[edit] Welcome to the Zone Defenders!

Thanks for joining up with us, Timo 1. Right now the zone is pretty quiet but there's a few little trouble spots, and of course the Second Big Bash is rolling around Malton and is sure to stop in at some point. A couple of things : I noticed you joined our forums already, which is awesome but if you can make a post saying hello I can add you to the approved list. The other thing is simply please take the 'The' out of 'The Zone Defenders' as your group so our stats stay accurate.

We really appreciate the help. Where are you currently located? --Benigno ZDers SSZ 16:41, 27 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Need help?

From what others have put here and still having a little trouble getting your suggestion on there I'd like to offer my help with formating and getting it up there. Leave a message on my talk page if you want it. --Dipcup 00:33, 11 August 2007 (BST)

Well the first step to accepting my offer to help would be to learn to sign your comments so I don't scratch my head for a second wondering who left this message. Its really quiet easy you just put four tildes in a row like ~~~~ at the end of your comments. For basic information like this there is a block of text down near the bottom of your talk page with orangeish background that explains some of these things. Secondly I'm sure you noticed how quickly your suggestion was shot down. If you choose to resubmit a modified suggestion I would hold off until after you have a better understanding of game mechanics in general so you can see how it might affect the game as a whole and tweek things to make sure it doesn't unbalance the game or destroy game-play (not saying your specific suggestion did, but this is meant to be kinda general advice). Read through all the suggestion literature to figure out the rules and the best way to do things. I would also closely pay attention to other suggestions and figure out why some fail and others don't. Then when you think you have it all figured out instead of sending your suggestion strait into the meat grinder to see how well it fairs I'd also put it on a talk page so the general community(the same people that will be voting) can comment and give suggestions that are generally more constructive than those given in the voting process. I'm not sure if this wiki has a "how to edit stuff" page but wikipedia does here and that should help as well. If you have any questions or can't find the answer to something don't hesitate to ask and if I don't know(I'm new here too) I'll help you figure out where both of us can get the answer. --Dipcup 13:29, 11 August 2007 (BST)

[edit] Suggestions

Do you need some help making a suggestion? All you've got to do is copy the part in the white box (on the new page you created), then edit page and copy it there, adding the details of your new suggestion The preceding signed comment was added by boxy (talk • contribs) at 08:07 10 August 2007 (BST)

You must be trying to edit the template, rather than the actual page you created. Put the following text on your suggestion page, and change it to include your suggestion...
<noinclude>
{{Suggestion Navigation}}

