00:00.26[dRaCo]would be great to have, though.
00:00.42[dRaCo]someone should poke slouken to add an api call for that.
00:00.58IrielWhy? It's deliberately not there
00:01.12[dRaCo]why?
00:01.15IrielThe whole point of GetItemInfo working the way it does is to NOT provide a mechanism to validate server links
00:01.34IrielBecause blizzard dont want people trying to scan all of the possible item ID's for things they haven't published yet
00:01.44[dRaCo]they do that anyway
00:02.01IrielTrue, but it's a real pain in the ass for them
00:02.47leethalis there any ways to get your tradeskill-skills without having to open the tradeskill windows?
00:03.13Irielleethal: No, but you can make the API calls and block teh window from opening
00:03.26leethalneat
00:03.36leethalit's very, very annoying that enchanting is using a different system, though
00:03.42leethalthe craft skills thingie
00:03.46[dRaCo]iriel: should be easily blockable by he server, shouldn't it?
00:04.19Iriel[dRaCo]: I imagine if they cared enough they could lock your account out after N bad links in X minutes
00:05.14[dRaCo]they could just stop you from linking anything that isnt for the public eye yet.
00:05.36[dRaCo]instead of preventing you from linking stuff the server hasn't "seen" yet
00:05.53IrielIn theory those items aren't available on the server, it's only if a GM or somesuch happens to create one that it ends up known to the server
00:06.05IrielSince 'seen' is "has loaded since last restart"
00:06.11Irielnot "has seen ever in its life"
00:06.13[dRaCo]yeah
00:06.53Adysa blacklist/whitelist system would be easier to handle in the end, though
00:07.26Arrowmasterlike martin thunder
00:07.36[dRaCo]and pretty easy to maintain
00:07.39clad|awayeasier for you
00:07.41leethala whitelist would rock. and then just do nothing if the item isn't around on the server, or the item doesn't exist at all

