| 00:00.20 | Bagginsww | a wikipedia would have went by his full name rather than overly simplified "NPC" title |
| 00:02.07 | Bagginsww | ok sicco article in the Monster Guide isn't bad. One of the rare articles that actually adds to the lore |
| 00:02.27 | Bagginsww | Did you know that Sicco Thermaplug wanted to become the first true king in 400 years? |
| 00:02.28 | Zeal | Bagginsww, if you read what i suggested alternatively to the two policies |
| 00:02.44 | Bagginsww | oh link? |
| 00:02.54 | Zeal | basically, the real article always being on the full name, and npc titles redirecting to it. |
| 00:03.01 | Bagginsww | I agree |
| 00:04.37 | Bagginsww | But ya the RPG article is entitled, "Mekgineer Sicco Thermaplugg" like in the manual |
| 00:05.00 | Bagginsww | backstory for him isn't half-bad |
| 00:05.35 | Bagginsww | The guy had plans to create a great kingdom carved out of gnomeregan, carved out of the entire western half of dun morogh |
| 00:05.44 | Bagginsww | Such ego, LOL |
| 00:06.13 | Bagginsww | Oh man he didn't care if he had to relocate the dwarven settlements in the name of progress... |
| 00:06.26 | Bagginsww | it implies his plans would have involved declaring war on the dwarves |
| 00:07.09 | Bagginsww | The council of tinkers decided he was way too ambitious and chose his closest friend Gelbin Mekkatorque instead |
| 00:07.18 | Zeal | western half huh? perhaps that explains soem fo the wasted space down the western border :P |
| 00:07.34 | Bagginsww | heh heh |
| 00:08.05 | Bagginsww | Interesting how wowwiki's article directs to Gelbin Mekkatoque, over his ingame NPC title. |
| 00:08.18 | Bagginsww | never any consistency LOL |
| 00:08.41 | Bagginsww | so ya that was the day that Sicco's sanity finally broke |
| 00:08.56 | Bagginsww | He planned to gain revenge on his friend |
| 00:09.33 | Bagginsww | By working the system and gaining favor among the intellectual elite, he eventually won the seate of advisor to the High Tinker |
| 00:10.01 | Bagginsww | It was his idea that during the trogg invasion that the gnomes shut themselves from the world. |
| 00:10.15 | Bagginsww | Its his fault that the gnomes didn't help during the third war. |
| 00:11.16 | Bagginsww | Also through is "advice" he he came up with a plan that would destroy Gelbin's image, and win him the throne. |
| 00:11.46 | Bagginsww | After weeks of debate, he convinced Gelbin to flood the halls of gnomeregan with radiation via a bomb. |
| 00:12.27 | Bagginsww | in order ot kill the trogs. He believed if a few gnomes died in the process, he sated it would be a worthy sacrifice for saving the entire race. |
| 00:13.28 | *** join/#wowwiki Laraul (i=spoof@ip72-200-90-128.tc.ph.cox.net) |
| 00:13.35 | Bagginsww | However, due to reasons Thermaplug can't even remember, he found himself locked inside Gnomer when when the bomb was released. |
| 00:13.59 | Bagginsww | Despite his age and fraility he did not die. Some say it was his ambition that saved him. |
| 00:14.14 | Bagginsww | while others say he hid and suffered the least of the posion |
| 00:14.17 | Bagginsww | *poison |
| 00:14.31 | Bagginsww | Despite what happened he lived and mutate dinto a leper gnome. |
| 00:14.32 | Zeal | Deper is s stupid prick tbh :/ |
| 00:14.50 | Bagginsww | oh ya I agree |
| 00:15.37 | Bagginsww | RAdiation killed more gnomes than troggs and many others that were stuck inside the city's walls also became leper gnomes. |
| 00:16.13 | Zeal | <Bagginsww> However, due to reasons Thermaplug can't even remember, he found himself locked inside Gnomer when when the bomb was released. <-- nice lroe there, rofl |
| 00:16.16 | Zeal | *lore |
| 00:16.16 | Bagginsww | In the ensueing chaos thermaplugg has begun calling himself a king. |
