What did I do? Gave an opinion. I violated nothing. Solus 02:19, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

There is no point coming here, making silly discussion pages, make fake treason lists and make stupid votes on the soon to be wipe builds and then have answers like Though it makes me sad, I relize that it is necessary. Readem (talk*contribs) 00:59, 5 April 2007 (CDT)". Yeh, I wonder why. Solus 02:27, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

Archiving Builds

Solus, I've now run into archived 3 builds in which you forgot to remove the category tags. If you do it again, I shall have to hit you upside the head with my Tormented Staff. -- <!--Zerris--> 04:29, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Make that 4. -- <!--Zerris--> 04:36, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Build talk:Mo/E SoD Grasping Monk

Auron has pointed out to me that you may have meant Return and not Recall, I think there was a misunderstanding. I do think my comment reguarding Recall is justified though.. — Skuld 04:42, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

ololl, solus got pwned! 62.100.33.180 04:46, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

.... Well....... Grasping earth is an effect snare no doubt, but recall is instant, cripples attackers and gets you out of present danger. I don't really need to justify my answer, nor do you need to insult me (yet again). Solus 05:56, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Just FYI, /E is for Glyph of Lesser Energy primarily and Grasping Earth second, SoD is a real energy drain. — Skuld 05:59, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

May bad on my be-half, you just seriously over-react. Solus 05:57, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Aegis ftw, which I need to add triva about. Solus 06:01, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Notice

Your edit here is a violation of GW:1RV. If an edit is removed, take it to the talk page and try to reach concensus, do not automatically re-insert the text. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 10:55, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

I presented my case to Fyren, as the information may be hard to understand to someone without an idea on the topic(I do not mean that in an offence manner). Fyren did not take the time to understand the information I provided in the Triva and simply revert under no circumstances without a given reason. It is hard to explan the intentions of the author of the novel as it is over 2,500 years old, but there are several references in the book relating to Zeus and how he judges Aegisthus, he believed his judgement was similar for all mortals, thus relating to Aegis which may have connections to judgement or first impressions. As far as I know, the informatin was rather accurate and the revert made by Fyren was unneccsary. Correct me if I'm wrong, but instances like this were Admins/User have revert correct information from a article, so tell me how these situtions were resolved? Solus 11:03, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

I wasn't going to get involved in the discussion yet - just pointing out the policy issue. I'll post my thoughts on the discussion over there. However, it appears from the time-stamps that your re-inserting of the text took place before any discussion was even started - which would be a policy violation. If the discussion with you and Fyren took place before the re-insertion of the text, then I appologize. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 11:17, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Then I am sorry, I may have jumped the gun to quick, but the revert by Fyren was completely uneccsary. I will review the sitution and polices in situtions like this. Solus 11:20, 17 April 2007 (CDT)

Qualifier Points

What are the Qualifier Points found at the top of a guild window, above Faction? Leina 04:02, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Points earned for Guilds to complete in tournaments. Solus 03:52, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Can I get more info on this? How do you get these points? What tournaments etc? Leina 04:02, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

You earn these from doing small tournaments, which allow you to enter the major monthly tournaments held at the end of each month with 20 points. Being on GvG and HvH ladders should earn you these. I'm not 100% sure though. Solus

Ha ha. Must be a glitch then. My guild has 3.6billion ha ha ha. Leina 04:41, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Your Starwars userbox

Shouldn't it be "a Starwars fan" ?

Probably. Solus 22:19, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Congratulations

You received third place in my joke skill contest! Nice job. *Defiant Elements* +talk 23:23, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

It was a contest? Lol... Solus 23:27, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Yeah. *Defiant Elements* +talk 23:37, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

This user has undermined Anet.