00:08.01Arrowmastersome gm has it and it only shows up on your server if the gms been there since restart
00:08.13[dRaCo]big db, all IDs, flag them.
00:08.19clad|awayi love when you guys pretend you actually _know_ how the servers work, and what makes sense and what doesn't :P
00:08.34AdysAuto whitelist, like the armory's one
00:08.36leethalyeah I really think I know how they work
00:08.44clad|awayand what happens when the first Arthas kill stops him from dropping any items because someone forgot to unflag it?
00:08.46leethalI dream about how they work at night
00:08.59clad|awayI didn't say "leethal"
00:09.03clad|awayintentionally
00:09.09clad|awaysince you were only expressing how neat a whitelist would be
00:09.20[dRaCo]clad: let a man have his dreams.
00:09.24clad|awaynope
00:09.28[dRaCo]mean!
00:09.29clad|away:P
00:09.31clad|awayindeed
00:10.06[dRaCo]but why? :/
00:10.45clad|awayprinciple
00:11.59Adysclad|away: its not any hard to generate a list of available items from the current armory's available items and to unflag a couple of dozens
00:12.55clad|awayyou assume the databases are anywhere near each other, or that that level of propagation is somehow "easy" in their current structure
00:13.13clad|awayi just dislike that on principle
00:13.23leethalmm the armory isn't exactly using the database the game server is using through a real-time connection
00:13.32clad|awaymaking a suggestion is cool, but pretending you know what is or isn't easy for their coders and server techs
00:14.26clad|awaynot trying to be a dick, just expressing my opinions, and that's something that happens to bother me.  When someone says I can do something "easily" when they have no idea of the universe I operate in.
00:14.31clad|awayTell me what you want, and I'll decide how easy it is :P
00:15.00Adysim not pretending anything :P Blizzard's structures are weird enough as it is
00:15.26clad|awayyou said it would be easy, that's all i was reacting to :P
00:15.46Adysdo you think it'd be hard to generate a whitelist?
00:15.57*** join/#wowi-lounge GomiNoSensei (i=tonyd@d205-250-164-37.bchsia.telus.net)
00:15.58clad|awayI think it has its own unique set of problems
00:16.00clad|awayyes
00:16.21Adysits a hour work for a single person, that doesnt work there
00:16.25clad|awayand not knowing anything about how their multi-site data centers work, I'm not willing to assume it will be "easy" for them
00:16.37clad|awaygenerating the list isn't the only part of things
00:16.46AdysYes but thats what Im talking about :P
00:16.53clad|awaywhats wrong with the current system?
00:16.54AdysIts not like its gonna get implemented is it
00:17.08Adyscurrent system makes it easy to link weird items
00:17.26clad|awayI think that's fun, not bad :P
00:17.45Adyslol so do i, but its still a flaw of the system
00:18.00Arrowmastereasy to link weird items?
00:18.01clad|awaythere'll be a flaw in almost any system
00:18.06clad|awayunless Iriel writes it imo
00:18.06Arrowmasterhow is that a flaw?
00:18.20Adysmartin thunder is right now linkable on 5 european battlegroups and 2 US at least, didnt have the chance to check them all, thats just an example
00:18.33Arrowmasterblame the GMs for that one
00:18.37IrielI think it's a "tradeoff" more than a flaw
00:18.41clad|awayyep
00:18.52leethalmartin thunder?
00:19.00ArrowmasterGM item
00:19.02AdysDeprecated Rogue's Vest, Deprecated Tauren Trapper's Pants, Essence of the Firelord DEPRECATED are all three linkable on every server, all the time
00:19.05Irielsimplicity and manageability over complexity and chance for mistakes
00:19.18leethalI don't get GM items heh
00:19.29[dRaCo]http://www.wowhead.com/?item=192
00:19.33leethaldoes GM run around in towns bragging about their items?
00:19.36clad|awayAdys: So, unequip them from the GMs
00:19.47leethaldo they need imba weapons to pwn people, instead of blocking their account?
00:20.18Adysleethal: GM Weapon is just the name given to it, its no use for them
00:20.18Arrowmasterand if a GM was to show up in the middle of town wearing any of that you could possible end up getting everybody nearby disconnected if those items werent linkable
00:20.35leethaland afaik it's pretty common not to let silly stuff out in the wild, such as zones and items that doesn't exist in the public version of the game yet
00:20.42clad|awayi suspect they do it, because they can and they have thankless jobs, are relatively underpaid, etc.
00:21.05Adys"relatively" underpaid :P
00:21.16Arrowmastertheres a full set of GM cloths

01:41.16Cairenn|afkKaydeethree: hopefully you'll at least be able to come hang out with us for the supper
01:41.26Cairenn|afkhow many people from wiki are going to be there?
01:42.37Kaydeethree3. kirkburn, tusva and me
01:42.54Cairenn|afkso why don't all 3 of you come to supper with us?
01:43.47Kaydeethreewe'll see. we've got a dinner meeting penciled in at 6 on saturday, but it's tagged (optional), dunno how optional it actually is, though
01:44.14Cairenn|afkwith some other group, or ?
01:44.37Kaydeethreeprobably with our other wikia contact. dunno if anyone else is supposed to be there
01:44.45Cairenn|afkif it's just the three of you, do it over the course of ours, too - not like the groups don't overlap enough :p
01:45.00Cairenn|afkso drag them along too :p
01:45.04Kaydeethree"Saturday 6PM- Meet in Clarion Hotel Lobby for a Wikia team dinner (Optional)"
01:45.05Kaydeethreetrue enough
01:45.08Cairenn|afk(options)
01:45.16KaydeethreeI'll poke then when I can get a hold of em
01:46.22Cairenn|afknot trying to force the issue or anything, just presenting options :)
01:46.38Kaydeethreeoptions are good
01:47.16Thunder_Childbesides, would be a really cool dinner group
01:48.14Thunder_Childnow lets get the blizz dev team to join as well
01:48.55Cairenn|afkwe're just trying to firm up numbers to a certain degree, because from the size of the group we're looking at, it wouldn't be fair to just walk into a restaurant and expect them to be able to seat us all without any forewarning
01:49.38Cairenn|afkso we're going to make reservations ... somewhere ... that hasn't been decided yet, but it'll be close, so folks can eat then get to the concert
01:50.57Thunder_Childbetter make it a place that has options..incase someone is a vegitarian etc.
01:51.50clad|awayI only eat people
01:52.05Cairenn|afkwell, most restaurants have options :p
01:52.15Thunder_Childcanabal options?
01:52.32Cairenn|afkat the very minimum, I've yet to go into one that didn't at least have soup and salad available
01:52.43Cairenn|afk(restaurant, not fast food place)
01:55.22Thunder_Childdamn, there goes getting some cat onna' stick

