hello

i dont know if i should post it here but anyway. i tried to authenticate my e-mail adress several times for several weeks now but i do not get any mail. could you please authenticate it or tell me what i am doing wrong? Riktw 15:18, 19 January 2009 (EST)
 * Hi Riktw =). It's fine to ask me this question (we get it quite a lot, so you're not the only one =p). The problem lies more on our end, the server doesn't always get the e-mail out. Unfortunately we're incapable of manually Authenticating you account. The only think i can suggest is that you create a googlemail account, even if it's only for Authenticating your account, as we've noticed it's more likely to get through to a G0mail account =p, otherwise all i can do is say keep trying =s.  ~ PheNaxKian Sysop   15:26, 19 January 2009 (EST)

Runner Builds
Hey did we ever make that SC runner build guide thing? I think we need a Droks one too. There are just too many builds that can run it, and people just keep adding them. Mission runs/Elite areas runs/etc. are worth having on the run list, but SC is ridiculously easy and there are hundreds of builds you could run droks with. 15:37, 2 February 2009 
 * Making a Droks guide would require tons of work from the writer and would never get finished. A noob will find it a hard run and needs real and finished builds to turn to. -- -Ch ao s-   16:01, 2 February 2009 (EST)

 * Just because we haven't been sued yet, doesn't mean we won't. Plus by going through them all it makes it easier to locate any copyrights, and "dead" images.

 * I don't especially mind, as far as i see the key skills are still there from each page, and it would remove a few pages =p. The only one that might not want merging is the Basic ranger runner. While the ar you've added is fine, it seems quite different from it's own article XD. <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   06:33, 16 February 2009 (EST)
 * It's because the Basic Ranger Runner bar sucks =/ It should have IAU, Dwarven Stability as optional/mainbar, no Mending at all.. Which is what I have in the R/any. --Dandybot 06:49, 16 February 2009 (EST)
 * While I don't run as much as I did, I used the Basic ranger runner, and it was quite effective ;o. But that wasn't the point I was getting at, I was saying you shouldn't merge the basic ranger runner, because the bar you've got on your article, and the bar on it's own article are so different (regardless of one being better than the other). <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   06:54, 16 February 2009 (EST)
 * The Basic Ranger is actually just outdated. Mending Touch is unnecessary when you can have IAU. Mending is inferior to Feel No Pain, and Dwarven Stability + Escape is 2 skills to replace the 3 stances it uses. I've still varianted using Zojun's/Dodge on the R/any. It's either merge or then well the old rammo, which aswell falls under merging. --Dandybot 07:00, 16 February 2009 (EST)

I keep meaning to make a tag for builds which hvae been in testing for a set period of time without being vetted (on the community portal talk something like unvetted builds iirc).  Basicaly the tag is added to builds that hvae been in testing for 3 weeks - a month without being vetted. The build then shows up in a category of "vetting needed" or something. which would be more usefull imo.

PvXCode
Hi Phenaxkian. Are you the best person for TOR to talk to about PvXCode? He's going to be working on it soon and it would be really helpful if he had one point of contact to let him know about any bugs or problems with it. Angela (talk) 15:19, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually you'd probably want to talk to Dont about that. ^_^ He's inactive for most of the time though. Brandnew.  07:37, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Dont or the Hhhipppo/Gcard probably, there are the PvXcode masters. By the way does this mean the whole skill update issue is going to be looked at too? [[Image:Frostysig9000.jpg|19px]]<font color="Blue">Frosty <font color="Blue"> the <font color="Blue">Admin 07:49, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I've been talking (slightly) with Auron about this. The main question is how much code would this person need to know? If a lot's needed, then you'd want Dont, Gcard, Hhhippo or Wizardboy. GCard or Hhhippo would be preferable, as they're the ones who worked server side before the move to wikia, so they'd be more knowladgable. I'm not sure how much experience Wizardboy or Dont have with PvXcode, but they're the ones who are better with code (wiki code at least). If This person doesn't need much in the way of code knowledge, then me or any other active admin would do it =p.
 * I feel it's worth mentioning, that as far as bugs go, we do have a section on our Admin noticeboard down near the bottom XD. <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   17:32, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Wizardboy said he wouldn't like such a position, as he knows little of the server side code, and he's not likely to do any testing of it. Auron also seems to think that GCard and Hhhipo wouldn't be good choices either due to their inactivity. I think Dont might have a similar position as Wizardboy truthfully (he's inactive at the moment). I'd be willing to do it, but like I said above, it really depends on how much experience the user needs with the code (I don't have any >.>). <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   22:25, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Seeing as my pet projects have all finished up in recent weeks, I might be willing to take on such work. I've recently (read: Starting January '09) gained experience working with server-side coding, and I've got a decent background in programming to begin with. Ofc, I have no experience with SQL, so that could be a challenge. On top of that, I'm working 30 hours per week and attend college full time, so the amount of time I'd have to dedicate to such a project would be limited and sparse. If no one else steps forward, however, or if people who don't have backgrounds want to learn, I could give a hand. I will note, however, that I would not desire nor accept additional admin duties or abilities. I can be contacted at dannyderanged@hotmail.com on MSN or DannyDeranged on AIM. 128.255.216.144 22:33, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

