[edit] The word "you"

Hey, you added some good stuff to the scabarites page, looks good. But remember we are not supposed to use the word "you" in articles. Say things like "the player". This is only fr articles of course, not talk pages.--Degenret01 07:38, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey, since I told you that a month ago thre is now a new discussion taking place regarding how to properly write articles over on RuneScape:Yew_grove. Whether you have any input or not it will prove to be a good discussion, because it is being solidly proposed instead of simply suggested, that we include this type of thing in the RS:SG.--Degenret01 13:52, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] MEp II

I saw you just finished the quest Mournings End Part II, and? What do you think of the quest?

BTW, i got my quest cape at 95 combat, and finished RFD at 89 combat =D

Anyway, good luck dude!

Buzz ^{(Talk • # • √ • P )} 14:31, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, it wasn't as tough as I thought. Only DT and RFD to go. I'm taking a break from quests atm, more training to do. Currently 94 combat. Thanks (for the luck)!

[edit] RE:Desert Treasure

I understand that you would be upset about me undoing that edit. I would too! Let me explain a bit. The reason I undid the entire edit was because in all, there too many things (in my opinion) that went amiss in the edit. Now, your edit was an absolutely enormous one, leaving almost no line untouched, and so to simply undo a couple of your many edits would have been impossible. Therefore, I undid the entire edit, and started adding back the good edits piece by piece. I only got two of them done so far, but remember: your edits are still preserved in the edit history! You can feel free to readd the content contributions piece by piece, but I would always suggest making small edits over enormous ones.

Here are the reasons why I undid the edit:

• You added many instances of "The player". I know you have been instructed to do so in the past, but even those instructions (which I disagree with completely) should have only applied to instances where there were "you"s. You changed things like:
  • Travel to Varrock (which is considered to be best practice), to this:
  • The player should travel to Varrock.
• There were some seemingly small edits that you made which in fact made the statement contrary to what it previously meant.

So, let's let the YG discussion go for a while, but remember, your edits are still safe in the history. Here's a link to it: [1]. As you can see, I didn't simply undo your edit and that was it. I actually spent almost 45 minutes trying to weed out the good from the bad, but then realized it would take all night and called it quits. Endasil (Talk) @  21:34, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] removing content

Why are you removing the content of talk pages??

Buzz ^{(Talk • # • √ • P )} 08:25, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm removing irrelevant content that I think is obsolete. Anyways, I'm allowed to remove my own comments right?

That is correct Buzz ^{(Talk • # • √ • P )} 08:35, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Thanks. =) earth_(t)

I appreciate every bit of help I can get on projects. earth_(t)

[edit] Re: Detail images

You'll love this. I was trying to figure out how to automatically parse a few pages out of the RS GE DB pages (namely flax, coal, maples, and nests as those are my usual reward from the Thrones of Misc./Etc. which i usually quickly sell at the GE). That was when i noticed a link in the code for the detail images that show up on the specific pages (which you could also open in Firefox by right clicking the image) all of which are at the same base URL with an ID code to lookup the specific .GIF in their item graphics DB, so i started spelunking and found that all items have a detail image even if you've never seen it the higher numbers are the newer items which tend to have more detail than the older ones such as the Ex-ex-parrot inside the cage (apparently after he un-ceases to live):

http://itemdb-rs.runescape.com/2296_obj_big.gif?id=13334

Of course i like to crop the excess white space and convert to .PNG while i'm cropping since the format is more compact and never had any legal issues. =) ~kytti khat– 12:35, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirects

I wrote why in one of the edit summaries, I suggest you read our policy. Christine 16:41, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spell Costs

You could use the preview button, instead of edit and save. And why did you remove the font color red?
  az ^talk   03:34, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

I am doing this on some kinda purpose.

For your first question, I found that the bottom part of the template in that page are all functionless. So, I was suggesting to remove the ice spells to clear off some memory space. I am not sure whether the preview can do this, since it's about the working of templates, not the page contents itself. And I found that there is no memory for the templates down the page to work.

For your second question, I do not understand why the number of costs should be in red. For expressing as a loss? For decoration? If you are the latter or have no sufficient reason, the normal text colour of preferred skin should be preferred. -| § Ξδραγωναιτε §|- 03:50, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

I am sorry that I cannot go with you.

Cost is cost, loss is loss. Cost is not loss. How would you define "loss"? How would you define "gain"? With what standard? With what to be compared? The selling price of the spell? No kidding please. The other calculators have two objects to be compared: one is cost of primary material , another one is the selling price of the final product. It is impossible to follow the other calculators to have the loss.

Also, the meaning of loss varies with the situations of players. They may think that the experience is worthy of spending that lump of money for buying the runes. Then in that case, it is a GAIN. You cannot cover the minority of some spells and this kinda of player and say that the cost can be nicked as the so-called "loss".

Another common case is that, the runes used is crafted by the player himself. Is that LOSS of money again?

If the meaning of loss cannot be clearly defined, why do we just keep the text in normal colour?

I will try to seek another way to include the deleted items on that page. -| § Ξδραγωναιτε §|- 05:52, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Done what you want. With the sleeping cap.

[edit] RE: Poisoned arrows (p++)

Adamant_arrows_(p++)

This is the link to the adamant arrows (p++) page, but i didn't use the "+".

