Trade Page + Other stuff
Someone suggest a 'Trade page' where wiki users could use the talk page to leave stem info and item trades. So far there is no real way for players to do this without already knowing eachother. I think its a good idea. However, its not really a 'wiki' kind of thing. Its a bit unprofessional in my opinion, however I honestly don't care. Its a nice way for players to meet up and it'd expand the terraria community involvment in a positive way. I want to know your opinion on it though.

Another thing i want to add is an 'up and comming' page or something similar. It'd basically be a page containing info on the next update and speculations. For people who don't follow twitter or the forums heavily it would be really useful. Again, not really a wiki thing and thus not terribly professional. But its player friendly, and that's what I really think this wiki is for. The players. The community. At least, that's what its about for me. Let me know your thoughts and weather or not I should pass this to Dratini. Game on! ~Zenofire (ps, sorry for being mostly inactive. Been stupid busy recently XP)

Hey hero i was just thinking there should be a link from the home page for the contest page, so more people are aware its happening. Gracey91 13:40, July 20, 2011 (UTC)

Accepted friend request Gracey91 15:41, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

Page rename "Harpey"-> "Harpy"
The "Harpey" page should now be titled "Harpy" becasue the name has changed in-game.

Is it okay
im wondering if this wiki suports what i have found as a way to kinda break the game i dont use it very often but it is very useful to know how to do. I have found a way to clone things in terraria, and would like to make sure thats okay to make a page out of. Anyway plaease respond soon. SINCERLY: Mrbonkers115

Spam protection filter
Hey, i was making an edit on the Clay Pot page today and when i tried to publish it, i got a page saying Spam protection filter, and that the links or page name had tripped it off. I went back a page and hit publish again and it worked. Only thing i did that was different to normal was i linked to a category page(Seeds) instead of a normal page. I was just wondering what would have caused this? like am i making to many edits or too close together? Gracey91 09:41, July 27, 2011 (UTC)

Terraria
Hello Hero I just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to get Terraria and the videos on youtube to help me with certain items thank you truly

Update video
Hey, just letting you know the Blade of Grass page video need to be updated. Thanks Gracey91 01:51, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

Page Layout Standard and Educating the Public
So you've probably heard of/ from Gracey by now, that user who is super passionate about the wiki. Well he inadvertantly sparked the idea of a "editing for beginners" page (or something similar). A link for it would be on the main page, maybe even a 'manditory read' for new (and many current) users. It would incude links to the Monster Page Standard (which I've only just heard of) as well as an Item page standard, etc. It would also have a tutorial for using the editing tools via a Video (which I can make if you want). What do you think? ~ Zenofire

To solve the Help part of this i noticed we could just make this page more obvious, then we only have to point out the page standard. Gracey91 08:33, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

This dude is damaging the wiki, adding crap, dude is a vandal. Huntlol consider a ban. Gracey91 06:47, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

Admin
Thanks heaps Hero, i will do my best. Gracey91 11:00, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

Watches
Hey, just wonder do you think i should just redirect the 3 different watch pages to the one you just added the video to? Btw i got a bot to delete over 1000 useless redirects created after the hacker attack so most of the redirect comments are gone. Gracey91 21:42, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

I have further consider this and i see no reason why you would disagree, so i'm gonna do it. you don't have to reply Gracey91 22:10, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

New page
Hey, someone has come up with a page called Terraria Adventures Animated Comic, just wondering your thoughts on the matter, seems some what like an advertising attempt, but does have something to do with terraria? Gracey91 03:06, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Hello
Hi Hero my name is undeadslave and i saw your hellivator and i am currently in the process of makeing one. I have a request for one of you guys to do something, i would like to see the ocean been drained so there is no water in it if it is possible

Banned
I have banned a dude named rosmar for spamming the edit history on pages over 100 edits on 1 page in mins(multiple pages). banned for 1 month and sent a warning. I only went with a month because he was helping, i think he got pissed when i undid one of his edits, it was redundant, i used rollback and all the spam is gone. Gracey91 ✉  02:30, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

Fan art
lol word spreads fast, a new page has been made Terraria fan art. Once again just want your thoughts on the matter. Gracey91 ✉  16:41, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

hi hero i just added the page terraria fan art and i hoped youd have a look thated be cool thx

Source view acting weird
Editing in source mode shows HTML code instead of wiki code. I believe it just started doing this last night. I'm not sure if this has something to do with you guys or Wikia but I thought I'd let you know. Thanks. Equazcion2 15:43, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

Idea for new armor
Hi Hero! Huge fan. But I had an idea for new armor and I wasn't quite sure who to pitch it at. So I figured maybe you might want to look at it. It's called the Thons Armor. It's crafted from thorns and cacti. Say maybe 40 cactus and 15 stingers for the chainmail which would give 6 defense on its own. Basically it gives the same armor stats as gold including it bonus for a total of 16. But its set bonus is that it gives the player a constant Thorns Potion buff. So you would have 16 defense and deal half the damage dealt to you back to the enemy. Not sure if you or anybody on the team would be interested. If this is the wrong place, sorry for posting it on your talk page. I also had an idea for a new ore/game mechanic (weird thing to mix) if you're interested. Thanks for your time.