| 00:16.30 | Bagginsww | ya sense of humor ;) |
| 00:16.38 | bleetah | I thought Gnomer was irradiated 'coz of booby traps at Winter Veil time... /shrug |
| 00:16.59 | Bagginsww | To this day he rules over the leper gnomes and continues to fight the troggs. |
| 00:17.43 | Bagginsww | He controls his land with a tyrannical fist, destorying outsiders as rapidly as any other enemy |
| 00:18.13 | Bagginsww | He keeps to himself most of the time since becoming king of gnomeregan, working on insane world conquering inventions |
| 00:18.25 | Bagginsww | Thankfully few if any will ever see the light of day |
| 00:18.50 | Bagginsww | Paranoid beyond rational thought, thermaplugg destroys anything that disturbs his work, even his own leper gnome servants |
| 00:19.34 | Bagginsww | REcently however he has opened up negotiations with dark iron dwarves, allowing them use of gnomer's tunnels in exchange for a part of Ironforge to call his own. No one knows what may become of this alliance, but it won't be good. |
| 00:20.57 | Zeal | have people never heard of web extras made available through registering products? |
| 00:21.16 | Zeal | this is that brady games do with their strategy guides and such |
| 00:21.29 | Bagginsww | ya |
| 00:21.41 | Bagginsww | web extras should never be charged for... |
| 00:21.51 | Bagginsww | especially when the book promises their existence... |
| 00:21.58 | bleetah | yup |
| 00:22.15 | Zeal | nope, and theres extremly easy methods of only allowing those who purchased the related product to receiving them. |
| 00:25.50 | Bagginsww | I think maybe if it was free to those with the book, and charged to those who don't that might be better option |

| 06:58.56 | Sky2042 | yeah |
| 06:59.03 | Zeal | Tekkub knows the feeling, lol |
| 06:59.04 | Sky2042 | what exactly, did you do? |
| 06:59.07 | Sky2042 | :o |
| 06:59.21 | Tekkub | I what now? |
| 06:59.27 | Sky2042 | give me the "dummy's guide to" version |
| 07:01.24 | Zeal | {{tooltip}} name {{icon}} redundant long ago, and people decided {{tooltip}} was ot be the new standard. I didn't want to remove {{icon}} from use until tooltip could offer the same stack overlay ability. Yesterday, i got sick of seeing the old tooltip, the non-standard and stupid method tusva implemented and people have been using, so edited the boilerplate, added {{tooltip}}, documented, removed {{icon}}. |
| 07:02.20 | Sky2042 | ok... i saw that change, which i personally preferred... what else then? |
| 07:02.57 | Sky2042 | btw, I would like to shoot whomever decided that a miscellaneous stub would have the {{Stub/Other}} template |
| 07:03.07 | Sky2042 | rather than {{Stub/Misc}} |
| 07:03.09 | Sky2042 | -_- |
| 07:03.35 | Zeal | i then changed {{icon}} to be used inside {{tooltip}} and handle custom sizes and the overlay better. But, {{icon}} used to fix .png on the end of the icon name, where as tooltip (and most other interoperable templates i've worked on) use the full filename, to allow for when icon's don't have a png yet etc. This means all existing uses of {{icon}} (which need to be removed anyways) are now broken. |
| 07:04.12 | Zeal | i also marked the old bc item stub template for speedydelete (it was tusva's method and ultimately 'illegal' ) |
| 07:04.25 | Sky2042 | lol |
| 07:04.28 | Zeal | because so many people were using it to create new items when they shouldn't have been |
| 07:04.34 | Sky2042 | well done zeal |
| 07:04.36 | Sky2042 | ;P |
| 07:04.54 | Sky2042 | how many ppl can you piss off in one go? :P |

| 07:05.34 | Sky2042 | lol |
| 07:06.03 | Zeal | Tekkub, sick of reluctance to take action hindering progress on the wiki |
| 07:06.49 | Tekkub | ah |
