User talk:Dreadnought

Welcome! If you have any questions, ask on my talk page or in the forums. If you're planning to edit this wiki, you should read the page on the style of writing used here. Vimescarrot 14:17, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Magic exp

 * Hey will you do the exp in the Magic articles like "'spell' gives 'exp' Magic experience."? please, I have done that on some articles but I have to leave for tonight. I think all the magic articles should be like that now, not just the ones you are helpfully writing up right now. Megalodon99 02:29, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Dreadnought 02:54, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah! Sure! I've been doing that cause i noticed i didn't have enough info... I won't be able to add much more tonight though because i have school tomorrow...and i havent finished my summer homework!!!! AHHHH

Style
It says in RuneScape:Style that you should replace all instances of "you" with "the player". If you haven't read this I suggest you read it, and if you have I'm just reminding you. You wrote "you" in the gem rock article. Vimescarrot 08:32, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Spec
Hey! I see that you're adding information on special attacks to the dragon weapon pages. When you're doing this, could you please use the following style:  Being a dragon weapon, the dragon ... has a special attack, ..., which ...,using ... of a player's special attack energy.  Also remember that we never use "you" or "your" in an article. Thanks! -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  03:17, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

!!! Okay, sure i'll fix up the style...I keep forgetting about not using you.. Dreadnought 03:21, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Please add image!
When you are making item infoboxes and their is no image, just say "image=". That way, "Please add image!" will be automatically added and their will be a link to the upload page. However, when you add "Please add image!", this feature doesn't occur. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  20:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Sweet~

Typo
Next to the word "Sandbox" on your User page, there is a(n) |. Was this intentional?--Death motor 22:31, 17 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hmm...Nope lol..Dreadnought 04:34, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Private messages in-game
Please don't message me in game unless it's really important. I know I sound like the "bad guy" here, but I get constantly harassed in-game from random people. If you want to contact me, feel free to post it on User talk:Cool Spy0. Cool Spy0 02:49, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Bored
Moo! Dreadnought 01:51, 6 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Of course! Seems as though I'm as bored as you are at the moment :D Melvnatic 00:00, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Sysop
You now have sysop rights!!! This means that you can rollback easier, block users, protect pages and do a few other things. Some notes
 * Do keep an eye on recent changes, watching for potential vandalism attacks
 * If you are going to block someone, please show restraint - a lot of people use shared IP addresses, so a block for a day is normally best. Vandals get bored easily, but we need contributors from everywhere =)
 * Add the CVU page to your watchlist. If another non-sysop notices vandalism, and updates that page, you should see it and deal appropriately with whoever's causing the damage.
 * Finally, keep up the good work - we still need lots of content!! And congratulations again on being sysoped.
 * Congratulations. --Whiplash 18:13, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh cool, yay! Dreadnought 01:00, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

About Worshiping a Cow...
How is it the lord of India?--Whiplash 22:30, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

ANSWER ME! Lol. --◙▲╛Whiplash◙▲╛ 22:31, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

It's not the lord of India. Dreadnought 22:38, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

SRO
Eh, it's OK. Very confusing, very different, but not bad at all. It has taken away from my RS time though, and lags alot, and sometimes randomly kicks you off the server once you get in (which is impossible at high-traffic times). Of course, I'm still a noob (equivalent of level 15 on RS I guess) so there's much I haven't experienced by a fraction of the game. If you ever do play, I'd suggest the Venice server since I use it, and theres a guild called the RuneScapians (which I can't join because I'm such a noob!).

