[GrassDragon]

Wow, very impressive. Did you contribute to all this?

[SarahK]

nah, I just found it looking around and copy pasted the links lol :)

That's a complete list of all the stuff about StarCraft on Wikipedia that I could find

[Snot]

Man, had Wik been around when Lumosa was here... our encyclo would be done and over with...

Seeing as I had the history and battle fluff... lumosa had most of the big stuff... damn near killed himself... I haven't seen him in ages... god rest his soul.

Anyway... restarting this whole thing would be a good idea so I say go for it... and good job Sarah K... just make sure you didn't plagerize them or nothing... that would suck for you and WB.

[B.A.Baracus]

Nice links, I spent like an hour reading them!:D

[U-238]

Hah I spent allmost all morning reading them. Bad for me since I was supposed to be doing school. Now I'll have to play "catch up".

[Sub-Focus]

That was very interesting I knew almost nothing about the origins of the Zerg and of the Xel'Naga

[GrassDragon]

Hah I spent allmost all morning reading them. Bad for me since I was supposed to be doing school. Now I'll have to play "catch up".
You homeschooled U-238?

[SarahK]

A lot of it's from the game manual: If you've ever flicked through the StarCraft manual you'll find it's more like a mini-novel - LOTS of background story :D


also see http://s9.invisionfree.com/Starcraftopedia/ - in development

[U-238]

You homeschooled U-238?

Yea why?

[Snot]

I think I'm in love with SarahK... good god ... all her links are just amazing. Good god when she gets started, she goes! And that's fucking awsome... you slackers should learn something from her. She may very well be the one to bring the pedia back to life.;) :D

[gordomay]

Snot, stop sucking up and just ask her out already!!!!!:) :o :D

[Snot]

:o You are so going to pay for that one.:mad:

[SarahK]

lol
www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=16229

just found SCLegacy's encyclopedia... It rocks...

[Basan]

lol
www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=16229

just found SCLegacy's encyclopedia... It rocks...

For a long shot there I just thought that you've found out about my thread on it and Lumosa's one too. :P Guess that you still haven't found out about the WB's inborn search feature (http://www.warboards.org/search.php?)... it works, ya know? ;)

[SarahK]

stuff like this should be stickied/pinned >_<

[GrassDragon]

Yea why?
Just wondering, it's not every day you find another homeschooler. I'm homeschooled too.

[gordomay]

Snot, j/k bro!

:o You are so going to pay for that one.:mad:

[SarahK]

I bet he's not really a marine >_<

[U-238]

Just wondering, it's not every day you find another homeschooler. I'm homeschooled too.

Lol I guess not.

stuff like this should be stickied/pinned >_<

It could be but after awhile everyone knows it and even if this thread died people would still probably just go to Wiki anyway.

[Snot]

I bet he's not really a marine >_<

:o Are you freaking serious? SarahK, I have been in the Marines for the last four years, I'm now enjoying retirement at the moment. But I'll be going back again for another four years by this fall.

But seriously... wow, you are link happy, and there is nothing wrong with it. You're one of the few people who back up what they're saying with proof. For that, I think I'm in love... but only a little. :smirk:

And gordomay... it's cool bro. Peace.

Anyway. Spedia will rise again, and that's something I look forward to.

[SarahK]

Cool :D

(and lol)

[Snot]

Yes, it is cool, but I don't see what's so funny...

[gordomay]

So Snot are you just a jarhead or have you gone to school for any thing particular. My brother was a marine and he was just a jarhead. He wanted to go and be a sniper but his weight got in the way.:concern: He was honorably discharged after 6 years of service.

[Snot]

I was an infantrymen, but I'm using my GI bill to get some schooling right now, in the history department, I kind of want to be a teacher. Be afraid... be very afraid.:o

[Basan]

Military background teachers... let me at'em! :D I never gave a teacher that much run for his money than to my ol' Biology one that had that kind o f experience in his resumee.

Even a few years passed he still remembered me, when I dared a younger friend of mine to mention 'bout me when having classes with that teacher as well. Not all good memories the man spoke, but fond... :smirk:

[Ktan]

:o You are so going to pay for that one.:mad:
Amazing waht female presence can do to us men...
Yeah, liking the link mission SarahK went on, deserves a minor medal.
Gotta love Wiki.

[SarahK]

I've been working on the ORGWiki too :)

[Basan]

SarahK, I just beg that you lay-off (or take a vacation) on some of the Avys posted. :concern: Imho, they start to clog the page... and aren't necessarily linked to Org history since only had saw'em there. >_<

[CrabTasterMan]

O.o didnt notice this thing was in this part of the forums...

