Changing Article Author
A writers help Forum would be a bit useful, is there any way to add something like that? or a FAQ section? I have a question which I think is suitable for such a forum but there doesn't seem to be one. The question is, I posted articles before I realised that I could register but those articles are now authored by my IP address. Is there any way I can remove the IP and get it as my name. Thanks.-- BlastZ 10.11 2 Jun 2005 (BST)
 * Use GuildWiki_talk:How to Help if you have questions. Wikis don't exactly record authorship, just who made which edits.  While we don't want to misappropriate content, having your name on an article isn't really what wikis are about.  --Fyren 19:49, 2 Jul 2005 (EST)
 * Yeah, you can claim the articles from your user page if you like. Just say "I wrote these before I had an account". I don't think there's any way to change the author's of content. This is why we suggest registering first ;) 22:21, 2 Jul 2005 (EST)
 * I guess its more I don't like having my IP posted than anything else. I was also eager to post as it seems such a good idea that I didn't notice the register bit for a while. BlastZ 22.50 3 Jun 2005 (BST)

Skill Article Colors
I thought you were matching the color of the skill box to the color of the class.


 * Hey Issues :) this is under discussion. Some people want to use colors for professions, but some (including me) think this restricts our choice of colors for other types of boxes. I.e. if you look at a page and see a green box you know its a skill, or a pink box you know its a monster, or something like that :) I'm starting a discussion on Guildwiki Talk:Style & Formatting/Skills on this issue, keep an eye on it :)


 * P.S. Good work getting all those skills details written up! :D LordBiro/Talk 23:01, 29 May 2005 (EST)


 * Heh I like the idea of matching boxes to type of info rather than class association for the reasons mention in the chat. I did it this way just because the first skill I found that was written up was a necro skill and was green so I thought I was following convention. I'll change what I put in etc. --Issues 23:47, 29 May 2005 (EST)


 * Hehe, thanks Issues :) Sorry about the confusion! It's not very well documented yet ;) - LordBiro/Talk 23:56, 29 May 2005 (EST)

General Chat
1) Your user page rocks and I am COMPLETELY stealing it, except for the sissy pink. 2) ..aCquisition? Why.. uh.. I knew that. See, what I was doing, see, is having a little typo, right? In all those skills I did. So someone else could go along and correct them, and contribute, right? Ye olde wikipedia suggests such a strategy! Really!.. but, uh, thanks for the correction anyway. I mean, contribution! Nunix


 * Hehe, thanks man ;) Feel free to rip it off! RE: spellings, I think you could maybe make use of, but I have no idea how it works :) LordBiro/Talk 03:41, 4 Jun 2005 (EST)


 * Just testing my new sig 21:16, 15 Jun 2005 (EST)

It's skale and not scale :) The page Skale already exists Fengol

Man, Biro, you're always on this thing! I hope you're in Europe (or further!), as getting up at 6AM (or earlier) to edit the wiki is downright insane. :) Tanaric 20:46, 20 Jun 2005 (EST)

Hehe, I live in the UK, don't worry! I don't stay up too late ;) I just finished uni recently and haven't found a job yet, so I have a lot of spare time on my hands :) 20:59, 20 Jun 2005 (EST)

I'm in Germany myself, though only during summers; I attend college in the States. I wiki when I have downtime at work. :)

To abruptly change the subject: Is there any reason Category:Generic Items has "Items" capitalized? For the same reason as my last capitalization rant, I think it should probably be Category:Generic items, as I hate typing generic items. Tanaric 21:10, 20 Jun 2005 (EST)


 * Your call Tanaric, I just filled in the red link :) 21:11, 20 Jun 2005 (EST)

Another random question: what is TFC? &mdash;Tanaric 21:44, 22 Jun 2005 (EST)

Team_Fortress_Classic, one of my favourite games :D 22:40, 22 Jun 2005 (EST)

Ah, I know what that is, just didn't think about it. It's not exactly a commonly-played game anymore. :) &mdash;Tanaric 22:14, 23 Jun 2005 (EST)

Yeah :( it's a shame! But at least some of us still play it ;) 22:17, 23 Jun 2005 (EST)

Biro, thanks for commenting on my map editor. It's nice to have some moral support; without it, I never get around to finishing projects. Eventually, I'll throw the code itself on there, and you can test/break it for me. ;) &mdash;Tanaric 21:53, 11 Jul 2005 (EST)

Hehe, no problem Tanaric :) It really does look interesting! I was a fan of final fantasy tactics, and your game really appeals to me :) 03:09, 12 Jul 2005 (EST)

The first playable version was a straight clone of FFT; it worked well enough to prove that I could make it work 100% (basically, the engine was done, and I just needed to populate the data files). I couldn't release that publically, though; copyright infringement and the like would've killed it. Lucid Stratagem is kinda like what FFT would be if it used Guild Wars's skill system&mdash;I think this will work better than FFT anyway, as many of the classes in FFT were fairly useless, or way overpowered. It'll be fun when I finish it. :) &mdash;Tanaric 03:09, 13 Jul 2005 (EST)

Ah right :) well let me know when you have something I can play with, it seems really interesting, I don't know how you make time to develop it ;) 04:18, 13 Jul 2005 (EST)

I posted a new build; it's completely useless except for a working version of the map editor. If you play with it, use the screen shots on the map editor page to help figure out what textures can go where, or dig though the package tree and look at the images directly to see where they work: net.tanatopia.sp.ls1.images.textures &mdash;Tanaric 10:59, 13 Jul 2005 (EST)
