Spyro the Dragon Wiki

Moar epic fail...

The troll is confirmed to be using proxies, according to whatismyipaddress.com. The proxies are from Wuhan, China; mike154.server4you.de (Germany); Wichita, Kansas; Darmstadt, Germany; and 62-2-87-18.static.cablecom.ch (Bulle, Switzerland). I'm pretty sure using a Chinese proxy is illegal in the USA or in China, and the rest are from Non-English speaking countries. If all else fails, we can ban countries from the Wiki, but I doubt you'd like to do that.

I am just going to force registration for now until I finish implanting my half *bleep*ed security thing. Or maybe just force registration period, that will 100% cure our spam problems.

Proxies are not illegal.

It depends on the country. The US and China are a bit tensioned, and China is going far out to restrict web access. I'm pretty sure its illegal in China, if not the USA, to be providing web services to outsiders.

I could have just imagined it though.

The usa its perfectly legal to be anonymous. I don't live in china, so I wouldn't know about their laws, but lots of proxy servers are in china.

Ah, well, this is off topic anyways.

How are we going to go about compiling the information about LoS3 for the Wiki? Add it as we learn it, or wait 'till the game comes out?

ratchet · Feb 13, 2008 5:57 AM

I think we should add as we learn

bmah · Feb 13, 2008 6:22 AM

Just add a disclaimer to the wiki that info on LoS3 is unofficial until release date or until something more definitive is known.

Iceferno · Feb 14, 2008 3:16 PM

^ Good idea. And if you had to so that with multiple game-info links, you could just have some icon to click on and the default disclaimer message would come up... smile

A'Ight. I'll whip up a template for it this weekend.

ratchet · Feb 15, 2008 2:59 AM

Yeah, How do you make those little images transparent?

RaidonMakoto · Feb 15, 2008 9:23 PM

Gotta do it in Photoshop by deleting the white pixels and background layer. I'll make your two images transparent this weekend.

ratchet · Feb 16, 2008 6:46 AM

alright, and yeah i had to edit emm in paint because they went weird when they turned gif... So yeah, there not that good

bmah · Feb 16, 2008 9:04 AM

Some picture formats will automatically turn colorless backgrounds into an opaque white background. Try using .PNG for transparent pixel support.

ratchet · Feb 16, 2008 9:15 AM

sorry, PNG somehow dont work

Yeah, we're having issues with .png, and SpyroRocks has no idea why.

New front page! Also, we're working on a new logo.

I'm so exhausted from uploading pictures for places but I'm gonna do some more.

RaidonMakoto · Feb 16, 2008 6:52 PM

Just curious, where you getting the pictures from? They're all of incredibly bad quality, too.

I'm getting them off my camera so that the best quality I can get it in.

bmah · Feb 16, 2008 7:39 PM

(assuming you're taking pics of Spyro games)
If you want pictures from a TV screen, it's better if you buy an adapter that connects to the TV so you can take screenshots directly from your TV. You don't see digital camera photos of games on game magazines or on game websites.

abbey1053 · Feb 16, 2008 7:51 PM

Yeah I have an Adapter I just need to go get it now.

Spyrorocks · Feb 17, 2008 6:38 AM

RM, there seems to be an excessive amount of promoting of your blog on the wiki... would you mind only keeping a link on the staff page, and ridding the others of it?

Iceferno · Feb 17, 2008 11:19 AM

May I suggest she puts it in her sig? smile

I planned to. There's only two, however, and Neal said it was okay to put it in the affiliate box, and the other is in the newspost. Once we get some news, it'll be gone tongue Also, did you answer those questions Neal sent you?

Ice, I'm a he tongue

Spyrorocks · Feb 17, 2008 6:32 PM

Neal never sent me any questions. Why? What were they? If you have a copy you can forward them to me.