| 07:07.21 | Sky2042 | its a fair bit of change, tbh |
| 07:07.34 | Sky2042 | which is usually what sets people off :] |
| 07:08.21 | Zeal | Fandyllic wanted to revert icon, which mean's i'd also have to revert tooltip, and it also means we'd still have to remove {{icon}} manually anyways as {{tooltip}} is added, but wait for a bot before we'd ever get stack overlays again, so people would never bother to actually make any of the changes manually. |
| 07:10.10 | Zeal | so instead of people saying "nah, let's wait for a bot, i cba" and preventing the wiki from making any progress, while the work load for users and bot's builds up steadily, i'm saying "Here's the future, the past is broken, get to implementing so we can move on already" |

| 07:42.17 | VonhintenHOME | automatic update is the devil |
| 07:42.23 | VonhintenHOME | I update on my own schedule |
| 07:42.32 | Zeal | ah, well for IE6 there are none :P |
| 07:42.50 | Zeal | l2automatic update VonhintenHOME, lol |
| 07:43.05 | Sky2042 | and? the uniniated usually just go with what they're told to do... and the initiated use Firefox. ;P |
| 07:43.10 | Sky2042 | lol |
| 07:43.16 | VonhintenHOME | I will, when automatic update l2not reboot or interupt me in the middle of gaming :) |
| 07:43.31 | Zeal | it doesn't von, hence be saying l2 |
| 07:43.45 | Zeal | set it to update the way you want |
| 07:44.31 | VonhintenHOME | Bottom line, IE6's standards support may suck, but the most problem I should see from that is a poor rendering of the page... |
| 07:44.33 | VonhintenHOME | not a database error |
| 07:44.36 | Zeal | me, it notifies me of updates to download (doesn't effect games in full screen), and again when it's downloaded and ready to install. |
| 07:44.38 | bleetah | there'd also be the case of some corporate style users who can't upgrade yet |
| 07:45.21 | Zeal | only if they're not using XP relaly bleetah, in which case they can't even if they wanted. |
| 07:45.25 | bleetah | ah, the joys of open source and trying to please the masses :-D |
| 07:45.34 | VonhintenHOME | I had auto update set that way, and when it decided it was time to reboot, it would bring up the reboot dialog every 3 minutes |
| 07:45.52 | VonhintenHOME | Then in the middle of the night while I'm sleeping, it decides to do a reboot without user permission |
| 07:45.53 | Sky2042 | you can set it to be "brought up" after a different amount of time :/ |
| 07:46.15 | Sky2042 | not happened to me yet... :/ |
| 07:46.19 | Zeal | that is the only gripe, but it's fairly obvious if you're installing cruicial updates, you're gunna need to restart, so either hold off or live with it. |
| 07:46.26 | Zeal | no, not for that Sky2042 |
| 07:46.33 | Zeal | and it's not 3 mins afaik |
| 07:46.43 | bleetah | meh, what do I know, though, I haven't seriously used Windows for about.. 5 years. even then, that was only for the preceeding 3 years |
| 07:46.57 | Sky2042 | :O! |
| 07:47.11 | Sky2042 | i really should try out one of the other OSs... :/ |
| 07:47.20 | Zeal | beleive it's also after something like 72 hours, each time it asks to reboot, will be a 5 min countdown timer to restart you have to council, heh. |
| 07:47.23 | Zeal | *cancell |
| 07:47.41 | Zeal | lol |
| 07:47.57 | VonhintenHOME | yeah, the 5 minute Annoy_the_shit_out_of_me dialog |
| 07:48.04 | Sky2042 | meaning, at work bleet? :P |
| 07:48.19 | bleetah | ahuh |
| 07:48.19 | Zeal | http://www.zeal.com fuck squatters! >_<; |
| 07:48.36 | bleetah | and that period I did use Windows, was only for testing the backend servers with the games |
| 07:48.45 | Sky2042 | owned! |
| 07:48.59 | Sky2042 | how about wowzeal.com? :p |
