{{BurbTalkArchive}}
Please discuss the [[New Danversbank Barricade Plan]] that was re-suggested after editation by the [[DAM]] here.--[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 02:50, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
:I've added a note to the news section on the main page, and contacted all the groups in the suburb.
:That said, [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Polling is not a substitute for discussion|Polling is not a substitute for discussion]]. This should have been discussed more first. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 07:12, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

# As Mulligan. This plan is quite foolish. (I should also note that I'm as newbie friendly as they get, so my opposition should make a point right there.) --{{User:Violet B/sig}} 19:11, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

# Anthor - Longtime DRRP member and resident. The new plan will end up with lot more people eaten, VSB+2 barricades are very easy for the Zeds to drop, they should be used with caution. --[[User:Anthor|Anthor]] 20:54, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
# Longtime resident of the area. 1) This plan is, as noted by another commentator, LESS friendly to newbies - it cuts off access to valuable XP-gaining resources such as FAKs (and, in all likelihood, to fireaxes, since one fire station is far more likely to be overbarricaded than two). What good are a dozen more safehouses if you keep dying of infection for lack of FAKs? 2) Freerunning is a high-priority skill that survivors should be acquiring within their first week of gameplay. Given that local residents are very good about respecting the current barricade plan, ten non-TRP VSB buildings is more than enough to house any influx of new players. 3) If new players are regularly being trapped on the street, it would be far better for the suburb to simply tag links to the (current) barricade plan and/or directions to entry points outside. --[[User:Marion Wells|Marion Wells]] 00:15, 29 March 2009 (UTC)


==Page Overhaul==

|c3=12:39, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
I have split the suburb groups into active and inactive. While the [[Scarletwood Police Department]] is still presumed active, [[The Police Academy]] is no longer housed in Sleway Row PD. I have also added Angerstein Park as a revive point. See the [[DRRP]] page under "Public Services" for more details. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 19:09, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

}}
Short-wave radio icon has been added. I couldn't get it to fit using the basic template, so I copied the code from another group page and made some adjustments. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 18:22, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 
The [[Danversbank Brigands]] have been moved to the inactive groups section. No one has seen or heard from them in at least a month. A message was left on their talk page but I received no response. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 17:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 
==Suggestion to the Harmanz==
 
Maybe make a note that your suburb is the only one with two mobile phone masts (the functional one at the Barrow Building and the non-functional one at the Poulet Museum)? --[[User:ZuluDeacon|ZuluDeacon]] 19:21, 10 April 2007 (BST)
 
:Good idea, ZD. What I'd really like to do is see if the one at Poulet ''works''. If by some miracle it does we will have a bonafide landmark. We will try this if we ever stop being assassinated and/or eaten. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 22:53, 12 April 2007 (BST)
 
::Sadly it seems the mast on Poulet does not work! Poulet is currently powered and Barrow is not but I get no signal on my Mobile phone. --[[User:Shayd|Shayd]] 17:03, 16 May 2007 (BST)
 
== Tidying Up The Page ==
 
I'm removing the inactive groups section - most of the links are dead thanks to the new wiki Speedy Delete policy. Anyone annoyed at this can comment here and if the groups become active again we can move them to the relevant section. [[User:R33F3RM4N|R33F3RM4N]] 13:18, 1 July 2007 (BST)
 
== [[Yong An Bang]] ==
 
I'm taking them off the active group list for now. It's been several months since we've heard from David. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 22:40, 19 October 2007 (BST)
 
== Suburb Groups ==
 
I removed [[Central Medical Services]] and the [[Undeadites]] from the suburb group list. CMS is no longer active in Danversbank and the Undeadites are a roving zombie group, per their own wiki. I left a message on both talk pages just in case. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 20:14, 22 May 2008 (BST)
 
== Congrats. ==
 
Having trawled through most of the suburb pages, can I say danversbank is by far the most well maintained. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 10:44, 29 July 2008 (BST)
:We try. Thanks for noticing. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 00:15, 2 August 2008 (BST)
 
