Poromenos: /* flattr box */

* How about unprotecting the main page? I can think of a few ways to improve it.
** Done, experimentally. It will be reverted if it is vandalised, though. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 13:20, 3 November 2006 (EST)
*** Done, what do you think? Also, forgot to sign my last message. Oops. --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 14:23, 3 November 2006 (EST)
**** Err, that's actually very very nice. I'd also like to see the brief explanation for RoDpedia added somewhere around the top, and links to information and mobs (and perhaps the stub and cleanup categories near "how you can help), but otherwise it's very complete, and a far cry better than the original page. Congratulations, sir. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 21:53, 3 November 2006 (EST)
***** Thanks. The purpose of adding the current events page to the top is to add information about the wiki, but you can change it to display any page you want.
****** I edited it around a bit, I would still like the Mobs and Information section made as the others are, but I don't know where they should go so as to not disturb the general layout. I think adding one more row to the table would be overkill for smaller screens. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 22:08, 3 November 2006 (EST)
******* You can display two sections within the same row without any major problems. --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 22:09, 3 November 2006 (EST)
******** Well, yes, but we'd have to add two more, one for mobs and one for info, and I don't want to add them to the single rows, since it looks better now. Perhaps modifying the "Other sites" section to a "Various" one, but Mobs and Information is more important than links, so I don't feel right about putting them in the same section. I'll think about this and see, meanwhile I would gladly listen to any suggestions you might have. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 22:19, 3 November 2006 (EST)
********* I'll play around in the sandbox on my wiki for a bit. I'll let you know how it turns out. --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 22:39, 3 November 2006 (EST)
<br />
* I found out why the infoboxes weren't working right. Proper infoboxes (check the original version of Iteminfo I had up, you'll see what I mean.), weren't implemented until the 1.6x versions of MediaWiki. --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 09:18, 5 November 2006 (EST)
** Do you mean I should upgrade to 1.6 if I want them to work? --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 11:32, 5 November 2006 (EST)
*** Well, I upgraded to 1.8.x, still no dice. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 14:27, 5 November 2006 (EST)
**** The cascading include works now, but it still doesn't wrap the page. Still a victory, I suppose... --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 16:46, 5 November 2006 (EST)
<br />* Looks like you got a few spambots crawling around. Fortunately, they're stupid and don't know how to make links properly. [[User:Hhyvbdl|Hhyvbdl]] tried to fill the administrators article with dozens of spam links, I removed them and put up a (half-assed) article. --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 22:19, 25 November 2006 (EST)
** Yeah, it sucks. I check the new changes RSS feed all the time, so they get banned pretty quickly. Thanks for the change! --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 06:50, 26 November 2006 (EST)
<br />* Is there a guideline against the use of blending instead of piped links? For example, is [[Mobile|Mobiles]] to be preferred instead of [[Mobile]]s, and if so why? Thanks. --[[User:Sartier|Sartier]] 18:18, 4 December 2006 (EST)
** I'd say blending is probably a touch better, just for efficiency. But from the finished article there's no visible difference, so I don't think it really matters much. --[[User:Tokai|Tokai]] 19:01, 4 December 2006 (EST)
*** Indeed. Just use any one you prefer, it doesn't matter much. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 19:08, 4 December 2006 (EST)
<br />*Strange, it looks like the template I made back in November is working properly now o_O --[[User:Trinexx|Trinexx]] 16:35, 13 December 2006 (EST)
** I upgraded to 1.8.2 from 1.6.something recently, maybe that did it.
<br />* Ok, rewind. Forget everything I just said because I'm retarded. I propose the following: "The draconian|Draconian, The" for 2 reasons. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 18:48, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
** 1, It will show up under "D", keeping the system cleaner.
** 2, It will show up under "A draconian" should the name also exist in the same list (possible with a list of all items / etc). (Say you have: "The draconian|Draconian, The", "A draconian|Draconian, A", "This draconian|Draconian, This" and "Draconian". Keeping the articles in the categorization should make them all show up in proper alphabetical order when the list shows up but hopefully with the original "Draconian" showing up first.
*** No, you don't do it like that, you don't add the article in the sort field, you just do "The draconian|draconian" (no ", The"). Since they're all capitalised, then I agree, we should have mobs written like "The draconian|draconian". --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 19:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
**** Ok, let me try this another way. below. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 22:52, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
***** Not really, if you enter "Draconian, A" and "Draconian, The", the former will be before the latter (because A is before T). At any rate, I think you're giving this too much thought :P. Just have them sorted like you said, with "Draconian, The" and it should be fine. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 00:15, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
****** The former ''is'' before the latter in my example. The second example is what would happen under the current system. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 00:34, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
******* Indeed, let's go with the first example then. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 08:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
<br />* Check out the Templates also, did some serious clean up. I need some feedback on the item templates, namely categorization and how it is even possible. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 18:25, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
<br />* Poro, you may notice all the additional documentation pages that I added. I did this after reading something on wikipedia that basically stated that if you put your documentation directly into your template then you cause a massive overhead everytime that template is used. So moving the documentation to sub templates keeps the template itself lean and causes less overhead for your website. Also, at some point you are going to want into locking down all serious templates and css files to only you being able to edit them, these are mainly the ones that are straight from wikimedia, since you don't want someone altering those. The templates I'm creating would need to eventually be locked down to admins of some sort since modifications could be equally damaging but not on the same scale. Keep an eye on this (http://rodpedia.poromenos.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=10) [[User:Skace|Skace]] 22:52, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
** Sure thing, just tell me which ones are ready for locking and I'll lock them. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 00:15, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
<br />* Poromenos, Check out the Area template and let me know what you think about the image size, would you rather have the full screen image back or a thumbnail type version? Thanks. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 17:48, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
