| | Bob Moncrief sent me your way. I'm looking at building a bot to prowl the Danger Reports and mark them as "unknown" after several months. I was thinking of using the API to pull page data and parse it to determine when it was last signed. It would also do the same for the MPMs every 5 days and mark them as 'old' or 'unknown' as needed. Bob didn't want to just give me the link to the API, and I don't blame him, but to talk with you about this. {{unsigned|Reimannsum|19:37, 5 January 2019 (UTC)}} |

| | :Sorry, but bots were never my area. From what I know, there isn’t a link to give you. Once you actually build a bot, a ‘crat can assign it bot permissions, but otherwise there’s not much more to it than Googling around to see how to actually build it. If [[User:Revenant|Revenant]] is around, he can probably point you in the direction of folks who have experience making bots. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 23:41, 5 January 2019 (UTC) |

With my A/RE coming up in a few weeks, I've been thinking seriously about whether I intend to stick it out or if I should go to A/DM preemptively since no one likes it when sysops file for demotion right after making everyone go through an A/RE. My interest with the game has been waning recently, and I find that I more or less only really enjoy it when I'm in the middle of something bigger now, such as Blackmore 404, BB3, what I was hoping the Samhain Slaughter 4 would be, etc.. The wiki still interests me, but I'm not sure how long that will last if my interest in the game keeps decreasing. This is the same trend I've noticed in myself with past interests that have kept me entertained for a year or more at a time, and even if I don't quit right now, I think it's probably safe to say that my activity will be on the decline, in general, from here on out. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 01:00, 3 November 2010 (UTC) | |

| | Hello Aichon! There's a script of yours I would really like to use that I just can't seem to get working. I have had another player test too with the same problem. It's UD Same Character Highlighter. Sometimes with your scripts it's just a matter of changing the old references to http to https, but that didn't save me this time. Would be very handy to get Same Character Highlighter working for my group as we're zombies and it's a nightmare tracking who said what in-game as it just says "a zombie said". A full zombie name displayer would be even better, but I don't think there's a script for that? Thanks! {{unsigned|Ragno|10:59, 16 November 2023 (UTC)}} |
| :Ehh...I've always just kinda done odd janitorial work whenever it bothers me or the mood catches me. The whole sysop or not thing never really mattered to me. As I said in my nomination, you guys could expect "more of the same" from me once I was promoted, and the same should be true in reverse. I helped before I was a sysop, I helped while I was a sysop, and as long as I'm around, I'll still help after I'm a sysop. It just so happens that Spiderzed's linking to archived A/M cases on A/PM reminded me of the fact that I had started to clean them up awhile back but hadn't finished. Maybe I'll get around to finally cleaning up/making consistent A/VD as well before I leave. >_> {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:18, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
| | :Sorry for the super-slow response. It's been...a hectic few weeks. It's been a bit since I've been active in-game. Is Dumbwit or some other service that captures a snapshot of the game still around? If so, can you link me to a recent one that shows something like what you're talking about where a group of zombies is talking back and forth? Testing UD Same Character Highlighter was always tough because those messages disappear if you refresh the page, so I used to have a handful of iWits or Dumbwits around to help with testing it. |

| |
| :Honestly? I hate to be a spoilsport, but no, not really.
| |
| | |
| :Truth be told, I just don't ''get'' cons or the idea of meet ups with other people you meet in online games. The WoW guild I was with for 2-3 years had annual meetings that brought in dozens of attendees from around the globe, but I never went. And there's even a halfway decent [http://aggiecon.tamu.edu/ local con] that I've never bothered to attend. Those sorts of things just aren't my cup of tea. I don't know if it's the fact that I only know these people online and have no interest in putting a face behind the personality or voice (i.e. I'm shallow), that I'd be embarrassed in explaining to others why I'm gone for a few days (i.e. shallow again), or that I just can't be arsed (i.e. I'm lazy, which is my current theory, since it seems to hold true elsewhere), but the simple truth of the matter is that I've just never been interested in attending these sorts of things, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
| |
| | |
| :If someone is passing through College Station, I'd be happy to grab a meal with them and hang out for a few hours, but April is when I should be on the home stretch with my degree, so even if the desire were there to attend, the logistics wouldn't be great for me anyway. As far as organizing it goes, however, I do respect that others enjoy these sorts of things, and I do think that it'd be a great place to have it. Arlington isn't too far from DFW, and getting to Texas is a good middle-ground for both east- and west-coasters, as well as being a not-too-bad drive for people in the midwest that might want to do that. Plus, I think DFW has non-stop flights to Europe, which makes it a good spot to be at. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 03:51, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

