Mike: link to real staff page

{{construction|reason=Information on IDB's history is needed.}}

The '''In-Depth Battlepedia''', or '''IDB''', is one the largest and earliest collections of information regarding [[Battledome]] [[weapons]]. It is designed as an expansion of the [[Battlepedia]] and provides a searchable database of almost 2,500 weapons, maintained by a large selection of volunteers.

In addition to indexing nearly double the number of weapons that the Battlepedia does, IDB provides much more detailed information about weapon effects - including the quantity of items, extensive testing as the likeliness of healing, freezing, and so forth, and mathematical dissection of the exact number of icons, by damage, that a weapon strikes with. IDB weapon raters also review many of the weapons.

The In-Depth Battlepedia provides a forum for the discussion of Neopets and the Battledome, and hosts a large quantity of information related to the Battledome in addition to just weaponry - such as [[Negg]] effects, methods of training, [[Faerie]] [[Battledome Abilities|abilities]], and a damage calculator. On the 25th September 2008, IDB introduce a weapon simulator ("BD SIM") to simulate the outcome of battles between [[Neopet]]s with certain attributes and weapons.

==Forums==
The IDB Forums were created on February 7th, 2004. As a Battledome-orientated fansite, the IDB forums contains various forums relating exclusively to the Battledome, including:

*'''Battledome Central''' - A forum of discussion of general Battledome-related topics.
*'''Challenge Central''' - A forum where forum members can find opponents to challenge in the Battledome.
*'''Weapons Advice & Comparisons''' - A forum for discussion and rating of various [[Battledome Equipment|weapon sets]].
*'''War Room''' - A forum where information relating to Neopets wars can be discussed, and where information relating to IDB's own wars, such as sign-up forms, are located.
*'''Battler's Trading Forum''' - A forum for the trading of Battledome Equipment and other related items in the [[Trading Post]].

IDB also hosts an active area where users can submit articles for other users to read on topics ranging from Battledome tips to training guides. Although IDB focuses on the Battledome, there are additional forums for other topics.

The section on Neopets contains forums for posts relating to Neopets but not necessarily the Battledome, while the Miscellaneous section covers a vast variety of topics including IDB's version of [[Wikipedia:Mafia (game)|Werewolf]], which is the longest running Werewolf series on any Neopets fan site (game #46 as of May 7, 2007).

In the time before time, there was a man, two men, a very big man and a monkey, all together fighting for what is right. no matter what the cost, they would get their taco bell. A taco buritto of a tasty nature, one which would not burn their mouths.
[[Image:Kanrik.gif|frame|left|[[Kanrik]] is thankful he doesn't need to fight the Bringer of Night Anymore!]]
This summer, see the battle that should have been fought fairly, but was rigged from the start. He was an honest man making an honest wage, getting by in a wretched world, when they suddenly took it all away. Now he's getting it back. He must return to the arcade and face off against his fear, and finally defeat "The Legend of MAX" at DDR Extreme, and this time not trip over his feet.

In-Depth Battlepedia

Mike: /* Forums */ small addition

{{construction|reason=Information on IDB's history, forums, staff, etc is needed.}}

The '''In-Depth Battlepedia''', or '''IDB''', is one the largest and earliest collections of information regarding [[Battledome]] [[weapons]]. It is designed as an expansion of the [[Battlepedia]] and provides a searchable database of almost 2,500 weapons, maintained by a large selection of volunteers.

In addition to indexing nearly double the number of weapons that the Battlepedia does, IDB provides much more detailed information about weapon effects - including the quantity of items, extensive testing as the likeliness of healing, freezing, and so forth, and mathematical dissection of the exact number of icons, by damage, that a weapon strikes with. IDB weapon raters also review many of the weapons.

The In-Depth Battlepedia provides a forum for the discussion of Neopets and the Battledome, and hosts a large quantity of information related to the Battledome in addition to just weaponry - such as [[Negg]] effects, methods of training, [[Faerie]] [[Battledome Abilities|abilities]], and a damage calculator.

:''Note: Being in a higher group generally implies being in a lower group as well. For example, a super moderator is also a rater.''
