Talk:Catacombs

I realize there's no catacombs announced yet; however, it's suggested, and having this page here will at least help those who are excited and confused and come to the wiki in search of answers.

Perhaps a disclaimer at the top warning that none of this is verified and is merely speculation- I'm sure that the readers would appreciate the mere fact that there's some sort of news here.--Kirbix 21:23, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

it is verified.

go to the help section of the trapsmith, it explains that it is the catacombs and the new power type is arcane--Chong McBong 21:25, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Until they say there's an area called the catacombs, we don't know what they mean. That's why I said it's suggested; there's been no official announcement of any catacombs and it could be a name that doesn't actually refer to any area we see. Hence the disclaimer- MHWiki does not generally support heavy rumormongering, and we don't have enough solid fact for it to be much more than that.--Kirbix 21:28, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

good point :) --Chong McBong 21:29, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

And yet here we are posting info on several pages about stuff that hasn't been announced yet. I'm on record as being solidly against such practices. It serves no good purpose and potentially creates a mess we'll have to beg a dev to clean up, since no one else has delete privileges. Just my $0.02, which may be worthless depending on exchange rates. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 21:51, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

>_> You know that I know better than most about your views in regard to rumors. That's why I'm asking here if we can keep it with a disclaimer. The idea is that everything on here IS true, and it gives readers something to look to as some definitive answers to the rumors that are already flying across the forums.

This is a plea of appeasement to you, honest.--Kirbix 21:54, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Asking after the fact is pointless. The page now exists and without intervention from a dev, it's here for good. I'm disappointed that it couldn't wait until it was official, but I'm not going to argue and I'm not going to tag it for deletion. I just wish people (in general) could show a little more self-restraint instead of having to be the first to create a page or post new information before someone else can. There's plenty of work to be done without spending time on guesswork and rumor. IMHO, as always. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 22:02, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

If our goal is to help the users, then even a useless page that is able to say later on "we thought this was an area but were wrong" isn't really a waste. If it's helping people now, then it ought to be here now. (In my own opinion, of course) --Kirbix 22:06, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree... this is all speculation. I created a catacombs tab in the referenced locations, because as of now, that is all it is. It might be more, and I think it will be, but we don't know for sure.--Skittlesandmnms 18:33, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
