Contact with the developer?

is there any way to get in Contact with the developer? maybe I just didn't look it the right places but I cant find anyway(as to why I need to talk to the developer I would prefer not to say unless its entirely necessary)

You can get in touch with the game's developer on his talk page. Though if you have a suggestion for a change to the game, it's better to use the wiki's suggestion system, and for bugs there is the bug reports page. Hope this helps. --Toejam 19:43, 6 August 2008 (BST)

Group Stats Listing

hey, how does a group get listed on the stats page? We have 15 active members, but aren't listed... shoot me a line Jack S13 T! PC 14:24, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Should be automatic. If you can provide the links to all 15 I can probably point out the problem. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:12, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Wiki chat?

I play many app games with the ability to chat on their wiki...why doesn't this wiki have a chat link? the link would look like this http://urbandead.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Chat Son of Sin 23:49, 28 May 2013 (BST)

That's a feature of some wiki software (.e.g the custom wiki software that Wikia uses, I believe), but MediaWiki, which is what this wiki is built on, doesn't have chatting as a built in feature. Most of us use NexusWar IRC to chat since it's easy to do and can be linked just as easily (that link will prompt you to enter a username and then take you to Big Bash 4's IRC channel so that you can chat with us, for instance). For wiki related stuff, most of the chatting happens in the #udwiki channel. Aichon 03:40, 29 May 2013 (BST)

Well, to be fair, #udwiki doesn't get used a whole lot, since the wiki has a lot less drama going on these days.
