Hmm, I'm not sure how to take this news of a new wiki. I BARELY know how to edit this one without deleting everything (which I have done before), and now I have to learn how to do it all over, on a more difficult system by the sounds of it? I like to keep these kinds of thing simple and sweet. JPTeeto was kind enough to create a wiki for us, and I like to use it. Sadly, we haven't heard from his greatness in some time, though I still believe he will return. I'm also put off by the comments of Screature and bukk about this Stag fellow. I'm not one to suffer a community of power-crazy fools (not meaning Screature and bukk, of course). I will have to see where this new wiki goes before I make plans of moving. Until then I'm not going to worry much about it and I will just focus on my requests.

/end rant

ok, atomic. Me and screech aren't liking some of the people there or the new, more complex editor. Since we're mods at the new one, we'll still be kinda active there. But we are more focusing on keeping this wiki going.
Also, lol at how you made JPteeto sound like a god/deity. Seeing as I made that comparison a while ago.

The ultimate goal of us will be to make sure both are managed and that there is peaceful negotiations between everyone. This should not be seen as or become a coup. If that were to occur, then everything that has been done up to this point would be useless and we'll end up with 2 rival groups. Not what we need...

That leads me to another question, CTR. Is this to be a move from this wiki to the new one in favor of security and whatnot, or are both wikis going to be mainained? If it is the latter, it seems like a waste to me. And I hope this move isn't being made for any kind of power reason, because that would just infuriate me to the highest degree.
And yes, I still see our forerunners (JP, DG, TF7, DB, etc etc) as the best. I like the new crowd, of course, but I know I wouldn't have anything to post on this wiki if it wasn't for them. I'm always hoping they return ('cept DarkBahamut of course, he's still kickin' around =P).

Well, I'm still going to stay here until the wiki is made entirely obsolete. I've almost reached 80 ships, and once I do, I plan on asking Gemstonehelix to do another video facing my newer creations. :D

the main reason for the new wiki is because anyone with power here (ability to ban, just in case) aren't here. I agree 100% with atomic

The plan appears to be a gradual move to the other Compendium. As of now, the other one will be a backup in case something happens here. Since we do not have the power to restore things, there is nothing we can do except twiddle our thumbs until it is restored. Eventually, probably around Fall, then the Redux will become the official one and this one will be the backup. The adjustment will be both sides since no one knows each other and the place isn't all Fraxy stuff and we're kinda merging in.

I guess to answer your questions, this site will be maintained but on a gradual lowering basis until everything is set in place. To answer your concern with a power struggle/coup, I and others will make ABSOLUTELY sure that doesn't happen. Everyone's question is where is JPteeto? He's obviously needed for this in order for there to be a fully mutual process...

To be honest there is no power struggle/coup. I know NightKev and Arbe (and myself and Bukkarooo), are not the sort to abuse authority. It was that little tit in the IRC that thought it his position to block access to the entire forum 'because he could'. The forum is meant to be more secure. If thats the case, make a new one?

There will eventually be a complete move. I'm forwarding myself and bukky as workhorses for anyone unsure of how to edit the new pages. I'll give advice on how to set up and edit everything. Of course, before I can do that, you have to register which takes 2 mins at most.

Is anyone in agreement that we need a final date for the complete transition? I mean one set date, where after that, this wiki will be completely dropped and unmaintained, with all new Fraxyers pointed to the new wiki? I'm thinking a final date of 1st Jan 2009. Gives everyone 5 months to shift to the new wiki, which is more than enough.

January 1 sounds good. As screech said, me and him are ready and willing to help anyone who's confused with the new editor. Though one person at the new wiki (Kironide) was willing to make tutorial pages and stuff to help the people get started.

Looks like I missed a load of unpleasant-ish conversation while my connection was dead. I think I have a solution. We use the old Compendium as a data storage and use the New Compendium as the showcase. The data in the old Compendium should be safe because its delete protected.

stag will be taken care of, don't worry about him. If he blocks access to the forums again, he loses ftp privileges completely. | We have an uploader at the new wiki and it's be designed to be very user-friendly and easy to use/browse/etc. There's still a couple of features to add (such as browsing files by user) but overall it's complete. It's separated into categories already (bosses/trys/etc). The pbwiki will eventually just be sort of a backup/archive/pit of nostalgia.