15:21.33dnmcgoyThis is a repost from wow ace, so I apologize if this is annoying, but I'm currently trying to secureactionbuttons working and I'm seeing behavior I dont' know how to track down. Here's the pasted code (its pretty short) http://wowi.pastey.net/71548
15:21.58dnmcgoyBasically two things are occuring I don't know how to fix.  1) the spell is attached and if I click on it, it is cast, but its picture isn't shown (it just shows an empty action button) and secondly, when I press the button, it becomes highlighted, but doesn't unhighlight like a normal action button does
15:22.44zenzelezzI don't think it automatically sets the icon when you set the spell; but I could be wrong
15:22.46*** join/#wowi-lounge Shirik (n=nospam@207-172-237-19.c3-0.eas-ubr5.atw-eas.pa.cable.rcn.com)
15:23.14zenzelezzand the second is something about whether it's an instant action or not I think, but again I may be wrong. Sounds like "Next melee" anyway
15:23.45dnmcgoy"next melee" is that a setattribute?
15:23.56JoshBorkemorning Cairenn
15:24.00Cairennhi hi :)
15:24.01JoshBorkednmcgoy: no, it's a function of the spell
15:24.11JoshBorkednmcgoy: like Heroic Strike is on next melee
15:24.11Shirikhow do you do one of those advanced /who s?
15:24.18Shiriklike with name and level
15:25.01dnmcgoyit doesn't matter what spell its on though.. the highlighting remains
15:25.16dnmcgoyuntil I click it again

15:25.49leethalit does a pretty good job parsing it for ya =)
15:26.14dnmcgoyfor instance, I put "Seal of the Crusader" into the action button in question, click the button, highlight changes
15:26.24dnmcgoySeal of Crusader also goes off
15:27.04dnmcgoyput judgement in and it of course says that I'm not attacking anything, highlight changes though
15:29.08|Jelly|http://www.curse.com/ <-- what the hell is that?
15:29.13|Jelly|<PROTECTED>
15:29.45JoshBorkelooks like a website to me
15:30.08|Jelly|Wow.
15:30.12|Jelly|No really. I'm amazed.
15:30.32JoshBorkeperhaps you're referring to something specific?
15:31.03|Jelly|Yeah. How it's pretty freaking ugly as opposed to last time I went there.
15:31.11|Jelly|...which wasn't exactly great in the first place.
15:31.19Industrialugly?
15:31.23IndustrialI like it
15:31.24JoshBorkei kinda like the new layout
15:31.28IndustrialI like it better
15:31.41|Jelly|Wow. subjective opinion much?
15:32.39IndustrialTHe looks are great, but I'm a minimalist myself. I like to see as little information that doesnt apply to what I'm doing directly at that time
15:32.54ShirikI think it's ok
15:32.54Industrial(in other words its packed full of bars and dialogs and windows and stuff)
15:33.10Shirikbut not great, and imho worse than it was
15:33.16Shirikbut w/e, I didn't like the site to begin with
15:33.21|Jelly|They didn't really change that...all the BS is still on the right side of the page and the nav is on the top as opposed to the left.