** Hmm, since the full size images usually break the page layout, I'd prefer the thumbnail, like you have it now, thanks. That's a great job you're doing with templates, I should modify my item script to export templates directly. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 18:06, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
*** Thanks, only problem with the item template is that it doesn't have all of your categories. How does your script know to populate so many different categories, is it manual or automatic? [[User:Skace|Skace]] 21:09, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
**** It's automatic, based on the ID. What's the problem? I can just have my script generate a list of categories to pass to the template. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 21:18, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
***** I was concerned about people attempting to enter an item manually.. if there was an easier way. I've added a field to the item template called "cats" it should allow you to add additional categories with proper syntax ie: <nowiki>[[category:devout]]</nowiki> or whatever. Something you need to know about the templates, they use a variable called cname for the sort name of the object. Once this is set, it sets a variable called <nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT}}</nowiki>. This variable changes what the sort phrase is in every category instance so you don't have to do it manually. So if you add additional categories with "cats" you won't need to tack on a specific sort name, just as long as you've set the cname variable properly. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 00:42, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
****** Oh, that's quite nice. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 02:04, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
******* Would it be possible to create a bot that looks at already created item pages (ones that were created by the template) and sees if it needs the "cats" field populated with additional data based on the id data? So a person creates an item record, fills out most of the information except the additional categories, the script or bot sees this new page and auto updates it with the missing data. Sound possible / crazy? [[User:Skace|Skace]] 09:47, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
******** Actually yes, it can even regenerate the entire page based on the ID. It'd take a bit of time though, of which I don't have a lot these days :/ --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 13:27, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
<br />* Hey Poromenos, Can we try these out:
: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css
: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js
: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-announce/2008-August/000076.html
: I can't get user specific CSS pages working with our current stuff for some reason. I see the code in wikimedia's common.js but not in ours. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 16:14, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
** Sure, what's the problem? You can just go to [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] and [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] and edit them, it's not a server thing. The software update will have to wait a bit because I'm busy with exams at the moment, I'm afraid :/ --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 16:53, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
*** Thanks, just FYI if I try to go to common.css it tells me it's locked. Which is probably a good thing since you don't want people changing that. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 17:09, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
**** Hmm, I thought you had permission for everything... Anyway I made the changes you requested, I'll have to look into the permission thing later on. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 17:10, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
***** Rollback when you can, didn't help and broke the navbox menus, oops. These CSS files aren't cut and dry. Thanks. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 09:56, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
****** Think I figured out the problem... Please check this when you can --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 14:24, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
****** Note: In the default configuration, any User Style code will be ignored. To enable User Style, the following two settings have to be enabled through LocalSettings.php:
****** <pre>$wgAllowUserJs = true;</pre>
****** <pre>$wgAllowUserCss = true;</pre>
******* I have made the two changes, let me know if it works. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 16:26, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
******** Works, It'll take some time for me to get the results I'm looking for now. Thanks. You can delete these 2 pages: [[User:Skace/Common.css]] and [[User:Skace/Monobook.css]], the one that actually works now that the settings are in place is [[User:Skace/monobook.css]] case sensitive. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 17:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
********* Ok check out [[User:Skace#Sandbox]]. If it doesn't look right, you may need to copy [[User:Skace/monobook.css]] to [[User:Poromenos/monobook.css]] and then shift+refresh it. It's just a start, but it really simplifies the stuff nicely. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 18:37, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
********** I can't tell the difference between the Mob1 and Mob2 styles, but I like all of them. We do need to chat on IM or the MUD or something though, do you have Google Talk/Jabber/MSN/Yahoo? --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 18:42, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
*********** Only difference between mob1 and mob2 is the fixed spacing in the description part. Mob2 will fit as many words per line as it can, Mob1 is game identical. Mob2 works better if you have a low resolution / large font -- more versatile. I have... none of those, hah. Basically only Steam and IRC, skace on both - irc.undernet.org or irc.gamesurge.net. Ummm I'm ingame also but mostly idle. Heading home in a sec but need to fix my router so I probably won't be available until later tonight. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 18:49, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
************ I have no clue what I was thinking, I saw the justified text and it didn't register. I like the first version as more mud-friendly, I think the fixed width boxes might overflow sometimes, though. The MUD-style appearance for EQ and IDs is amazing, we should implement it ASAP.
************* Boxes won't overflow, you need to do some testing with large font size / small window, but basically the box size is only a max size. It can still shrink. It's different from a fixed box width. Works pretty slick if you play around with your window size and watch how the boxes resize with it (Try increasing your font several magnitudes to test with). By the way, new router is up and running so I should be good for whatever. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 20:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
************** I meant overflow if you have more than 72/80 characters per line, but I see now it's wrapping. So it won't preserve the MUD's structure, will it... By the way, you shouldn't really use a load of nbsps, you should assign white-space: pre; to your css and just add the appropriate amount of spaces. This technique will not work with IE5, which makes me like it even more. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 23:25, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
*************** The way I'm doing it will wrap, but the box is large enough so that if you have it at max width, it shouldn't naturally wrap the game, because 600px is larger than what the game supports. If you have the window smaller than 600px, it will shrink and wrap, but that is more readable for someone who has that resolution. This is working differently than a pre tag which wouldn't wrap. I'll make an example with pre so that the difference is more obvious. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 23:44, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
**************** It only wraps with <br /> tags, which we can't ask people to add to every item... --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 23:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
<br />
* Hello Poro, long time no see! Due to some changes in the Common.css file, that [[Template:Iteminfo|template I made ages ago]] is now working. It doesn't like <nowiki><pre></nowiki> tags (ie: Identify pastes), but it doesn't let the text overlap it anymore. As long as you don't use the pre tag. However, there isn't any item with a single line long enough to reach the template on the other side of the page! I could create an Identify template, just to be safe, but I'll politely wait for your opinion on the matter before I pour more energy into this. --{{User:Trinexx/sig2}} 08:06, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
** Hey man, long time indeed! Since all the text in RoD wraps at 72 or eight columns, I don't think it'll be a problem... Go ahead if you want to try something out or anything, but there's really no pressing need to do it, I don't think... Cheers! --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 11:00, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
*** Yeah, I see that the wiki has come a long way since I was last here, but I just wanted to get some closure on that mini-project. The only advantage it has over the templates currently in use is purely cosmetic. --{{User:Trinexx/sig2}} 16:11, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

