Question[edit]

Hey, Vely! For future reference, what was the IP saying? Was it something to do with one of HMSVictory's fanfics? I assumed it was nonsense because a subpage was created rather than just putting the message on the talkpage of a user who's been inactive for about 5 years. Sorry if I jumped the gun! ThuumofReason (talk) 22:02, 9 September 2013 (GMT)

The subpage of fanfiction used miles, inches, feet, etc. to measure, so my assumption was that the IP was pointing out an inaccuracy, as the imperial/US system is not used by that empire. Vely►t►e 22:13, 9 September 2013 (GMT)
Oh, okay. I never read fanfics, so I'm not familiar with how we treat that on the site. Guess I should look it over, huh? :p ThuumofReason (talk) 22:19, 9 September 2013 (GMT)
Well, we don't really treat them like anything, I guess, but someone can comment on them. Vely►t►e 22:20, 9 September 2013 (GMT)

Hrodulf and his house[edit]

Hey Vely! Two quick CK questions, for old times sake.

  • I need a full list of the loot available in the Dwemer room underneath Hrodulf's House.
  • Can you fill out the empty quest stages here?

Thanks in advance – I’ll have some caek ready! --Krusty (talk) 22:09, 12 September 2013 (GMT)

One DLC2TreasDwarvenChestSmall, three dwarven ingots and a dwarven knife on the table, one DLC2TreasDwarvenChestBoss, one dwarven bowl, one dwarven gyro, one dwarven fork, one dwarven high pot, and one dwarven high cup. On the pathway down, there's just a torch and a shovel. Vely►t►e 22:38, 12 September 2013 (GMT)
Thanks a lot! Yep, a nice little baby quest! :D --Krusty (talk) 04:30, 13 September 2013 (GMT)

vely,about my typing...[edit]

jwcway here,vely you noted about my typing and im sorry that im just now getting back 2 u.i know my typing on here is terrible,this is why,i use a Nintendo DSi to get on here mostly,i dont have a PC or comp,if u know what that means,butwith this game systems browser its like a thing that u can only type in a limited amount of space,with up 2 around 100-150 characters or letters per entry,so i try to shorten things in abbreviations,when i have alot to type,its hard sometines 2 fit all of wat im tryin to say,is there anything u can suggest so u can uderstand me,i really am a TES fan,i luv this site,& i want to get all my questions anserd.could u tell me how to write aan extending mssge.like, topic...mssge...indent reply mssge,how or what button do u press to send an reply,maybe i could,if i had avery long mssge use it to con tinue itJwcway (talk) 20:47, 28 September 2013 (GMT)

Type shorter, more concise messages. For example, "I use a DSi and thus cannot type more than 100-150 characters. Do you have any advice on communicating better?" Alternatively, find a computer to use. Or just make a few edits instead of doing it all at once. Just please type more clearly. Vely►t►e 20:57, 28 September 2013 (GMT)
vely im a little technolgically challenged with a few things on this site,im still a newbie.could you clarify what you said about making a few edits on what i want to say;like do you want me to add a new topic and edit the topic about the continuing message, or,could you tell me how to reply to user talk messages properly,like what to do when you have replied to my message and its kinda an indented edit....could you explain how to do it properly,please,also,if u can could u possibly explain it to me step by step, im confused on how to reply to make it indented under the message u replied to,sorry if im being wordy or if its confusing u. — Unsigned comment by ‎ Jwcway (talkcontribs) at 21:44 on 28 September 2013
soryy,so very sorry,i did not mean 2 post the same message 3 times,must've hit save page 3 times acidentillyJwcway (talk) 21:52, 28 September 2013 (GMT)
You add colons to indent, as you should be able to see on this page. And yes, just edit the same section a few times. Vely►t►e 22:16, 28 September 2013 (GMT)

thanks,vely,also questions...[edit]

I hope you guys don't mind me jumping in, but if you search for "crossbow" and click on the first link, Jwcway, it will take you to the Crossbows section of the Skyrim:Weapons article, which will tell you that you have to have the Dawnguard add-on to make them. Hope this is helpful to you. --Xyzzy Talk 01:02, 29 September 2013 (GMT)
I didn't forget, jwcway. Your grammar is more easy to understand now, but please do continue to make it better. Vely►t►e 01:26, 29 September 2013 (GMT)

vely,you really didnt answer my...[edit]

Do you mean you want to know all new content which is not DLC content? You can find that here, if there is any. Vely►t►e 19:05, 29 September 2013 (GMT)

Skjor[edit]

Hey Vely! I need your CS expertise, as I have several lines of unused dialogue for Skjor. The lines are from cslist, but I haven’t stumbled upon them in-game. I added the missing lines here – when you have a second, can you check the conditions and add them underneath the line in the sandbox? Caek in advance! --Krusty (talk) 16:58, 30 September 2013 (GMT)

