Wiki Battles. Yes or No? My 6 point karma rule.?

I don’t qualify for that one by 10 days…lol

Added myself, then removed myself when I realized.

Yes sir, we dump pasta water in bucket, hold three days and add to water/nutes.
About 5gals of pasta water into 150 gal res, once two weeks into veg, again at start of flower, again half way through flower. We also have compost tea in there, batguano, worm castings, alfalfa and neem leaves. Neem Leaf is new addition.

AMEN! Totally agree. So many just can’t be bothered even for free seeds. I don’t understand it. :smile:

great uncle … I love natural methods … banana tea … coffee grounds … or take the leaves that you defoliate and let them dump in ph 6.5 water for 2 days after removing the leaves and that water has a good concentration of nitrogen excellent in vegetation … rice decanted in water for 3 days and a panacea for flowering plants … fish bones and bones once dried and pulverized excellent source of phosphorus and potassium … I could go on

lentil seeds to germinate and then blend … it is well known that when they germinate they release a lot of auxin, excellent for rooting the roots

Wanted to put this here in case you didn’t catch it, just an idea…

Not at all. This is about people playing with the wikis and now watching it spill over into a real sign up. Overwriting has always been an issue but it seems to have gotten worse since these games started.

I agree 100%. It’s another pet peeve of mine. Folks that cannot be bothered to read the rules yet try to sign up for things. It’s funny, I said to my wife last night while watching that “wouldn’t they be surprised when someone shows up to take them in for the military service they just signed up for”. It’s just plain rude to try to sign up for something without even taking the couple seconds it takes to read about what they are signing up for or how they are supposed to do it.

In the end the NL5 wiki had 166 edits to put up 76 names. I just don’t understand this issue. With tons of spots on the list when people see a system warning saying there is an edit conflict that asks if they want to proceed why do they click yes? People know full well they are doing wrong as they get a warning they have to click on but they choose to ignore that warning. It’s sad to watch.

It’s weird. Somehow I ended up overwriting myself. Then I ended up on the list twice. Then I deleted one of my signups.

Not saying you’re wrong but strange things happen.

I agree that sometimes folks make mistakes and stuff happens. When I first brought this up yesterday there were 85 edits for 32 names. I was in spot one so I watched the stuff unfold. I watched several people get overwritten multiple times. It’s not the occasional mistakes but rather the intentional overwriting that get’s me. Several times I went to fix something and had to back out due to the edit conflict message that I know everyone else get’s as well when doing it. Too many people just ignore that message. That’s the point when talking about making a wiki into a giveaway game where the goal is to intentionally overwrite others and than get rewarded for it. I just feel that reinforces bad behavior. In the end there are a million ways to do a giveaway. In my opinion choosing the one that rewards the bad behavior we see in real life sign ups is just not a good idea and spills over into signups as we saw yesterday. Buy hey, that’s just my opinion for what it’s worth. Everyone is entitled to their own :slight_smile:

I confess, I am guilty of doing this once, do not remember which signup. It was quickly fixed and I know what I did wrong and it will not happen again. Since then Ive wondered why the overwrite function is even available. A sucsessful edit defaults to “save edit” and you’re good to go… If theres a conflict the button defaults to, something like “overwrite”? Why can it not default to “cancel edit” when conflict is present

I wish I knew. I have mentioned before that I would love to see it set in the system that only one person can edit at a time. Instead of an edit conflict I would rather see the system kick up a message saying the wiki is in use and not let the person in to edit. That would be the ultimate fix if the system would not let more than one person in to edit at a time. I just don’t know that it’s a feature that is there to be used. I doubt it is or they would likely have turned it on by now.

Yep, good idea, even better to not let multiple users into the edit function. Surely it is possible if the right person has access to how things are coded/programmed/written

Preaching to the choir! I don’t understand why this isn’t so :+1:

  • Collaboratively edit wiki posts
    It is listed as one of Discourses features.

I think something like

First three votes get a pack of seeds

Giveaway
  • :us: Allowed
  • :eu: not shipping to (sorry guys)
  • :canada: Not this time

0 voters

It would be better for the use case if we could instead of calendar, use vote limit and set the number of packs. (I don’t know if we have that ability in the client)