== Item template bugged ==

Example: http://rodpedia.poromenos.org/wiki/A_delicate_ring_of_garnet_petals

I can't figure out why it's showing an extra "[[Category: ]]", can you please fix this?

* Hmm, I don't see this... Where is it showing?

** Hmm, it's gone now, nevermind I guess. It was showing just above the Categories section. But now all items have an extra empty line in the Identify section when it didn't have before. http://rodpedia.poromenos.org/wiki/Tornado for example, dunno if it's me or not
*** Hope someone can revert the item template back to a working state without the strange bugs like extra blank line in the Identify section. Update: Figured out why, if you're not logged in, you can see the buggy state of things like broken header templates etc, but if you're logged in everything looks fine.
****This was me making some improvements, hopefully everything is squared away. If you need to, yell at me over at [[User talk:Stolichnaya]] [[User:Stolichnaya|Stolichnaya]] 20:51, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
***** As long as everything works fine afterwards, I encourage improvements. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 11:13, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

== flattr box ==
* The flatter box on the left column is throwing errors, occasionally it'll show 502 but most of the time it's just an exclamation mark with an orange box underneath that says Error --[[User:Stolichnaya|Stolichnaya]] 15:35, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
** Thanks for that, I should remove it, I don't think anyone ever clicked it... --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 10:22, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Poromenos: /* Guidelines */

'''IMPORTANT:''' Editors, please see this page's [[Help_talk:Editing|Talk Page]] for important discussion on style. Also, click "Watch" above this page to be notified of changes.

== Guidelines ==

* The syntax used for editing this site is the same as Wikipedia. Syntax help can be found on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page this page].

* To upload a file, click the "Upload file" link on the toolbox to the left of the page.

* If something in your sentence is an item, area, mob, spell, class, race, ability, etc, you should link to it. For example, if you mention somewhere in a sentence the area [[A Moment in Nature]], it should be linked (and make sure it's spelled correctly). Linking wherever it is mentioned rather than once in paragraphs/texts is encouraged.

* When areas/items/mobs are removed, instead of being deleted the pages should be added to the OOG category.

* When the mob/area/item name has an article before it (the Ring of Wizardry, A bamboo canteen, the Village of Tar'pa Cithm), it should be added in the category with the article moved to the end, like so: <nowiki>[[Category:Items|Ring of Wizardry, the]], [[Category:Items|bamboo canteen, A]], [[Category:Items|Village of Tar'pa Cithm, the]]</nowiki>. Please mind the capitalisation.

* All the article names must have '''ONLY''' their first letter capitalised, "Like this", unless it is an item/area/whatever name, in which case it must be written exactly as it is. If the wiki capitalises the first letter of the name, so be it.

* All the headline titles <nowiki>(== These Lines ==)</nowiki> must have the first letter of '''EVERY''' word capitalised, except the rare case when they are names, in which case they must be written verbatim.

* The category names must follow the headline capitalisation scheme, which is to capitalise every first letter.

* The map upload names should be the area name, stripped of any spaces and special characters so that only letters remain, with the first letter capitalised and all others lowercase (including the extension). For example, Thevillageoftarpacithm.png. The '''strongly''' preferred image format is png.