O.o -- <!--Zerris--> 00:33, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

In respone to dark marine, Please do not post on my usertalk, ever. And it's a joke, just like Zerris's userbox "Healing Signet and Frenzy have great syngery". I do feel rather special though. Solus 01:23, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

o.O

Those images were cropped pretty poorly. Mind if I crop off the white mess and re-upload em? Or did you leave em that way for a reason? -Auron 03:22, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

knock yourself out, I rushed em and didn't really care lol. Solus 05:55, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

Fable

Is your nickname coming from Fable? Cuz I play that game, and there was an uuber sword (best sword in the game, wich I happen to have, because I had an error and now I have 9999999999999999999999 money:P) and that was called Solus' Greatsword, just played the game and I immediatly tought of you. —SigmA 14:08, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

Did you give Solus's greatsword a good polishing? — Skuld 14:09, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

I've used it for a couple of years, but I orginial got it from the Greatsword. Solus 19:07, 21 April 2007 (CDT)

just fyi, solus is the root of solitary, solitude, soliloquy etc; meaning "alone". — Skuld 16:48, 25 April 2007 (CDT)

Ryan (my name) means "little King", should I switch to that instead? Solus 17:01, 26 April 2007 (CDT)

You revert

I contest your revert of my revert of the changes made to the Scams article.

1) On "Ferrying"

Of course it is a scam. Look at the Lion's Arch article. It is a well-known fact that you do not need a ferry to reach LA. All you need to do is go visit a certain Guild Hall and you will be taken there for free. As such, there is NO reason EVER to pay for any such "ferrying" from Nightfall or Factions to LA. And that makes it a scam. Charging money for a free service is scamming. If you have a counter-argument to that, please enlighten me.

2) On Begging

The Begging note has been in the article since forever. Every single time someone has removed it, their change has been reverted and the note restored. Neither Guild Wars nor GuildWiki supports begging. You can argue that "we don't need a note against it" because in lieu of support for begging, it is implied that we do not support it, and/or that we are neutral on the issue. However, I ask you this: What is the harm in having such a common-sense, cautionary note in the Article? Anyone who has ever played an online game such as GW, WoW, whatever can attest that there are unscrupulous individuals out there who will take advantage of the poor fools who are ignorant enough to "loan" them money. Now, I have no way to tell just how many people are honest in repaying their loans, and how many aren't. But I am willing to bet that the vast majority of people who beg for loans "for my armor", "for skills", whatever, do not actually need the money and/or have a malicious intent to take a poor newbie's money and never return to them. ANet is painfully slow in reponding to such petty theft (as it's rarely more than a few plat), since they are more concerned with investigating "real" crimes such as "item duplication" scammers and such.

If we will not warn people about the dishonesty of beggars, who will? The players themselves? Unfortunately, I've heard more than enough "scammed by beggars" tales to know that this is sadly inadequate. Moreover, even those "honest beggars" who actually "need" the money because of...I dunno...being the victim of a scammer themselves, are really not deserving of help anyways. You can argue against it, but my philosophy (shared by most players) is that in Guild Wars, you pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. You don't beg for money and items from other players. Money is easy enough to come by that no one should really have to ever resort to begging. I mean, honestly - I have seen beggars standing around in Droknar's Forge for hours and hours, asking for like 100 gold "to complete my armor set" or whatever. But seriously - in that amount of time they wasted, I could have made 3-4 plat just by killing monsters right outside the door. This is the same for every place in the game; since even if you were (hypothetically) level 1 when arriving in Post-Searing, monsters are not enough of a challenge that you will be unduly pressed for money and items. Work hard and earn your own wealth; don't leech off the poor altruists. It is one thing to accept charity from a kind player who has no qualms about perhaps losing what they give you forever; it is another to constantly spam the channels with panhandling messages. It irritates everyone and helps nobody. And like I stated previously - there are few "honest beggars" out there compared to malicious ones. And that, is why I think it deserves a note in the Scams article. If you disagree, please explain why. (T/C) 00:07, 28 April 2007 (CDT)

Ferrying is not scamming, you can always to somewhere for free, or you can be run there. Ferrying, is basically running. Running isn't scamming, begging is begging, not scamming. Please keep tht crap off my talk page, ferrying IS RUNNING NOT SCAMMING. Borrowing money without intention of returning is scamming, begging isn't. Solus 00:14, 28 April 2007 (CDT)

Ferrying in general is not scamming. Ferrying to LA is.

Begging in generneral is not scaming. The article specifically referred to begging to barrow, which you stated is scamming. Thedarkmarine 00:26, 28 April 2007 (CDT)
