is 127.0.0.1 the IP address of the server? I am confuzzled-- Relyk 02:10, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
 * please tell me this is a joke that i'm not understanding. Danny 06:55, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
 * @Relyk. 127.0.0.1 is local host/home IP address (it's a reserved IP address that referees to the terminal you're using).
 * @Danny not that I know, but curse have been playing about with things (I don't know what with yet as i've been busy but i'll find out).  ~ PheNaxKian talk  16:40, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I was referring to Relyk asking about what 127.0.0.1 was. I figured that was common knowledge to anyone with more than a year of internet experience. Danny 15:18, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

re: IRC / GW:User_talk:Dr_ishmael/Gw.dat
Yes, it is safe. I use it routinely to grab the icons for new items. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 23:52, 26 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Again, replying to IRC that I missed (/sigh). The ATEXReader.exe is for converting *.atex files to *.png.  That's anything that GWUnpacker sorts into the gwdat/ATEX/DXT# folders.
 * If you're using the version that I sent you, then it's probably not writing those files - I modified the code to skip everything except FFNA and "Unsorted" files to make it run faster. Here I've added a "-complete" version that I recompiled with all file outputs enabled.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 01:22, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Why not just use a flag instead of having two alternates of the same exe? Disclaimer: Not my code, of course, so feel free to ignore this shit. Danny 03:57, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * @Dr Ish. Thanks, at first I thought it just checked the ffna files to see which ones were ATEX files and uncompressed and converted them at the same time (being as FFNA is a type of archive I believe). I'll grab the new version and give it a shot =D!
 * @Danny I've not looked into the code myself, I believe it's because the process probably reads and uncompress (see: Creates) the file at the same time, so there's no real way of knowing what it is until it's created (though I could be talking out of my ass). Though the source is available so you can have a look if you get bored =p.  ~ PheNaxKian talk  10:59, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I just meant about the output - allowing you to select which file-types you want out probably wouldn't be too hard. 'Course, I have absolutely no intention of actually looking into it at all myself. Danny 16:49, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah. Well currently there's no GUI at all (it's all done from command line via command line arguments). Plus i don't care enough to do it anyway (being as it only takes maybe 5 or 10 mins to unpack anyway (for me at least)).  ~ PheNaxKian talk  16:55, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Feedback
Hello! I want to thank you for everything you have done for the PvX Wiki. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Tesla, a wiki manager for Curse. The reason I am posting on your talk page is for some feedback.

If you have any ideas at all, please feel free to stop by on my talk page and leave me your thoughts. Thank you! DjTesla 06:08, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Maf's ban
I thought 1RR applied after a user reverted something they'd ALREADY reverted, not just reverting something that had already been reverted. At least, that's how it used to be enforced. Regardless, Q_Q Danny 01:03, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

Cleaning up images
Do you (or anyone else I guess) care if I just delete any uncategorized images that aren't used anywhere? Also, can I have a bot account? I was thinking of reviving Auto-Toraen so I don't have to flood RC. --  Toraen   talk  19:39, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I can't help but notice that we currently have no category for profession icons (all the tango profession icons that we use in the pvx skillbars are uncategorised) - so don't delete without moving those first :) if you suggest a category name I'll go find them and move them if you like.

 * look at the tags we have. one of them will apply. Also I'm a bit mixed with this idea Toraen. That'll leave a lot of red links. Just because some thing's uncategorised doesn't mean it isn't used... <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  21:53, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * AFAIK, toraen's saying only images that aren't liked anywhere would be deleted. -- Jai . -  22:17, November 5 2011 (UTC)
 * considering he linked to uncategorised instead of unused files, as well as not mentioning that it'd only be the unused ones, I'm inclined to disagree. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian  <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  23:06, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * "That aren't used anywhere". Eh... Only one way to read that. ~  Ӎiñon Crysig.jpg 23:16, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * how did I not see that. Special:UnusedFiles is what you want. again, be careful though, some usages aren't checked (i.e. .JS and .CSS pages that reference the image won't be picked up because they're not technically "using" it). I'll flag Auto Toraen as a bot now. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  23:24, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * May I inquire as to what a bot account does? Allows edits without notifying anyone? ~  Ӎiñon Crysig.jpg 23:52, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * marks edits and what not as bot ones, which are hidden in RC by default (There's a link to see them if you're desperate to see a wall of edits by one "user"). They also have higher limits/throttles (you probably won't notice them except for maybe moving stuff a lot where the wiki will just tell you to stop or something..) <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  23:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Ugh, I check whether the uncategorized files are linked or not before deleting, and that was my intention for this. The point of linking to uncategorized was that I want to clear out unneeded junk before doing actual tagging work (that can't be easily automated). Oh, also, I just realized that Auto-Toraen will need to be merged into my account so I can actually recreate it. KJ was the one who made it on wikia, so I can't reclaim it. If that's too much trouble/impossible I'll come up with another name. --  Toraen   talk  23:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Merged accounts. Also, you may as well use unused files instead, as any unused files in uncategorised files will show up in unused anyway. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  17:55, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, remade account. Sorry for forgetting! --  Toraen   talk  18:13, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
 * np, only takes 2 seconds to merge accounts. Made the bot a bot and admin (so it can actually delete). <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  18:29, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

