User talk:Kytti khat/18 February 2009

UotM
Your summary in your recent edit, that's not directed to me by any chance and discussing the User of the Month on the Clan Chat is it? I hope not :S 20:13, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Asking for votes, why? People are too hooked up on recognition. I clearly voted for Degenret01, and I persoanlly think he deserves it, which is why I tied it up. Thanks for clearing that up, and by PM, I thought you meant a private message sent in game. X[) 20:31, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Dry mud can be used to build houses and foundations. It is more important to watch the mud, I agree. 20:51, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Categories and linking to it
Hey kytti khat
 * Do we have a wiki standard as to what links to categories?. I just made Category:Dagannoth_hide and linked the circular, flattened, etc. etc. to it. But what about Waterbirth Island? Would that be applicable? Or the quests that relate to the Dagannoth? Thanks, --Degenret01 22:57, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

I feel kind of stupid for asking this, but how do you add those templates of similar things to the bottom of pages. Where –  is used as on the dragon Blue_dragon pages, and tannable hides Blue_dragonhide. Thanks again, --Degenret01 02:13, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * A fresh new day and my brain is reenergized, and I figured it out. One less dumb question for you to deal with.--Degenret01 14:07, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

#ifexist and wanted pages
Please forgive me, but i really dont want to type this out again. Please see, http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Uberfuzzy#Transcluded_templates --Uberfuzzy 00:08, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Now for the next question, is mw open source? which if true naturally leads to the tertiary, how friendly are the kind folks there to community feedback? 00:17, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * This could be a giant waste of time, but I do believe what you are looking for is open source. More information at Template_talk:Tnavbar. Hope that helps a bit. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  06:15, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Lucky me i have oodles of time to waste. No seriously since it's a no rush to fix issue, i'm sure it will be fixed, maybe not in normal software development time frames, but isn't that the nature of open source. 06:19, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

RuneScape_talk:ProblemReports/17455
I still can't seem to figure out what the problem even is. The code that's there is working just fine. It's doing what it's meant to do. If a discussion page exists, it shows a (working) link to it. If the discussion page does not exist for the template, it doesn't show it. Template:Hunter gear, the example used in the problem report, works just fine. 00:53, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Your House Layout
Hi. I checked out your house plan, and I have to say that I love the idea of having an entrance with two decorations on either side of it. Can I...uh, copy it? If you want, I'll give you credit both on my userpage and if anyone says, "Nice house" in-game. 13:40, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Sweet, thanks. I was just making sure. And the members of Jagex are truly "Java Gaming Experts."  17:58, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

PointyBot
Hiya, just a quick drive-by edit to respond to User_talk:PointyBot (from last year!). The PointyBot source code is up on CodePlex (http://www.codeplex.com/wikibot) - it needs Visual Basic.Net (the Express version is a free download from Microsoft) and Excel 2007 (sadly, not free). It's a bit of a dead project for me (as if you hadn't already guessed) but if anyone wants to try and bring it back to life I can try and help them if they leave a message on my talk page. Initial response might be slow to though as I only come back every now and them to check talk-page messages... Pointy 21:42, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I can read java and probably port *from* it, but I can't *write* it so I wouldn't be able to help directly with porting the code. I could help with some of the gotchas I found while writing the bot lib in the first place, and probably troubleshoot any problems you find along the way. I can also run the existing bot again as a one-off to refresh the charts if you think that might help drum up some support from other wiki-ers. Pointy 22:20, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Found it
bleh...found problem. Seems like my ISP wants to be stupid and cause up to five min delays for teleport/etc. when storms are in area. --Eternalseed 18:05, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Exchange item non-exchange prices

UOTM Proposal
On the talk page you mentioned supporting getting rid of it. The proposal is up RuneScape:Yew_Grove.--Degenret01 03:15, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Cropping GIFs
Hi Kytti! What program do you use for cropping my animated GIFs? It would be usefull that I can do it myself ^^--. 15:23, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Wiki Cache?
Have you been experiencing problems with image uploads too? I have for the last day as well. I have written a note to Sannse with some concerns... 07:34, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Same with my replacement images with ones that have transparency...there is a detailed explanation on Sannse' talk page about my concerns...if you wish to contribute to it. 09:54, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I would be more then happy to contribute to the report. How do I do that? I have never done one before and am not sure how. Sannse has also responded to my plea. She says the server has been experiencing some difficulties, but should be fixed now but it would appear it has not. Thanks! 02:51, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I have found the page, but there is no way for me to edit the report, I do not have an Edit Page option. The only input available to me is a separate talk page for comments, which I feel is pointless as they are already aware of my concerns. Regardless, I think Sannse with have some kind of staff involvement in this problem, so the input on her page I left will be considered. Thanks for the help though ;) 03:02, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
 * There is a link for comments on the problem... *Slaps head* 03:09, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

#ifexist problem
Hi Kytti,

I've been reading about the #ifexist problem not going to be fixed anytime in the near future. Would you be adverse to either removing the talk link from the Tnavbar template, or creating the talk pages as they appear on the wanted pages list? What do you think is the best option?

P.S. I'm impressed with the 99 farming, I thought my 83 farming was good!

14:22, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Hurston, we have a problem, that made me chuckle :) If it's written in C or C++, I may be able to help with the crystal gazing. Are you a programmer as well? 11:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Vandal
It's a bot, you need to to protect the site! 04:28, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Use Special:Protectsite to protect the site. 12:53, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * As far as rollbacks from an entire user, I think that may be a helper/staff tool as I heard Uber did it last night for some. However, if it exists for us, I am not sure of it. Something tells me we wouldn't be able to do that though. I'm afraid we're stuck with hours of work. =\ Good job on reverting it all though. =D 21:13, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well if you put it that way, yeah I'm sure a script can be created to do so. Unfortunately I'm not savvy enough for something like that. You might contact Uber, I know he's a geek and would be willing to assist. It would be nice to have a counter-vandal bot around, or at least a program to do as you mention. 21:17, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I do believe Uberfuzzy did use a Vandal Revert Bot in our latest string of attacks. He reverted about a hundred pages in about 4 minutes...he possilby has the code you need. 21:21, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Yew Grove
Can you give me more of an example of what you're referring to in your YG post? 14:52, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, I'll throw in my 55 cents to the kitty...ow...bad pun, sorry. Thanks. And no...I figured you were an air-sign. Thanks, though for clarification. 20:51, 5 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Erm...throw in my change to the kitty. I was trying to be cute. --Eternalseed 20:57, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Wanteds
Any way to get rid of the template talk wanteds?‎Atlandy 02:24, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
