Pan – i sent this message to Widow on the new wiki – she is the Curse Wiki admin. Neg and I also saved all the old wiki pages:

Hello,

I am dnlmachine and also on Kongregate server. Myself and some others (Irate13) want to help with the Wiki.
I have some web page skills, but not a pro.

Are you transitioning the old wiki info into here…from the old wiki html/pages?

Thats what we thought we could do, if you have any advice please message us.
We dont want to step on toes and/or do work thats unneccesary.

We also wanted to know about the Maps page. Our friend from Kongregate spent a lot of time making the Map page after a year and a half of dead link. I understand there is something about scripts though. I will have him communicate ASAP – he is skilled at HTML and coding. He was made an admin on the old Wiki and fixed a LOT of stuff.

Thanks!!
dnlmachine

Druid92: I am not republican
Druid92: I don’t care
Soveperser: I’ve heard somewhere that Denmark is supposed to have the happiest people or something.
Druid92: Anywhere but Crazyland
Druid92: I have always had the feeling that I was not supposed to be born here.
Soveperser: dnl > We have some plans to change how clans work, but since we are downsizing at the moment, it will most likely be a while before you will be seeing it :(
dnlmachine: sove – here is what i and some other leaders notice about safehouses:
Druid92: Downsizing, onoes!
dnlmachine: anybody can start one, but they cannot develop it without builder role.
dnlmachine: leader cannot dismantle without removing player from clan
dnlmachine: so we end up with abandoned houses
dnlmachine: sorry to hear bout downsize
Soveperser: You really got a point there. Im gonna write it down and take a look at it, when i have the time
dnlmachine: we wish builder role was needed to start house
dnlmachine: IF player is in clan
dnlmachine: i know thats probly not a 10 minute fix, but i wanted to tell you cuz you are a man of action

dnlmachine: sove – anything you can tell us about what changes are planned for clans?
Soveperser: I just asked the other guys about it. We might change this. It shouldn’t be a hard fix
dnlmachine: o man – if that was updated the leaders would kiss you
Soveperser: We talked about progressing towards smaller, but more worthwhile clans.
dnlmachine: but does the main server not have huge clans?
Soveperser: Yeah the problem is the humongous clans at the moment.
dnlmachine: part of what happens is players that join and play for 2 days. but im not worried about our clans MIA
dnlmachine: i never kick anybody unless they do really stupid things
dnlmachine: repeatedly
dnlmachine: ive never played on main site so i might be talking out of my league tho
To Druid92: if you have any ideas this is good time to say/ask
Soveperser: We have some clans with more several thousand members. The amount of data every single member will have to load, when doing clan related stuff is too much. It crashes peoples browsers. We really need to tend to that issue
Druid92: that is huge
Soveperser: Yeah
Druid92: Tell them to stop running XP dammit
dnlmachine: hah!
Soveperser: It might even crash some peoples browser when they open up the map and it has to load the placements of 200+ safehouses
dnlmachine: yikes
Soveperser: And playing without the map is pretty much impossible

dnlmachine: i have to message my clan every day to remind them not to build random houses
Druid92: Why so many SH, they are hard to build up?
Soveperser: Yeah, I can see that the permission issue is part of the problem
dnlmachine: lots of them are just sleepover spots for players with a box of nails
Druid92: Maybe it should take more than a box of nails to start a SH
Soveperser: Yeah and thats not the way safehouses should be used
dnlmachine: and in the north – its difficult to develop houses because a lot of the supplies are in the south, so the houses get left alone
dnlmachine: house should need builder role to start up
Druid92: A box of nails, a shovel and a broom
dnlmachine: and leader/dismantler should be able to dismantle without the current member in clan restriction
dnlmachine: then leaders could clean up many unneeded houses
dnlmachine: brb
Soveperser: You are right. I will run this pass the other guys
Soveperser: past*
