P, let's get cracking!
OT: kof4ever or kofonline I can't remember which one it was, but it wasn't Yasakani's one I'm 100% certain (I would remember, coz he's my friend).

Back ontopic, we didn't finish discussing this. It already looks like we're working on the threads, so what happened to linking to the wiki entries?

Are we happy to contribute to the wiki without credit?

I have a feeling that the credit aspect is quite important to any community. To be honest, I'm not happy about contributing unless you can clearly see our names credited somewhere. Otherwise, people just assume DC has a great wiki and ON has done nothing, which is obviously not the case.

Oh and the notation thing - the graphics for commands look great, until there's loads of red dots over the page. Does that mean we should go back to normal notation using letters? Putting these on the wiki will take a huge effort too.

I think aside from the movelist, we should avoid using the smilies (red dots). Although I think the Wiki's commands don't "trigger" the smilies like it does on forums so we should be good.

OT: And going back to the topic about the image stealing, I'm afraid your memory has failed you my friend. It was 100% not Yasakani because I vividly remember having a conversation in person with him about "the other" kof site doing that BS, hence it must be kofonline (since his website is i.am.kof, initially I couldn't remember between which site was which, but knew it wasn't him, but now I remember it had a tinyurl or whatever you call them).

My answer to this was to reiterate that kof4ever was the NAME of Yasakani's site. I never said he was responsible for image stealing - that was all Vinc*nt's doing!

Now shoo!
