Bowman First Job Skill Builds
Hey Isaac, with the bowmans first job skill build, which is better; Arrow Blow or Double Shot? I read like a lot of guides and literally 90% of them keeps saying "Arrow Blow is worthless, DONT PUT IT ON". Since you have a ranger yourself, what do you recommend? --Jezza 20:44, 29 June 2008 (CDT)

My Cleric Guide
Hey isaac, check out my guide at "http://www.maplewiki.net/index.php?title=JezzaRules_Cleric_Guide" Firstly what do you think of it? and is it possible to post something like this on strategywiki? --Jezza 21:38, 21 June 2008 (CDT)

Sleepywood.net
Hey Isaac, do you reckon sleepywood.net is reliable? Yesterday, I actually believed Ariant is gonna be released on GMS coz of some guy who put up a stupid prank in which half the people in the forum believed him =.=. Sorry if it raised false hopes for everyone.--Jezza 20:22, 24 May 2008 (CDT)

GMS Test Server
Heyz, I have heard about the GMS Test Server just recently. Do you know how to create an account on Test Server? --Jezza 06:02, 13 March 2008 (CDT)

Horntail
Hey Isaac, I've been hearing rumours that Horntail doesn't exist in GMS yet. Is it true? If so, how are the mastery books that drop from the Horntail obtainable?--Jezza 05:14, 2 March 2008 (CST)

C. Ilbis
With the Crystal Ilbis, I hear they are unrechargable in GMS and can only be recharged in a town called Shubo or something. Is it true and do you know anything about this new town? --Jezza 16:29, 18 February 2008 (CST)

Lich?
Hey again Isaac, how long does it take for the lich in the forest of dead trees to spawn and how does it detect botters and hackers? Also there's this grave where a zombies lost tooth is supposingly offered to and this weird chest thingy appears with nothing inside it. What is it? --Jezza 05:47, 12 February 2008 (CST)

4th Job
Hey Isaac, when do you think GlobalMS is gunna release the 4th job advancement and monster rider? Hopefully I dont have 2 w8 for another year for it coz i really want monster rider. (dammit I really envy MSEA...)--Jezza 04:30, 19 November 2007 (CST) Hi again =P. Do you know when patch .49 is gonna be released. Coz there has been a lot of issues where people say its on the 15th and 18th of jan yet it never really came.--Jezza 03:16, 20 January 2008 (CST) Oh ok, I don't intend to spread it to the world anyway =P.--Jezza 17:56, 20 January 2008 (CST)

New Equips in GlobalMS
Hey Isaac, do you know how to get the Celestial Staff, Astral Blade, Nebula Dagger and all the other sorts of new equips released in GlobalMS? --Jezza 03:21, 5 November 2007 (CST)

Patch .46
Hi again Isaac, do you have any fair idea on what GlobalMS is releasing? --Jezza 03:50, 31 October 2007 (CDT)

Patch .45
Hey Isaac, do you know what GlobalMS has exactly released? Coz it seems like its only cash crap.--Jezza 17:05, 25 October 2007 (CDT)

I really hate 2 swear and yell but WHAT THE f@#$ IS THE POINT OF THAT PATCH!?? Nearly everyone I know who plays GMS are complaining and furious at Nexon for raising false hopes. Plus I reckon it's an outrage that Nexon delays us nearly 7 hours for the crappiest patch that releases nothing!. (Sorry for yelling and the inappropriate language).--Jezza 00:14, 26 October 2007 (CDT)

Badlands, Glitch in GlobalMS
I hear that there is a glitch to where a hidden map is found in the NLC subway. It is said that to enter it, you need dimension door or a return to town scroll on the doorway with the 'no exit' sign above it. What do you know about this map? --Jezza 06:08, 25 October 2007 (CDT)

Sleepywood Forums
Hey Isaac, you told me that Basilmarket is unreliable and bullshits all the time but do you reckon Sleepywood forums would be telling the truth most of the time? Coz I do believe I'm starting to eat crap from them =.=. Another thing, what is coming out in the Globals patch version .45? --Jezza 23:25, 24 October 2007 (CDT)

Hey Isaac, if you believe Sleepywood forum is more trustworthy then how come you just deleted some of my recent edits? By the way, I reverted all my edits once I saw one of my edits has been removed proving that I'm wrong.--Jezza 00:54, 25 October 2007 (CDT)