What's wiki do?

[SarahK]

Crabtaster, see http://wiki.kupatrix.org/Category:StarCraft

it might actually be better for SCOpedia to integrate with that in fact

[gordomay]

I could not find an animated tank driver! thanks SaraK!:D

Have you the stuff from the old site? I don't know who has it... starcraftopedia's looking a bit empty as it is:
http://s9.invisionfree.com/Starcraftopedia/index.php?act=idx

[Snot]

I'll look for it. My old computer crashed, and it held all the information. I saved the majority of it on floppies. So I'll give it a gander.

[SarahK]

cool! :D it'd be such a waste to lose all that hard work

[CrabTasterMan]

I still remember that site's address!

LumosaBrood.11.forumer.com

[SarahK]

looks like all the actual content has been deleted, all I can see is just random chatter and spam o_O

[DaMiNaToR]

How much of that is officialized and how much is just bullshit?

[SarahK]

It looks fairly accurate now, links with sources and stuff...

I noticed there's a topic about the wikipedia article on blizzforums.com too, looked like someone fixed it :)

[CrabTasterMan]

Sarah K: you cant see the work we did there. Its behind the scenes *wink*. We have a section called "the Desk" Which only officially annointed art/text staff may have access to. And Only LumosaBrood can grant taht access... and he is no longer online anywhere.

[Snot]

Yeah... I never truely understood why he did that... was it for privacy? What's the point in only us seeing the works when people come to the site? I don't get Lumosa some times...

[CrabTasterMan]

Its because of DLK!! DarkLunaticKing once plagiarised a picture of a high templar and a mutalisk drawn by Felix of Blizzard. (HT first then the muta) We all believed the hightemplar was his. He even forged his sig "DarkLunaticKing" in cursive in black pixels, like in MS paint.

We had a fight saying the HT and the Muta styles and skills are totally different. The HT was an above avg HT, but Felix Muta was WAAAY beyond the normal exceptional. A lot of us who visited SCG official site artwork section in the old days were quite familiar with that ultra-EXP muta...

We accused him of plagiarising. Both pictures, as it turned out. Someone found the same HT pic on the net without the signature via google. When someone pointed out he didn't even bother to erase the original, pencil signature 'f', standing for Felix of Blizzard... He claimed HE was Felix of blizzard. The 'f' signature in the ultra-EXP muta sketch was "just a file code, going from A-Z, dumbass." He said the real signature was the same cursive "darklunaticking" we saw on the shitty HT pic. It was copy pasted onto the muta pic.

Then we showed him a picture of a L337, colored handdrawn HT, with another 'f' on it. We now know that, the person who drew a muta with 'f' on it could not have drawn such a L337 HT and drawn another shitty one. He lost.

Somehow we he is still allowed to move about freely on sc.org and frequently vote and leave comments in the sc.org fanart section. Now he goes by the screenname "DLK."

With all that fiasco, Lumosa was being careful... But he wasnt online frequently enough to annoint potential members into staff... There werent any new staff after a few weeks... and the project died as one by one staff members *glares at SNOT* and others (sorry, but you are the only one I remember to leave the project with nothing DONE :P ) left...

I think me and DrawingBlanks were the last ones standing. :D

:mad2: What?!?!?! You mean DLK on starcraft.org is the jackass who caused this whole mess?!? He is still posting, gaaahhh! Im gonna get him, even if I have to reach through the damn computer screen to do it!!:cuss:

[SarahK]

Yeah, what a scumbag!

[CrabTasterMan]

Dunno what made him do such crazy stuff.

BTW, the latest art plagiarism on sc.org was either a "screenshot of the SC:G cinematic trailer" :rolleyes: or the "scanned picture of Samwise's black and white ultralisk you can find in your SC manual."

[Ktan]

yeah, that stuff sickens me

[SarahK]

it's looking good so far, check the Project subrforum :)

[GrassDragon]

Your forum seems to exhibit a problem I see on many new forums I like to call "Too Many Frickin Forums" syndrome. Why do you need the bottom six forums? Or "discussion/debate"? Aren't you a site about starcraftopedia? It detracts from the forum's image to have so many empty forums.

</criticism type="constructive">

[CrabTasterMan]

Right... I guess you have a point. I hid all the empty forums so only ppl can see it in the forum jump menu. Now I'll disable it.

What bottom 6 forums?

[JoEsMhOe]

Great work man. If there was a rep system, I would be repping you from here to London.

[CrabTasterMan]

Huh? The forum is open to all people. Reply when you want. Its so far unmoderated.
