:Could we make a "Gifts from the gods" (unsure of title) page with these sections: |
|||
:*Items Delivered Via GIFTBOX (verb) (this section would replace the current article's Examples section and contain the same/more info to be transcluded) |
|||
:*Items Appearing Mysteriously (spider charms and other items that appeared on your character or dropped into their hands from the sky) |
|||
:*Items Delivered Via Special Portal (like the 15th anniversary gift) |
|||
:I can think of two reasons to make such a page (except needs a better title ): |
|||
:*To quickly disseminate information to confused players about the latest "gift from the gods" |
|||
:*To preserve this information in a timeline/list for historic reasons and for those who just enjoy reminiscing |
|||
:Does such a page already exist? If not, what is a good title for such a page? All input is much appreciated. I know this message concerns more than just this GIFTBOX (verb) page but I think it MOSTLY concerns this page, due to how giftboxes delivered via the GIFTBOX (verb) seem to be the way of the future... which is why I put my response here.

1. Lost in time. That was the Spider for conversion to the Web, no?
- No, I'm pretty sure those just showed up on your person when you first logged in after the move. The first giftboxes I actually remember were the ones in 2003 with the profession items. In the article, the first listing was merely (1. ?) so I changed it to (1. Currently lost to time.) I'm not sure whether there was one or not, but no, pretty sure it wasn't the spider charm.--ECHEAUX (talk) 10:17, 4 January 2020 (CST)
Do we need a list of the giftbox profession items then?