RE: Deleting updates
Yeah, I took a break cause the wiki was interfering with schoolwork. Decided I'd drop in and help out a bit. If you want a list of things to be deleted, go here and, once you click on the link, make sure you go to the redirect page and not the actual article. If you do choose to help, please start from the bottom so we don't fight over redirects :P. Also, make sure you get both in a double redirect. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  03:21, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, thats how it goes. Thanks for the help! -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  03:28, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the help! I'm going to fix the Websites update page, and then I'm going to start working on that. You did those awfully fast! -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  03:51, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I just did Website updates. YOu can go here and get started. Thanks! -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  03:54, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my bad. Here. Just finished customer support, too. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  04:01, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Lol. Well, all the pages have been fixed, all that's is left is deleting redirects. As for easier communications, I'm rarely on RS or my screen name, so this is the most effecient and reliable way. Sorry. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  04:19, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Same as my wiki name, except an added 66: couchpotato6699. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  04:23, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Redundant categories
I saw you were adding Location category to some pages. I don't know if you knew this, but I spent a long time taking the location category off a lot of pages. It is redundant when there is a more specific category; for example, if you have Melzar's Maze, it is in the buildings and dungeons categories which are both subcategories of location, so adding it to locations again is redundant. Just thought you should be aware of that. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  05:12, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Deleting
Please be careful what you delete! You deleted, which is quite important! You know the little icon in your browser bar that is next to the url? That was Favicon.ico, and now I'm having problems restoring it. Just please be careful, kay? -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  06:06, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry
I have changed the image on my sig, sorry about stealing  your's   Mega lodon  99     ( Talk ) 12:35, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Somebody stole my Ipod =(
Ok, well I finished my Photoshop. Spliced 3 images together and added a nice pic of an Ipod =) .--Death motor 03:13, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Nice! I'll add it to the page.[[Image:Purple party hat.PNG|16px]] Dreadnought talk 03:59, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Good work!
Hey, just popping by to say Good Work! since I've been watching Recent Changes, and saw you editing a lot. :) Oddlyoko 04:55, 18 November 2006 (UTC)


 * That's a lot of work. :S I'm about to start work on reorganizing the Updates stuffs, so that might fill up Recent Changes. Think i should bot-flag myself for the time being? Oddlyoko 05:00, 18 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Means you set a flag on a user so their edits are hidden from Recent Changes. Oddlyoko 05:08, 18 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Admittedly, that last chunk wasn't very profitable, but the aim was to (a) delete the Update: pages that are just lists of updates, and (b) categorize the updates into just that, categories. (a) was accomplished, (b) was, to a far lesser extent.. all I did was "rename" the category the articles were in. I wish I could have just moved the category, but sadly, that's not possible...

Re: You'll live to be old!
Haha, you saw that, did you? Good old age. :D Oddlyoko 08:06, 18 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Cough. I didn't know that. :S thanks, I was wondering who this david sam guy on my friends list was... XD Oddlyoko 08:11, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Grapple
I thought I told you to update over the previous image version instead of uploading a new version under a new name? :S Oddlyoko 08:15, 18 November 2006 (UTC)


 * I didn't know you had uploaded it already. ;D It's ok, I'm just prodding you. :D Oddlyoko 17:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Mithril Pickaxe
Just want to let you know, that wasn't vandalism, that was just Being Bold (wikipedia reference). It's not so obvious why the + would be in front of a zero at first, you know? ;D Just making sure you're not going to jump at his throat. Oddlyoko 06:58, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

World 66 Laws
My fault, I was under the impression world 66 was a free-to-play server. Oddlyoko 16:53, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Re:Bored
Yeah, I sometimes get that way, next I will probably try to get crafting up by killing cows (using range and training bow again), tanning hides, and crafting them. woot! lol (I have not even done the Prince quest yet.) boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring...  Mega lodon  99     ( Talk ) 01:17, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

The only probem with buying a better bow is that I have to buy mroe arrows, and I'm worried I may not get enough. Thanks for the tip though. I think I will do that.  Mega lodon  99     ( Talk ) 01:20, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

On Swiftswitch
You deleted the article on SS that I made in passing yesterday, mentioning its questionable legality.

Rule 7

"You must not attempt to use other programs (e.g. bots, macros or autominers) in conjunction with our games to give yourself an unfair advantage at the game. You also may not circumvent any of our mechanisms designed to log out inactive users automatically."

At one point in time (way back) the creator of swiftswitch was told the cilent was illegal for two reasons by jagex, one because if a world was full it would still load the world, and two because it did not show the advertisements of f2p players. If you downloaded any version in the past number of months, you would see that both of those legality problems were taken care of. Now SS is comparable to using firefox with a highscores tab open, a bookmarks toolbar full of helpful runescape links, and chatzilla. The difference is that SS is much more convenient. Because SS has such a large fanbase (nearly 1m downloads), is the currently largest used client (legal or not), and has led to the rise of IRC in runescape (most notably in clans), I think it deserves at least a mention in a Runescape Wiki, if not more.
