Connection problems?
For lack of a better place to put it, I'll just holler from my own talk page: Anyone else having trouble logging into GW for the past hour or two? -- Bishop [ rap|con ] 22:24, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * There's been a lot of err 7 these past few days and I bet the global access to elite missions isn't helping. --Theeth (talk)   22:26, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Indeed, but can you log in at all? I have been completely unable to log in (and not for lack of trying!) for two hours. -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 22:28, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I was just in, no problem. I asked, and no problems for anyone in my guild either.  On Thursday they had listed on the login screen a message about emergency maintenance needed for the European data center.  The message isn't there today, but I wonder if there's still an ongoing problem. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 22:31, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Thanks for the reply, although that is disheartening, as I still cannot log on. The European problems generally do not affect me as I play on the US servers (although I am techincally located in Europe). -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 22:41, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Are you getting err 7, or does it just time out, or some other message? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 23:08, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I couldn't get in for several hours, hopefully its fixed for you too now. --Kryshnysh 23:16, 4 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Yes, after about 3 hours, I was able to log in. With 1 hour left of time to play. :´( -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 00:36, 5 August 2006 (CDT)

GuildWiki:Policy
You might be interested in what I did to Policy. &mdash;Tanaric 18:06, 5 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Heh, I note you've notified all the active admins... and me. I thank you for the interest in my opnion (or is it just that I happened to be online at the time...?) :) -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 18:53, 5 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I saw your name in RecentChanges, and I remembered you caring about this stuff. :) &mdash;Tanaric 19:00, 5 August 2006 (CDT)

Refusal for adminship
Hi Bishop! I've been keeping an eye on the discussion on Gravewit's talk page about additional admins and I couldn't help but notice that you refused your nomination for adminship. I think it's a shame that you resigned based on Tanaric's opinions, especially considering he nominated you in the first place (although I realise that is a bit of a moot point).

I just wanted to register my sadness more than anything. I hope that we can resolve things and that once we have you'll be willing to become an admin again.  &lt;LordBiro&gt;/&lt;Talk&gt; 03:12, 11 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I second that opinion. Even though we disagree on what's good for the wiki, you'd make an excellent addition to our team. &mdash;Tanaric 09:59, 11 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Tanaric; just to make it perfectly clear, I habor no ill will towards you. You and I see eye to eye on many things, although I am still mighty disappointed with your stand on the admins issue. And I do appreciate the vote of confidence, especially after we had such a spill. (Also see below) -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 01:47, 12 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Thank you for the kind encouragement, Biro. It means a lot. Like I stated on my user page, I'm currently sorta off from the wiki because I have a whole lot of stuff to do concerning my new job and I don't really have time to play GW at all (but as you can see from this, I still sneak in a little time to read up on the wiki). And I note that there has been developments on the admin front since I last checked that I don't have time to completely understand right now.


 * But what that boils down to is that once I have some more time, it is very likely that I will be back to my usual wiki-obsessed self -- and maybe then I'll just have to butt heads with Tanaric again untill we come to some sort of understanding. In other words, it is not completely ruled out that I would accept a nomination some time in the future, especially because several people whom I respect on GuildWiki seem to genuinely think I could make a difference. That sorta thing obligates.


 * At any rate, I'm going to go back to configuring my new work-pc now (well, after I go apologize to Rainith). Keep it real. -- [[Image:Bishop_icon2.png]] Bishop [ rap|con ] 01:47, 12 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I'd be more than happy to discuss my thoughts on the admin issue in more detail with you, but real-time communication lends itself better to that sort of thing. Let me know if you're interested. &mdash;Tanaric 14:16, 13 August 2006 (CDT)