Sonic Adventure 2
Are Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle the same game (for different systems? If they are, they should have shared guides like Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. -- Prod (Talk) 20:07, 22 October 2007 (CDT)
 * The extent of it is that they share a toc. They still get separate front pages. I'm on |irc if you want to chat. -- Prod (Talk) 20:27, 22 October 2007 (CDT)

Hi
Hey Isaac, just out of curiosity wat lvl are your strongest characters in all maplestory versions you play? My ChinaMS character is a noob magician, only lvl 21 coz I hardly ever go on it (primarily because I can't read Chinese easily) and my GlobalMS character is a lvl 43 Fighter. --Jezza 05:38, 21 October 2007 (CDT)

I can has more uploads?
o_O;;; Those pictures are so tiny Isaac. Are you planning on enhancing them somehow within the display, or are you simply going to display them just as they are? Just curious… Procyon (Talk) 14:47, 2 November 2007 (CDT)
 * Is this a good size? Image:GS Moloch.gif. -- 03:53, 5 November 2007 (CST)

Sorry about the two KMS sections...
Sorry...i was forgotten about that to delete 1 when i copy it..but i wanted to ask you a question. When i did the Box for the new monster so it was bugy and all that so it didn't worked to me..Why? I hope if you will help me about it.

GoldenSun wikia
Yeah, (almost) all of Wikia is GFDL as well (including that wiki), so use all the info you want from it :). As for the template, do whatever you see fit. And, as for the link back, here's the basic code guide:
 *  goldensun  links to a page on the central Wikia
 *  wikia:c:goldensun  links to a wiki's Main Page
 *  wikia:c:goldensun:Mad Plant  links to an article on a wiki

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask :) -- 19:44, 5 November 2007 (CST)

El Nath PQ
What is El Nath pq? I have never ever heard of it before. (Its not mentioned in the Party Quest Section) Think you can upload information on it in the party quest sction? --Jezza 04:22, 15 December 2007 (CST)

ref tags
Should be fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out, and please tell me if you notice any more broken pages. :-) --DrBob (talk) 04:18, 24 December 2007 (CST)

Nihal Desert red link
Template:MapleStory/TOC/Quests contains a red link for Nihal Desert. Considering I haven't played MS in like 2-3 years, and after after checking google really quick to see that indeed people are interested in it (even cooler is that SW is link #4 on the search)... Should the link be there, and is it red because GMS doesn't have it yet? What versions do you play (such information would be useful on your userpage xD)? -- 02:14, 30 January 2008 (CST)

Contact info
Email me if he's got MSN or gTalk. -- Prod (Talk) 14:29, 22 February 2008 (CST)
 * He could also use IRC and then PM Prod so it's not public. -- 14:31, 22 February 2008 (CST)
 * Yea, I'm not on IRC much anymore :/ Just send me an email and I'll give you some details. -- Prod (Talk) 22:29, 22 February 2008 (CST)

Your Characters
Do you have any characters on Bellocan GMS? -- 20:58, 2 March 2008 (CST)
 * Levels/Classes? -- 21:52, 2 March 2008 (CST)

Maple Sub-TOCs
Can you link me to the monster toc template that needs editing? I'm at work right now and hunting it down might be a pain to find. I'm not trying to be lazy here, I just don't want to edit the wrong template. -- 14:36, 14 March 2008 (CDT)
 * I think I did it. -- 15:13, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

Version templates
Those seem to be getting long. What do you think of my changes? Should it be extended for the rest of the areas? -- Prod (Talk) 23:02, 7 April 2008 (CDT)
 * That's the idea. Each of the regions would have a row of "globally available" (or some better name) with a list of icons and their locations that are available. -- Prod (Talk) 23:19, 7 April 2008 (CDT)
 * If the separate templates are going to be put on different pages, then definitely. However, I don't see how it saves space. -- Prod (Talk) 01:52, 8 April 2008 (CDT)
 * If you believe it would be useful, go for it. I would suggest names of MapleStory/Versions/Masteria, and don't include a notes section on each template.  Just add a references section at the bottom of the page to collect them all. Also, move the page to one of the new names before splitting it up so that you can keep the edit history intact. -- Prod (Talk) 09:46, 8 April 2008 (CDT)

MS/Game HDD Space
Just so you know, they recommend having more space than the actual used space because 1) patches, 2) Windows requires a swapfile to exist and be used, and 3) other processes may use up space (screenshots etc.). However, telling people the actual space used is nic too.  -- 00:30, 10 April 2008 (CDT)

Maple assistance
Hey, sorry to bug you but I was wondering if you can take a look at the last section of MapleStory/Magician Guide/Builds starting at My personal build LV (132 arch mage). It's kind of out of place and I have no idea if any of the advice is useful or not. However it does look like the person was trying to be helpful.