LITTLE ANNOUNCEMENT. Ok, I'm sure there are many people who are unsure and holding back from taking that first step into the new wiki. I am willing to register/create new accounts for anyone who asks. I will create the account with the username you use here, and will set up your userpage/bosspage for you. Then all you'll have to do is log in using your username (and the password I give you, which can be changed by yourself at any time), and upload your bosses in your own time. I'll even upload one or two of your bosses to get you started, and so you can see how it's done and how it looks. If anyone at all would like me to do that for them, please feel free to comment here and I'll get right on it! If you'd prefer, please email me using the address on the frontpage above (I'll need your email address to register the account anyway, and to send you your password)

p.s. I know Bukkarooo will also gladly give up some of his time for the purpose described above.

that I would ^.^

Yeah I haven't really had time to do it myself so I'd be happy if someone did it for me. But I'd owe them big time. ^^

If you can make an account on there, I'll gladly put together your page. you could change your password afterwards, of course

Hehe the idea is that we make their account for them, literally from scratch, from pressing Log-in, to registration step 1 and onwards ;-). I'll leave this one to you Bukky

On the create-account page....
Username: Omoresu...
Password: (you choose, and email it to him)...
Email: h***gs@hotmail.com (if you know this pbwiki you'll know how to find out his email ;-) )...
Real Name: Omoresu?...
Then create his boss page and upload a few to start him off.

Ok. I can do that. I'll just PM you, omoresu, on youtube to see what your email is and what password you want, which you can change after I'm done wih your pages, of course) ^.^

Yeah just keep my name Omoresu.
Thanks again Bukkaroo/Screature.

Glad I could help ^.^

I don't know what it is Bukky, but every time you edit a page, it goes loopy. Just had to revert and re-edit. I get a ! on every new line, things change font size, symbols get messed up (e.g. @ becomes "at"). What do you use to edit the page?

just opera with the html thing.... that's messed up. I only edit the one line : /

Hey Nightkev, is the IRC down or am I just bad at telling time? I keep on trying to get on but am unable to. =/

you have to use the one, #thebard. Fraxynet broke or something

Aww, I wanted comment #666. :P Well, anyway, the newest update to Fraxy lets you turn health bars to individial parts or the boss as a whole, which is pretty cool I think. :D

Screech, I get the same problem sometimes. A70M1C, IRC moved to aoi.irc.djbouche.net, #thebard. ;P

The old editor is on the new wiki haha. That rocks!

I made the 2nd announcement red and underlined because I believe the previous method of editing the pages was one of the main reasons people were avoiding it. Now they have an editor they're familiar with, more people should move over! Or, at least, now they have no real reason not to

Now that my computer is working again, and I seem to have fixed the server computer as well, I'll go and install an OS on it and get a new FraxyNet server up and running. It'll probably be a couple of days before it works properly.

Ok, awesome ^.^

Also, is there a comment system like this one on the new wiki? Because this was one of my favorite featuresbecause everone could talk, regardless of timezones. It's also a good place to make announcements.

I guess, the front page "discussion page" ?

bukky ... did you not notice that every page has a "page:talk" tab? >_>

uh.... no, I didn't :P

Well, it looks like we got another update, and some interesting new parts! For starters, a new part called Barrier (and Barrier 2) creates a circular ring through which bullets cannot pass through. You can specify size and arc length using the extra parameters. Also, a new gravity piece allows for infinite gravity fields and some extra move settings were added to the Aim Player panel. Oh, and the Head Core now has movement.

Peardian, most everyone has moved to the new wiki, so you don't need to bother with this one much. :P

Hello everyone. As you can probably guess, this moving process is not going as smoothly as we expected. Some of you are probably confused or you really don't care. In these transitions we most likely lost a number of members. However, we are doing the best we can under such circumstances. As such, I put up a tally so I can see how many active members still exist. I would really appreciate it if you can fill it out. I'm not asking you to join anything, I just want a number. Thanks!
