Wide is likely the name of the spawen of the meat... Each spawn has a name and most of them tend to sound like giberish... Generally you'll here people asking for some thing like: "Buying current spawn of Dath carni meat Osim...". Chances are wide is just the name.


And Ranger actually has a real nice community here. Don't worry to much about getting flamed and ask any questions you may need answered.


Hope thi helps...

the name is misleading.

a good spawn of steel on TC was called: Wagic.

it was great stuff. everyone remembered the name (easy enough) and it was called 'the magic Wagic' for months.

instead of 'wide', pronounce it 'why-deh'. it might help.

it is a SPECIFIC 'shift' of lokian carnivore meat. resources 'shift' every week or so... if you're collecting 'Wide' right now, grab it fast. if you /harv meat and get a DIFFERENT 'name' on lok carni meat, you've missed the shift.

I don't know your server, I don't know your resource spawn... but when someone asks for 'Wagic', they aren't asking for 'Steel'... they're asking for 'steel that has amazing stats that was harvested from TC in late 2003/early 2004'... which is different from every steel before or since.

from swgcraft.com 7th April 2005):

Server Chimeara, Planet Lok

- Carnivore Meat

Wide, Lokian Carnivore Meat (Entered By Fanta / Not Verified)
DR=284, FL=736, PE=882, OQ=987 * (Edit Stats / Verify)
» Marked as available 9 days ago by Fanta (Unavailable)


The Oeverall Quality (OQ), Potential Energy (PE) and Flavour (FL) are all very nice - Bio-Engineers and Chefs will love this stuff.

And "Wide" is the random generated name for this resource spawn.

It was marked as available 9 days ago - so you'll be lucky to find it now ... get there quick !!!!

it mostly depends on YOU...

if you strut in to a forum and ask the SAME question that's been asked eleventeen times before... ESPECIALLY if the question is covered in the FAQ or a sticky thread (a thread that 'floats' at the top of the forum), then don't expect a warm welcome.

to MTVgen: what you did RIGHT:

"TOTAL NOOB" good start if you're looking for help... but there ARE forums that will tell you to "cry more".

"QUESTION" can go either way. you went the right way.

"SO DON'T TRASH ME!" that almost INVITES flames, but... to the meat!

Ok I know this is totally gonna get trashed and its a stupid question (again... dangerous opening... but sometimes risking a pawn is worth it) but what is Wide (Lok Carnivore Meat )? I mean I know what Carnivore meat is but what is wide? (good question here... you confuse the WORD 'Wide' with the RESOURCE TAG of 'Wide'... an easy mistake, and with no documentation to help you figure it out) Just saw a contract for it but can't find anything on http://www.swgcreatures.com/ that mentions wide for Lok Carnivore meat... (4 teh win! YOU DID RESEARCH. you had a question, you looked for the answer on your own, and THEN you came here for help. good stuff.)

Thanks.(adding the THANKS is another point in your favor)


in MY opinion, that's why you didn't get flamed or trashed. the ranger forum IS more forgiving than most, but the most active folk around here are HARSH and UNRELENTING when engaged in verbal sparring amongst themselves. of course, rangers, being solitary folk, trade personal attacks rather than compliment each other... only the BEST of friends can give and take the abuse that shows up around here.

punchbowl?

former corr in hawtpants?

yeah. this place gets wicked sometimes.
