For you. --Shadowcrest 01:01, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That was so unrespectful. I was actually about to say Alari was right, the only conclusion we can come to is that she's got a different opinion from most of us. I personally enjoyed it. Thank you, Alari.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 01:03, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I can't ban you for c/p'ing that entire convo back here. I'd rather you didn't, but I can't stop you. --Shadowcrest  01:05, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm flammable and hard-headed, but not a dick. BTW, where's the archive?[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 01:08, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * She has a showhide box near the top labeled archive. Open it, it's archive 36. --Shadowcrest  01:10, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, ty.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 01:12, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Conversation in the Archive
Excessively, I actually did that as a form of a joke. I knew that no-one would ever accept it, and RT suggested it in Alliance Chat, as a joke. I just decided to go through with it =P. &mdash; Warw/Wick 10:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Holy mother of god, it got accepted? O_o.. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 10:32, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I must wonder, however, why such a fuss is being caused over it. Belar repeatedly vandalised afaik, and I dont see why he did that. Just ignore the wiki if you dont like it. Its not going away. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 11:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You're trying too hard to get attention imo. --[[Image:Progr.png]] -- talkpage 12:09, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * What? &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 12:11, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

I happened to notice that most of your pages (if not all; I didn't read through all of them) are copied from the Guild Wars 2 Wiki. Not only is that stupid but the way in which you have copied them is a violation of the GFDL, as far as I know. -- Brains12 \ Talk 14:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm planning on changing them; They're just like that for now. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 14:58, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * And I'd appreciate it, brains, if you didn't call me stupid. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 15:00, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * He didn't call you stupid, he said it was stupid to have copied info from another wiki, especially if it's your counterpart. I'm starting to think Prog hit the jackpot with his comment...[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 16:04, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * ...Uhu. Its getting needed info on pages. I'm planning on updating it currently, and as I said, on the main page; Some of the information is GDFL. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 16:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Bad, Bad Idea
While I understand what you were trying to acomplish with making a seperate wiki; I think it is a bad, bad, idea. Why seperate the Guild Wars community again? GW2W is supposed to help change that, and help to bring the Guild Wars community back together. I know you mean well, but it is not a very good idea IMHO. --Myria83 16:54, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, ironically, the idea in itself was a joke. It got accepted and I was like.. O_o.. Anyway, I know that nearly no-one will be using it. Its really just going to be used as a recluse in case GW2W turns out to be like GWW; Which is why GuildWikians dont go over to GWW. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 16:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, Wikia didn't know it's a joke, and they aren't gonna deny somebody's desire to make an unofficial wiki if the players claimed there is a need for (and a community  to support) one.  The good news is the wiki you founded is also on the GFDL license, so you can leech everything from GW2W (provided proper attribution) and get the same article count, even if only two ppl uses it q-: -User:PanSola (talk to the [[Image:follower of Lyssa.png]]) 17:28, 10 April 2008 (UTC)


 * LLLLol. Brains got teh pwnds. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage 17:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I said it's a violation because the current copied articles have no attribution. -- Brains12 \ Talk 17:40, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Truthfully, I only did it as a half joke though. Anyway, yeah, I'm providing it- Theres a notice on the main page. Its a just in case sort of thing, cause im cautious like that- *looks back at guildwars* hey what, Im dead? &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 17:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Just saying "Stuff on thsi wiki is under GfDl" is NOT providing attribution. You need to explicitly, for each article, say "this article is derived from the content of  GW2W, the original article was (link to GW2W article), the list of contributors can be found (link to GW2W article history)." -User:PanSola (talk to the [[Image:follower of Lyssa.png]]) 18:19, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Bah.. >_> &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 18:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Its your call, guys
Since evidently many people dislike the idea of this new wiki, its honestly the wikis call. Belar said, once the wiki has more than two articles, it can be put on the page.. It has several articles now -_-. Anyway, if the cause of the dislike of it is me, I'm happy to step down and let others take control (Ie Entropy). I'm paranoid, I cant help it. Anyway, Its honestly your call. I will run this wiki on my own, regardless. Company would be nice, but its the full communities call. Any suggestions for the wiki and its running are appreciated. &mdash; Warw/Wick 12:02, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Doing the right thing for a change...I'm glad.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 16:07, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You're talking about the Guild Wars 2 wikis, right? What happens when the pool will mark the official GW2 wiki a winner? You'll delete the wannabe Guild2Wiki or what? &mdash; Poki#3 [[Image:Poki.jpg|19px|My Talk Page :o]], 16:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I dont know. It'll remain, just in case GW2W turns into GWW. Which may not happen. This is wikias site so idk. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 17:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Good question.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 17:14, 10 April 2008 (UTC)


 * If you go to GW2W now and make your proposal for a policy, you can help and shape it towards a midway between GWW and GWiki. If you think GW2W will be GWW #2, make a change. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]]-- (s)talkpage 17:22, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Im bad at that sort of thing tbh. =| I'm no good with policies.. Only enforcing them. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 17:31, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * You moved it from the Community Portal, but the issue still stands. Are you deleting it or not?[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 18:08, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I moved it form the community portal because a) it'd already been discussed b) the answer was known. I can't delete it, eranor. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 18:16, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It can't be deleted? Woot you really screwed it.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 18:25, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