| 07:49.05 | bleetah | that's to say, the games were on Windows, and I was responsible for the servers, so until I wrote the standalone unit testers, I was forced to use windows ;) |
| 07:49.34 | Zeal | von, try the page now |
| 07:49.45 | Zeal | if you still get an error, no idea. |
| 07:49.47 | Sky2042 | worked for me in ie7 |
| 07:49.54 | VonhintenHOME | that works |
| 07:49.56 | Sky2042 | zomg, he has both! :p |
| 07:50.07 | bleetah | works in elinks, too |

| 07:52.38 | Zeal | well IE7 itself doesn't really need one.. heh |
| 07:52.51 | Zeal | a search engine can register itself. |
| 07:53.06 | bleetah | same with FF2 and .. that Mac thing, iirc |
| 07:53.17 | Zeal | not used FF2 :p |
| 07:53.38 | Zeal | and i won't until i get an alert telling me to upgrade nad providing an automatic update.. |
| 07:54.10 | bleetah | heh, yeah.. I was just gunna ignore it until most of the Linuxes start distributing FF3, 'coz quite a few have ignored FF2 |
| 07:54.34 | Zeal | https://home.membercenter.office.microsoft.com/Signup15/Default.aspx?sku=Basics&lo=0&lc=1033 free domain ftw? :p |
| 07:55.14 | VonhintenHOME | I have a buddy that did that |
| 07:55.21 | VonhintenHOME | True enough, they register your domain for you |
| 07:55.58 | Zeal | i just can see how long for and if they pay the reoccuring fees |
| 07:56.04 | Zeal | *can't |
| 07:56.45 | Zeal | the terms say if you cancel, you still keep the domain, but you will have to pay the reoccuring fees aftwards |
| 07:56.59 | Zeal | so i guess that means they pay for the lifetime of the account. |
| 07:57.16 | VonhintenHOME | most likely |
| 07:57.24 | VonhintenHOME | I think they've lost their marbles, but whatever |
| 07:57.37 | Zeal | aye, lol |
| 07:58.16 | Zeal | have to wait 60 days after canceling the account before you can move registar, so that's ok. |
| 07:58.28 | VonhintenHOME | I still can't see myself using an office web app |
| 07:58.47 | VonhintenHOME | like google spreadsheet, nice gimmick, but no thanks |
| 07:59.31 | Zeal | i'd use any wed app |
| 07:59.45 | Zeal | i consider it the future and a preferable choice. |
| 08:00.13 | VonhintenHOME | I'm not on that boat :) |

| 18:37.25 | Zeal | oh? as i said, i'd rather not, but if people wan't thme fine. just as long as they're not done the same way as in wow :P |
| 18:38.11 | Hobinheim|work | did you see my msg? you said moo |
| 18:38.22 | Zeal | well your whois doesn't say you're identified hob |
| 18:38.30 | Tepetkhet | uh |
| 18:38.30 | Zeal | and no, i didn't |
| 18:38.30 | Hobinheim|work | irc is stupid |
| 18:38.32 | Gryphen | neither of yours does |
| 18:38.36 | Tepetkhet | Wait. |
| 18:38.41 | Zeal | mine says i am |
| 18:38.47 | Tepetkhet | I don't know how to template stuff like this, but... |
| 18:38.48 | Zeal | just checked. |
| 18:38.55 | Tepetkhet | Is it possible to make it like both examples? |
| 18:38.57 | Kirkburn | Hob must be identified, he's opped! |
| 18:39.15 | Tepetkhet | Like you click the Deviate Scale Belt part in example 1 and it expands down to look like example 2? |
| 18:40.06 | Kirkburn | If we got rollover links, that would be easy :) |
| 18:40.21 | Tepetkhet | Well, I mean not like a pop-up... |
| 18:40.24 | Kirkburn | I know |
| 18:40.26 | Tepetkhet | But a click. |
| 18:40.39 | Tepetkhet | click and it exands, click again and it retracts. |
| 18:40.51 | Hobinheim | it looks ugly in firefox, the link kirk posted |
| 18:40.53 | Tepetkhet | I'm sorry - I don't know what to call that. |
| 18:41.06 | Tepetkhet | Wow, really? |
| 18:41.11 | Tepetkhet | Looks awesome in Opera. |
| 18:41.15 | Kirkburn | Tepetkhet, rest assured I know what you're saying |
| 18:41.24 | Gryphen | in ff the text isnt contained |
| 18:41.29 | Kirkburn | Woah, broken in FF2 |
