First off, I'm sorry, it was late and I didn't type out what I meant, but you dont have to be so rude. What I meant was, would anyone like to type out a tutoral on how to use ASSS, because that WOULD be a thing to put in this site. I was thinking something very in depth, for someone who just downloaded Continuum. Some of the things we have on the site, are from basic knowledge of the people who have been working with Continuum alot. Just a suggestion... | First off, I'm sorry, it was late and I didn't type out what I meant, but you dont have to be so rude.

[http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=history MediaWiki's History] shows a bunch of idiots posting spam and defacing the site. If its subpages, not everyone will see it, and won't be as destructive. Doing it to the front page just becomes annoying, and I would not to not have to deal with it. Plus, I already mentioned that the admins here can hand out Sysop mode to people all they want, so if you have a good history of contributions, it won't be hard to be a sysop here. | ||

Underlined Links? WTF
Why are all the links underlined all of a sudden? Is this a personal setting?
Well I found the setting in misc:personal settings, but it doesn't work help! and why is the default ugly underlined? --bak
The links only underline for me when I hover over them. I checked me settings and the checkbox to underline links is checked (by default I think). --smong
Browsing
Since the pages here load somewhat slowly, you may have noticed I'm trying to combine pages as much as I can. So I tried to incorporate all the Browse stuff into the main page. If anybody wants something else, please add it. Also, if everyone's happy with this, I'll delete the Browse page. (I didn't link it since it might get deleted, sorry.) --Cyan~Fire

It says "SubSpace", as Akai has been promoting. And it's VIE Subspace. --Cyan~Fire

Mine GO BOOM 20:56, Mar 11, 2006 (EST): As it seems that the Wiki people don't care about automated spam bots, I had to do some of my own little hacking. This means, instead of some fancy scheme, I'll just add a simple human trick. In the Login/Create new Account page, there is a little check box (with a pretty variable name) that isn't on any other wiki site. That has to be checked for a new account to be created. If a human forgets it, the error message tells you so. And as you cannot edit a page without creating an account, this is a simple fix.
