Skill DB's
k I have updated the datebases with the skills and updated all the PvP versions on DB's 1 and 2, that's really all I understand what to do, I think there is an issue with skill name DB and skill image DB to do aswell, in anycase they are done. --<font color="Black">Frosty  16:25, May 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * well we can't do anything about skill images. as for skill name DB (this is only if you've created or removed a (pvp) skill, otherwise you don't need to edit it), that's just:

'skillname'=>skillID, 'Skillname (pvp)'=>9SkillID,
 * skillname should be fairly obvious =p. For ID if we have:

1639=> array ( 'name'=>'Assassin\'s Remedy', 'chapter'=>3, 'profession'=>'Assassin', ... 'name_id'=>'assassins remedy', )
 * then the ID is that first number (in this case 1639). If you've just created a PvP version, we need to give it an ID no. We do it by taking the PvE ID (so in this case 1639) and sticking a '9' on the front so we get a 5 digit number (91639). If the PvE ID is 123 however, we add '90' (to get 90123) (basically the first digit should be 9 and add extra 0's until it's 5 digits =p). <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  18:13, May 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * K I've done that then, guess it is just a matter of resyncing. I just wished the skill images would show and the PvP skills would actually work :/ I've forgotten if it is even possible. --<font color="Black">Frosty  [[Image:Frostcharge.jpg|19px]] 18:33, May 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * it is, just not by us =p. But considering we can't get the templates for PvP skills to work still (I left a note on TOR's page about it a while ago, and I think KJ told him when it first came up, but i don't think it's been sorted yet), i don't see it as a huge issue because the build pages use the PvE skills (for the correct template) <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  18:53, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

just realized you said you think you want to be a game programmer
don't do it. it's soulless, thankless work that doesn't pay very well at all. i'd suggest getting into engine development, if you actually like CS, or game design if you just want to make video games. (game design pay sucks, too, but being a codemonkey is about as much fun as fellatio.) &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Daññy (talk &bull; contribs).


 * yeh, ideally I'd like to go into gaming, it changes specifics though. Like recently I liked the sound of doing something more AI oriented (though that may change depending on how much I enjoy my AI module this coming year, but it's the current plan =p). Engine development has been something I thought about though (as in "that might be a cool idea..oh something shiny!" (seriously <<)).
 * on the whole I don't really know what I want to do really xD Gaming has always been something I wanted to get into, but I'm not holding my breath (hence why I'm doing CS instead of a gaming course). <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  19:09, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * AI stuff pays well and has useful applications. I'd go with that. Plus, it's a great excuse to write bots to test your abilities at getting code to interface with "reality". Daññy 04:35, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

little question
is there a way to leave a note of where a page/article has been moved when the redirect is suppressed, such as for formally deleted pages? The problem comes up when builds are redirected and people can't find them. I'd prefer if it wasn't at someone's discretion whether a redirect should be left so people can find it easily.-- Relyk  talk  23:46, August 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * the "note" is the redirect itself. You can chose if you want to leave a redirect or not when moving a build, you just check (or uncheck) the "leave redirect behind" box (or something like that, can't remember what it exactly says). If you do decide to leave a redirect though, make sure that you edit the page and place a delte tag under the redirect (this way it shows up as a candidate for deletion, but you still get redirected). <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  09:48, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Toraen also had some template for notifying on a person's talk, I think -- -Chaos- (moo!) -- 09:50, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * yeh, you could always notify someone on their talk using the   template. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian  <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  10:07, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * The point is not having to delete the redirect afterward while people can still find the redirected page unless it's not enough of hassle for people to care.-- Relyk  talk  10:15, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Then no, you can either have a redirect, or a deleted page, you can't have a non-existent page with a redirect on it. All you can do is search the move log to see if it was moved, or alternatively, contact people involved. I think (though i could be wrong on this point) that if a page is moved and the redirect is suppressed, your watchlist still auto updates. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  10:26, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

 * That troll is a bit funny, I saw his message before you reverted, but it's also a bit annoying for you I think. Maybe tell Wikia to ban all of his home IPs and probably work IPs wiki-wide? <font color="Blue">Ju <font color="Blue">ze JuzeAvatar.jpg 14:56, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeh, i'd thought about range blocking his IPs, but they're spread so far apart there'd be a lot of IPs banned (some 4000 odd between the 2 I checked =/). It's not really that annoying, it takes 2 seconds to block and revert him, so it's easy enough to sort. Just ignore him and revert any edits by him and he'll soon lose interest, he's not the first person this determined to evade a ban. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  15:02, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Any idea as to why people are getting set back to Monaco skin? I know they're talking about all that skin stuff and maybe even dropping monobook, but it's still a selectable option and people keep telling me they're getting reset to Monaco. <font color="Black" face="cambria">Karate  <font color="Black" face="cambria">Jesus  <font face="Arial" color="gray" size="1">13:33, 3 September 2010  (UTC)
 * I've been switched back to monaco from monobook three times since yesterday >.< --TahiriVeila 13:35, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Meh, let me see what I can find out. <font color="Black" face="cambria">Karate [[File:KJ for sig.png]] <font color="Black" face="cambria">Jesus  <font face="Arial" color="gray" size="1">13:37, 3 September 2010  (UTC)

Ok, here's what happening. Last night, Wikia did some server maintenance and fucked up the skin preferences. This is due to the fact that they plan on discarding Monaco as a skin soon and implementing a new skin across all of the wikis.