15:43.41mikmawell i said some days ago that only usable site now is WoWI
15:44.21Cairennyou guys know we'll be changing our look at some point too, right?
15:44.38Cairennlayout will be: http://www.lotrointerface.com/index.php
15:44.58Cairenn(just graphics differences between that and WoWI)
15:45.30Cairenn(aka, same basic layout as now, just slightly updated)
15:46.42zenzelezzbleh, why so many visible borders?
15:47.18Cairennactually less graphic-intensive than what we've got now
15:47.25mikmaCairenn: that's not bad, compared to where curse has went
15:47.35zenzelezzgraphic-intensive how?
15:48.08Cairennthe current site (full edition, not lite mode) has a lot of graphics
15:48.32JoshBorkethere are graphics all around the borders
15:48.33zenzelezzI don't generally care if a site has 50 or 0 pictures as long as the end look is nice
15:48.43zenzelezzI prefer websites to look clean and flat
15:48.48JoshBorkeyea, but graphics increase bandwidth load
15:48.55JoshBorkei like the potential new look
15:49.02Cairennthanks
15:49.16JoshBorkei do like the slight graphic between the top tabs in the current one though
15:49.17JoshBorkei'll miss that
15:49.45JoshBorkebut it'll be better to have everything on one line i think
15:49.51Cairennwe were trying to come up with a compromise between the full out edition and the light mode - for folks that the full edition lags them to hell and gone
15:50.26zenzelezzmy favorite layouts are something like http://auno.org/ao/db.php?id=245799

16:13.27|Jelly|It plays (IMO) a lot like EQ2, if you ever played that.
16:13.32IndustrialNo

16:16.00[dRaCo]totally.
16:16.01Cairennand if you see one, you are supposed to report it, the GMs will change it
16:16.02Industrialzenzelezz: about a month ago

16:16.27IndustrialOh I still am
16:16.29zenzelezzO_o
16:16.35zenzelezzbanned for what reason?
16:17.37[dRaCo]Cairenn: I do that, but that's WoW...
16:18.12Cairennsame on LotRO, they're even more strict about upholding their naming policy than WoW
16:18.41Cairennbut honestly, meh, different strokes for different folks - some like one game, some like another
16:18.47TemAnyone else trying to stomach the WSVG for the wow portion?
16:19.25IndustrialAnyway, Cairenn, are the servers separated into EU/US ? I really wanna play with people I know from the community. THats a big minus with wow.
16:19.25zenzelezzfrom what I see on my server, WoW can't claim to be strict about naming policy by a long shot
16:19.37CairennI don't recall
16:19.44Industrialzenzelezz: it depends on PVP/normal/RP too
16:19.47IndustrialCairenn: ok
16:20.07ShirikThey're pretty strict on RP
16:20.17Temzenzelezz, to my knowledge, they don't police it at all on anything but RP servers
16:20.33Shirikwell they never "police" it
16:20.35Temyou have to report someone for them to notice on PVP and PVE realms
16:20.42|Jelly|I was suspended on a RP server. 8P
16:20.42Shirikiirc they don't do that on RP either
16:21.08TemIt's possible people on RP realms are just more anal about it and report a lot more often
16:21.21Shirikhehe
16:21.39zenzelezzShirik: I've always been curious, how is PvE (instances/raids) on RP realms?