| 18:41.31 | Tepetkhet | ACK!! |
| 18:41.34 | Tepetkhet | Yeah, broken in FF |
| 18:41.39 | Tepetkhet | Looks fine in Opera. |
| 18:41.42 | Kirkburn | nvm that then ^^ |
| 18:42.15 | Tepetkhet | A shame. I really liked the way it looked. |
| 18:42.24 | Gryphen | im sure it can be fixed |
| 18:42.29 | Zeal | broken in FF? weird, i'll check on it in a sec. |
| 18:42.41 | Zeal | and Tepetkhet, that is an idea i like. |
| 18:42.55 | Tepetkhet | The white text at the bottom doesn't wrap around to the bottom in example 2. |
| 18:43.05 | Tepetkhet | It's off to the right of the Deviate Scale Belt box. |
| 18:43.26 | Zeal | oh, i think i know why. |
| 18:43.59 | Zeal | forgot, only IE and opera auto-clear floats (incorrectly i might add). |
| 18:44.18 | Kirkburn | yup |
| 18:44.29 | Gryphen | "WoW tooltip with all it's failings", is everything not designed by you flawed? |
| 18:44.59 | Tepetkhet | hm? |
| 18:45.14 | Tepetkhet | Incorrectly? |
| 18:45.19 | Gryphen | zeal's comment, the constant dig on everything is really annoying |
| 18:45.24 | Zeal | you'd think that right? lol. never said what i do is flawed, it more often is. |
| 18:45.35 | Zeal | *isn't |
| 18:46.24 | Tepetkhet | hah |
| 18:46.34 | Tepetkhet | Nice. |
| 18:47.04 | Zeal | haha |
| 18:47.08 | Zeal | ^_^ |
| 18:47.18 | Kirkburn | Zeal, why not the ref module? |
| 18:49.12 | Kirkburn | I have a question - so what are we actually doing about tooltips inclusion |
| 18:50.01 | Kirkburn | Or ... where's the discussion? |
| 18:50.07 | Zeal | Kirkburn, seeing as i'm apparently in the dog house atm, i would suggest reading the medwiki article on it.. one sec. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cite.php#Criticisms |
| 18:50.28 | Zeal | Kirkburn, it was voted against |
| 18:51.02 | Kirkburn | Where's the discussion, can't find it :( |
| 18:51.10 | Zeal | and Tusva's method which was on the bc item placeholder was never voted on, and has now been voted against. |
| 18:51.16 | Zeal | er. one sec. |
| 18:51.19 | Kirkburn | And I see what you're saying about the ref stuff, fair enough |
| 18:51.44 | Kirkburn | The BC item placeholder is/was weird |
| 18:53.14 | Kirkburn | Ah, http://www.wowwiki.com/WoWWiki:Policy/Item_Article_Standardization |
| 18:53.26 | Zeal | yeah that. fell off my watchlist, heh. |
| 18:54.05 | Kirkburn | What was the result?! |
| 18:54.24 | Laraul | I should take zeal of /notify ignore |
| 18:54.45 | Kirkburn | ffs, the vote didn't actually mention what the result was! |
| 18:55.54 | Zeal | option 1 if i recall, lol |
| 18:56.12 | Kirkburn | 2 :) |
| 18:56.56 | Kirkburn | However, what about the transclusion of the tooltip? |
| 18:57.40 | Kirkburn | Bah, it's midweek, not the best time for deep talks :) |
| 18:58.01 | Hobinheim | can't we just chill, hold hands, and pop a healthstone... |
| 18:58.04 | Kirkburn | I'm going to play CS:S, and ... everyone ... chill out :) The week is half over! |
| 18:58.08 | Kirkburn | Woah |
| 18:58.09 | Hobinheim | do you think lock stones are an allegory for drugs? |
| 18:58.12 | Kirkburn | Hobinheim, are you reading my mind? |
| 18:58.13 | Tepetkhet | hah |
| 18:58.15 | Hobinheim | what''s css? |
| 18:58.17 | Tepetkhet | Creepy. |
| 18:58.22 | Hobinheim | cs:s |
| 18:58.27 | Tepetkhet | Counter Strike? |
| 18:58.29 | Kirkburn | Aye |
| 18:58.30 | Laraul | Hobinheim, i wish you guys would |
| 18:58.32 | Hobinheim | source? |
| 18:58.37 | Kirkburn | Aye-aye |
| 18:58.43 | Hobinheim | i dunno where the source part comes from |
| 18:58.44 | Tepetkhet | Hm. |
| 18:58.48 | Hobinheim | that and i'm not an FPS guy |
| 18:58.54 | Kirkburn | Source is the name of the game engine |
| 18:59.01 | Tepetkhet | What's a good name for an Off-Topic forum for members only on a WoW message board? |
