<p>The Mad Engineer: </p> <hr /> <div>To be tested: on what conditions does water passing through bars creates mist, is it possible to shoot through bars? [[User:Noctis|Noctis]] 06:59, 4 November 2007 (EST)<br /> <br /> I think I read Toady saying that there was no functional difference between grates and bars, (horizontal or vertical) at the moment, so if you can shoot through grates, you can shoot through bars.<br /> <br /> <br /> This page violates '''N''', and should be swapped with [[bar]] --[[User:LegacyCWAL|LegacyCWAL]] 13:05, 22 April 2009 (UTC)<br /> : &quot;The exceptions are terms that are always plural and proper nouns.&quot; Bars (construction) are always plural in the game, unless you speak about [[metal]] bars. --[[User:Aykavil|Aykavil]] 13:22, 22 April 2009 (UTC)<br /> ::In which case [[bar]] should redirect to [[metal]] instead of here. --[[User:LegacyCWAL|LegacyCWAL]] 13:52, 25 April 2009 (UTC)<br /> :::I would agree with that. However, as things are, the page ''Bars'' indicates the page ''Metal'' if one thought of metal bar. I can't think of a simple way to indicate the page ''Bars'' on the ''Metal'' one in case one typed ''bar'' that doesn't sound silly for all the other users who just type ''metal''.--[[User:Aykavil|Aykavil]] 20:04, 28 April 2009 (UTC)</div>