Here's what this means for us. According to the official FAQ in concerns to users who prefer Monobook, "We will also continue, for now, to support the skin as a personal (viewing) choice for those readers that have a strong preference." . Wikia has refused to explain what "personal (viewing)" means; however, it has strongly been implied that Monobook will be a read-only skin and that you will not be able to edit from the Monobook skin. In other words, it seems likely that you may be forced to switch between skins in order to edit pages.

Now, this news has received biblical-sized backlash from the community. The community is pissed off about Monaco, about the new ads, about the lack of customization, and about Monobook. However, Wikia has been known to completely ignore it's community and do things anyway (like making Monaco the primary skin).

I think I can speak for everyone here when I say that I don't want Monobook to be shelved, and couldn't give less of a rat's ass about this new skin. So, here are some ways you can help:
 * To get informed, here are two of the FAQs you can look at.
 * To speak out against these changes (and specifically mention Monobook), post on one of these two blogs about the changes. There are already hundreds of people against these changes, but the more we can do, the better.

Thanks guys, and let's hope this shit doesn't happen. <font color="Black" face="cambria">Karate  <font color="Black" face="cambria">Jesus  <font face="Arial" color="gray" size="1">14:09, 3 September 2010  (UTC)

fraid i don't know, happened to me (once) this morning, i've been on monobook since though. While i don't know what "personal viewing choice" means, i'm inclined to say it'll be read only. Though i imagine if enough people (read: Uncyclopedia or w/e it's called) kick up a fuss they'll make it read/write. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  17:02, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * You can get into beta and suggest good stuff that can be as close to monobook as possible... Just a thought. (I don't like what wikia will become. I think it's going to suck.)[[File:User Ariyen sig icon.gif]]riyen 18:06, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * We're not overly worried about it, as GW2 is on the horizon (and we have plans), but it is annoying.

It's going away from what it should be to more like those communities out there on ning and that's going to really suck (just my opinion). [[File:User Ariyen sig icon.gif]]riyen 18:50, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to hit you with a orange banner, Phen, but I thought I'd update everyone on this. Monobook is going to be kept and we will be able to edit from it. However, about half of the features we currently have access to with Monobook will be dropped. You'll have to switch between skins in order to access them. We don't know which features will suffer from this, but I'm pretty sure it won't be good. <font color="Black" face="cambria">Karate  <font color="Black" face="cambria">Jesus  <font face="Arial" color="gray" size="1">15:00, 6 September 2010  (UTC)
 * hmmm probably only wikia specific functions. They'll probably drop support for monobook specific functions though (so you can't go "QQ this monobook feature isn't working make it work pl0x")

Hey Phen
2 things I want to mention. 1, don't you think we must do something about the editing. Like block it for users or so. This way we can counter several users doing many annoying things. Also, noticed at the tag AID in KJ's talk page, what do you think about the plan of reducing the builds here. <font color="Blue">Shadow Form Slayer  19:11, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't entirely follow point 1, you mean ban certain users? or prevent certain people from banning certain pages...? As for number 2, my stance on that subject remains the same as it's always been, and i've always been outvoted for one reason or another, but no, i see no need to reduce the number of builds (either via changing the vetting borders, or through other means). <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  19:15, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, not ban users, make the ability to edit builds for users somehow not happen. Also, I mean with making the amount of builds smaller, I mean, seriously. There are dozens of builds here, but for 75% they are actually used (imo). Also, as I gave as example, the knock-locking assa or the jagged-fox-death chain with its variants. That is what you can summarize. <font color="Blue">Shadow Form Slayer  [[Image:Shadow_Form~_Slayer.jpg|19px]] 19:21, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * ah. As i'm aware there's no easy way of doing so (certainly nothing that wikia would implement for us anyway). I'm well aware, I still think cutting them down is pointless and just points the site to "meta only" which I'm strongly against. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  19:28, September 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * there's also the troubles with when and what builds you can compress into a 'generalized' build. One classic example is people wanting to compress the BA/cripshot/broadhead arrow ranger pages into one because 7/8 skills were the same, but the people with power wanted them to remain separate because the playstyle for each bar was completely different. &mdash; Maf so rational. 23:31, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