* Definitions should be written in singular form and expanded whenever possible (e.g. Mobile instead of Mobiles or Mobs or Mob, Area instead of Areas, Repopulation instead of Repop). If the expanded form is not widely used, redirects are to be set up to the article using this keyword:
<pre>#REDIRECT [[<page name>]]</pre>
For example, the ONLY text in the page "Mob" should be:
<pre>#REDIRECT <nowiki>[[Mobile]]</nowiki></pre>

* When uploading maps, don't write anything in the "Summary" box.

== Areas ==

See: [[Template:Area]]

To find an area's Geo, see [http://www.geocities.com/kimseym/rod/areas.htm here]. Also, the Geo categories are '''not''', for example, "Otherlands", but "Otherlands Geo". That ensures that it doesn't conflict with the actual area category.

Repop messages are available [http://www.tokai.ws/misc/repops.htm here], portal points [http://gom.mivok.net/astralguide.html here]. The portal points should not be linked (they are keywords more than actual mobs).

== Mobs ==

See: [[Template:Mob]]

'''WARNING:''' The mob article name is meant to be in all lowercase (except for the first letter, which the wiki will convert automatically anyway). This is because when you fight mobs, many change capitalization to lowercase, and it is also easier to find them, so make sure you uphold this rule.

== Items ==

See: [[Template:Item]]

'''IMPORTANT NOTE:''' Instead of writing the item pages yourself, you should [http://mailhide.recaptcha.net/d?k=01id9BmInTJT9NxFwVJZLhHA==&c=wSuefyImDxELWZ39oGILD_pRecjwZZVT7HaCBFDjdIg= email me] the list of IDs you have, along with area/mob of each item and any notes you may have. I will add the pages you send me automatically, so it's faster and easier for everyone. The items should follow the following format:

:Item ID
:Mob <mob name>
:Area <area name>
:Notes <a note you want to include in the page's "Notes" section>
:Notes <another note>

You can also add these tags as they apply:

:Mob Area pop
:Mob [Special]
:Area None
:Notes Pop
:Notes OOG
:Notes Creation item

Using the brackets for the "Special" mob means that there won't be a link, e.g if there is no mob (for area pops), just write "Mob [None]". If you omit the braces, there will be a link to "None" on the page.

== Skills/Spells ==

See: [[Template:Spell]]

'''WARNING:''' The skill article name MUST have '''ONLY''' its first letter capitalised (no matter what the name), otherwise it will not be accessible from the slist pages.

== Scripts ==

<pre>
== Functionality ==

<A description of what the script does, along with author's name/RoDpedia page>

== MUSHclient/ZMUD/Gmud code <select the one that applies, or use multiple sections> ==

<The actual script in code, with each line indented by one space>

<nowiki>[[Category:Scripts]]
[[Category:MUSHclient]]
[[Category:ZMud]]
[[Category:Gmud]]
</nowiki></pre>

Only add the category of the client for which the script is written (or multiple clients, if there are many versions of the script). The script's name should be of the format "<script name> (script)", where "script name" is something fairly descriptive to avoid name clashes. For an example, see [[Fly_trigger_(script)]].

== Organisations ==

<pre>
== General Information ==

* Motto: <Organization motto, if applicable>
* Description: <Organization description>
* Headquarters: <Area name or directions, if no area exists>

== Stubs ==

If you have found an article that is not very extensive, or you want to create an article but you don't know how, create it and add the keyword <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> at the bottom of it. This will display a notice that it should be extended and will add it to the [[:Category:Stubs|Stubs category]] so that people can find and expand it.

== Cleanups ==

If you have found an article whose quality is not on par with the rest of the site, please clean it up or add a <nowiki>{{cleanup}}</nowiki> keyword to the top of it. This will display a notice that it should be cleaned up and add it to the [[:Category:Cleanup|Cleanup category]] so that people can find and edit it.

== Duplicates ==

Pages which have the same name fall under disambiguation. Read below to understand how to separate out these pages.

'''NOTE:''' To create a disambiguation page, you should redirect the original page to another with the exact same title but with the word "(disambiguation)" added to it. For example, the page "[[french Lace Cuffs]]" redirects to "[[french Lace Cuffs (disambiguation)]]", and this template goes in the disambiguation page.

<pre>
There are mutiple articles with this name, please select the one you need from the list below:

* <nowiki>[[<article 1>]]</nowiki> <short description, if necessary>

Poromenos: Reverted edits by Montgomery767574 (Talk) to last revision by Dunec

{{Deitymenu}}
'''Bael''' is one of [[Vl'aresch]]'s strongest companions. Born from the blood of [[Vl'aresch]]'s deadliest battle with [[A'enari]], he is a shadowy figure which roams the earth, reveling in the evil about him. His love for blood and death is legendary. Mortals who see him bring back varied stories, ranging from a tall figure with eyes the color of the blood he so loves who spends his time tormenting those around him to a burning flame which ravages the land he passes over. Bael is brought forth only by the strongest and most evil of souls, for they are the only ones who can survive his presence.