| 18:59.01 | Hobinheim | i was reading a thread about "ask me about being pro gamer" holy christ so many acronyms |
| 18:59.02 | Laraul | I'm a console fps person |
| 18:59.08 | Hobinheim | and i thought wow terminology was bad |
| 18:59.12 | Tepetkhet | I already have an Off-Topic in Public. |
| 18:59.20 | Kirkburn | Terran Matters |
| 18:59.22 | Laraul | "Off-Topic" |
| 18:59.34 | Kirkburn | Earthicans Only |
| 18:59.38 | Tepetkhet | hah |
| 18:59.50 | Laraul | You really don't need that forum then |
| 18:59.59 | Tepetkhet | yes I do. |
| 19:00.05 | Laraul | Is there a general forum? |
| 19:00.13 | Tepetkhet | Yup. |
| 19:00.22 | Tepetkhet | General guildie chat stuffies. |
| 19:00.29 | Tepetkhet | Supposed to still be WoW-related. |
| 19:00.32 | Laraul | Then off-topic stuff will go there if not in the public off-topic forum |
| 19:00.35 | Tepetkhet | I guess I could just change the comment on it. |
| 19:01.00 | Tepetkhet | I tend to over-categorize. |
| 19:01.18 | Zeal | lol |
| 19:02.25 | Hobinheim | omg you know what the best wiki/wow contribution has been so far |
| 19:02.29 | Hobinheim | that sexy attunement chart |
| 19:02.36 | Hobinheim | i bet every 70 nerdgasms over it |
| 19:02.37 | Zeal | huh? |
| 19:02.49 | Hobinheim | http://www.wowwiki.com/images/2/20/WoWRaids.png |
| 19:03.06 | Laraul | I need to burn the 4 BC install CDs onto a single DVD |
| 19:03.11 | Tepetkhet | I have The Lobby which is read/write for everybody...Public which is read for anon, read/write for everybody else, Members Only which is read/write for guildies (invisible for non-guildies), and O-Chat which is read/write for Officers only. |
| 19:03.14 | Zeal | btw, dunno if you saw, but someone from wikiwow asked about using several of my templates, heh. |
| 19:03.31 | Tepetkhet | And under each container, I have different forum sections. |
| 19:03.42 | Laraul | Tepetkhet: That's too much |
| 19:04.09 | Tepetkhet | Maybe I should scrap them all and just make "FORUM" |
| 19:04.12 | Tepetkhet | hah |
| 19:04.21 | Kirkburn | This is slightly sad - when you search for WikiWoW, you get WoWWiki FIRST |
| 19:04.33 | Zeal | haha |
| 19:04.34 | Zeal | nice |
| 19:04.37 | Laraul | How many posts do you get altogether? |
| 19:04.49 | Tepetkhet | Laraul: It only went live a week or so ago. |
| 19:05.14 | Laraul | So not many. Limit yourself to just three or four forums max |
| 19:06.11 | Tepetkhet | That'll make it harder to find things, though. |
| 19:06.28 | Tepetkhet | Like strategies and builds and stuff. |
| 19:06.54 | Gryphen | that WoWRaids.png transparency is goofy |
| 19:08.06 | Tepetkhet | But then, I'm one of those women with the tall lingerie chests with like 20 drawers. |
| 19:08.52 | Kirkburn | I'm glad to know you have so much lingerie ... |
| 19:09.35 | Hobinheim | .... |
| 19:09.57 | Tepetkhet | Well, there's the drawer for white socks and the drawer for black socks and the drawer for funky socks and the drawer for knee-high stockings and the drawer for panty hose with patterns and... |
| 19:10.29 | Tepetkhet | >_> |
| 19:11.13 | Zeal | lol |
| 19:28.07 | Zeal | bbl |
| 19:28.41 | Zeal | Kirkburn, if you're not busy later, fancy trying to sort out refrences and ciation ideas so i can make soem sort of template and propose? |
| 19:29.07 | Kirkburn | Can do if I have time :) |
| 19:29.15 | Zeal | cool :) |
| 19:32.30 | Hobinheim | wtf does the NO EDIT SECTION token do? |
| 19:37.51 | Hobinheim | i already made some references templates! |
| 19:37.58 | Hobinheim | they're ghetto.... |
| 19:41.17 | Tepetkhet | Wow...I suck at design. |
| 19:44.20 | Kirkburn | Hobinheim, it removes the edit links |
