Changes: Forum:Avatars and the Wiki World

Forums: Yew Grove > Avatars and the Wiki World

So, recently there has been a lot of talk surrounding avatars, particularly the glitch which appears to be a problem in World 39. Not being an avatar warden, I am not entire aware of the exact glitch, but I have heard from Liquidhelium that it is only a problem on the current wiki home world.

People are constantly asking for avatars and who has them out, and why they aren't in the avatar pool in the citadel. Many avatar wardens are not replying to this question, and it is likely that they don't have them out and they are not in the pool because there are glitches.

To solve this problem, avatar wardens (and admins who are not wardens, as not all clan members know who are wardens) need to say 'no' when they don't have an avatar out, or 'I'm not a warden' if people ask.

What I am proposing is a - what should be temporary - shift in the official Wiki world to a different world to try get around the avatar glitch until the glitch is fixed. This shouldn't be a big problem, and wouldn't take more than 30 seconds of effort per user (to change their favourite world).

Discuss both points made below.

Comment The glitch (if I am not mistaken) is when the warden summons the avatar on the citadel, but then leaves to the main world, the avatar doesn't appear. When this happens, the avatar doesn't reappear at the pool (supposedly until the avatars time limit runs out). Other than that, I've obviously experienced said glitch, but I've also taken successfully taken the avatar out to W39 a few days after experiencing it. I'm not sure if I want to support or oppose moving the world temporarily, over a silly glitch that happens every now and then, so Neutral until I am convinced otherwise. https://i.imgur.com/WgvxeSr.png - https://i.imgur.com/frouZAC.png 03:43, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