Bael only accepts those of evil heart, through and through, others will never gain his affection. All manners of death are acceptable to him: magical, thieving and purely physical. He favors those that desecrate the resting places of others, as well as those that sacrifice in his name. Bael reveres above all else the killing of gods as he feels he should be the only one. Only those of the [[Drow]], [[Gith]], or [[Lizardman]] races who are [[Vampire]]s, [[Nephandi]] or [[Warrior]]s are accepted by this dark god.

== Maps ==

There is a decision to make regarding maps. There are some that are huge, and take long to load and cause the page to scroll horizontally. As I see it, there are three paths to be taken:

# Leave maps as they are, scrolling the page but being readable.
# Downsize large maps to 600px or so, making a few illegible but keeping the page layout, and making the user click two links to get to the large map.
# Linking directly to the large map, but not displaying it on the page.
# Having a thumbnail to the right of the page and a caption on it that leads directly to the large version.

Please vote below, signing your vote. Unsigned votes will not count. Sign with <nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki>

* I vote for 1, I believe this will look best and also have the most functionality for small maps. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 17:46, 11 September 2005 (CDT)
* #1, unless the map is unbelievably huge like above 2Mb, then #2 --[[User:Mezzanine|Mezzanine]] 10:06, 12 September 2005 (CDT)
* I prefer #1 too. Generally when you've navigated to an area page, a fully readable map is the reason. --[[User:Tokai|Tokai]] 12:08, 13 September 2005 (CDT)
** Both good points, I will change the maps and the template. [[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 06:28, 13 September 2005 (CDT)

'''This issue has been resolved. Maps will remain as they are, without downsizing.'''

== Guidelines ==
Should be an entry on how new page names should be created.. Soon will have a mix of pages with articles an/a/the on front, and end. --[[User:Dunec|Jaxxon]] 17:46, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

* All pages should be named exactly as they appear in the MUD, and categorised as specified (with the article removed). --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 19:56, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
Is it still the policy that Cnames should be capitalized, in order to prevent Category lists from Grouping items A/B/C/a/b/c ? I thought it was covered in the template, or this help page, but can no longer find what I'm thinking about. --[[User:Dunec|Jaxxon]] 14:09, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
* Figures, I found it after posting [[Cname]] --[[User:Dunec|Jaxxon]] 14:10, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

* Another question: I just noticed that some (newer?) pages don't seem to be available to non-users (try logging out and looking at Category:The Barren Wastes.) Is something wrong with the way I'm posting? --[[User:Meddon|Meddon]] 08:03, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
** That seems to be a caching issue, I've cleared the cache and results appeared, hopefully it'll keep working now. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 14:27, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Sil-Galith

2010-06-02T01:19:37Z

Poromenos:

{{Deitymenu}}
'''Sil-Galith''' was born from the darkness as the earth of the new realms shook and mountains were formed. At that moment, a love of these creations filled her heart and she chose as her kingdom the mountains of [[Moria]]. Hidden deep away the lands around her, taking great delight as the lands shifted and new mountain ranges were formed. She took very little interest in how her creations, however, affected the mortals around her. In fact, Sil-Galith has been known in some moments to reshape the land just to spite these puny beings.

Having little desire for mortal followers, Sil-Galith is very difficult to appease. She despises frailty and only accepts the more sturdy races; Dwarf, Half-Troll and Half-Ogre. Only death and sacrificing the remains of foes in her name appeases this goddess, especially the deaths of her foes, the lizardmen.

** Done. [[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 07:14, 23 November 2005 (EST)

* Just out of curiosity, thought I might mention. When someone comes to the main page, they'd really like clickable links for the main sections, Mobs, Areas, Items, Classes/Races, etc. And, when you do click on areas, why is the first list of areas actually a list of Mob/Item lists for that area. For instance, if I go to the area page looking for something, say, on Mithril Hall, the first time I see Mithril Hall I click on it, but it's not a map or info on the area, it's a page with all the links to items and mobs. just a thought, nothing more. Love the page. :-)
** That is a good observation. Unfortunately, I can't do anything about it since the only up to date list is the Areas category page :/ It is an issue, since newcomers will wonder where the actual areas are, but there's nothing effective that can be done about it, sadly :/. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 07:57, 17 January 2007 (EST)

* I think it might be preferable to have the section on the main page which is currently assigned to the Items category changed to the Information category. Items is largely incomplete and Information really does have some decent content in there. What do you reckon? -[[User:Tokai|Tokai]] 05:16, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

*New main page is still in progress, I'm not the best at layout, but wanted to try and outline all of the information that a portal into a video game would probably relay. Anyhow, thoughts? I understand that a lot of items still aren't populated and the class pages aren't very robust right now, but I think drawing people's attention to those pages should get them updated quicker than burying that information. [[User:Skace|Skace]] 08:38, 28 May 2008 (CDT)
** Hmm, indeed. I like it, update the frontpage if you want (do you have the ability? If not, I can do it) when you think it is good enough for it. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 18:00, 28 May 2008 (CDT)