Also, here are the four lines we talked about on IRC - for Ulfberth:
"We've got arms and armor of all kinds."
"You look like someone who knows how to wield a weapon. Well, you've come to the right place."
"If it's armor you need, we've got all kinds, both light and heavy."
"Everything you see here was made with skill and care by my wife Adrianne."
Krusty (talk) 22:56, 30 September 2013 (GMT)
All of Ulfberth's dialogue there should be said on idle (when you pass by him, I believe) when his store's open. Vely►t►e 16:43, 3 October 2013 (GMT)

question about page skyrim-Factions-Player Faction...[edit]

mentor,can i get sum editing help?[edit]

vely,iwas wanting to do my first edit,i know i shiould of started editing by now,i mean ive been a member for how long now?!!?anyway,i wanted to know how to edit a stub page,i looked at general editing page,then went under stubs,i did not understand it,like how do you gget a stub page un-stubbed,if that makes sense,.! &^(Jwcway (talk) 20:03, 19 October 2013 (GMT)

Stub pages are simply incomplete pages. They don't have nearly enough information on them to be as thorough as we would like. Vely►t►e 20:35, 19 October 2013 (GMT)

what can i help with...[edit]

what can i help with on the skyrim project for remodeling the wikis skyrim pages,im a member of it,id like 2 know what little stuff needs to be done,and advice on how 2 complete each assignment,please & thank u!Jwcway (talk) 23:16, 26 October 2013 (GMT)

Read the project page. Vely►t►e 23:30, 26 October 2013 (GMT)
k,i had what i thought was a good idea 4 the project,we could introduce a talk page or somthing similar4 it,its playing the game ocd roleplay style,like say ur @ a inn for lunch u eat at a table and buysay an appple and beef stew from the innkeeper and go to a table wait about 1 min real time for them to serve u ,then eat ur lunch,nter wait system and wait 1 hr. that woulsd b cool,u could also put ideas of character builds ,possibly a consideration,righhht,hmm?Jwcway (talk) 00:08, 27 October 2013 (GMT)
We don't document roleplaying or character builds on the wiki. There are other websites for that. Vely►t►e 00:13, 27 October 2013 (GMT)

im sorry,but i looked around...[edit]

im sorry ,also im sad, that you would say that beause when i looked for things like that on this wiki i found a role-playing kind-of character build page on the uesp oblivion pages,so does that give you a second thought about it,possibly,please reconsider,i looked really hard,because i wanted to have a page like that for skyrims fans sake,sorry am i sounding harsh,im not tryin 2 beJwcway (talk) 23:47, 27 October 2013 (GMT)

ill show u,go 2 search bar,type exactly how i put this,
Oblivion(insert colon)Roleplaying IdeasJwcway (talk) 23:57, 27 October 2013 (GMT)
As you will notice, there is a discussion about that page. Based on consensus, we will not be keeping that page in the Oblivion namespace. We may or may not keep it as an uneditable page elsewhere. This is not my wiki and not my rules: Please go elsewhere, such as our forums or another website's forums, to discuss roleplaying. We document facts about the games, not the trillions of ways one may uniquely play them. Vely►t►e 12:01, 28 October 2013 (GMT)

CK Help![edit]

Hey Vely, I know you've been doing a lot of work in the CK lately, and I need a second set of eyes to see if you can find something I can't. Somehow, on entering Broken Oar Grotto, the stage for MS07 is set to 225. I can't figure out how that's happening, and it's driving me nuts. Do you see anything I'm missing? Robin Hood  (talk) 20:48, 31 October 2013 (GMT)

Aha...obsession pays off! I even broke down and asked Arthmoor, and he couldn't figure it out either. Anyway, in case you missed my IRC message, cuz it looks like you're away right now, it turns out it's on one of the MS07 quest aliases: MS07BrokenOarEntranceStageSetter. It actually adds a script to the auto-load door that changes the stage to 225 if it's currently at 200. Arthmoor says they've done that in one or two other places as well, but it's rare...and we both agree, it's an untuitive way of doing it. :) Robin Hood  (talk) 23:22, 31 October 2013 (GMT)

Unused Miraak Dialogue[edit]

I spoke to RobinHood about it, check the discussion on my talk page.

Please could you test it in game (RobinHood wanted another person to test it just in case. I tested it on Xbox.) DGAny Questions? 20:08, 3 November 2013 (GMT)

I don't play Skyrim anymore, so no. Vely►t►e 22:48, 3 November 2013 (GMT)
I will ask someone else then. DGAny Questions? 09:37, 4 November 2013 (GMT)

about your post,mentor...[edit]

hi vely,jwcway here,i just read your post under skyrim-containers-archive 2-merchant chests.i think most people know about Akhari's chest in Dawnstar,but you said you found others by usin the clipping glitch,as amatter of fact i uzsed that glitch to get n the tower of mzark,during discerning the transmundane, daedric quest... ...anyway,could you tell me were u found the other merchants chests with as much detailed a description you can give,,like ive herd via freinds theres 1 in skyforge,could u also teell me each vender that goes with each chesst,a short how-to-get walkthrough,and please, i DO NOT play on the computer,so i DO NOT have access that console feature,so i would ask if this is acheivable on xbox360,thanx174.110.166.30 22:09, 1 December 2013 (GMT)

