General Information:

"PPI," or "Player Provided Information," is bits of lore, memories, opinions, or other data on fellow players on The Final Challenge MUD. It is asked that if you do add PPI to a Player Page, that you do so in a way that is not in violation of mud rules: ie, no foul language. It is preferred that you have something positive to say, but even if your comments are negative, there is a respectful and polite way to communicate your view. Trash or smack talking in PPI notes will be deleted by the Wiki Admin Staff.

For a list of character pages with Player Provided Information, please see Category PPI. Just because a player page has existing PPI, does not preclude others from adding more!

How To:

  1. Copy this line from here: ->> {{note|[[YOUR NAME HERE]]|TODAYS DATE|YOUR DATA HERE}}<br> [[Category:PPI]] <<-- To here.
  2. Be sure you're logged in, using your wiki account.
  3. Go to the player page that you want to add PPI to. Edit the page. Scroll down to the Player Provided Information section (usually just below the Trivia section), and paste in the template, and delete the Nowiki code.
  4. Replace the "Your Name Here", "Today's Date" and "your Data Here" in the template provided above, with the appropriate information. Don't include the 'nowiki' part, if you're looking at the source of this page.
  5. IF the page does not have a Player Provided Information header, you can add one (Just below the Trivia and above the Timeline): Just type ==Player Provided Information==


Examples:

Not So Great PPI:
"JimBob was a crazy thug and I hated him."
Better PPI:
"JimBob was terrifying. I hated how good he was at finding me when I was trying to exp!!"

Not So Great PPI:
"Jane was one of those stupid RP people that flooded my info."
Better PPI:
"I could always tell when Jane was online - my info always lit up. RP like hers wasn't my thing, but I have to say she always stayed in character. We liked talking about her various adventures on Ftell."

Not So Great PPI:
"Fred suxxed as a demi!! His following droolz, we rulz!"
Better PPI:
"Fighting one of Fred's followers was always tough. He was very good at protecting them against our attacks. I have to give him props for that."

PPI That Will Be Deleted:
"John Smith was a f*c&ing cheater."
