Ok, i've gone through edited the all the day job badge links and added "Day Job" to them as some were linking to different badges, example being the [Doctor] badge which was going to the healing badge not the day job badge

Example of what i've done: From ((Arachnos Official Badge|Arachnos Official)) to ((Arachnos Official Day Job Badge|Arachnos Official))
==Issue 14 Multi-Credit==


I was going to change just the ones affected, but I thought I might as well do them all, and that way have some continuity with them, hopefully this should stop any confusion with them before it starts :)  -- [[User:Dustified|Dustified]] 03:42, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
[[Issue 14]] seems to have tweaked many day job locations. For instance, the Base Portal in Talos Island was moved, and can no longer be used for dual credit on {{BadgeLink|Monitor Duty}} and {{BadgeLink|Commuter}}. I have seen mentions on the [[Official Forums]] about RWZ multi-credit locations being tweaked. I am removing everything from the front page until we can verify stuff. See [[/Archive2|Page 2]] of the archives for the old listings. -- [[User:Aggelakis|Agge]] ([[User_talk:Aggelakis|talk]]) 19:31, 10 April 2009 (UTC)


== Duplicate Day Jobs ==
All the Mercy Island day job locations near Kalinda will only give credit for 1 day job at a time. -- [[User:Snow Globe|Snow Globe]] 05:18, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


Just checking on all my alts and I had one that while in the hospital at Mercy Island, earned both Arachnos Agent & Pain Specialist.
:I logged out in most of the previous dual-locations with different characters and only got one badge credit at a time at each location. Removed Section. -- [[User:Aggelakis|Agge]] ([[User_talk:Aggelakis|talk]]) 18:09, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:Correct.  In that case you are both in a hospital and inside an Arachnos-controlled area.  Standing at the base portal in Talos Island allows you to earn both Commuter and Monitor Duty at the same time.  Parking in the hospital inside the Vanguard base in RWZ counts toward both Caregiver/Pain Specialist and Vanguard Recruit. There are other locations that offer multiple day jobs as well. --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 19:45, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

:::When you're standing there logged in, you'll only see one icon, however, my Controller who's been logged out there since before I13 is was showing equal progress on both Caregiver and Vanguard Recruit when I logged him in last night.  Same thing with the dual progress on Commuter and Monitor Duty in Talos; you'll only see one icon for the day job location while logged in, but progress accumulates on both badges if you're standing in the right area.  --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 22:03, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
== Gold Side Day Jobs? ==


:::: Seems to be the way you describe. Add another two to the list, Hospital in Grandville, Arachnos Official and Pain Specialist. At least for standing on the lip of the door. Also, heroside Vault in Pocket D for Clubber and Banker/Thief. However, the Arachnos base in Siren's Call doesn't count as for Pain Specialist and the Hero Hospital in Siren's doesn't count for Predator. -~- [[User:Baalus Seth|Baalus Seth]] 20:32, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

:Moved the detailed accolade listing over here from [[Day Jobs]] since otherwise it'd just be duplicate tables from the main Day Jobs page. -- [[User:Aggelakis|Aggelakis]] 01:59, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
 
== X Day Job Badge ==
I had deliberately made these badges to be "X Day Job Badge", going against naming convention, because they are not just badges. They are actually Day Jobs and Badges at the same time. This is why I did not go with "X Badge" in the first place. I would like to put it to a vote to return Day Job to these badges' namespaces. -- [[User:Aggelakis|Agge]] ([[User_talk:Aggelakis|talk]]) 16:06, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
:Wouldn't the day job badges be treated the same as gladiator or accolade badges?  Gladiator badges give you more than just a badge, too, but we don't call them "X Gladiator Badge," nor do we call Accolades that give you bonuses/powers "X Accolade Badge." --[[User:Blondeshell|Blondeshell]] 20:44, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 
: I very strongly oppose moving them back. It completely breaks convention with all of our other badges. "Day Job" should not be in the title. The points Blondeshell makes with regards to gladiators and accolades are spot on. I do not see any benefit to putting day job in the title. Even if they do somewhat cover the day job aspect, that does not need to be in the title. If necessary, make a redirect from "X Day Job" to "X Badge". I'd even support separating the Day Job information into separate "Day Job" articles, if need be. But naming it "X Day Job Badges" it misleading. You state the they are actually covering two things: the day job and the badge. If that's the case, then the title should be "X Day Job and Badge" or "X Badge and Day Job"--which further emphasizes that perhaps they should be split in some fashion if we really want to keep the Day Jobs at an article-level status. -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 01:56, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
 
== Merge Tables? ==
 
Personally, I believe the Hero/Villain Day Job tables would look better were they merged, especially since both sides get badges that give the same rewards. Thoughts? - [[User:Baalus Seth|Baalus Seth]] 20:32, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
 
: I worry that the table might be too wide and would make things get lost in the mix. Right now, each table is very straightforward. If you combined them, it would be a lot of extra info that might get in the way if you were just looking for one or the other. That said, it might work... just would have to see and compare I think. If you want, put a copy of what you envision here on the talk page. -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 19:27, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Issue 14 Multi-Credit

Issue 14 seems to have tweaked many day job locations. For instance, the Base Portal in Talos Island was moved, and can no longer be used for dual credit on Monitor Duty and Commuter. I have seen mentions on the Official Forums about RWZ multi-credit locations being tweaked. I am removing everything from the front page until we can verify stuff. See Page 2 of the archives for the old listings. -- Agge (talk) 19:31, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I logged out in most of the previous dual-locations with different characters and only got one badge credit at a time at each location. Removed Section. -- Agge (talk) 18:09, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

TOCright

removed {{TOCright}} -- does not play well with {{Badgenav}} - Sekoia

{{TOCright}} exists on every badge tab page, and I see no issues with it on this or any other badge tab page. O.o? -- Agge (talk) 02:42, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
I took a screenshot of how it was rendering for me: File:Screenshot-Day-Job-Badges-Article.png (linking instead of inlining since it's big). We had two right-floats, and the badge one was to the left of the TOC. And between the two of them, they took up over half the width. I thought it looked really bad. In all honesty, I don't really like how the Badgenav is implemented -- navboxes should go at the bottom of the article, they shouldn't be right-floats at the top.
