Suggestion: Build Word Count

[quote=Zeprido]In the middle of writing a guide, it certainty would be conveniently awesome to have a built in word count for each chapter/section with a total at the top/bottom.[/quote]

[quote=Cháncellor]To be honest, if youre just trying to make a build to meet the minimal word count so you can throw it out there, its gonna be met with hostility. Try to include as much information/tips/combos or whatever else you can think of so anyone who looks at your guide doesnt walk away with questions. Youll feel good about it and everyone who reads your guide will tell you how good it is. You WANT to look at the guide building process by wanting to have the highest rated guide on here. No one should want to be second. Players come here to get spoon-fed all of their wanted information, dont disappoint them by not obliging. ;][/quote]

Trying to make this a "guide" not a "build" =)[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]I imagine that the feature would only be useful for avid guide makers who really want to know how long each section is, and to be honest, most of those people probably don't really mind pasting into word that much. It's a little annoying, but not difficult, and not that time-consuming either.[/quote]

[quote=Matt]I don't see any harm. I'll add it to the list, but it might be a while before we get to it as there's a lot of higher priority stuff :)[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]Matt, out of interest, what is on the "list" thus far? :D[/quote]

[quote=Matt]It is a very long list :) We have a list of smaller items (bugs, quick features, tweaks). Then a second, separate list of larger items and projects to expand the site. Too lazy to count how many are in there but suffice to say we won't be running out of work any time soon![/quote]

[quote=DEWO]FEATURE ADDED! 1. Ctrl+C 2. Open Word Document 3. Ctrl+V 4. Go to word statistics 5. CLICK! 6. Profit :)[/quote]

[quote=Zeprido]It's more like this actually for exact amount as I prefer not to copy pictures... 1. Go to Guide 2. Select Text 3. Ctrl+C 4. Open Word Document 5. Ctrl+V 6. Repeat steps 1-5 14 times 7. Check word count 8. Profit.... 9. Be sad that 2-3 minutes were just wasted [quote=Matt] It is a very long list :) We have a list of smaller items (bugs, quick features, tweaks).