Try this: [[Adamant_arrows_%28p%2B%2B%29]]

%2b = +
%28 = (
%29 = )

[edit] Image Upload

Hi Azliq,

I wanted to let you know that I've fixed the problem you reported on RS:YG regarding the Hunter category not being an option. Sorry nobody noticed your post or fixed the problem until now. I've archived the discussion (as little as there was); you can find it at RuneScape:Yew_grove/Archive3#Image_Upload. Thanks! Endasil (Talk) @  22:28, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Summoning uses

...I see. I hadn't actually scrolled down to see that. I just figured you put the deletion tag because of his three or so edits, not 20 or however much. Chiafriend12 10:40, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pluralizing of wikilinks

I have a pet peeve about use of links that have the "s" or whatever outside of the hyperlink. I'm responding on RuneScape talk:Style guide in more depth as I think the guideline you referenced is far from a perfect suggestion and something I happen to strongly disagree with. Still, I thank you for at least bringing it to my attention. --Robert Horning 13:52, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Safe mode

I would like to commend you on creating this page all by yourself. It is well structured, and the image is of great quality. Keep creating pages like that! €MØŠwô®L[) 10:58, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Agility Pyramid Comment

I noticed a deletion of some data from the Agility Pyramid page and you left a message saying it was 'possible vandalism'. Well the information you changed back was actually correct to my knowledge. The experience points received are now out of date with some obstacles receiving over 50xp for completion. Maybe you could look into this further for me. Thanks.

[edit] Icons

Hey, perhaps you are right about the discribing text, but if you dont have a frame around it, ít looks more weird, because the text 'touches' the image. I hope you understand, if not, you can delete the frames, but I think this is the best look. -- Hapi007 ^{Talk! Sign!} . 14:16, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Guam potion (unf)

Azliq7, I saw there were 2 of those images, so if that one is more widely used for the Unf guam potion, will you delete the other one then? Rather, unmark the one I did and mark the other for deletion as it is a duplicate. I just chose the one for the page that looked the best. 12:10, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Infobox item

Added to Yew grove.

Check it out.

[edit] On my Userpage...

On the Combat and Skills part of my page how do i write info right of the stat boxes,without moving them down.  Santairo ^talk  12:24, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

I meant on my combat and skill bit how do i write to the right of the boxes wih my skills in without pushing them down e.g:

Stat ..........Info blah blah blah(dont pay any attention to the dots)....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... .Box

[edit] Re:Update:New Website and Much More...

Oh, right. I forgot that it is supposed to be the exact same as from the RuneScape website. I only put it under the Website category too because it included news about the new RuneScape main page.  C Teng ^talk 02:58, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cheese+tom batta

Yes, I realized shortly afterwards that the GE name and the In-game name were different. I thought I had just moved it back. However, it appears to me now that I am unable to move it back. Would you mind moving it back for me? I would appreciate it. Sorry, it seems I'm screwing up more that I'm doing good anymore. Maybe it's best to just lay low for a while. =\ 15:15, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hello person who was with me at Runecrafting Guild

Boo! I R Zaros 10:07, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Yea, and I think that mod was real upset. Your so evil. LOL.--Degenret01 10:13, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

I was helping the other team last round, didn't notice what you were doing till time was almost up. I think Zaros was doing both, not sure. So it goes.--Degenret01 10:23, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

I was doing the 50/50 thing, but I couldn't resist winning. I R Zaros 10:30, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] wikifest, minifest

Even though its not going to be for a little bit yet, there is no reason not to have a "mini" fest or something. Getting together a little more often should be cool. And to avoid a lot of people complaining about the time when they can and can't make it, just announce your hosting one and when, and stick with it, unless like no one can make it. Maybe we could have like a wiki clan. But with none of the regular clan rules about attendance and multiclanning and whatever. I for one would be happy to let people use my gilded altar whenever I am training prayer or alching.--Degenret01 09:23, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Sure. I've wanted to have another wiki get-together more than just 4 times a year. When should it be?  C Teng ^talk 16:55, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Let's just post it on the Forums and we'll decide the best date.  C Teng ^talk 17:27, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I just posted that I can host a "mini"fest on Sat Aug 30th or Sun the 31st, either day at 10Am Eastern time or 6 PM. Spread the word, let me know if these dates/times work.--Degenret01 06:20, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Custom edit buttons

I've added them; I have no problem with adding more and I think most people would like more. I used different images though, mainly because it's better to use the images hosted on Wikia rather than the ones on Wikimedia's servers, which can be found here. I'll leave a little message on the Yew Grove saying I added them in and that if people want they can request any they want.--Richard 17:03, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Jagex Store

I've added it to Template:Popular articles.--Richard 17:08, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cool Signature

Hi, nice signature, could you tell me how to do that expcept make the box red, and instead of a chamealeon, make it a master wand, put Phoenix, and only have talk? If you don't mind, it is just you signature is so COOL! Please?

[edit] Re: Postie Pete cleanup tag

Okies I got a fresh capture of him in there, i was confused since it was on the article and the dialogue window difference seem rather minor. What originally took me there was that one of the images itself was tagged for cleanup (the long dialogue window). ~kytti khat– 18:25, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] I see...

I now know what you mean, yes I put in four tides and this is the output, I'm sorry I will expiremnt and try to fix it. I promise I put in the four tides.   Phoenix ^Talk   21:00, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Skin

Yew I agree with all the points you pointed out on the Yew Grove, just one question, how would I go about changing the skill images, do I change them all to a different size, or, just the ones that can't be seen? Thanks.
