Wiki - Interest Thread

A while ago I editted the Ant Hill Wiki page, stating that you can raid an anthill without aggroing the ants by NOT buying Hunting, just foraging...

I did this early in the World 4 starting, and it still worked fine, but just recently I noticed that someone struck through that whole part and wrote next to it that you can't do it anymore. I have long since moved on from that stage and I was wondering who it was, if they actually tested it themselves and if it actually does still work or not...

loftar fixed the bug that allowed you to raid the nest without the hunting skill

When did that happen, it was still working with the raiding early in World 4, like in day 1/2

Wishing these "fixes" and "updates" were as publicized as they used to be - now it's like they're hiding all the changes from their users. Makes playing very frustrating when things stop behaving as we expect them to.

The new wiki doesn't have enough world 4 content, and the infoboxes drive me crazy.

I miss the old one.

I've tried to update one or two pages, but seeing the breathtaking speed at which the Wikia is still updated, and how people just aren't going to change their habits because we haven't done what should have been done in the first place (made a huge post about changing to this Wiki, imported wikia wiki, wiped wikia wiki and put a page that redirected to this wiki)...

It's just so overwhelming. I'm kinda updating the Wikia again -- unless we can do this right, it's really a waste of time to split resources between two sites having most of the same content - all we're doing is putting a small amount of content and updates to a site that won't be nearly as updated as the other one...

I really thought that ringofbrodgar.com had promise, too...

The issue is that the guy that "runs" wikia and the only one who can really do that hasn't logged in since may of 2010. which is another point in the "shouldn't use wikia" category. i dunno what to do at this point.

Me and Darkren took over like a thousand years ago or something.
I can change my password on my account and give you access to it if you need to export anything from it or something

We include a long explanation on the main page that directs people to try our Wiki, put enough info into the forums that people notice this, and we hope. Maybe we get more users. Maybe not. It's a point in the "dont use wikia" category but tbh most users are too stupid to know what to do with that -- maybe there's a way we can have a universal banner on all the pages of Wikia that puts at the top an explanation and links to our Wiki!! I mean, page creation and stuff is for all, so maybe there's a way.

EDIT: Wait, DOG is a SysOp on the Wikia - that might be enough to let us set a system message in the skin or editing properties of the Wikia, maybe.

Done.
If other shit needs to be done or how the hell to do it, let me know. :V

Thanks - I saw it, it works well enough - though Wikia's "tags" of "blink" are bullshit, it's just a scroll-box in Chrome... *sigh* Hate Wikia.
It's odd, in some of the Wikia "help" areas they had mention of "system messages" or stuff, which I assumed were boxes that would be put above ALL the pages - but for some reason I couldn't find it in a howto of setting these things - otherwise I'd just say how to.

EDIT: Oh, and on the Wikia, some douche had put in ads. I removed them and reported them to the ad-redirector company thing.

Hopefully I'm not spammed. On my spam-filled junk mail address. Woo.

I'll see what I can do and look it up.

Didn't seem to work, I did some looking around which led me to Tagline, which did diddly squat.

Edited sidebar, hope that makes it clear.

LOL no sign of a sidebar on the Wikia.