| 19:44.39 | Hobinheim | ehh i wanted to make who added it a vandal or a suspect |
| 19:44.44 | Hobinheim | his history is all short and weird |
| 19:46.30 | Hobinheim | there's a meltdown at work... how embarassing |
| 19:47.24 | Kirkburn | What did you do to the reactor, Hob!!? |
| 19:48.49 | Hobinheim|work | release reactor pressure. YES or NO |
| 19:48.55 | Hobinheim|work | oooo a tab key. i could use a drink |
| 19:48.56 | Hobinheim|work | [tab] |
| 19:49.23 | Hobinheim|work | i dunno if i've ever mentioned wher ei work, but i work for a high profil ewebsite |
| 19:49.28 | Hobinheim|work | and the department head is yelling at everyone |
| 19:49.34 | Gryphen | __NOEDITSECTION__ is nice on articles cluttered with [edit]'s |
| 19:50.08 | Hobinheim|work | seemed like a subtle attempt at vandalism to me |
| 19:50.29 | Gryphen | its not |
| 19:50.39 | Hobinheim|work | actually now that you mention it i guess it is pretty ugly... |
| 19:50.41 | Hobinheim|work | with the edits |
| 19:50.47 | Hobinheim|work | i'm talking about Hyjal |
| 19:50.54 | Gryphen | yeah, looking at i |
| 19:50.55 | Gryphen | t |

| 20:18.59 | bleetah | i shant post the URL of some idiot demanding people get banned for talking about smoking ingame |
| 20:21.03 | amro | greatest thread ever was the fantasy code thread in wow beta |
| 20:21.05 | Tepetkhet | Hobinheim|work: Why do you ask? |
| 20:24.03 | Hobinheim|work | fantasy code? |
| 20:24.15 | Hobinheim|work | Tepetkhet, because i'm in a weight loss competition at work |
| 20:24.25 | Tepetkhet | Oh. |
| 20:24.26 | Hobinheim|work | lets say right now i'm an orc but i'd rather be a blood elf |
| 20:24.40 | Tepetkhet | About 2 or 3 years ago, I weighed over 203 lbs. |
| 20:24.46 | Tepetkhet | 2 years |
| 20:24.46 | Hobinheim|work | did you go on a diet? |
| 20:24.53 | Hobinheim|work | i'm constantly tired and hungry... |
| 20:24.53 | Tepetkhet | You could say that. |
| 20:25.00 | Hobinheim|work | crystal meth = diet? |
| 20:25.02 | Tepetkhet | I became lactose intolerant. |
| 20:25.04 | Hobinheim|work | lipo? |
| 20:25.06 | Tepetkhet | Adult onset. |
| 20:25.09 | Tepetkhet | VERY severe. |
| 20:25.41 | Tepetkhet | I weighed 166 lbs. this morning when I checked. |
| 20:25.46 | Tepetkhet | Still overweight, but I don't look it. |
| 20:26.00 | Tepetkhet | Oh, and I'm 5'5" |
| 20:26.08 | amro | Hobinheim|work: that's what everyone after the OP was asking about, according to whom there's a fantasy code that blizzard violated with some quest |
| 20:27.01 | Tepetkhet | Basically, I developed lactose intolerance so bad that even the smallest amount of dairy in foods gives me, uh...problems. |
| 20:27.40 | Tepetkhet | So cut out cheese, milk, butter... |
| 20:28.04 | Tepetkhet | And I'm a seafood vegetarian, so my diet was already limited. |
| 20:28.47 | Hobinheim|work | fantasy code? |
| 20:28.56 | Tepetkhet | Watch what you eat. Limit fat intake. Eat less. Exercise more. |
| 20:29.03 | Tepetkhet | No extremes. |
| 20:29.36 | amro | eat plenty of sugar |
| 20:29.43 | Tepetkhet | heh |
| 20:29.54 | Tepetkhet | Sugar in moderation is fine. Fat in moderation is fine. |
| 20:30.04 | Tepetkhet | I eat chocolate almost every day. |
| 20:30.11 | Tepetkhet | But it's dark chocolate. |
| 20:30.27 | Tepetkhet | Dark chocolate is better for you than milk or white chocolate. |

| 20:31.05 | Tepetkhet | It's lower in fat and cholesterols, and has some of those "heart healthy" whatsits like you find in green tea and stuff. |
| 20:32.09 | amro | i love milk chocolate. i recommend eating lots of that as well |
| 20:32.26 | amro | this of course assuming you're like me and don't gain weight no matter what you eat |
| 20:32.38 | Tepetkhet | heh |