== New Barricade Policy ==
 
The [[Danversbank Armed Militia|DAM]] have changed the barricade plan for [[Danversbank]] and archived the old one by the [[DRRP]]. --[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 04:46, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
:Are you smoking crack? --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 18:56, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 
===To the DRRP===
If you have any problems or complaints with this please just contact us on our group page or here and I am sure we can
work a compromise out between the two plans. The old one had to many EHB buildings in our opinion and we changed a lot
of them to VSB to make the suburb more accesible to newer players. Since zombie presence is light we don't need to
worry about some big break in against us.--[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 04:45, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
:I feel the need to say this again: Are you smoking crack? --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 18:56, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
::Nope I'm more of a pot head, joke. Anyway is this new plan ok with you guys?--[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 04:21, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
:::Let me get this straight, you change the ''accepted'' barricade plan for a suburb without first consulting '''any''' of the local groups, and then give some half-assed reasoning when you're caught being an idiot.--{{User:Drawde/Sig}} 20:40, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
::::It has some good reasoning behind it, Danversbank is a very safe suburb and I see people sleeping outside everyday. We don't need to make a giant EHB mess, we should have much more VSB barricaded buildings to make this suburb more open access to the newer players.--[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 22:44, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
:::::Buddy, I know you're new and likely a youngster, so I'll try not to be too harsh. The DRRP have been in Danversbank for almost three years. You don't just waltz in and change our RPs (you were warned about that), tag over our tags, and change our bloody barricade plan. As for your new cade plan, you'll understand why designating '''36 out of 49''' buildings as entry points is an awful idea once you've played the game for a little bit. What I'm trying to say is that all your changes are going to be reversed as soon as I can figure out the wiki rules on such things. In Reverie, I left a message on Cheese/Krazy Monkey's talk page, but if you could assist I'd appreciate it. I'm not looking for any drama here... --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 23:45, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
::::::Yes I understand you guys have been active here for a good amount of time, and let's not bring up the RP thing again, don't beat the dead horse. Anyway I am a firm believer in the idea of hiding among many VSB buildings then in one or two EHB buildings. Although I understand your reasoning and would be interested in making a mix between the plans. I already talked with Griff about it on the forums and I see where you guys are coming from. Please feel free to make some edits to the barricade policy page I made until we can both agree on a mix between ours.--[[User:Super Nweb|Super Nweb]] 06:51, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
::::::To answer Paddy's question, as far as I know, you can revert it, but if it becomes an edit conflict, then it will have to go to [[A/A|arbitration]]. Drawde (In Reverie) is right in saying that it's hardly good form to charge in and change a barricade plan (which needs near-universal support to even work in the first place,) without even bothering to consult the local groups in the area. Oh, and Super Nweb, if you are planning on making a new plan, test it out ''before'' putting it up as "official." {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 10:30, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Right. I reverted the change. I also reverted the change in which one of the RPs was deleted from the suburb map ''yet again''. Nweb, if you want to discuss the barricades, do it on the talk page of the one that's been in use for the last two years. As you can see, a lot of thought was put into it. That goes for RPs and any other long-standing policies in the burb. If you make any more edits like that last one I'll take it to Arbitration. Drawde and Link, I appreciate all the help. --[[User:Paddy Dignam|Paddy Dignam]] 17:10, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Great Suburb Group Massacre 2011

All suburb wiki pages are undergoing a clean up to remove inactive groups from the group listing (see here: this suburb's groups). If you are a group currently listed in this suburb, you will be contacted on your group's talk page within the next few days and asked to reply with a list of suburbs in which you are active. Groups that fail to reply within two weeks of being contacted will automatically be removed from the suburbs where they are listed.

We're posting here in the hopes that more groups will be aware of the clean up and can respond appropriately, since our team does not have the time nor the manpower to seek out every group in-game or track down its group members elsewhere on the wiki. If you know that some groups in your suburb do not check the wiki, please be a good neighbor and let them know that they NEED to check it for this, or else they will be unlisted in the near future.

The wiki members coordinating the cleanup will be using the table below to track their progress in communicating with the various groups. Please do not edit it if you are not involved with The Great Suburb Group Massacre 2011 team.

Please check your group's talk pages in the next few weeks, and respond promptly when you receive a communication from the GSGM2011 team. Thanks. †hana†ologis† (talk) 12:39, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your cooperation as we cleaned up the group listings for this suburb. Your help in reaching out to groups and replying to our requests has been much appreciated. -- †  talk ? f.u. 09:06, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