It looked odd and overlooked so I'm simply bringing it to your attention since I have no clue what to do with it. --Zaiqukaj 03:16, 27 April 2008 (CDT)

Image upload
I'd say scale it down in paint or something and then upload it. That error is weird though. -- Prod (Talk) 01:28, 4 May 2008 (CDT)
 * What error? It works fine on my sandbox.  -- 01:55, 4 May 2008 (CDT)
 * I already uploaded a new version of the file, lol.--IsaacGS 01:56, 4 May 2008 (CDT)
 * Don't think there is one...The only thing that comes to mind is the username blacklist, but that only stops registration. -- Prod (Talk) 22:46, 6 May 2008 (CDT)

Version content
Does it really matter? -- Prod (Talk) 22:34, 10 May 2008 (CDT)
 * Perhaps the Town/Area column? -- Prod (Talk) 23:18, 10 May 2008 (CDT)
 * Template:MapleStory/Versions/Ossyria seems to have lost some flags. -- Prod (Talk) 00:10, 4 June 2008 (CDT)

TaiwanMS pirates
I thought TaiwanMS got pirates in Mid May? So you're saying, they didn't get them yet? Hell, not even JapanMS got them in 1.44. TKWizard 07:43, 28 May 2008 (CDT)

MrSmartGuy
Can you check his recent edits. Seems to be deleting tons of stuff and I'm too far out of the game to know if his changes are valid. -- Prod (Talk) 18:03, 31 May 2008 (CDT)

Table design
Hi, I saw you undid my changes of the table. I must agree, my solution to change it to the 3-letter abbreviations was not the best. But with the long names it really looks crappy on my resolution. With more and more versions released this problem will grow even further.

I have some more ideas on how to make it look better:
 * Remove the words "Yes", "No", "Partial", "Exclusive", only use colors
 * Yes = green
 * No = red
 * Partial = Yellow
 * Exclusive = blue
 * for additional information the ref-tag can still be used.


 * Set the remaining text (leftmost column and header rows) to small

This way we can keep the current layout, but make it much smaller. And without text we can define a fixed width and hight of the cells (what's not the case now because of different text lengths). This way it will look way cleaner.

What do you think of it? --91.13.88.88 07:29, 26 June 2008 (CDT)


 * I just saw that changing prettytable to the following from the Jobs-table does a pretty good result:
 * class="wikitable" style="text-align:center; font-size:0.9em; margin:.1em; width:100%"
 * Maybe we can use this in all the tables? --91.13.88.88 07:54, 26 June 2008 (CDT)
 * Text should stay so that bots can still understand the page. If shrinking the size of the text, it should be done through one of the parameters of prettytable. -- Prod (Talk) 11:01, 29 June 2008 (CDT)
 * OK, that's even better. I think the parameter style=font-size:0.8em should do the best. I'll change every table to it, then all tables have the same size (only a bit smaller text) but still the full text. --91.13.116.68 01:46, 30 June 2008 (CDT)
 * 0.9 em also works, I take 0.9 then. --91.13.116.68 01:47, 30 June 2008 (CDT)
 * OK, every template now uses . This looks very good on 1024x768. --91.13.116.68

I also have another idea about the tables. Currently it is so that the Yes/No boxes are separate for each version and colspan is only used when all versions have it. Should we change it so that colspan is also used if there's only a version with a Yes/No box next to each other? I tried around with that idea a bit, in my opinion it looks pretty good. Opinions? --91.13.116.68 02:32, 30 June 2008 (CDT)
 * Try it out on one of the smaller templates as a demo and if we agree on it we can implement it in the others. -- Prod (Talk) 02:36, 30 June 2008 (CDT)
