 * While I think private hosting is the best option, it's not feasible for a community like this. So  x  ra  ]] 17:41, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

Private hosting
Please provide comments on your proposal
 * I've already stated what I though would be optimum, through the utilization of MediaWiki.

Discussion
We could move to another website altogether, like how wow.wikia.com moved to wowwiki.com. -- 19:51, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, but do you have any details on how we'd do that?(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  20:49, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, I actually don't. I was thinking we could ask them how they did it, if I wasn't shot down. Sorry, that was just a suggestion :/ -- 20:59, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

Like I said here, we could create our own website.

There is still Monobook after Monaco is gone. They are just keeping Monobook. If we move, we won't have Monaco because that is wikia exclusive. SeanWheeler 21:03, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

There has to be a way we can work it out without moving. LightRoxas 21:09, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

While polls (basically votes) don't solve jack, I still want the wiki to be a good place for readers, not for... wait, it's not really good for anyone...


 * Although they are keeping monobook, it will not be the automatic skin, so our pages would still look like shit. Monaco's features can almost certainly be replicated on any css we make.
 * Also, please don't place comments in the voting section. We've gone back and forth on thus forever without reaching consensus; we all know what each other will say. At this point, we need to be focusing on how we proceed from our discussions.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  22:37, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, 1, ShoutWiki loads like crap. Not good. Wikii or whatever may be fine, but, as Shard said above, it may be lacking that ability to customize. And second, what would happen to kingdomhearts.wikia.com? If we were to delete all articles and images on the site, Wikia would see it was vandalism and revert everything back to life, which, would, in effect, create two Kingdom Hearts wikis, and as mentioned before in another thread by Kryten, Google and other search engines will tend to side with Wikia and Wikipedia. That solves nothing. What the hell are we going to do? If we are voting, wouldn't it be better to give the staff the ability to vote twice, thus doubling thier power? Two votes for ShoutWiki is better than one.


 * We wouldn't delete anything. This wiki would still exist, and it would still be open for anyone to edit. -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  22:49, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * To clarify, google will side with wikia originally, but as we continue to edit at the new address, and this one continues to stagnate, we will begin getting top billing again. Also, I think Shard was talking about Oasis lacking the ability to customize, since wikkii lets you do whatever you want to your wikis, for free.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  23:12, October 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Exactly my point. Even if we all leave, a whole new batch of users will take over.  Eventually, they will adopt an order that will keep this place running, so, in other words, they will be on par with us... if we move.  oh, and could a staff member sticky this thread, please?  Oh, and Kryten, can you define "whatever you want", please.
