And I cannot understand you at times, Cerez. The obligation of this wiki is to provide a resource, of which is information. You can blow it out of proportion by saying you haven't failed the world, but you are indeed failing somewhere. "There are hundreds of other places that people can go to do this. Is it going to kill you to open another tab?" I cannot believe the audacity of that statement. I seriously have to ask why you are here, and why this wiki even exists if you're going to just half ass it and not even care on improving it, which you so willingly contradict within the same post.

You also are blowing the idea of a general forum being open quite out of proportion. And the reason people say it is, as you put it, "archaic" is because your opinion simply does not work anymore. And in truth, it never really did. Sure, it temporarily fixed an issue you may have had, but there are ways around it. And with the changes to Wikia itself that have come, such as no more anons, the problems that created your outdated patching is virtually non-existent. Yet you act like it is the holy god of things and should be revered, never touched. Why? What purpose does it serve, not allowing this wikia to better serve its job? Exactly what purpose does your "archaic" opinion serve? This sentence is going to be heavily redundant, but your opinion is invalid if the cause of it no longer exists. So why are you refusing? You don't even sound like you understand why. You just say no without any foundation, chalking it up to "obligation". Obligation to exactly what?

Hell, I have no issue focusing on just editing the wikia. I haven't even made an edit since October, if memory serves correctly. I honestly actually don't care about using the forum or chat. But that does't mean I cannot argue in favour of something that seems so blatantly obvious when presented the points. And there is a reason archaic things (especially laws) tend to die out -- they don't work or are stupid, unreasonable, and silly. So do the forum, don't do the forum. I don't care deep down. But refusing to even cooperate and look at the benefits to what it can bring to this wikia, along with being fine with just half-assing something is so far beyond disappointing. You don't tell people to go to another site for information or answers. You WANT people on THIS site. You want them to use your information. You want them to come here and ask questions if they have them. Because that is what this wikia is about -- providing information. Stop being obtuse.