* I was wondering if the Big "AREAS" link on the frontpage could link to [http://rodpedia.poromenos.org/wiki/Category:Areas Category Areas] instead? the Alphabetical list looks better to me and easier to find stuff than the Collapsed menu. --[[User:Dunec|Dunec]] 02:04, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
** Hmm, well, I can definitely see how linking to the Areas article is beneficial, but you have a point as well... Skace, can we include the box in the areas template so it appears on the bottom of every area page? Also, is it possible for us/me to write a small PHP script to get the areas for that box live, instead of having us duplicate all the info? --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 09:51, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
*** Well, the link is changed on the main page, not sure what you are asking for Poro? Live box? --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 03:13, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
**** Right now we have to write all the areas in the box list so we get the collapsible box. Is there a way to do that with a PHP script that will get its areas from the pages in the Areas category, so we don't have to change two places whenever a new area is added? --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 10:52, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
***** Don't know much about PHP and how we'd write that. I guess the question is, are the areas in the game changing rapidly enough to justify that? I was under the impression that they are relatively static. --[[User:Skace|Skace]] 10:27, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
****** Hmm yes, but there are now three places we must add areas to, and I'd rather there only were one. I know enough PHP to write that, but I'm not sure it can actually be written. I might ask the guys in IRC later on. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 10:56, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

*Hello everyone! I just wanted to greet everyone, and let you know I plan to update and add some things to this wiki. I added a box for Race to the main page, and fixed up the xp rate and hometowns for each race. I was considering a Deity Box also, but wanted feedback on whether this would be useful on the main page, and how to arrange it most efficiently. (by sect,pri/sec,etc) I am also currently working on a project to determine max/min inital stats for different races/classes. Sometime, I will also add the physical description choices for each race as well. If anyone has any problems or suggestions, please feel free to contact me, or leave a note on my page.

*Just FYI, Search has been broken for a couple days now. --[[User:Dunec|Jaxxon]] 18:52, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
** Fixed, thanks. MySQL sucks. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 20:42, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

*Can't pull up any areas or items, giving me 404's --[[User:Dunec|Jaxxon]] 23:26, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
** I upgraded the wiki and some things are broken, please email me if you come across any more errors like this. It's hopefully fixed now. --[[User:Poromenos|Poromenos]] 00:58, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

* JohnsonDonna, a new account created is a spammer spamming links to unrelated websites.

Danbala Wedo

2010-04-12T16:02:17Z

Poromenos:

{{ stub }}

== General ==

* Area: [[La Chute D'eau De L'ancients]]
* Status: [[Aggressive mob|Aggressive]]
* Detects: Unknown
* Mob Alignment: [[Neutral alignment|Neutral]]

== Directions ==

* To Lachute : #6 n;#6 e;se;e;ne;ne;e;nw;n;n;ne;ne;w;nw;nw;e;n;n;ne;n;ne;w;w

* To Prep area; n;u
* To Danbala; n;get key;un e;op e;drop key;e;e;ne

== Description ==

The dark form of Danbala Wedo lies stretched out before you. His long
body is coiled in the shadows so it is hard to tell how large he is. Rising
from the pile of dark scales is a large head, hooded and slowly weaving
back and forth in the silence. Lighter colored scales form strange patterns
up the underside of Danbala's neck, then slowly turn darker again. His
eyes glitter with ancient knowledge of the gods. Venom drips off two
large fangs as he opens his mouth to hiss at you for intruding in his
chamber.

== Equipment ==

* [[the ring of the ancient gods]]
* [[the Snake's eye]] ([[Pop item|pop]])
* [[the essence of kundalini]] ([[Pop item|pop]])
* [[the skull of Danbala]] (rare [[Pop item|pop]])
* [[the ancient sight of the snake]] (very rare [[Pop item|pop]])

== Run Instructions ==

* Characters: 4 [[fighter|fighters]], preferably [[warrior|warriors]]
* Weapons: Any
* [[Tunnel]]: 4 + [[mobile|mob]]
* [[IP check]]: One

=== Protective Spells ===

* Spells for [[tank]]: [[Basic spells]], full [[tankset]], [[acidward]]
* Spells for others: [[Basic spells]], full [[tankset]], [[acidward]]
* [[Elemental shields]]: [[Fireshield]], [[Iceshield]], [[Shockshield]]

== Notes ==

Don't [[disarm]] or [[rescue]]! Danbala has several nasty progs for when you do this, so don't. Set your [[wimpy]], around 800. Make sure you [[create spring|create a spring]] as soon as you get into the room. You may wish to bring a fifth warrior, even though Danny's room is only [[tunnel|tunneled]] to five (minus the mob himself, of course, which means four players can get in), just to act as a backup and hopefully make the run a little easier. Be careful though, because the room outside his one is [[tunnel|tunneled]] to two, so if two people are idling there then the rest are trapped. Don't log off or disappear into the void, or you'll be sent right back to the entrance of the area. You also need about 1000 [[heal|heals]] to take on Danbala (assuming you're going to kill him a few times, of course).

Avoid using empty head containers from the [[Northern Trade Route]]; Danbala has been found to heal himself significantly when someone quaffs heals from such container.

