==Script installs==
Hi ! I'm going to sound quite noobish and feeling silly asking for this simple question but here goes anyway : I'm using Chrome and picked up Tampermonkey. However, ALL the links to your scripts give me a "page not found". Am I missing something ? --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 15:44, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:Nope, not noobish at all. Apparently I misconfigured my DNS settings when moving web hosts recently, since it looks like anything that links to '''www.'''aichon.com is broken, but anything linking to aichon.com is fine. I'll update the links on the userscript page in a moment to drop the www, which should fix the issue for you, and then I'll try putting together a more permanent fix on the server side of things so that others don't run into this problem with any old links that may still be out there. Thanks for cluing me in! {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:10, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::Awesome, I'm not insane! Was getting there though looking around to see if I could figure this out but yeah, only explanation out there was the DNS. Thank you! --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 16:18, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::Sure thing! Funnily enough, I specifically remember testing my userscript links after I moved everything over to the new host and had let DNS settle. What I forgot, however, is that I rolled my DNS changes back for a few days when I ran into some unexpected issues. Apparently after I dealt with the issues and pushed the "corrected" DNS changes through again, I wasn't quite as thorough as I should have been in my testing, so I didn't notice that those links were broken. *headslap* {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 16:27, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::::lol Hey I'm just glad you're around. We'll just keep this our little secret *giggles* --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 16:41, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::::Aichon, there is no access to the profile link on players for the Rogues Gallery, this is what I get : This site can’t be reachedrg.urbandead.net’s server DNS address could not be found. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 18:06, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::::::Yeah, I'm afraid the Rogue's Gallery has been defunct for a year or two, so I'm afraid that button no longer works. So far as I'm aware, no one has set up a new iteration on the Rogue's Gallery idea for me to link to, and setting up my own Rogue's Gallery is definitely not something I plan to do. I probably should remove that button, honestly, but it just never occurred to me before. >_> {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:26, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:Are you saying that there is no keeping track of Pkers and BHers anymore ? No list ? Man I was gone way too long... While you're here, may I bug you for something else ? How do I get my group active and dedicated Suburb ? Do I HAVE to have 10+ in my crew ? I'm all full of questions today... nice to be back though :) --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 18:32, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::Afraid so. You might want to check in with the folks over at [http://s15.zetaboards.com/NecroConnect/index/ NecroConnect], since if there is a Rogue's Gallery alternative, I'm guessing they'll be aware of it and using it.
::As far as groups being active and whatnot, I'm not quite following the question. The only thing that having 10+ members gets you is that the game lists your group on the stats page. Otherwise, you don't need X members for anything. If you'd like to add your group to a suburb's group listing, there should be an "edit group listing" link above the list, but I'm not sure if that's what you were asking, so I apologize if I didn't provide a useful answer. Let me know and I'll try again. :) {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:38, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::Yes I basically just want to add my group to the listing. ENVY is still listed under survivor groups though but I did get the message in my group talk that we were to be tossed (Because your group hasn't responded within a month, your suburb and radio listings have been removed. Feel free to relist your group. Bob Moncrief MTT•W! 03:12, 26 November 2013 (UTC)) Does that mean that ENVY still lives but doesn't have a suburb affiliated ? And how do I do that ? And ok, I'm in NecroConnect already. I'll check it out. --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 18:55, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::::Oh, yeah, there's a periodic (every few years) cleanup of the suburb group listings, just to clean out the inactive groups that no longer exist. It's a simple janitorial task here on the wiki, but it doesn't actually mean anything, other than that we're trying to keep information up to date so that the wiki reflects reality in the game. As Bob said, you are welcome to re-add your group to the listings for your suburb and the [[Radio]]. There are no membership requirements or whatnot that you need to worry about. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:00, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::::That's the problem, I listed my radio freq back but no idea how to list active suburb --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 19:02, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::::::Gotcha. To add your group to a listing, just go to the suburb where you'd like it listed (e.g. [[Richmond Hills]]), look at the right side of the suburb where you'll see the groups listed, and then click the "edit group listing" link right above the list. It looks like your group was in Richmond Hills when [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Template:Richmond_Hills_Groups&diff=next&oldid=2118780 Bob removed ENVY from the listing back in 2013], so I've gone ahead and re-added ENVY to the [[Template:Richmond_Hills_Groups|Richmond Hills' listing]]. If you run into any problems, let me know. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:39, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::::::You are such a sweetheart, thank you! I added us to Havercroft as well as we work both subs. You've been most helpful and its truly appreciated. This should be all for today lol --[[User:Murderess|Murderess]] ([[User talk:Murderess|talk]]) 19:50, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::Hi! Yes, NecroConnect maintains a Bounty Hunter section including a Bounty Board, but it's all done manually (I was never on Rogue's Gallery back in the day — was it done manually too?) You can report PKings and bounty hunting there and the staff (including myself!) keeps it updated. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 20:49, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
::::With the RG, humans entered all the data, but the pages themselves were generated programmatically from the data the moderators had entered. It'd show screenshots, claims for and against, comments, links, etc.. Very useful, especially since it meant I could programmatically generate a link to a page for any arbitrary character, given that the links all followed the same pattern and it had a default page for any characters who had no information (i.e. no 404s). {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 20:54, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
:::::Ah yeah, the NC one is just a set of lists without subpages. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 21:12, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

== Find user email address question ==
 
Hey Aichon!
 
A user contacted me asking if there's a way to find out what email address is associated with his wiki account. I tried emailing him via the wiki, but the copy of the email I received didn't list his address. He doesn't know what address it is and therefore can't reset his password (his account is very old).
 
Thanks! {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 18:26, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
:Sheesh. *scratches head* Uhh, I can't really think of any way to do that, sadly. Kevan could probably use his backend access to check the database entry directly, but from the front-end of the wiki software, I don't know of any way that 'crats and sysops can see anything relevant. All we have access to that a normal user doesn't is checkuser, which doesn't give us anything useful here. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:48, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Please be aware of the following guidelines before posting here.
