I think I know why the Tutorial is "locked" ...but I want to help make the Tutorial better and more useful.

Tutorial (edits)...



Why can't the BW tutorial be this way?

I know it'll take ages to list each item (because there are thousands of items) and its' information (normal to perfect +5, legendary perfect).

Also, I'd like to edit my wiki page, add some templates and maybe a journal.



The in-game profile section is limited (words), i'd rather add a link to my wiki page in my in-game profile section instead if i could edit my wiki page.

I could also save reports online and add them all to my wiki page to record my progress and mistakes.

I just think wiki profiles/pages give you an unlimited/unrestricted amount of freedom. You can have your own Trophy Hall without people deeming your "achievements" unworthy of sharing.

Also, clans could have wiki pages with a list of their expo/siege reports, 1-on-1 ambush reports with their rivals/rival clans, etc

yeah, i knew it was because of spam ...every wiki i use has spam (not like forum spam) ...but that's what system operators are for

don't know about you guys but i'd like to "visit" different clans (not their forums, because i'd have to register or probably won't even be given access lol), be able to chat with them on their talk pages, see how creative they are, read journals and be able to comment, etc

i just feel restricted on forums and i'll bet others feel the same way ...if a "debate" gets ugly or off-topic, the thread is closed ...that wouldn't happen on a wiki's talk page ...a user could delete the comments but you can look in history and continue the conversation on your own user talk page.

anyway, it's frustrating to click on reports and the links have been deleted ...there is a better way to save links and allow people who are interested 5 years later to see the first successful expo report on this server. some people like history ...*raises hand* i do Smile

i want to see the old siege reports between the 2007 clans ...i want to know who the historical clans were and why they were historical.

anyway, i'm rambling now, as i always do ...Devs if you read this, if you need a System Operator for your wiki to block spam bots, i'll do it. i know how to block ip proxy servers also.

You mean hundreds of thousands.

The way I see it, you want a way to talk to someone, to be able to insult him so that no one is able to remove what you said. I see no other way of wiki being better than forums.