== Zistrosk's Danbala Run Notes ==

Stuff to have to prepare:
# As many warriors as you can tote that have 1600+ hp and good resists (plate of ravager, etc)
# At least three tanksets per character brought along, and all the heals they can carry
# Plenty of Staff of Barad-Dur (fireshield), Jade Cameo (iceshield), and Sorcerer's Walking Stick (shockshield).
# At least one extra cleric and mage for spelling up, brandishing, etc.
# 5+ hours of time (1-2 hours to trans & get up there, 40 minutes per repop)
# Any extra AV characters you can spare to carry extra heals, tanksets, staffs, etc.

Walkthrough for the run:

1. Go to LaChute
from dh square: #6 n;#6 e;se;e;ne;ne;e;nw;n;n;ne;ne;w;nw;nw;e;n;n;ne;n;ne;w;w

2. Chop Through The Briars (need 20 STR or more to proceed)
chop;se;chop;sw;chop;w;chop;w;chop;s;chop;sw;chop;w;chop;nw;chop;w;chop;w;chop;nw;ne
Dirs without chop commands: SE SW W W S SW W NW W W NW NE
Last room is "Piercing Shafts of Light in the Darkness"

3. Get to the room before the fire demons
n,n,ne,u,e,ne,e,u,u,u, spell up in room "Clinging to the Side" to kill demons

4. Kill some demons, and then enter the fire maze
w,u,u,n,u,u, room "A Glimpse of the Peak" - glowing mirage healer mob, individually follow the tunneled path north (n;nw;u;u;u;u;u;ne;u) and regroup at "Before the Doord of the Oufo", then n,e,n,n,w,w,type window at "Before a Stained-Glass Window" and you're in the fire maze

5. Map the Fire Maze: "Floating in Fire"

When you enter the maze have everyone sit except the one that's mapping the maze. There are four exits from that room, N, S, E and W. Three of these rooms are magic, and one is not. Pick a character that can track, and make springs/fires to map it. Have them pick a direction, and try to make a spring or fire there. Track back to sitters. Repeat until you find which of the four exits is the nonmagic room. Move one (or all) sitting character(s) into the nonmagic room. From the nonmagic room, there are 2 magic and 2 nonmagic rooms, so repeat the spring creation and tracking back until you've marked both magic rooms, only mark them differently (like two springs in one and two fires in another or whatever). One of these two magic rooms is the trans room out of the maze. There are several ways to figure out which room it is. You can place characters in them, and wait to see which one transes. You can SCAN ALL, and one room will repeatedly show over and over in one direction, and another will be a bunch of empty rooms and maybe a repat of your markings after a couple rooms - it is this second room that is the trans room (the inconsistent one). The third way is to log off a character in each room, and the room that transes you back to the beginning of the area on log out is the trans room - and since you have sitting characters still near there it's easy enough to get back to where you were. So to sum it up:

5a. Find nonmag room, go there. (This an excellent time to check your aquabreath on all characters!!)<br />
5b. Find magic rooms, figure out which of the two of them is the trans room.<br />
5c. Spend the next 20-45 minutes transing through.<br />

6. Transing through the maze.
You will see various trans messages while you're waiting to complete your trans through the fire maze, Tunnels of Darkness, and Escape From the Tunnels. Here are the messages you will see:
A blinding flame surrounds you, scorching your armor and pulling you into a black void...
You are momentarily encased in a column of blinding light.
A cloud of energy waves surrounds you suddenly, drawing you deeper into the moutain...
--When you see this last trans message, you'll be in "A Watery Channel" and will have trans'd out of the maze and tunnels. I recommend using a trigger, if you have
zMud
, to automatically keep from drowning:
--for
Zmud
, use #trigger {^A cloud of energy waves surrounds you suddenly} {up;up;say place my feet on the ground again;gt transed through!} "lachute"

6a. Once you've transed through to "A Watery Channel" make sure you enter the following commands:
u,u,say place my feet on the ground again

7. On to "A Final Ascent"
ne,e, open drain at "A Dripping Fissure",e,spell up for some more killing!

8. Switch to Magic Weapons, Kill Oya, Oshun, Obatala, Eleggua, get key from Eleggua, say I am ready now to face danbala
First Switch to Magic Weapons, they are necessary to hit Oshun. Nonmag will hit Oya, Obatala, and Eleggua fine.
u,kill Oya (Aggro, easy kill - 3 rounds or less with full group)
e,kill Oshun (Aggro, little harder, gasses, 4-5 rounds with full group, suscept to Virtue)
ne,kill Obatala (Aggro, little harder, gasses, spells self up with shockshield, 5-6 rounds with full group, Virtue hits)
U,u,u,kill Eleggua (Aggro, hardest of the four, 6-7 rounds with full group)
MAKE SURE YOU GET THE BLUE CRYSTAL KEY FROM ELEGGUA!! -- you'll need this later.
to move on, say I am ready now to face danbala