I suggest you pick someone with coding skills and spare time and he/she contacts Gcardinal to learn how PvXcode currently works. I never looked into PvXcode myself and I don't have time for big projects here, so I'm not the one. I think gc doesn't have time to do much himself either but maybe he can give some advice for new person to start on it. –&thinsp;<font color="darkblue" face="times">H HHIPPO  &thinsp;‹<font color="blue" size="-2">sysop › 10:38, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

From testing to stub?
May i ask why, more than "sections missing" the bars explain themselves, do they not? --<font color="FF4500" face="calibri">Darklɘs  <font color="#FF8C00" face="calibri">McChaosmongɘr  21:40, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Generally, yes. But, unfortunately, PvXwiki is a wikipedia, meaning that any and all bureaucratic bullshit will come to pass at some point or another. Really, though, stub ought to just be added, rather than the rating box removed, which means whoever's been not doing that needs to go and replace all of those. "Unfinished" articles can still be vetted. 128.255.216.144 21:46, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The point of PvX (at least originally and from what I understand) was an encyclpedia of GW builds, with which relatively new players (so players that haven't been playing long, but have reached lvl 20 and got all the atts etc.) learn to play new builds. This means that the essential parts of any article are:


 * Usage
 * Counters
 * Any major variants
 * Important notes
 * the other sections aren't quite as important, but it would help if there was equipment (in some cases equipment can be essential, in cases such as a 55hp), minor variants, and other notes.
 * @128.255.216.144 (Cadev I think >.>),while unfinished builds can be vetted, they shouldn't. Obviously when I got through vetted builds, I'll try and tag them with cleanup (which I've done with some testing where perhaps only a small unimportant section is missing) <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   22:09, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Cedave/Danny here. Biggest problem with stubbing builds and not leaving them in their categories is that we have suddenly have builds disappearing from the Great section, which is a general reference point. Unless a build uses skills in extremely unique ways or has not-so-obvious counters, Usage and Counters can be largely omitted. Variants are nice, but often only come into play when tweaking a build to fill a modified role, which generally includes altering attributes, etc., and isn't necessarily PvX's job to worry about. Notes should only be made, again, about things that aren't entirely obvious. And by obvious, I mean obvious to players who have a general understanding of the arena in which the build is meant to be used. If you don't know what you're doing in general, knowing how to use a build isn't going to assist you very much. Experience is a requirement of Guild Wars, as with most games. For new players, this is what guilds are for. 128.255.216.144 22:21, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * tl;dr: obvious facts are obvious, non-obvious facts generally do have explanations, and are generally reserved for farming builds. 128.255.216.144 22:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
 * ^ +1, and if your a frontliner you kill stuff, if your a monk you keep shit alive, if you midline you either help kill stuff or shut stuff down. thats common knowledge to most people who use this wiki... --<font color="FF4500" face="calibri">Darklɘs  <font color="#FF8C00" face="calibri">McChaosmongɘr  [[Image:Darwkchawossig.jpg|19px]] 22:45, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Don't move team builds into stub for lack of writeup. Generally the only additional sections that should ever be put into team builds are usage, variants and equipment. Variants aren't necesarry. Equipment consists of minor variations on a few basic templates, and is largely down to personal preference. Usage for an entire team build is way too long to put in every single build we have, and we have the guides section for a reason. Not to mention, on the team builds that do have usage, the usage is generally a bunch of complete bullshit that doesn't help even the newest players in the slightest. Believe it or not, you simply can't summarise how to run a certain build in a few bulletpoints at the bottom of a page. If you're really so bored now that you've got the pointless image tagging policy pushed through and need to something else pointless, you could try actually writing up some of the things you think are missing instead of singlehandedly sodomising what is probably the most important part of the PvP build section. If you do ever feel that a build in good/great absolutely has to be moved into stub to be fixed (for a somewhat legitimate reason), then don't wipe votes. You say that PvX is supposed to be an encyclopaedia of GW meta builds, how exactly does taking some of the main meta builds out of their categories and forcing them to sit in testing for a few weeks due to PvX being more or less dead help us achieve that? Sure, there shouldn't be any votes on stub categories, but if it's a great build then it should get fixed up in a day or two. Imo, a insignificant policy violation is preferable to a build site without vetted builds. I have no objection to you stubbing single character builds due to lack of usage/equipment, as those sections are somewhat significant there. Tab 22:13, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

