Quest Tag Clarification?

I didn't tag all those items from Curse of the Ghost Ship as quest because I thought the tag was for items used in quests, not items from quests. From now on, I should tag anything found through a paid quest with the quest tag? --TEVESHSZAT 01:05, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

The quest tag is for items that are found on a quest and trigger the flag that it's a rare item. This is so people can easily do searches for items that are only shop available and the like. So, yes, please. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 01:30, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Template bug

There is a bug in the default templates. The code for the "free text" ends up floating out on the finished page when you create or edit any page with the form. Like so:

|free text=}}

I know. I am not sure how to fix it. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 04:43, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

NOW it's fixed. [mutter] -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 05:47, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Premium Page

Is there already a Premium page that links to Premium titles, shops, etc? I cannot seem to locate it. If not, I have plans to create one as I've been gathering premium verbs also. --Steph 1520 29 Decemeber 2011 EST

Not that I know of. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 20:01, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

I found an Estate Holder Page. Going to work off that one when I get around to this. :) --Steph 2058 31 December 2011 EST

Site Layout in Firefox 9.0

I have some information about what is causing the left-hand menu to be pushed down in Firefox 9.0. --Isharon 20:29, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

This is caused by browser sniffing that has been broken in Firefox 9. The property navigator.taintEnabled is no longer supported so the wrong css file gets loaded which sets the margin-left of the div column-content to zero. As a result there is less room for the navigation div which is pushed down.

Sounds like we may need to update stuff. Lemmie see if I can find someone to do that. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 04:21, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

I just caught a thread while doing my Mozilla Work, so I actually do know what is causing that, I'll plan to launch AIM and touch base with you this week to figure out if there is a stopgap we can do to fix it short-term, and try to schedule a time/date to do a larger site-maintenance with you. ... Unless you have someone else in mind who can do devote more time here for you. --Callek 18:03, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

Nope, you were the one I had in mind. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 18:10, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

PC Template

Would you mind adding a status (y/n/r) to indicate whether the PC is active, dead, or retired? Some PCs have been killed off, and their players would like to indicate this in the infobox. Thanks! --Isharon 05:56, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Done. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 11:39, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to be working. In fact, I have grown a weirdness on some PC pages. "Status {{#if: | " I attempted adding this field but it does not result in a normal look to the field, just gives the addition of a letter before the bar |. The forms for PC and the help pages should be updated, also, once this field is working properly. I do not have sufficient access to edit those.  :) --Steph 12:51 PM Wednesday, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

The display is not working correctly. I changed "alive" to "active" (to contrast with retired). Would you consider moving the status line from the top to beneath the "instance" line? Thanks! --Isharon 17:55, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Oops. Fixed. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 20:06, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! It's working now. --Isharon 20:16, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Weapon Template

If the weapon template hasn't been updated recently, the damage scale has changed. The correct scale is listed here. --Isharon 20:31, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

The highest damage is no longer called "god-like." Instead, it is "catastrophic." --Isharon 20:44, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

....well #^^#$^#$. If I update the weapon template, we're going to have issues with slowdowns like before... I think I'll wait on it a week or so. Let the folks finish updating the fest stuff. Remind me in a week if I forget. <mutter> -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 00:53, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Should be all updated now. Lemmie know if I missed anything. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 11:49, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

18 stone bola

I'd like to put in an order for one of these. IGN = Felrin I've never edited a wiki, so sorry if this looks sloppy or it's missing things Like a user name. Or the date it was posted. But I'm on eastern time. So lemme know the details, thanks.

Spammers

Are the spam accounts not being made from any common IP addresses? It's possible using admin controls for the website to disable account creation by IP or a range of IP addresses. Just trying to save you admin guys a some trouble. Personally, I want to punch them in the face, even if they are just bots.--Zamara 18:42, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

We have IP disabling abilities, and we use them. But apparently they have IPs to burn. [shrug] -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 23:04, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Adding Content

Hey buddy. If you notice some incomplete pages for the Rakash Library, its because I'm in the process of adding the content to the 'pedia --Alexii 14:01, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Going through the futurepast site and adding old information about the Ghost ship quest to the quest page. In the process of doing it all so don't fret about all the minor updates I'll be putting through. Contact me sometime on IM or my page and talk to me about how to correctly add any items/loot/treasure to the database that wasn't aready here, and how to flag ones that are here correctly if not already done. --Alexii 02:16, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I'll keep an eye out for any problems. No worries. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi^(talk) 02:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
