Hi - wanted to respond to your comments re my guide, [[Guides/Review#Guides:Short_simple_guide_to_staying_alive|A short, simple guide to staying alive]], if you don't mind, as I think it ~is~ a significant improvement over other guides.
There's no original research of thought. You're just repeating what you heard in other guides.
Also, crit 3. --VVV (AH) (3)  BT!  04:43, 21 August 2010 (BST)
For a "beginner's" guide, it would be nearly impossible to achieve anything original as far as content.  Thus that should not, in itself, be a standard for determining a "better guide".  In fact, I had not slogged through any of the other opuses, at best only skimmed parts of them, which is what prompted me to create this short(er) one. After over 3 years of intermittent play, I don't have to read the obvious to write about it (or improve on it).
My goal (which I submit I achieved), was a guide that is more focused than ~any~ of those others, and does not try to touch on every basic facet of the game, but only on those to get the newbie to Level 4, w/ Free Running & Construction, which is what a newbie (''not every new survivor character, but a '''newbie''''') needs to survive while they figure the game out for themselves.  Thus it's not about "something new", but "something better" - and if you took the time (ugh) to reread over those older guides, you'd find them all over the map - not what my guide is aiming for.
So, I think the Guide is at least as good, if not better for its stated purpose, as existing "featured" guides, and belongs with them. If you agree, or at least don't completely disagree, could you move your "against" vote to "abstain"? Or not, just askin'. --Swingin' Sam 19:12, 21 August 2010 (BST)

I don't like my talk page. Just leave a message at the bottom with a double header, without pressing the magic + button, and I'll reply on yours.


Rules:
  1. Feel free to give opinions or advice, even if you are not asked.
  2. Tell me your troubles, even if you are not sure I want to hear them.
  3. When in my lair, show me respect or else do not come here.
  4. If a guest in my lair annoys me, I'll treat them cruelly and without mercy.
  5. Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal.
  6. Do not take that which does not belong to you unless it is a burden to the other person and they cry out to be relieved.
  7. Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained.

how i add my group to the wyke hills list?

im asking cuz i tried and clicked the preview and i cant see it, so can you help me with this? User:Delta Nitroxs LP

Thanks

thanks but we are a pro-survivor group lol, but just spanish-talking people and we recruit people from outside the game so dont worry, maybe we would make publicity by radio or some tags, but just some cuz we already have publicity in my quiz in facebook (i have 450 fans and 35.000 people :P) so we are growing thanks to that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Delta Nitroxs LP (talkcontribs) at an unknown time.

A belated response is not a problem. I wish for you to know that your account is still on the forums, and will not be removed. You have been placed on an inactive members list though, and will not be able to view the forums. I have done such out of respect for you being the last of the original founding members, aside from myself, with the group. If you should ever wish to return to us, please let me know by making such a request on my talk page, or on the groups talk page. You will always have a place in our ranks. -Poodle of DoomM!

hey

so i saw your edit to the great fire page, me likey. Just quick question - i assume you went into teh category and actually mapped out which suburbs had the most affected locations? just making sure you didnt randomly choose dif suburbs and give them colours :P xoxo 08:42, 30 March 2010 (BST)

That's right. The more buildings destroyed, the darker red, except in Lamport Hills and Old Arkham, where the suburb pages said they were hit hard, as well as Yagoton and East Boundwood, which were between two major hot spots. The most buildings to be lost in a suburb is three, but if a building's description says the entire area burned down, it counts for two levels of red rather than one. --VVV RPMBG 23:51, 30 March 2010 (BST)

Worthy Opponent

Actually, the highlander was probably quoting me-as I said it to him in real life on the phone-So you could add that Scouteric said that "TripleU is a worthy adversary". One of the things that survi groups need to thrive is a good rival. A rival in the sense of "determined and formidable" not in the sense of trash talking hater. One of my jobs as 2nd Co leader is to find such and report to the other 2 leaders. We have a tendency to have a roving membership and after big "events" it is hard to get everybody back! I have quite a dossier on you so we respect your efforts. You play the game well and force us to communicate on forum and coordinate our efforts-in short you make our group and game better. And you do this by your success-for you HAVE been very successful. So successful that we have had to alter our plans and tactics to try to support our friends @ RR. Well done. (And you should thank the other local zed star Annus Horribilis, he has been in the fight relentlessly even before you came to our attention-but I see from your page that you have met-looks like BEFORE we were in Wyke!) Well, See you on the battlefield and good luck!--Belisarius17 01:04, 2 April 2010 (BST)

Ok-he told me about the radio contest with iambecomemantu. Right-your point is taken and it is an excellent point: Covert Ops, public service announcements, emergency notifications and all that make the broadcasts a good tool...problem is radios take up encumbrance and we have gone satellite phone for communications beyond forums-but still, you are right-really should be monitoring it and will do it from now on. Anyways, Thanks for the tip, rival. Also wanted to tell you nice job on the buildings picts.--Belisarius17 17:45, 11 May 2010 (BST)

Just to let you know

I made a minor adjustment to your signature since you had left off a </sup> and it was causing your timestamps to appear on a new line, which in turn broke numbering for things like voting. It wasn't a big deal, but since it was actively breaking formatting elsewhere, I figured I'd go ahead and make the change immediately. Hope you don't mind. Aichon 05:50, 18 May 2010 (BST)

Philosophical point

(griefing does not exist. If it's griefing for me to stay in the Wicksted for over a year, it's also griefing for RRF, SFNAS, and even RR themselves to be stationary.)

Respectfully disagree in one small sense-While I agree that your excellent grasp of the vulnerable spot in the RR system is PERFECTLY appropriate for the game and the Barrah movement, and that your group is really effective in spite of the difficulties and disadvantages of being Undead most of the time-(I still think it is harder to be a zombie-my zed guy really struggles), I would say that I have seen griefing in the game, which I would describe as anything that is an attempt to drive players out of the game-as opposed to eating them or shooting them. I would add here that I have never seen the zombie players try to do that-Pker groups-yes, survi groups-yes, deathcultists-once-but not the zeds.--Belisarius17 01:49, 22 May 2010 (BST)
Bel's right. Most anti-zerger groups will admit to griefing, as they aim to drive the cheaters out of the game permanently. I'll also grant that my own death cult will resort to griefing to win a protracted conflict as well. However, the term griefing is thrown about far too lightly quite often, and does not exist anywhere near as much as it is claimed. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 01:56, 22 May 2010 (BST)
Good point- Trip's relatively small but growing group has a couple of DEAD-icated players that are very good at what they do and creative in their approach. That is NOT griefing-they are just good at being monster barrah fanatics. I had not considered the zerger issue but since they screw up the game I think that the "technique of grief" may be their just desserts.--Belisarius17 03:01, 22 May 2010 (BST)

Linking against Sandbox pages

Just noticed that you had been including some of my Sandbox pages in various places (e.g. your sig, your nav bar). To say the least, I strongly recommend against doing so for reasons that you probably have already figured out. My sandbox pages get blanked and repurposed on a regular basis, so including them somewhere else is extremely dangerous. Once the pages go live however, we will have equivalents of those templates available for you to use, but, once again, you should exercise caution since invalid suburb names could break your navigation bar.

Unemplementia

After checking out Ross's Unemplementia page, I saw that you had made some alterations to my areas. I don't mind terribly, just as long as the general feel of the town isn't lost. Although, if you're going to make a major city that would border East and West Jackson, I might have to relocate my areas. Especially if they'd be bordering a bustling city since my areas are themed on the "small rural town" feel.