17:33.37Corrodiasactually, it was two screenshots and i was assuming all the AP bonuses were stacking; if bloodlust doesn't increase it, i might have miscalculated, because the numbers made it look like it did
17:35.05Corrodiasdo one of you have a character on the PTR? i'd like to know if the horizontal resolution issue in windowed mode has been fixed. that's the only issue i'm really interested in.
17:37.24ShirikHey |Jelly|: If I tend to be the first to die
17:37.29Shirikdoes that mean I'm doing something wrong or someone else?
17:37.51zenzelezzyes
17:37.56Shirik..
17:38.04zenzelezzit depends why you're dying
17:38.19Shirikbecause they want me dead?
17:42.21Corrodiasin an arena? the first to die is just a strategical choice, not necessarily the fault of the person dying
17:42.33Shirikno in an instance
17:42.34Corrodiaswell, tactical choice
17:43.03Corrodiasokay, in that case, it's probably you, but you have to be familiar with everyone else's job to know if they're messing up in a less than obvious way
17:44.19ShirikI'm not paying enough attention to everyone else, I'm just trying to keep them alive
17:47.56zenzelezzbasically if the mobs are not on the tank, they should be on the DPS
17:48.02zenzelezzotherwise both your tank and DPS suck
17:48.14zenzelezzideally they should all be on the tank (or CCed)
17:50.29Shirikjust somehow always ends up if anything goes wrong it's on me
17:50.30Legorolwhat class do you play?
17:50.30Shirikpriest
17:50.30zenzelezzhealers generate threat on all targets, so that tends to happen if things go wrong
17:50.30zenzelezzbut the mobs should still go for others if they're doing their job
17:50.30Legorolit depends on what exactly went wrong,
17:50.30Legorolmost of the time what goes wrong is untanked or unCCd mob
17:50.30Legorolthose will almost always go for the healer
17:50.30zenzelezzyup
17:50.30Legorolit's pretty simple explanation really, and of course once the healer is down, all hell breaks loose
17:50.43*** join/#wowi-lounge leethal (n=leethal@kri1-1x-dhcp494.studby.uio.no)
17:51.03Legorolthe problem is that if any one of the non-healers messes up (bad tank, bad CC), the consequence is almost always healer death
17:51.48zenzelezzsome DPS have a tendency to break CCed mobs (Multi-shot, Sweeping Strikes, Blade Flurry, I'm looking at you) and get healers killed if the CCer and tank aren't paying enough attention
17:51.50Legorolin a 5-man that may mean 4 possible ways for things to go wrong, all of which kill you ;-)
17:52.01Shirikthat sucks
17:52.10zenzelezzit's the life of a healer
17:52.31Legorolhealing is such a powerful game mechanic, that i think it's appropriate for it to be the person in the most precarious position
17:52.45Shirik~dict precarious
17:53.05Legorollol
17:53.06zenzelezzneeds moar synonyms
17:53.25Legorolthat doesn't mean there aren't things the healer can do about it
17:53.34Legorolfor example, fade before you even get aggro (if you are a priest)
17:53.42Legorolrun towards the tank (or stand still) if you get aggro, and not away
17:53.44Legorolthat sort of things
17:53.54Legorolmany healers are bad at that and panic when they get aggro
17:54.01zenzelezzthat's not just healers
17:54.10Legorolyah but it's most dangerous if a healer does that
17:54.11zenzelezzI've seens like 1/10 people run the right way with aggro
17:54.16zenzelezzand most of those are tanks on alts
17:54.17Legorolnot to mention the healers that don't heal themselves
17:54.22Legorolvery heroic, but very stupid :D
17:54.41Legorolzenzelezz: too true
17:54.53Legorolunfortunately, it's a natural instinct to try and move away from something that's hurting you
17:55.11Legorolalso people will move, run, jump etc. even though it doesn't reduce damage taken in the slightest if the mob is already in melee range
17:55.26Legorolnevertheless, it's a very basic instinct that is very hard to overcome
17:55.35Legorolit just goes to show how immersive the game is, imo
17:55.42zenzelezzand if they turn too far around to run they get hit in the back and dazed
17:55.46ShirikI don't panic when I get aggro
17:55.49Shirikgotten used to it by now ><
17:56.02zenzelezzdidn't you use to play a Feign Death?
17:56.09Shirikyes
17:59.11Legoroli'd give an arm if hunters used FD pre-emptively *sigh*
17:59.47zenzelezzit's no problem, it's not like it can be resisted!
17:59.48ShirikI do >.>
17:59.55zenzelezzat least that's how they act
18:00.13ShirikI have a personal RDX module I coded but never released
18:00.19Shirikit checks all of my hunters' FD cooldowns
18:00.25Shirikand if it's not on cooldown, I hurt them
18:00.34Legoroli'm not in favour of such micro-management
18:00.41Legoroli'd prefer my players to be smart and act on their own
18:00.42Shiriksometimes they need it
18:00.48Legoroli'm not playing an RTS, so i don't want to control 5 units
18:00.59ShirikI would love for some people to be smart. Unfortunately, some people just can't get things through their skull
18:01.01Legorolif they need it, they have scope to learn ;-)
18:01.15Legoroleveryone can, it's jsut a simple matter of voltage
18:01.31Legorolthat was a paraphrase, and if anyone guesses the film that's from, they get a cookie

20:12.44Kasoi guess its just that obfuscating doesnt hurt, and it might help keep at least some unwanted traffic away, so why not?