With HA and GvG teams I will agree that usage might be a tad tedious to do for 8 separate builds. You mentioned using guides, then a simple link to the relevant guide should suffice, or if the build exists on the wiki, a link to that (they should have usage at least) With the 4 man teams, I think some usage should be there, although if there's a link to the relevant guide that would be fine again. I have no objections if there's no equipment section, like you said, that's a matter of personal preference. You say the variant section isn't necessary, but remember not everyone will be UAX, and might be missing one or two skills, so some variants might be useful at least, but i won't call it essential. Like I said above I'd consider an article to be the bar, usage, Major variants, and counters and any important notes or special/required equipment). (you can say that's all crap for all I care, the next bit's all that really matters :/)

What I'll do is this: I'll go through the unvetted builds, and stub those that seem necessary, I'll leave any votes that are there. When I get to Vetted builds, I'll simply tag with Cleanup where necessary. Sound fair? <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   23:09, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Nope. Trying to write up a proper usage for team builds is a waste of time, it's really a lot more complicated than just giving a short explanation of what each skill does and when to use it, and anyone with any intelligence whatsoever can figure that out from hovering over the skills in the bar anyway. Writing up the usage for a PvP build would consist of in depth explanations of when how to respond to every other meta build in that format, as well as detailed uses of how to use each skill when, which is exactly what the guide section is for. Linking to guides is fine, but killing the builds section for no reason whatsoever until someone finds the time to write them up is simply unacceptable. I'll repeat the point - I'm not against the usage thing due to the tedium of it, it's because you aren't going to make a usage section of any value whatsoever without turning the build into a guide - which we don't want as it simply makes it harder to access.
 * If there's one thing I am not going to let you do, it's forcing a variants section on builds for people that haven't unlocked some of the skills. If a variant actually adds something worthwhile to the build, then it's going to be there. Vastly lowering the quality of the builds section for the benefit of people that are too lazy to spend at most 15-30 minutes unlocking the last few skills (which they'll rarely have to do due to every class having a handful of ubiquitous skills) does nothing but make the standards of this site even lower.
 * As I said, I agree that single character builds should be moved to stub (with votes staying) until they have the bar, usage, variants, etc. However, my point is that team builds do not need, and arguably should not contain the usage section in particular, as any attempt at making one is going to be a complete joke. Major variants are always added, even by the laziest of authors, where there are actually major variants worth taking. As I said, adding inferior variants for the sake of having variants is not going to happen. All that a team build needs for a complete writeup is variants, and possibly equipment (which can be accounted for simply by saying "standard meta equipment"), and that's the standard we've always maintained.
 * By all means, tag/stub where necesarry. But do not keep on doing it to team builds due to the lack of a usage/detailed equipment list, which is more or less the point I'm making. [[Image:Cute McMonkey.png]]Tab 23:28, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
 * At the end of the day, you're the admin, and if you feel that making stubbing builds without usage/equipment/whatever policy is the right thing to do, then that's your choice. But not only will it have no effect whatsoever on the quality of build articles where it actually gets done, you'll find that we just end up with even fewer builds getting written up, even more builds sitting in stub instead of getting vetted, and even less of the few remaining people on this site that aren't complete morons having any willingness whatsoever to contribute. Pushing through random policies that have no benefit whatsoever for the sake of it, which is more or less what you've been doing lately, does nothing to improve the site, and only causes the existing members to lose interest. GWW-style management may work for GWW, but this is PvX, and one of the reasons PvX has been as successful as it has (despite what everyone thinks about the userbase etc, it has been), is due to the fact that we chose not to go down the path of being overly bureaucratic.
