Don't believe the past problems with talkpages? [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Editcount Go] here and type in a few usernames, I'm not going to name names but THIS is why we removed blogs and created the IRC channel. One user had 2,937 edits to talk pages and 543 edits to the mainspace! If users want to talk about irrelevant topics that differ from Kingdom Hearts/editing help/invitation to the IRC they can do so through e-mail, online social networking sites, blogs or even through on-line games; this is not the place for it!}}

{{BebopKate|time=23:30, January 5, 2010 (UTC)|text=What Xion said, pretty much.
This was something the wiki as a whole decided on ages ago, as casual conversation was getting to be too much to handle in combination with wiki duties.  Now, we're not going to play Talk Page police and strike down everyone who has gets a little off-topic; goodness knows we all do once in a while.  But if we notice a lot of talk page activity, and ''none'' of it for the talk page's intended purpose, someone will call you out on it.
As for the IRC and our younger users, many of us understand and are sympathetic (and as much as we'd like to have you, good on your parents for caring enough to keep an eye on you and keep you safe! ^_^)  At some point in the future, Wikia has mentioned playing with more BBS-style forums; while I don't know how they'll work in conjunction with the wiki itself, it's likely that might provide an additional outlet to the social aspects of the wiki that will allow younger editors or IRC-phobes a better way to socialize.  It's just something we have to wait on, unfortunately.}}

{{R&D|time=23:55, January 5, 2010 (UTC)|text=I think talk pages should be used only for wiki related conversation or very fast and small "non-wiki related" conversation. The rest goes to IRC. Pretty much what xion said.}}
{{JFHavoc|time=18:42, January 6, 2010 (UTC)|text=Wait, I know a lot of users have a rule about chatting on their talk pages, but is this actually a policy?}}
{{BebopKate|time=00:46, January 7, 2010 (UTC)|text=Yup, 'twas decided on ages ago.  However, we realize it's not widely known and we're trying to rectify that, along with clarifying some other rules.}}

{{Xion4ever|time=18:43, January 7, 2010 (UTC)|text=What war? This was decided upon a long time ago, but was brought up again as a reminder. There is no war, IRC channel exists for main talk. All other irrelevant topics besides editing/help/invitation to IRC should take place on the IRC channel, case closed.}}