A subscribed fan

Ah, this is Port5, hero doesnt spend all that much time reading messages on his talk page, so i'll help you. Its a cool idea, try posting it at Terrariaonline.com, thats where the dev's hang out, and they like to read and sometimes work with ideas people have for the game. Sign with four ~tildes please.

Bot
Hey, i been screwing round with bots the last few days and i think i've got a pretty good grip on it so i was wondering if it would be ok if i used a bot on the wiki? I mainly want to use it to get rid of all the redundant categories. If its ok could you flag this account as a bot, that way it doesn't spam the recent history. thanks Gracey91 ✉  13:33, August 6, 2011 (UTC)

I suspect its cos the account is new, after 4 days it becomes autoconfirmed. I'll see if i can find a way to speed up the process. I'll let you know how i go. Gracey91 ✉  17:28, August 6, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, turns out only wikia staff can flag bots, so can you offer your 2cents on this forum, i had to start a disscusion where i need positive feed back to be allowed to use the bot. thanks Gracey91 ✉  05:46, August 7, 2011 (UTC)

which is better?
Me and my friend where having a battle,i was using muramasa and he was using the blade of grass.We started whacking at each other and we died at the same time.So which one do you think is better?Blade of Grass,Or The Muramasa.

Hey on the page about Mana it needs to be changed to 400 maximum go ahead and double check. I believe because of 1.0.6 with gear you can have 400 and also restore rates thanks.

Just felt like saying thanks to you for making all these videos on terraria. I would never be as far as i am in the game without you :) the videos really help me out. Your live streams are also great ;) thanks. — Scottyman (talk) 01:50, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

Request
Can I change the picture on the front page for the admins? I've actually been using a pretty silly armor set yet I've grown fond of it. If I can't, its not a big deal so don't worry about it. ~ Zenofire

Reccomendations?
Hey uh, just curious, is there a reccomendations page on this site? If not, I might make one. I feel it could be an exciting topic for users to talk about.

Still waiting for changes
I'm still waiting to see our designs removed completely from this wiki. I see there has been some progress, but with just a short search there are still many pages using our infobox designs. Just to list a few. I appreciate your attention to this. Thanks! -- Wynthyst talk 14:39, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

Hey
Hey just lettin you know i have made a Sandbox page, also what do you want to do with the templates the dude above is talking bout? I read the convo you had with him, it made me lol many times. Gracey91  ✉  14:51, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Ok i have made a potions template, let me know if you want me to change it. Gracey91  ✉  14:01, August 13, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Hero! Im Lemmy Koopa and i'm a HUGE fan of yours! I would just love it if we could play 2-Player on Terraria some time! It would make me so happy!

Master Sword
Hey i seen your page, i get what your doing but it will get the same amount of views if you make it in the forum (i fixed the preload so it will appear) then create a blog with a redirect. If you need i can edit it occasionally so it continues to appear in the recent history. This will also stop the complaining comments on the page. Gracey91  ✉  08:59, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

How do you record your Terraria videos?
Hiya, I love your Terraria videos, expecially the Let's Play series. I have been trying to make a series, although with screen recorders, I can record my voice, but it has 2 downsides. I can't record my friend's voice, and sometimes it even lags the voice completely up! Could you give me some tips, or possibly the link to the recorder that you used for your Let's Play videos?

comments
Hey just letting you know i changed all the admins comments to appear blue like the wikia staff so people don't get rude or smart. If you want i can remove it or change the color for u. Gracey91   ✉  17:04, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Clarification
Ah, thanks for clearing that up. No I can sleep well during the day (I work at night XD). Btw, I think its high time we added Gracy to the front page. With your approval I'll take care of it. ~ Zenofire

Request Cleanup
I see that there are almost 4,000 pictures posted onto the network. Could i suggest the use of Flickr? (was gonna suggest image hosting site, but wikia dosnt support them). If the pictures are usefull to a article they should come from the network, but userpics and profile pages should be external. Agree?