{{TOCright}}
</noinclude>
===SugHead===

~~~~

'''Suggestion type'''
Skill, balance change, improvement, etc.

'''Suggestion scope'''
Who or what it applies to.

'''Suggestion description'''
Full description. Check spelling and be descriptive.

{{Subst:SuggestionVoting}}}
... hope this gets you started The preceding signed comment was added by boxy (talk • contribs) at 15:00 10 August 2007 (BST)


It might be a good idea to finish a suggestion before beginning the procedure of submitting it; that way, you can submit it in only a minute or so, with copy/paste, so that the suggestion page won't be left blank for any major period of time. Just an idea, but one that might be useful. --Saluton 18:06, 10 August 2007 (BST)

[edit] Welcome

Hi Timo 1! As we can see, you made your first edits to this wiki not long ago. It's OK to be new, and we encourage new blood to join and enrich our community. At the same time, we understand that no one is a perfect wiki editor straight off the bat, and, just in case you get stuck, here're some useful tips to help you out. Please take the time to read them.

General Editing
  • Never delete someone else's edits, comments, responses, etc. off community pages. To do so is considered vandalism.
  • If you write a comment it's useful to sign it so that other editors will know who wrote it. You can write "~~~~" at the end of your comment to sign it, or there's this button Image:button_sig.png on the top of the edit page that will sign for you if you want.
  • You may want to know how your edits will look before they have been saved, to make sure that nothing is wrong. Use the "Preview" button before the "Save" button - it's your friend!
  • If you're slow in your editing and there's an editing conflict, you might not understand the error that you get. The easiest way to overcome the edit conflict is to copy whatever you have been writing, go back with your browser, and then re-enter the edit page so that you can add your edits without deleting those made before yours.
  • The wiki is a collaborative project, please do your best to work well with fellow editors.

Further help for editing the wiki can be found on the Help page.

Project Mentor

Project Mentor has been set up to allow new wiki users to have a more experienced wiki veteran mentor them for the first few weeks. Visit its page for more information!

Your User Page

One of the great things about the wiki is that every user can have his or her own user page! These pages are located in the User: namespace — in other words, they all begin with "User:" (yours is User:Timo 1). The appropriate place to write about yourself or your characters is on your user page, or a subpage of that page (e.g., User:Timo 1/Your Character's Name). Please don't create pages about yourself outside the User: namespace. Those pages will be moved into subpages of your user page, and the original speedily deleted. If you want something to be deleted, use the speedy deletion page; that's why Criterion 7 was made.

User Talk Pages

Every user has a talk page, found by clicking the "discussion" link at the top of his or her user page, or by going directly to it (yours would be User talk:Timo 1). If you have a question for someone, or want to say something to him or her, his or her user talk page is the place.

However, many users on the wiki have established specific guidelines for how their user talk pages are to be treated — where new comments should go, how they should be written, what is or is not okay to talk about, etc. Be sure to look for guidelines on the talk page before you leave a comment.

If you don't see any guidelines specified, the assumption is that you should place your comment at the bottom of the talk page, under a level 2 heading. This can be accomplished by clicking the "+" link next to the "edit" tab at the top of the talk page, or by manually typing in your message in this format:

==Message title==

Your message goes here

When replying to a comment already laid on the page, remember to indent it correctly: do it by inserting as many colons plus one to the message you're replying to at the begining of your message, like this:

==Message title==

Your message

:User's reply

::Your reply
The Suggestions Page

We know that as a new user, you want to share your ideas with us. But a community as big as ours has already seen all kind of suggestions, and it's possible that we've already seen something very similar to the ideas you have. Follow these simple guidelines to make sure that your suggestion gets the respect that it deserves:

  • We strongly recommend that you read the Suggestions Dos and Do Nots and the Frequently Suggested Ideas pages so that you will have an idea of what kind of suggestions are likely to be accepted and what kind are ridiculous in the eyes of the community. The pages might look long and time-consuming to read, but you will find them entertaining and helpful.
  • You might also want to look at the Previous Days Suggestions. These contain a record of all previous suggestions. Use the search function in your browser to search for keywords relating to the suggestion you want to make.
  • It may be helpful to wait a few days to get a feel for the wiki and the other users before subjecting your idea to any possible criticism. If you're unsure, the Suggestions Discussion page is good neutral territory to suggest, gather feedback, and refine your idea before officially submitting it.
  • Write your suggestion according to these steps. If it looks too complicated for you, ask for help.
  • You can't modify a suggestion that you've written once it has been posted on the Suggestions page. You can withdraw and resubmit it with changes later, but only do that if people liked your original suggestion while requesting changes, not if it was Spaminated.
  • If you get stuck at ANY point in writing your suggestion, ask for help. There's no shame in being new and after a few times, you'll get the hang of it.

Remember: These guidelines may look difficult to learn and follow, but they're mainly just common sense! Think about what you're going to say or do before you do it! If you don't make an effort to do so, then why would others have the obligation to be nice to you? Feel free to ask any Project Welcome member if you need help, that's our purpose anyways!

If you want to delete this text, just delete the {{Welcomenewbie}} line from your talk page. Remember that you can always have access to these tips on the Project Welcome/Welcomenewbie page. --KamdenM|W|T|H 04:45, 13 July 2007 (BST)

[edit] Signing comments/votes

Please remember to sign your comments and votes by using 4 tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comment. It automatically includes your signature and a timestamp. Read the above Welcome Newbie template for nore information on how we do things around this wiki. It looks intimidating but it's surprisingly easy to understand :). 'arm. 10:36, 27 July 2007 (BST)

[edit] Suggestion

I think you forgot to edit the red text or something like that on your hunter suggestion... It's generally not a good idea to leave stuff like that lying about, try putting it together in a word processor before submitting it.--Labine50 MHG|MEMS 22:38, 10 August 2007 (BST)
