Face it, since they rename to Fandom, they ruined this wiki service. There wasn't a long bunch of links at the end of page. There wasn't the ugly fandom logo at it is now (it's wikia back then actually). There wasn't annoying videos on the top of page. There wasn't this inconsistent design as it is now.

Yes, you have nothing to do with the waves of toxic users. Yes, you have nothing to do with PopCap and EA milking every single dollar possible out of the franchise until those game dies.

But we can do one thing. One major thing actually:

Avoid everything these staffs are doing on us AKA Move away from Wikia and land on a different site (Gamepedia to be the first choice, hands down). If that site still managed to ruin their own, we could consider create our own client. It doesn't have to be done now, tormorrow, next week, next month, next year, anytime soon. Or maybe, we will bye this site and move away?

At the end of the day, the more time we sit here, the more Fandom will ruin their own site. It may takes quite an amount of time to rebuild the same world as be have there. It's our choice: Sit with site-ruining patches - Moving away with difficuty and have a better life for everyone.

p/s: if this thing is a real vote, we should allow nonstaff to do so. This change is pretty much unrevertable and will be the largest change.

<poll> [WILL NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT] Should our wiki move to other sites (i.e. gamepedia) or staying there? Move Stay </poll> To be honest, here's something to say:

  • Mainspace features should stay as it is now. Most templates should work.
  • Discord can serve as both a forum and a trash chat room. Maybe Reddit will welcome.
  • Challenges of the Day is on the Discord, if you're curious.