| 20:33.29 | Tepetkhet | Well, if you DO gain weight easily and love milk chocolate, I'd say go ahead and get some small milk chocolate to have as treats. A single Hershey's Kiss or whatever. |
| 20:33.57 | amro | actually, don't. it's easier to forget about milk chocolate if you don't get tiny tastes to tantalize you =) |
| 20:34.00 | Tepetkhet | Denying yourself stuff will just make you miserable and more likely to "cheat" on your diet. |
| 20:35.43 | Tepetkhet | amro does not strike me as being the best resource for weight loss tips and techniques. |
| 20:35.55 | amro | =) |

| 20:36.14 | equiraptor | In a way, that depends on who you are. |
| 20:36.22 | amro | I exercice lots so it really isn't a problem for me |
| 20:36.27 | equiraptor | Some people do better if they just cut something completely out. |
| 20:36.51 | equiraptor | But for most, with "naughty" things like chocolate, some small things or the occasional indulgence is better than trying to completely cut it out. |
| 20:37.41 | equiraptor | One of the important things to remember when trying to eat to lose weight is to make sure you still get enough nutrients. |
| 20:38.01 | equiraptor | Cut calories, but cut calories my changing to more nutrient dense foods, rather than just by eating less. |
| 20:38.12 | amro | you just need determination.you can easily cut out things like chocolate if you think about the millions of people who are unaware of its existence- you can live without it |
| 20:38.30 | equiraptor | Not everyone can do that, amro. |
| 20:38.36 | equiraptor | Not everyone has that level of self control. |
| 20:39.07 | equiraptor | It's better to have small occasional indulgences than binges, if you're one of the many who doesn't have that strong self control. |
| 20:39.09 | Tepetkhet | If they DID then maybe they wouldn't be overweight in the first place... |
| 20:39.25 | amro | i was about to go on and say it depends on how much selfcontrol you have and how much you like those things |
| 20:39.55 | equiraptor | I guess I just type to fast, then, eh? :) |
| 20:40.16 | amro | =) |
| 20:40.44 | Tepetkhet | too |
| 20:40.51 | equiraptor | Yeah, yeah, I know. |
| 20:40.56 | Tepetkhet | hehehe |
| 20:41.01 | equiraptor | There's quite a bit of lag on the ssh session today. |

| 20:49.12 | Tepetkhet | AHAHAHA! Blizzard's forum filter software filters out therapist. |
| 20:51.28 | Kirkburn | It hates the word "the" :P |
| 20:51.45 | Tepetkhet | Ahhh |

| 22:19.01 | Tekkub | so did you "get the message"? ^^ |
| 22:20.29 | Zeal | no i didn't because i forgot to rename page to msg in my script :p |
| 22:20.32 | Zeal | but i read it |
| 22:21.23 | Zeal | making all pages using it speedydelete was on purose btw. |
| 22:21.43 | Tekkub | no I meant in IRC |
| 22:21.57 | Zeal | yes, i know |
| 22:22.28 | Tekkub | and I understand your intent or the placeholder, but I think we should still get the user to information if we have it |
| 22:22.40 | Zeal | none of those pages contain any information, only the /Tooltip and such do. they needed to be redoen from scratching basically. |
| 22:22.48 | Tekkub | just make the stub big and ugly and obnoxious so people get the fucking hint |
| 22:22.55 | Zeal | *scratch :s |
| 22:23.01 | Zeal | lol yeah |
| 22:24.18 | bleetah | for those missing the thread in #wowi-lounge, http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com |
| 22:24.42 | Tekkub | actually, a bot could easily turn the placeholder pages into stubs with the tooltip in em |
| 22:25.21 | Tekkub | with what was it? {{subst:...}? |
| 22:25.23 | Zeal | a bot can easily do most things. point is, we don't have one. |
| 22:25.26 | Zeal | yeah |
| 22:25.33 | Tekkub | yea I know I know |
| 22:25.42 | Tekkub | so get one :) |