Help with your giveaway?
Hey there, my name is Tae and I am the gaming category manager here at Wikia. I just saw your video explaining your contest and think it's a really cool idea. I've been working with other wikis to generate cool contests where Wikia provides the prizing and allows the wiki to run the contest however they see fit. I've been doing this as a way of giving back to our awesome communities. I know you have already set your giveaway but I wanted to offer you my help if you ever wanted to do something like that again. We can sponsor some of the prizing and help you promote it through our networks. Just putting it out there if you and the other admins want to do something. We usually don't ask for anything in return other than a small nod in the contest write up; otherwise, we allow the wiki community to take the spotlight. Please let me know if you're ever interested, and good luck with your contest! tae (talk ) 21:12, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Content Team Assistance
Hi :)! I'm Mark, from Wikia's Content Team. As the wiki is doing so well, I thought I'd drop by and offer my help with the mainpage and background. Currently the main page is just one huge chunk of text which doesn't appeal to visitors, and nor does it help them to navigate around the wiki. I'd like to create a 2 column layout with a video, featured images, about section, content section, slider and more. I'd also like to change the background. Currently the background looks great on small resolutions, but if you have high-res monitors, it's just 2 trees with an ugly, black background, whilst it looks great on small resolutions (<5% of the visitors to the wiki have small resolutions). So with your permission I'd like to create a new mainpage/skin, present them to you, and if you like them I'll put them online :-). Drop me a mesasge on my talk page (or reply here) if you'd like my help! Cheers, Mark  ( talk ) 12:42, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Hero. Thanks for your feedback :). If you prefer the current background, that's fine too of course. If you could provide me with the original image I think I can enlarge the image so it looks a bit better. As for the mainpage, I'll make sure those section will stay there :). I'll come up with a draft today. Cheers, Mark  ( talk ) 12:12, August 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi again :). I've uploaded a new version here. Do you like this one more? Alternatively I could also apply fading to the current background, but that'll still look pretty bad for anywhere between 80% and 95% of the wiki [1], but your wish is my command :-) Mark  ( talk ) 12:28, August 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Great! As you might know, Wikia is experiencing caching issues today which should be resolved within in the next 24 hours. So until that's fixed, I can't put the new background online. So I'll just get started on the new mainpage today, and contact you as soon as the caching issues are resolved. Cheers, Mark  ( talk ) 12:35, August 24, 2011 (UTC)

New background
Hey, Hero i spoke to Mark they guy above. And he came up with i really good background for the wiki, i think you should have a look. Here. I think we should seriously consider using this, its unique and i think its quite nice. Gracey91  ✉  07:01, August 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hey thats fine, i just think something different would be better. it needs to take up more space so when you scroll down its not black. ill leave it to you. Gracey91  ✉  12:32, August 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hi! The new mainpage's first version is all done. You can view it here. I've added an imagemap to the administrator image so you can click on the image of an admin and it'll take you there. Furthermore I've added several new sections, and left some unneeeded/outdated text from the mainpage out. I hope you like it! If you'd like to see anything changed, just ask me :). Mark  ( talk ) 21:57, August 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Great you like it! I'll put on the background tonight. The caching issues are still persisting, but I'll ask an engineer to manually clear the cache for the background. As soon as the background is online I'll also put the new mainpage online. Cheers, Mark  ( talk ) 11:45, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Question
Hello,

Just a quick question. I heard about your contest while searching the wiki. But i heard its only in the US. I live in Canada so is it possible to still win a t-shirt or a copy of a game for a friend? Also im trying my hardest to win a t-shirt is there a chance i could win. Ive been trying to help out as much as possible.

Terraria T-shirt
So I love your design for the Terraria T-shirt, and I was wondering. Will you be selling them in the future? I would totally buy one, especially considering that I haven't really been on the wiki long enough to even consider winning the contest. :)

Hope to hear back with a favorable answer

Your Friend,

My NPCs won't arrive..
Hey, I posted a forum question about it already, but since you said to ask you anything I'll take this opportunity, My NPCs will not spawn. In one world, I got the merchant and demolitionist to arrive, but I now have a musket and 320 HP but neither my nurse or arms dealer will arrive! I have patched the game all the way to 1.0.6 and I have open rooms. I even tried making a new world, moving all my stuff to the new world, but now NONE of the NPC's (minus the guide) have arrived. This is frustrating, do you have any idea what I can do, at all?

Please and Thank You,

Cabrenjamin

Hey to help save us (the admins) time i will be adding a script to make it a single click to delete something but you will need to be careful, 1 press and it will delete whatever page your on. I added fast housekeeping so its easier to remove the mass of useless photos. I also added a summary bar, so you don't have to type a summary each time. I made one just for you hero.

I would just like to say, I removed a video on the Phaseblade page due to the fact that it had been removed by the user. I don't think it was one of yours though. I would just like to suggest that you make a video for the Phaseblade to replace the video previously on the page.
