The Bridge

@MarkTrapp sorry for the confusing splurge of a comment response, it's the best I could do

user2334

@DavidB I responded, but unless I misunderstood you, I don't think it's an onerous problem for community editing

I don't really do much tag editting, so I wouldn't have a valuable opinion there

Q: How to equip Serana?

I've been trying to give her some new armour and the like and she doesn't seem to want to wear it over her default armour. Is there a trick to getting her to equip items? Armour specifically? If I can't upgrade her gear I'll go back to using Mjoll.

@DavidB Well, I mean, to put it into perspective, unless we just go crazy with MoP and it becomes a Diablo 3 or Skyrim, outside of the MoP contest we got like one or two WoW questions a week.

user2334

The type of changes you mentioned in your answer don't happen very often, so combined with our WoW question load, maybe a couple of dozen questions would have to be retagged at some point in their future? Most of the time, a year or two later. WoW—at least the parts that would affect expansion tagging—isn't that volatile

Like I said, your idea is clear, and it could work.

it would also defeat the expansion question for the next one (in two years)

Is there a policy/consensus about questions that players can no longer encounter? I've asked a question which will expire in terms of usefulness, and am curious about its fate. If there isn't one, I'll start a Meta on it (sometime this week)

user2334

@DavidB Ah, didn't check on the main site yet; didn't see your comment. For the record, your feedback is appreciated, at least to me, and I think it's important people give feedback especially when a change affects the games they play (so keep doing it!). I'm just not seeing something specific to WoW that we don't already address without much of a problem with expansion tagging on other games

user2334

@DavidB Yeah, generally you vote to close/flag as too localized if it's clear the question is no longer relevant

7:22 PM

kind of a shame to watch the rep fall off, but understandable.

user2334

Closing doesn't reset rep, only deletion. And you keep your rep even in deletions if the question was around for 60 days and your post got a 3 score or higher

ah, ok... good to know

my question probably won't last that long, but a good policy in general

user2334

Yeah: it's a recent change after a big kerfuffle regarding deleting content that was once tolerated but no longer. You shouldn't be penalized for producing good content in good faith just because the situation changes months, sometimes years, later

I have internally reflected that kerfuffle since asking it. Thanks for the info.

Q: How to summon Durnehviir?

So I've got the shout in my shouts list and I've unlocked all three parts of it, but I can't seem to be able to use it all, just the first part. Am I missing something? I still have a quest for 'Learn the first word of Durnehviir's shout' but it's showing as me having already got it. What gives?

Do Champions that make/obtain pets in game gain sight of stealthed champions or Wards vis a vis their pets if they have an Oracle's Elixir? Champions include: Maokai (seedlings) Annie (Tibbers) Malzahar (Voidling) Yorick (Ghouls) Mordekaiser (Ghost) Zyra (Plants, Seedlings)

@MarkTrapp Hmm didn't know that - should I start doing so for the various Diablo questions that are now irrelevant while they work on their unofficial public beta :D

Blem

@Alok If possible modify to match current content before voting to close/flag

Alok

@Blem Lots of questions like those on skill exploits, gold farming etc. aren't salvageable; there isn't an alternative (unless for e.g. you consider a completely different build to be a valid change from 4k hp FA build)

Q: What causes some industries to go away?

9:16 PM

0

Sometimes I've had industries go away - notably oil rigs but sometimes forests or coal mines. I thought it had something to do with proximity to a city but I have some urban forests (ha!) that are still holding up pretty well in 2240. I also thought it might have to do with the transportation per...

@MarkTrapp That's pretty cool, although I couldn't figure out a clean way to get to my own profile.

user2334

I just typed in my BattleTag in the search box, which is what you do on the WoW site

This is pretty cool:

cool video

@RedRiderX I do not think it works like that ...

@James It could... watch the video.

@RedRiderX I did and I am still pretty sure it doesnt work that way :)

@James Could be, I can't read the description to tell. :)

@RedRiderX Well I can see the little piston that knocks the end bulbs away, and you can see them bounce and such when they hit.. So it is definitely a neat setup, but.. yeah you dont pass electricity by tapping blubs together ;)

10:07 PM

@James I know that. :P

@RedRiderX Handy description then eh? :P

Q: Are the attack speeds of weapons offset by their damage output?

0

I like two-handed swords because of their higher attack speed, but I am thinking about switching to a war hammer to max out my overall damage output even further. If the war hammer's higher damage output is handicapped by its slower attack speed, though, it may be just as benficial to stick with...

So I saw The Watch today. Oh man, it was great.

@GnomeSlice The Ben Stiller alien comedy?

@RedRiderX Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill, Richard Ayoade, yes.

@GnomeSlice I see.

I'm pretty surprised it was only rated 14A though.

Fluttershy

@GnomeSlice Rated R here in the states.

10:42 PM

@Fluttershy Good, it probably should be. There was a ton of swearing, some nudity (breasts) and an orgy scene.

Also a lot of penis jokes. But I'm making it sound worse than it is.

It was a lot of fun, I enjoyed it. Richard Ayoade is hilarious.

@GnomeSlice The Canadian movie rating system seems to rate things slightly lower than America.