| ==Dumb Question ==
| |
| So I am learning about tables and wiki-magic things but I think I am missing something. I am making a RRF semi-history page that shows some of the targets the horde has hit and where we have been. Its a half-parody on weather stations "Live StormTracker---Now with 3D SUPERDOPPPPPLLLLEEEER." I am calling it "ZomboTracker." For the target page, I jury-rigged Rooster's nav template so I can switch between maps of different buildings that we have nahmed nahmed over the years. Here is the [[User:MHSstaff/Projects/ZomboTrackerTemplate|'''template for that''']] and here is [[User:MHSstaff/Projects/ZomboTrackerAll|'''one of the subpages that calls it.''']].
| |
| | |
| The problem is in the template, the page space matches up with my image graphic on top (its a space holder for now, I'll probably redo it to match the theme). But in the subpage call, it does not extend all the way to the right to match up with the image; there is a lot of white space which makes me sad. Why is this and how would I fix it? -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 20:22, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :Hope you don't mind that I edited the template. Also, you'll need to edit the hospital page to make the image 600px instead of 700px, for reasons that should be obvious when you see it, and you might want to check whether you want to use Size or ImageSize as the name of your variable, since the template calls didn't match the template code (I switched the template to Size to match the template calls).
| |
| | |
| :Anyway, the problem was that you basically had one giant cell in the table you had. That cell had a white background, and you put three elements into it: the header image, the navigation table, and the radar image table. All of the space not taken up by one of those three elements would thus be white, the background color of the cell, rather than being black, which is what caused your problem. To fix it, I first, decided it was best if the header image had its own table row, rather than merely forcing the other elements to line wrap, so I bumped it to its own row. I then originally tried to put the nav table and the radar image table in their own table cells, but that proved to be problematic for various reasons (should be possible still, but I didn't want to do it), so I ended up just dumping them in the same cell and setting that cell's background color to black. Really, that's all there was to it. I tried some other stuff to fancy it up a bit, but ended up just leaving it like that. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:37, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

| :::Also, that table was 727px for a reason (the nav table was 6.5em, which ended up being 74px, and 801-74=727). In my browser, there's now a black strip along the outside of the red border on the right side of the table.

| :Thanks. I'll look into it on my copy of FF and see if I can come up with an idea of what's up. I don't really check most of my releases in FF, since 99% of the stuff just works in it as well as Safari, but it's possible it's something I miscoded for FF or else something interacting oddly with those scripts. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:45, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

| Hey, Aichon. I just noticed something. [http://iamscott.net/1292372475800.html] Take a look at the inventory. Now look through the drop-down list for dropping items. It says I have a Toolbox, but it doesn't show up in my inventory. If I disable the Item Combiner of yours, the toolbox will appear, like seen here: [http://iamscott.net/1292372595907.html]. --{{User:Axe Hack/Sig}} 00:24, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

| :I have that script and I do believe it hides certain buttons like spray can and flak jacket. Stuff that wastesAP if clicked on fron your inventory. That's probably it but Aichon could tell you for sure. {{User:Vapor/sig}} 00:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::Yep, Vapor got it. It hides a few buttons that simply waste AP if clicked. It doesn't even get them all honestly, since I was lazy with implementing it, but I was just tired of having these buttons that didn't do anything and took up AP if you mis-clicked. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:35, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

| I'm really confused on the if then templates, and was hoping you could help me. I'm looking to use the templates to create a chunk of code that would work similarly to the random page feature, but for items underneath my user namespace. Is it possable to do with the if then templates? -{{User:Poodle of doom/sig 3}} 23:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

| |
| :I'm having trouble understanding exactly what you're asking for (I blame it on the lack of sleep and illness...a few hours ago, I was speaking gibberish since I was so tired apparently). Anyway, if what you're trying to do is have a random page/template appear as a chunk of another page in your userspace, you might want to take a look at what Mis has done with his main user page. You can't actually do random, but you can have it vary by date and time. If you can explain to me, in detail, what a working concept would look like to the end user, I can probably give you better instructions for how to do it. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:39, 15 December 2010 (UTC) | |
| ::Basically, Special:Random, but for my namespace.... ie,.... click the link, and you go to a random subpage of mine. -{{User:Poodle of doom/sig 3}} 03:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC) | |
| :::No. You can create a link that will ''appear'' random, but not a truly random one. You'd need to nest two Switches together, probably CURRENTHOUR and CURRENTMINUTE, although just the latter would probably work on its own. Then list the outcomes for each possibility, badda bing. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 03:11, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::::Yep, Mis is right. Basically, you don't need the if templates at all, and should instead look into the switch one. With this version of the wiki software, there's no way to do truly random stuff like that, but Mis' answer is the best one we have. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 03:21, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

| ==Humourous suggestions==
| |
| I was going through the history of our latest n00b's talk page, and noticed that you said that the humourous suggestions edits where in archives, and shouldn't be changed. AFAIK, they may be archived, but are left open for comments/mock votes regardless. After all, it is humourous, and voting is never tallied up and closed <small>-- <span style="text-shadow: #bbb 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em">[[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 09:21 20 December 2010 (BST)</span></small>
| |
| :Yeah, I realized that quite a bit after the fact, and you're 100% correct. I had thought the archives weren't supposed to be edited, but yesterday or the day before when I was reviewing his edits, I realized I had made a mistake in saying that when I noticed some text somewhere saying that it was permissible to edit them. Humorous Suggestions have never been a part of the wiki that I've been especially familiar with, since I don't follow them or their proceedings, so I had assumed that they functioned somewhat similarly to the main suggestion system, where once they are done, they're done. I was going to re-review his edits at some point and see if I needed to restore them, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:16, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

| ::No worries. Humourous suggestions is a quiet backwater of the wiki, with no real rules, just common sense, where people just fix things up the way they want without any drama.

| You know, I never thought you were a Knight, although in hindsight it should have really clicked a lot earlier. If not simply for the educated method of posting, then definitely for the white mask and notches in your gun. {{User:Ashley Valentine/sig}} 13:52, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

| :Well, since I play all sorts of different characters, it's not surprising that people don't realize I have ones in certain groups or playing certain ways.