20:13.52Shirikwhat if everybody's web server started running on different ports
20:15.11KasoYou want public to be able to access your website easily so tahts why you use default port, sometimes people use non-standard ports for non-public websites in the same manner

20:23.18zenzelezzfifth night on Morogrim or something, and they still insist on the strategy of *one* paladin tanking murlocs, despite it being obvious by now it's entirely luck based
20:23.55zenzelezznone of the videos I saw did him anywhere close to how we've tried
20:25.25AnduinLotharwe tried him a couple times, how it it sposed to be done?
20:26.13zenzelezzwe haven't taken him yet so I can't really say, but most videos I saw tanked him between the two pillars and didn't really tank murlocs at all
20:26.18zenzelezzjust frost trap/AoE

20:29.42zenzelezzat least with the tank tactic

22:22.25Shirikhm, so I never thought I'd need this in Lua
22:22.37Shirikbut I just implemented semaphores for RDX >.>
22:22.47zenzelezzwhy?
22:23.48ShirikThe rewrite has a radical change to the way it handles events. But some modules need information on these events at points after they occur. So, to ensure that the data isn't freed, each module can acquire a lock on the event
22:24.06ShirikThe data is guaranteed not to be freed until after all locks are released
22:24.47ShirikThis way I can reuse tables safely

22:32.29Shirikeh, I guess it's more of a... reverse semaphore?
22:32.52KasoIve never come accross it in a programming sense before
22:33.31ShirikWell for most, the only use of semaphores is a mutex, since that's about all anyone needs
22:33.42KasoOh shit! ERROR ERROR! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Semaphore_Error.svg
22:35.08Shirikholy crap 11MB

22:36.07Kasoyou can tell that something bad's happened
22:36.09Shirikkaso what is that >.>
22:36.24Kasothats the semaphore sign for "error"
22:36.25Shirikoh that's that ship flag thing ...
22:36.25Shiriknot that >.>
22:36.39ShirikYou know what a mutex is right?
22:36.54KasoFlags are so much cooler than programming man!
22:37.06Shiriklol
22:37.15Shirikhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semaphore_%28programming%29
22:37.20KasoNope, i havent come accross those yet either
22:37.28Kasostill first year of my comp sci degree
22:37.55ShirikOkay, basically a semaphore keeps track of something that can be used by multiple threads (or in this case, modules)
22:38.31ShirikEach time a thread (or module) requests a "lock" on that object, the semaphore is decremented by one. If it's already at zero, the lock is denied.
22:38.54ShirikWhen someone releases the lock, it's incremented, allowing more concurrent accesses.
22:39.16ShirikA mutex is a special case where only one thread may access the object at the same time. (Thus it's intiialized to 1)
22:39.51Kasothat seems fairly common sense
22:39.53ShirikMy implementation, though, counts up, because I need to do something when it reaches zero, not when it's NOT zero.
22:40.00ShirikIt's a very simple system :)
22:40.11ShirikBut it's vital for safe concurrent operations
22:40.51zenzelezzsemaphore, mutex, critical section => MINE! ALL MINE! memory
22:41.51ShirikRight, my terminology was bad which I realized after I said it, but it's essentially the same theory in reverse. I don't want to limit access, I just want to track it until it's no longer needed
22:43.50zenzelezzreference count then
22:44.17zenzelezzthat's about the only thing I ever understood about MS's COM thing
22:44.28Shirikheh
22:44.37ShirikI never really got into COM, though I still think I should
22:45.17WraangerShirik ...a question .... is there any progress with Kara boss mod for RDX.CiD ? +)
22:45.55Shirikyeah actually, without thinking I know
22:46.00Shirikmy version is different than that on the SVN
22:46.09Shirikwhat are you looking for in particular
22:46.56Wraangeryou said like 2-3 days ago that Kara modult is still a bit ...betaish ))) for instance, Illhoof module by your words was not working ')
22:47.04Shirikah yeah
22:47.19Shirikno I really haven't done much work on it for the very reason that any current bossmods will be obsolete in the new version of RDX
22:47.32ShirikI can give you the current version which is mostly working and offer you the places to change
22:47.47zenzelezzwhat about a Maraudon module? That place can be raided too :-o

22:56.22ShirikThere are a lot of reasons for the rework, but the nicest thing about it will be its focus on performance. We strived for performance earlier but there were some key flaws at RDX's very root