8a. Note - If you are returning, and don't have a large group to kill the four, you can flee past them. When you get past Obatala, you can rest and heal before going up to Eleggua. Once in Eleggua's room, there is no need to kill her as long as someone has already gotten the key, just "say I am ready now to face danbala" and you'll be transed to the next room in midfight. Fleeing past might take a few tries, since there are other rooms to flee into, but is effective as long as you're spelled up. It might be just as easy to go ahead and forgo this fight, and if you have
zMud
, trigger all of your characters with :
. #trigger {An Eerie Blue Glow} {say I am ready now to face danbala} "lachute"
(to disable this class, type #t- lachute, and to enable it type #t+ lachute)

9. Set up camp in room named "Still on the Pathway"
n,u,rest

9a. Fly is not required to remain in this room, though the room descrip leads one to believe that it is

9b. Alts should rest to wait shields out here

9c. Do not log out here, just go linkdead with alts, or else you will be trans'd back to the start of the area

10. Spell up for the kill

10a. Everyone follow an alt that is going to be linkdead for the kill. Do not follow a char that will participate in the kill, so that there are no accidental movements by any tank character.

10b. All eligible tank characters that MIGHT be used for the kill should spell up. If one of your tank chars dies, log them out, and then reconnect on another and join the fight -- with spells already on you, you can just run in and beat on him and not endanger the other tanks by taking a long time to quaff tanksets.

10c. Someone make a mystical spring, everyone drink at least once

10d. Everyone that is spelling up should quaff a dispel magic - all spells should be fresh

10e. Each tank character quaffs a tankset. If you have
zmud
, here's a handy alias you can use which allows you to quaff a full tankset from whichever container you have. The command is qtank, and to use it just follow it with the name of the container that has the potions in it. For example, if you have a tankset in a rune covered bag, type : qtank rune<br />
<code><nowiki>#ALIAS qtank {#show quaff tank spells;c 'create spring';quaff 'stone skin' %1;quaff blazeward %1;quaff valiance %1;quaff protection %1;quaff eldritch %1;quaff shockshield %1;quaff antimagic %1;quaff demonskin %1;drink mystical;quaff 'inner warmth' %1;quaff ethereal %1;quaff shadowform %1;quaff dragonskin %1;drink mystical;get true %1;#show DON'T FORGET TO QUAFF TRUESIGHT!!! : quaff true %1} "tankset"</nowiki></code><br />
10f. Have a cleric cast acid ward, holy sanctity, minor invocation, brandish a staff of barad-dur (fireshield), brandish a jade cameo (iceshield), brandish a sorceror's walking stick (shockshield)

10g. Have a mage cast prismatic shield on each tank.

10h. Right before linkdeading alts, have a cleric cast holy indignation (fury of the high gods)

10i. Everyone linkdead but the 3 or 4 tanks to make the kill.

11. Kick Danbala's medieval arse

11a. Go north from where all the alts are linkdead. MAKE SURE YOU ARE IP1!

11b. Check Fly! Don't fall into the DT, have FLY ON!!

11c. Whomever has the blue key, unlock gate, open gate, drop key

11d. Style Evasive

11j. First one in grouptalks GO! and then goes NE and quaff spring, starts fight

11k. Everyone else rushes in, 2e, ne, joins fight

12. As the fight progresses...

12a. Quaff 8 heals, drink spring, repeat, as fast as you can.

12b. If you autoflee out, quaff up to full as fast as you can, reenter battle. DO NOT HOG this room or others cannot flee, and they will die because of you!!

12c. At "Nasty Wounds" you can style up to Standard

12d. At "DYING" you can style up again

12e. You'll typically use between 120 and 200 heals per kill.

13. After the fight is over...

13a. Someone has to loot (Detect Invis Required!), and then everyone should get out of Danbala's lair right away. Danbala will pop some, or all, of the following items: ring of the ancient gods, essence of kundalini, and/or Snake's eye. Rarely, he'll pop a Danbala Skull or The Ancient Sight Of The Snake (mega-rare).

13b. Reconnect alts

13c. Clerics fortify or heal to save heal potions and bring tanks back up to full.

13d. Sit and wait for spells to run out for next fight.

Armor Class

2010-04-08T15:01:56Z

Poromenos:

{{ stub }}
<blockquote>
Armor Class (AC) is a scale of how well protected you are against physical
attacks. Until level 25, your armor class is displayed only as a description.
For example, 'The rags of a beggar' is a very poor AC while 'That of an
avatar' is a very good AC.

After level 25 you will see your AC as a number. The lower (More negative) the
number, the better protected you are from physical attacks.

----
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your armor class is determined by your attributes (Dexterity noticeably) and
by the equipment you wear. When you identify equipment, you will see that all
pieces of itemtype armor have their armor class shown. In addition to showing
the item's own durability (An item of AC 10 will take twice as many hits to
destroy than an item with AC 5), the item's AC can also affect your AC when
you are wearing it.

Items worn on extremities or wielded will not have any effect on the wearer's
AC, but most wear locations will subtract the item's AC from the wearer's. Key
locations (Body, Legs, Head) will multiply the item's AC by 2 or 3 and
subtract that value (Remember, the more negative a player's AC is, the better).
Additionally, in 'identify' you will see that some items "Affect AC by" a
number, the more negative this number, the better (Obviously).