There are many such chests in a variety of places, and I don't know how to glitch to them. I would rather not spend time finding out all of their locations. Some are accessible on Xbox 360. I don't know which ones. Vely►t►e 00:29, 2 December 2013 (GMT)
thanx anywayJwcway (talk) 21:30, 4 December 2013 (GMT)

Community feature![edit]

Hey Vel! Just wanted to let you know you've been featured in our (first ever!) Community Interview! This is shared with everyone at UESP and on our social media pages. Congratulations and enjoy your 15 minutes of fame! :) Please let me know if anything looks incorrect. Thank you for participating! --Avron the S'wit (talk) 19:13, 27 December 2013 (GMT)

Taron Dreth[edit]

Hey Vely! Just a quick question about Taron Dreth. On his page, it is hinted that you can only encounter him in the wilderness after completing Lost to the Ages. However, it seems like he has dialogue for other encounters (like "I'm on my way to Markarth to confer with my colleague, Calcelmo. I've no time to stop and chat.") I was wondering – is it possible to meet him prior to the quest, or maybe during the quest? --Krusty (talk) 11:46, 4 January 2014 (GMT)

There is one single WE quest, WESC09. There are three different dialogue branches. Another one-line conversation is "Taron Dreth, the world's foremost expert in Dwemer metallurgy. Not that you would know anything about that." If you are holding (not necessarily wearing) the aetherial crown, staff, or shield, that topic will take priority and the other topics won't appear. If not, the other two topics ("Who are you? / What are you doing here?") will appear. The quest (wilderness encounter) may appear at any time.
So, if you put your aetherial goodies away in your house or on your follower, or you simply haven't received them yet, then he can appear and he'll say that other stuff. It's not directly related to Lost to the Ages, just the items. Vely►t►e 17:43, 4 January 2014 (GMT)

A Moth Priest Guide?[edit]

Hey Vely! I was wondering if you could look up something for me – I’m writing a walkthrough on the Prophet quest for Dawnguard, and there’s this ‘search’ for the Moth Priest. One option is to go to the College of Winterhold – but the other two options should be covered in detail. Can you extract a complete list all the carriage drivers and innkeepers that can help you out during this stage of the quest? I know it’s a bit tedious, but we need to list them. Thanks in advance! ☺ --Krusty (talk) 10:42, 14 January 2014 (GMT)

AND now you have the CK open – it is written on the vampire-version of the page that Urag gro-Shub demands a certain speech level check (if you are not Arch-Mage). Can you see the required level? --Krusty (talk) 19:14, 14 January 2014 (GMT)
Since I've got the CK open anyway.... The carriage drivers can be any of them at all, including the ones added by Hearthfire. The innkeeper is just bizarre, and I don't understand how it works at all. Maybe Vely will understand it better than I did. At the very least, the innkeeper would have to be in Solitude; those outside Solitude will just respond saying they don't know anything. Hulda looks like she won't have any dialogue options at all, if I understand correctly.
For your other question, on both sides of the quest, the persuasion check applies to both carriage drivers and innkeepers, but not to Urag - Urag gives you the information freely no matter who you are. For drivers and innkeepers, you need a speech of 50 or the Amulet of Articulation. Robin Hood  (talk) 23:14, 14 January 2014 (GMT)
Hey RH (and Vely)! I have tested the theories mentioned above, on a few select Carriage Drivers (they will all provide the info), and a few select innkeepers, and it definitely seems like only the Solitude innkeeper at the Winking Skeever will provide information. The final result (fancy table coming up) looks like this. Thanks! --Krusty (talk) 09:02, 15 January 2014 (GMT)
Hmmm...I'm wondering if the reason I didn't understand what was going on was because the part I was looking at was actually broken and doing nothing at all. If it's just the innkeeper at The Winking Skeever, then it's very likely that either he or his backup (don't remember their names off hand) will do the trick, so your wording works perfectly that way. Robin Hood  (talk) 20:34, 15 January 2014 (GMT)

Question about ESO /me Command[edit]

I noticed that you added some clarification about the /me command in ESO. Is it actually classified as an emote or is it something that is just a "chat type" modifier? If it's the latter, I'm wondering if we should move it into its own category, along with commands such as /yell and /say, which we don't have on yet. -Thunderforge (talk) 15:44, 13 March 2014 (GMT)

I believe it was listed on a list of official emotes, and it's normally classified as an emote in games, but I wouldn't oppose putting it in another category, as it has no animation and requires input after it. Vely►t►e 22:48, 13 March 2014 (GMT)

Sandbox etymology[edit]

Can I copy your etymology project to my sandbox since you intend to be inactive, I will also be mostly inactive user except when I add etymology.I made first etymology on this wiki as anonymous user and on UESP forums as Xand but I didn't decide to register because I only made few edits since then.
