel free to revert me. &mdash;  Scythe   20:16, 27 Jan 2011 (UTC)
 * Naw, it isn't guaranteed, though if you're new to DoA it will seem like an 100% drop rate for the first like 6 remnants, after which the drop rate drastically drops to like one every 20 runs.– User Balistic Pve sig.pngalistic 03:30, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with Balistic. It varies within DoA. 72.148.31.114 04:57, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

 * in general
 * Tell Jon to lay off the harassment. But fine, as long as a universal standard is set. &mdash;  Scythe   1:27, 14 Feb 2011 (UTC)
 * If I say his actions were douchy, I attack his actions. -- that may be, but you have not actually given a reasoning. The standard is to "Comment on content, not on the contributor", and your post is definitely not a rational response to the points Jon brought forward. You comment on the way he made him, you tell us your general opinion of them, but you do not further constructive discussion. There is no way to reply to your post because it contains nothing one can base a reply on. Are those standards ok on your debating team? Are you unaware that you can attack a person by casting his actions (or looks, taste etc.) in a negative light? This is called "personal" when you give no facts and no reason that warrant the attack in the given context. Whether Jon acted in a douchey fashion or not is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand; a fact that you should have been aware of especially since I mentioned it in my reply to Jon's post in question: This is about categories, not about Ariyen -- substitute Jon for Ariyen, and apply it to yourself.
 * If you want to have an argument with Jon about how douchey you think he is, take it to his talkpage; cite the passage you take objection to (at the very least, link to the edit); and provide an argument that supports your position that would pass muster on any public debate event you participated in. --◄mendel► 02:06, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * The points he raised:
 * WTF Ariyen??!?!!!!111!!!!1!!!!!1!11!!
 * No, Ariyen, we've done it this way.
 * Go away.
 * Stop editing.
 * restatement of TEF & Ish's key criterion.
 * how were these rational? I already posted on ish's wall about the brick fucking wall effect and the ensuing frustration and rage.  If he had read any of the relevant discussion he would have known this.  How are my points personal and his not? As I already said, keep a universal standard.  Attacking a person's way of delivery, or context of a point is the only way you can win LD debate unless you have pre-cited information blatantly stating their point is wrong.  What warrants the attack?  Harassment.
 * Also: you could scream bloody murder at Felix for doing [nearly] the same thing, but no. I smell a rat.  &mdash;  Scythe   2:35, 14 Feb 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, now I also recommend GW:SHOUT to you, as I'm not getting through to you. I asked you to use quotes; your list of "points he raised" does not actually reflect [ this edit] in any meaningful way. "How are my points personal and his not?" I already answered that one, look above (also, putting in the strawman doesn't help you). Thanks for putting your debating prowess into perspective for me. --◄mendel► 03:11, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Why am I involved now? [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png|link=User:Felix Omni]] 03:46, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Yah, my experience with the school debating system comes down to two points: 1.  Proving your opponent is an idiot, and 2.  Out infodumping the other person.  It's a bad, poorly constructed, and mean spirited system that hates people and is in no way representative of an actual discussion.  It's a contest, but this is a bad place to be discussing the failings of competition.--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]<font color="Black">îğá†ħŕášħ  04:08, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, in theory you'd get taught to do 1. with logic and 2. with (prior) research (and nowadays, smartphones), but apparently standards have been slipping. --◄mendel► 04:12, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Telling me to swap the names and apply it to myself doesn't make it equal treatment. Coming to me and saying "cut the npa, or you'll get banned" without going to jon and saying "cut the harassment, or you'll get banned" is both insulting, and either a repulsive administrative oversight, or a biased and/or subconscious decision.  Giga is fully correct, the response times given (~10s between rounds) allows for no processing of the information, and thus the more you can cram down their throat in the shortest time wins the contest.  But now we're getting off topic. &mdash;  Scythe   21:04, 14 Feb 2011 (UTC)