links to copyrighted material
aren't technically illegal as long as it's not the express purpose of the website. unless it's against policy. not to mention, you can "illegally" download a number of items as long as you remove them from your computer after a certain period of time as defined by U.S. law - it's considered some sort of "trial" period. it's how mp3boo and mp3crank continue to not be v&.

in other words, unless we have a distinct policy against linking to downloads of copyrighted material without the owner's permission, jake didn't really do anything wrong. Danny 10:38, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * We don't have a distinct policy against botting discussion either.-- Relyk 11:56, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm fairly sure some part of the EULA or terms of usage or w/e prohibit illegal activity. Botting isn't illegal, though, just forbidden in GW. As a Guild Wars wiki, we're expected to abide by GW rules, and that doesn't really even require reasoning.

 * In regards to the botting, Dandy got it. The EULA covers that and if we want to remain a fansite we're not allowed to endorse/condone breaking that.
 * As for linking to copyright material, you're correct, however Jake linked to a torrent of the book which isn't freely available. As for the "you're allowed it for a certain period of time" that probably varies country to country, but I know here (the UK) the only time it's expectable is if you own a copy of said material (so i'm allowed a digital copy of a film/tape I own provided i don't distribute it, or keep it for an extended period of time).

PvXdecode
If you give it a template code with all non-PvP skills, but one or more have a PvP version, it'll spit out a build with (PvP) skills in it instead of the actual template you gave it. The template displayed under the build will also change. You can see this in action at the bottom of or by putting Oghiwwh8EWFeTOpZGbYOOp2A into the special page.

I just found another error in Recent/User Ratings (which I introduced, derp). See the entry for the IJAFW paragon in recent ratings for how dumb I am (wat mean urlencode). It's fixed in the box, and we might be able to push it since it's not gwbbcode related. Though they might just say no anyway. -- Toraen   confer  17:35, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Not 100% certain. Turns out the issue is more widespread than I thought. Basically mediawiki have removed some functionality that various extensions or parts of extensions use. So basically 4 files are effected (thankfully not the main gwbbcode file). However because I have no real idea of what that line really does, nor if the suggested alternative will work in this situation....anyway, I tried commenting said lines out (I don't think they're massively important...) and waiting for Curse to push it to Dev so I can check if things break without it. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  17:45, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

On the whole I've been pleased with ANet's response to issues. They've always been communicating about stuff, they've had reasonable response time to issues (not always as fast as most would like, but not left forever), I've been pleasantly pleased with the whole experience, and a friend who played the trial weekend has decided they're getting GW2 at Christmas, which I can only take as a good thing. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  00:18, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

That's perhaps the biggest issue currently (that I can think of), which they're looking into and I can imagine being a massive pain to try and think of a solution, let alone fix. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  00:21, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Real life priorities are over-powered. I sort of wish I could be complaining about the game, no joke. Getting fit plus college overrides gaming. :\ <font color="brown" size="2px">Vincent Evan <font color="brown" size="2px">[Air Henchman]  [[Image:vincels.jpg|19px]] 15:38, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi
Did you ever upgrade to skype? I stopped using msn ages ago and I need someone in a different time zone to talk about animu and stuff. Wizkid tends to be asleep a few hours after I wake up. 13:11, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
