01:40.52kd3awesome
01:41.16pcji wonder why they're so upset about the eye strain bit
01:46.06kd3probably because they can't immediately explain it away?
01:46.35pcjwhy not just say "we're looking into it" like they always do

16:13.09Sky2042_afkSo, pcj, deleting common.js is a bad idea, mkkkkkk?
16:15.08g0urrano
16:17.53pcj_2i talked to hubert yesterday
16:18.55Sky2042_afkpcj: That's informative.
16:19.23pcj_2he basically doesn't care if he makes a cent on wowwiki
16:19.50Sky2042_afkHe basically said that last time.
16:19.54pcj_2yeap
16:20.08pcj_2he said they're discontinuing interstitials which is a good thing
16:20.20Sky2042_afkOh, that removes basically my only objection to it, too.
16:20.30Sky2042_afkInterstitials make me a sadpanda.
16:21.17pcj_2he hates ads almost as much as we do
16:21.35Sky2042_afkHow does he monetize Curse then? o.o
16:21.36pcj_2the people who invested in wikia offered to buy them out but wanted to remove him and he told them to f off
16:21.54Sky2042_afkNecessary evil, then?
16:21.59pcj_2yeah
16:22.09Xtekpcj_2, :)
16:22.23Sky2042_afkXtek: You would smile.
16:22.34XtekCurse monteizes on a lot of different things.
16:22.45XtekPremium subscriptions make up 1/3 of our income.
16:22.54pcj_2oh i forgot to ask him about that
16:23.36XtekWe have lots of ad deals with big clients.
16:23.47XtekAlso, now we've crossed the 10,000,000 uniques/month mark which means much bigger ad clients.
16:24.07pcj_2oh and he said they won't do auto-play video ads
16:24.13pcj_2and ofc no RMT
16:24.17Xtekyep
16:25.50XtekIt's basically the same idea that stores will sometimes lose money on one thing to help make more in another area.
16:26.16Sky2042_afkXtek: You'd think Wikia would have figured that out by now...
16:26.22Sky2042_afkwaits for WikiaPlus.
16:26.23XtekFuck Wikia.
16:26.37pcj_2eww
16:26.40pcj_2imagines the babies
16:26.44Sky2042_afkI'm actually surprised Wikia hasn't developed a subscription method yet.'
16:26.46XtekI worked hard on FFXIclopedia and donated hundreds to help it stay up.
16:26.50XtekThen they just took it and kept the money.
16:26.59Sky2042_afkOh, shit, you worked on ffxi?
16:27.02Sky2042_afk:O
16:27.08XtekI was one of the devs behind the Windower.
16:27.29Sky2042_afkYou would be bitter about it, then.
16:27.31Sky2042_afkHeh.
16:27.35XtekYes.
16:27.45XtekI think I donated $700 all told.
16:28.05pcj_2ouch
16:28.19XtekSo, I have a strong distaste for Wikia.
16:28.35pcj_2that's unusual
16:28.51Sky2042_afkpcj: Don't be so dry.
16:28.57g0urrastill wonders how much wikia would ask for wowwiki.com
16:29.07pcj_2over 9000
16:29.13OseONE MILLION DOLLARS
16:29.15Sky2042_afkHey, Kirkburn|away, how much would Wikia ask for wowwiki.com?
16:29.15OseMUAHAHAHAH
16:29.21pcj_2hey owl
16:29.26Sky2042_afkOse: A conveniently round number.
16:29.36pcj_2how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop
16:30.03XtekJust think, it could be hosted here... http://media.curse.com/CommunityServer.Components.SiteFiles/127284/News/CurseAtlantaDataCenter.png
16:30.05Xtekooooh the power
16:30.14g0urraold
16:30.24XtekNot for everyone else g0urra.
16:30.30Sky2042_afkXtek: That's so hot.
16:30.46pcj_2probably is, i imagine they have to have some nice cooling
16:30.51Xtek1.241THz, 1.27TB of RAM, 10GBits of WAN traffic
16:31.00pcj_2but can it run crysis?
16:31.04Sky2042_afkHahaha
16:31.06Xtekhaha
16:31.15Sky2042_afkActually, I have a friend with a machine that could run Crysis at nearly max settings.
16:31.18XtekOh, and 17TB of Network storage.
16:31.19Sky2042_afkSo hot.
16:32.40Fiskerbut can you stop me Sky2042_afk ?
16:32.41XtekWas quite fun to set up.
16:36.25Sky2042_afkYou know Wikia is failing to educate their users on image use when they don't know what "properly licensed" means...
16:39.19pcj_2wikia failing to educate? that's weird
16:39.30pcj_2it's not like they're dumbing everything down so noobs can edit without having to think
16:39.32pcj_2oh wait
16:39.45Sky2042_afkshhh.
16:40.36Sky2042_afkYou know, it just occurred to me that twitter is basically on the Wikia skin now... I don't have issues viewing tweets at all...
16:40.56Sky2042_afkx.x
16:41.26pcj_2because they're limited to 140 characters
16:41.47Sky2042_afkBetween paragraphs.

18:26.13pcj_2oh

18:32.26pcj_2what
18:32.44Sky2042www.voteeasy.org
18:34.17Sky2042It's like, hear, know who you're voting for. Which, it happens that I already knew.
18:35.34pcj_2meh
18:35.44pcj_2if the candidate hasn't declared it it says it doesn't match
18:35.53pcj_2and ranks accordingly
18:36.02Sky2042Indeed.
18:36.15Sky2042But that means you probably wouldn't want to vote for him anyway.
18:36.24pcj_2Not really
18:36.37pcj_2I know the candidate's position better than the website :P
18:36.50Sky2042So, pull a wiki on them and tell them so. :P

21:27.01foxlit"People have been reporting headaches attributed to the new skin. If you are experiencing these headaches, switch to the old WoWWiki skin or just take a break."
21:27.05foxlitI am no longer amused.
21:27.22pcj_2yeah its pretty bad
21:27.26Ressythey've been deleting posts from users stating they've been getting headaches
21:27.27RessyAND
21:27.39Ressy<TheLegion> They even silenced an Optician when he noted it and he was one of the Specialists of the NHS
21:27.39Ressy[17:22:57] <TheLegion> in britain*
21:28.15foxlitI'm not sure what to make of that.
21:28.15Fiskerhaha foxlit ?
21:28.36pcj_2foxlit: they're deleting posts pointing out the new skin causes headaches, one of these was a licensed physician
21:28.52foxlitThe various unordered lists on that page were pretty laughable to begin with; this bold red "ZOMG HEADACHES" is even further along that line.
21:29.15pcj_2*shrug* it's true
21:29.50Ressyeye strain. *shrug*
21:29.57foxlitAlso, Catalyst dropped off the custom games list.
21:30.04Fiskerbtw i don't know why you even suggested a wowwiki.xx domain
21:30.11foxlitHow the heck did that happen?
21:30.22pcj_2custom games list?
21:30.23Fiskersince you would obviously just get raped by whatever cybersquatting rules the TLD provider has in place
21:30.35pcj_2fisker: wowwiki isn't trademarked
21:31.21Fiskerdoesn't nessecarily matter
21:31.28foxlitpcj: I would've expected "Catalyst?"
21:31.36Fiskerbtw
21:31.43Fiskeri kinda lold
21:31.52Fiskerwowwiki is like the facebook of wikis
21:32.13Fiskerit's right there in the right side, encouraging you to put up nudes of yourself
21:32.27pcj_2foxlit: if i figure out what custom games list you're talking about i can probably figure out what catalyst is