 * Saying "WTF, dude?" is not a personal attack or even harassment. It may be a rude way of saying, "I'm having trouble understanding your broken grammar," but it is not a personal attack.  You, on the other hand, said that Jon "set the bar higher" for "douchery," thereby calling Jon a douche, which is a personal attack.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 21:12, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Spelling it out again for you: "this is about categories, not about Jon". Jon made several points about the topic (which you ignore in your list), and he mixed in some personal sentiments, which he shouldn't have, but meh, it happens. That's why his edit rates as being a largely constructive edit; that's why I reminded him to not get personal, but didn't treat his post as a full-on attack.
 * Your post, on the other hand, is nothing but a comment on Jon and his manner of posting; it is not supported by any points or arguments by which to put it into proportion; it is completely misplaced on the CP talk. I don't mind you criticising Jon's posting style, but I also told you (look it up above) what my standards are for such criticism.
 * Because your post differs in these essential points from Jon's (in other words, it is nothing like his, except that both of you expressed a "wtf" moment), it gets treated differently. Jon's post had the primary purpose of discussing categories; yours had the primary purpose of discussing/attacking Jon. There is nothing one can reply to your post except to say "don't do that" because it contains nothing else.
 * Here's a warning I hope isn't warranted: please do not get the smart idea to troll us by starting to come up with prima facie points to disguise your attacks - we're not so dumb as to not notice, and we're not as wikilawyering to take what I just said as the letter of the law - the wiki doesn't work like that anyway. Put content (valid points on topics) on discussions; put comments on people on their talkpages. If I see you do it differently, you'll get a reaction from me - as has Jon. --◄mendel► 21:35, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * The difference, I would think is, that I had and have already given my imput on the issue. &mdash; Scythe   21:41, 14 Feb 2011 (UTC)

how to piss people off
Over on the admin board, you berate Jon for saying something that might piss Dr Ishmael off. That's kind of ironic, because you're here only because I wasn't afraid to piss people off when I stood up for you as you got banned off #gwiki. Yes, it's preferable to not piss people off when it can be avoided, but your posts on the admin board don't exactly follow that maxim either. Also, since they're personal, they should have been posted on Jon's and my respective talkpages.

You're also criticizing me for framing my reply as a question; I think this allows the addressee to put up an agreeing or disagreeing argument without loss of face. I believe it is far less irritating than me saying "this is a community issue, and here's why" and getting a "you're wrong, it's not" with no reasoning as reply. Somehow you didn't point that out, though, and I wonder why. --◄mendel► 22:57, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I did not criticize you for framing it as a question, I 'criticized' the use of the word isn't in that manner, I also spoke to ish about it on irc, and he agrees from an american english standpoint, your "I can't say I enjoyed it" comment, and the sentence before it can only read as inflamitory.
 * You call my being here (somehow the wiki and irc are so closely tied that a ban on one is a ban on the other?) ironic, but I find it more ironic that you leave a comment on my talk page that is read by me as either "you criticized, but did it wrong," or "why, it had no good intention behind it" when you are pushing AGF. ∵Scythe∵ 00:53, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, I think you were wrong, and I am discussing this with you to learn what is right. I've not questioned your intentions.
 * How would you have phrased what I wanted to say, preferably about as short as Dr Ishmael's post was? --◄mendel► 05:10, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * A simple lack of comment would have been best there, as you are directly criticizing his mentality/perspective. I would say with second best being along the lines of "I would agree with that, but how can we resolve the issue, what angle have we not looked at?"  A post that read as optimistic, and 100% good-willed would have been much better than something that read as condescending. ∵Scythe∵ 22:15, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, you advise something that doesn't say what I wanted to say, and in fact would say either nothing or the exact opposite. I prefer to not take this advice, thank you. --◄mendel► 23:44, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

First you brag about forcing him to ragequit on IRC <small style="color:green">"successfully infodumping mendel to ragequit since age 15", then you offer to help him? And yet you wonder why people have a hard time understanding your intentions. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 02:08, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
 * My view and mentality on this particular issue: I am often one of, if not the only person who has an issue with how mendel wrote what he wrote. If I proof it before he posts it, and he actually follows my advice, then his post would be far better recieved, wouldn't it?  That's putting a lot of faith in a 15 year old, sure, but I think I have a history of not letting the wiki down (except maybe on the RPG, sorry naz :.  Granted mendel's (only?) reaction to my advice has been "That doesn't say what I want to say."  But then again, mendel has also given me the advice that "sometimes when we most want to speak, it is wisest for us to not speak at all."
 * I wouldn't call my setinfo on irc bragging, more a small pun and plan on commercialized advertising, "serving up smiles since 1947!" and whatnot.
 * I have never questioned that mendel wants to help, just that his means were not always for the best, or handled the best. This is expected from anyone who gives that/this much to one thing.  We are not all perfect.  In some ways, I also idolize mendel, for his apparent infinite supply of expertise, and usual ultra-neutrality.

