Celestial catalytic staff conflict
User:Fizzyliquid has been editing the celestial catalytic staff article in what I consider to be an improper fashion. While you can check the talk page for some history on our argument, it boils down to this: He thinks that strong magic potions boost Magic damage by 3% per level instead of 1%, and that therefore the maximum hit of Fire Surge with a CCS and strong magic potion is 546. I am a mage in Daemonheim with a CCS, and I've never hit anything close to this, so I asked him several times to produce proof (while reverting his edits to the article in the meantime). After repeatedly stating that he had personally witnessed hits up to 440 (the calculated max hit is 434), he posted a screenshot of himself hitting 438 with Fire Surge. Despite that this is a very small amount higher than the standing maximum hit, he insists that magic potions boost by 3% per level. We've gone back and forth on the article a few times, and now he's removed the max hit paragraph altogether.

Rather than fuel an edit war, I'd like some conflict resolution, and this is the only place I can think of at which to post it. What does someone else think that we should do about the max hit information in the article? -- 05:09, April 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * See the Potions, Spells and Runes update on 17 November 2009. Going by that I'd have to aggree with Fizzyliquid. 09:45, April 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * There's nothing stopping Jagex messing around with the game's physics in Daemonheim. They already do it in several other places. Also, while I haven't tested this a lot, I haven't seen fire surge hit nearly as high as I expect for 3% per level while on strong magic potions. I'll see if I can get some test data.
 * As a final note, the max hit formula is by no means 100% and is known to be off by up to 10 life points in either direction. 14:41, April 16, 2011 (UTC)

Calling all JS monkeys!
The taskbar, you know, that brown floating bar at the bottom of your screen, has expanding menus on it naturally. I'm wondering if it is possible to replicate those, and if it is, can I have the code? Thanks. 06:49, May 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not a JS guy, but I suggest you don't do that. Ryan told me a quite a few months ago that dropdown bars/expanding menus using JS will increase page loading times by a significant margin, don't take my word for this, probably best to check with a coder. 06:52, May 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Brown floating bar? If you're talking about the one inside RS, which isn't JS, tempering with that is against RS rules. I'm not sure what other brown bars there are. 18:52, May 5, 2011 (UTC)

That bar. 04:52, May 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see, I started using monobook after they removed that other skin, because I consider the new Wikia-skin to be wasting width. It's probably something with onHover events. 19:40, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

Which program to use to record music tracks & instructions?
As title says, can someone explain to me which program should I use to record music tracks, plus instructions to do it correctly? Thanks. -- 17:13, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * You can use Audacity, I'll write a guide shortly. 22:10, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
