[quote="Dark_Lord_Galen"][quote="Anonymous"]Hello, I apologize for disturbing you,..... I must admit I have always used your wiki as a leech rather than a proactive supporter. In other words, this means I deeply appreciate the extension and depth of your work... but there are some reasons why I have never taken up the idea of helping you out. The reasons are quickly said: during last 12 years, together with some friends, I have always played a rather heretic and distorted Greyhawk setting... we always used Greyhawk as a starting base and as a general idea without respecting its canon....... As you might imagine I appreciate your "heresy" section, although I do not think I am ready to contribute. So, what I am looking for is just the possibility to read your wiki pages as I have done so far.[/quote] First, welcome... even in the middle ages leeches were believed to bring useful and beneficial "help" hehe so with that dont be afraid to give feedback and input..... as you pointed out... there is a "heretical sub-section" .. I know there has been log on issues with the Wiki for the last several weeks and I'm sure there is a work in correcting this... but when this is resolved dont feel you can't bring something to make a great forum even better... its the participants that make the difference. All hail the dark shadowy places of the world... hehhe Dark Lord Galen[/quote]

The only restricted access with regards to the Great Library of Greyhawk Wiki relates to posting content. This wiki is made up of only canon sources, and where something is of arguable canonicity it is cited as such. The reason for this is to control the veracity of the content, which is why access to posting on the GH Wiki is restricted to a small number of people. Anybody can view the GH Wiki though. Well, at least when it is up. <br /> <br /></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Anonymous wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">The second doubt is whether there is a problem with the machine or network I am actually using.

To some of you it might sound unacceptable, while other will readily understand that after some years of campaign one is not willing to turn Drawmij's skin colour just because a handbook tells you it is so.