popular politics
"you cannot resolve issues in the balanced manner you speak of above without both sides giving equally" -- that is what needs to appear to happen in popular politics, but is it just? When two people appear in front of Salomon, and both claim that they own a certain cake, would giving each half "so each of you gives up something" be just? Or does it result in one person being treated unfairly while another profits? Mind you, this analogy does NOT apply to Dr Ishmael and myself, there are huge differences; all I want to do here is get you to question your outlook. Your sentiment speaks to not understanding the issues involved. --◄mendel► 04:26, 17 March 2011 (UTC) Neither are you and you don't have the right to say that, because we ALL help make up the wiki.

 * Take this hint then. when two people are discussing with one another.... Why not let them finish? Why do you always have to budge in on their discussions? It really causes problems. I'm sorry that you couldn't see me asking you to just let it be on irc. People have to work things out themselves and that they did. Your input was not necessarily needed at all. Please consider this, before your WoT which I feel is not needed either. Only reason you are misunderstood? Is because you set yourself up that way. It's better if we all work together than for drama that's not needed... "You wish to speak for the majority, when you yourself are quite clearly not a part of the majority."
 * Ok, there's a time and place for everything. Sometimes it's good to interject in an argument, sometimes it's better to let the original actors talk it out. In this case, especially considering that you are on frustrated terms with mendel, it probably wasn't the best to interject. Also, they seem to be making some progress, so it wasn't really as needed, imo. Finally, you didn't even let Ish respond first, which really seems like it was jumping the gun. I don't mean to jump on you (maybe bounce?), but that's how it came across to me (and in a different manner, to Ari). Just fyi. --JonTheMon 21:10, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

I've proposed a policy on the admin noticeboard that you might be interested in. --◄mendel► 03:14, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Dear Ariyen
I am now going to stop reading the recursive, gibberish, and hypocritical arguments you continue to bring against me. They are rarely supported by anything other than yourself, they have started to hurt to make sense of, and are more of an annoyance than they are worth. ∵Scythe∵ 21:21, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Why you were banned on #gwiki
Admittedly you did nothing wrong on the channel itself, however your actions in a private message between you and another user on #gwiki were not appropriate. You have been banned for 1 month (ending april 18th) for these actions, which I knew would eventually spill into the chat itself, and this ban was to prevent that eventuality from happening. Please reconsider your actions, and stop trying to circumvent the ban or it could be extended.--Łô√ë <font color="Black">îğá†ħŕášħ 00:20, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

pro Wikia
You claim that I do the same thing as RT with a different method. Your statement on RTs talkpage strikes me as being badly researched, possibly based on not much more than my previous post there, so I encourage you to seek out and link specific edits on guildwars.wikia, state your criticism of them, and then suggest what I should have done instead. I'd reply to that.

Just as an example, pick my latest action on GuildWars Wikia:Request assistance : a user asks to remove his account, Felix bascially said "sorry, we'll keep your stuff", I go and delete his user pages, unused file uploads, and tell him there's more on GuildWiki. I have acted in Wikia's interests by providing fast and competent service, thus making the wiki appear well-administered. I have acted in GuildWiki's interest by linking to it. But my main concern wasn't either: my main concern was to help that user as best as I could, without hurting the community. Most of my actions have more than one aspect to them, and if you're just picking the pro-Wikia aspects, you're not getting the whole picture.

Oh, btw twitter: "how do I un-merge a layer after I've done more stuff" "spam undo" -- do you mean to say you can't edit the history to remove certain actions and keep later ones? or go back to a certain point in the history with one click? I seem to remember applications that actually can do that. --◄mendel► 08:30, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
