I didn't even realize that  . Well, since now I've done all the editing I'm going to do on that page, let me know if there are any errors that I don't know about now!   

EDIT: Zebh helped me realize that you meant that you loaded the page before I hid the Hamachi/Wippien pages (since they no longer are being really used for anything)

- sometimes u expanded admin to administrator, but at other times u didnt.

- "If somebody fails to join your computer it won’t make a sound" they are trying to join your channel not your computer, i dont know why u put the word "it" in

- u changed the count of kit, from "some kit" to "a kit" changing the meaning of kit to clothing perhaps removing the instance of the british slang "kit" would be wise.

Ok, I should have corrected the errors that were errors . Computer was in the original document  .

Kit can have multiple meanings afterall - was just trying remove slang

In Coopertive Multiplayer:Klingon Empire:Fast Vorcha, you have two different sentence styles hybridized into one incorrect sentence:
"When the Field Yard is complete produce do nothing with it. It will serve as a repair yard only for the moment."

Also, the dilithium limited icon is overlapped by text in the Early Mixed-tech section on that same page.

the original read:
If somebody fails to join your computer won’t make a sound

which does make sense.

i admit, though, that a comma after "join" would clarify, as the original is confusing

so clarified it is:
If somebody fails to join, your computer won’t make a sound

so your computer is not making a sound

even better would be:
If somebody fails to join your channel, your computer won’t make a sound

you changed it to:
If somebody fails to join your computer it won’t make a sound

EDIT: in the firewall section the paths of the exes are split into multiple lines. they would look nicer on 1 line each. to make copy pasta tastier.

Ah, I see . You must have seen an old edit however, as I did change it to "channel" not computer. Refresh that browser!

I force my browser to never cache anything. Helps with these issues.

Corrected - not sure about the second issue though. Perhaps try adjusting the size at which your font is. At my default setting I get nothing like that

Didn't even notice that, thanks

I fixed the issue by widening my web browser slightly. The word overlapping was refinery.

the first one still sometimes gets split onto two lines, the image does it.

maybe move the paths down another line or two.

"Rhienn Class
Rhienn class vessels are a new design of the Romulan Star Empire, built in answer to the Federation's Defiant class, after the vessel's overwhelming performance in the Dominion War battles..."

"Leahval Class
The Leahval class is the Romulan answer to the Federation Defiant class, which rendered itself very efficient in the Dominion War..."

Those two sections virtually next to each other look suspiciously similar.  Not that it isn't understandable that the Defiant freaks out the Romulans.

Yup, the Defiant scared the crap out of the Romulans and so a lot of the newer vessels were built with it in mind . The new streamlined and fully accurate lore will arrive via Optec - the stuff I put there is just scrounging for bits of information on old FO sites, as well as from Optec . No guarantees it is all accurate - that's why it's apocryphal  . I hadn't noticed that those two sentences were so close though. Very interesting (I think one was taken from 2004, and the other from closer to the present day)

I updated it to .xlsx... seems to work on my computer now - strange that it gave me an error too
