User blog:Artimas Hunter/Wikia is Falling Apart...

OK, maybe that was a little melodramatic. Our wiki is fine as of now and it makes me really sad to do this, disrupt the peace and whatever, but I think every user has to know.

As many of you are aware, the new skin has caused a heck of a lot of protests. But things are getting ugly. LOTS of wikis are leaving wikia. And even more users. I don't want WFW to be likes that (and I don't think it will).

You guys can go on here for more background (http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Your_First_Look_at_the_New_Wikia_(discussion) ) but here are the basicnesses. Those are the basic facts I can tihnk of. I'm moving all my made wikia to the AWA (or I'll try...given my known failing at codes) because most of them have less then 100 articles and I don't want them to get crushed by this. I'm staying here, but I really dissapport wiki now.
 * Wikia made the new skin because the bigwig ad companys needed 'more space'. Wiki sacrificed our space for their profit. They actually apprently offered them space in our articles but the bigwigs wanted HUGE ads right on the top.
 * Wikia made the switch to get the bucks, thus, sacrificing the smaller wikis to this.
 * Other wikis have been having the same problems as us, siggy issues, no room, annoyence, um...not even being able to edit occassionally!
 * (Nothing to really do with this issue) Wiki promotes only the bigwig wikis, HP (Which does rock..), Glee, Poptarts (wth?). idk, that annoyed me. xD
 * Wikias are being bribed with better skins so they will stay. Not the little ones like us, the 80,000 page ones.
 * Wikia blocked a user for protesting the new look - indefinately.
 * Wikias are leaving to the AWA: http://awa.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page#Wikis_who_have_left_Wikia
