- AssaCom, a new account created is a Russian spammer spamming links to unrelated websites.--Stat 10:28, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for that, banned. If this continues I'm thinking of removing automatic user registration and have people email me or another administrator to add an account. There are about four active users nowadays anyway. --Poromenos 12:01, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
- Please make link to RoD go to www.realmsofdespair.com instead of game.org --Thoric 17:46, 22 November 2005 (EST)
- Done. 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 :/. --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? -Tokai 05:16, 19 August 2007 (CDT)
- I'd say that is a good idea, I have unlocked the homepage (since new user registration is disabled anyway) so you can have your way with it. --Poromenos 18:34, 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.

- 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. --Poromenos 18:00, 28 May 2008 (CDT)
- I was wondering if the Big "AREAS" link on the frontpage could link to Category Areas instead? the Alphabetical list looks better to me and easier to find stuff than the Collapsed menu. --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? --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? --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? --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. --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. --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. --Jaxxon 18:52, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
- Fixed, thanks. MySQL sucks. --Poromenos 20:42, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
- Can't pull up any areas or items, giving me 404's --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. --Poromenos 00:58, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
