Calling Wikia "horrible" and "faceless" is a bit of an exagerration. They are honestly trying to give the layout an easier interface. It works on some levels, and I see where they are going. However, the fact that this is such a template-heavy wiki gives us problems, since we have formatted so many of our changes to Monaco/Monobook. But to accuse them of such things as "empty promises and lies" is a huge overstatement.

{{Soxra|ienzo=That's probably true. I'm not sure what exactly that was supposed to mean, unless it is saying that we get the same freedom (in terms of themes, privacy control, data management rights, and so on).

However, unlike the DB Guy, Wikkii has a lot less to loss, should they pull a wikia.

Another reason to speed up the revote: The new template viewing system that just got rolled out has made it so that talk bubbles pop in and out of view, unless you click a button. {{User:Chitalian8/Sig}} 22:52, December 8, 2010 (UTC)
