Guys... you can't be serious.

I'm so sorry if the last posts by me and other people have offended you, but 3 people (including me) have said that they would like to bash Wikia as much as possible, and you're the only one who doesn't want to.

But you have no right to drag other communities, wiki-farms and companies into your hate-war.

Yes, but we are the community, and we have decided to be involved in hating Wikia. It looks like this discussion is not for you; you have the right to not be involved in it.

I doubt that Wikkii would retaliate.  It's possible that Wikia might make some bogus legal threat that Wikkii might give in to, and delete these posts, but not remove their supporters.

The stuff that Wikia has done has gone far beyond being made up for by "paying the bills."  There changes are not just "their right."  They had thousands of people complaining about the changes, and yet they still went through with them.

---

Wikia has started its policy of terror and dictatorship across thousands of wikis, and has desysoped, blocked, and harassed everyone.  They have entered this phase under the rather childish delusion that they were going to harass everyone else, and that no one would retaliate.  At The Vault, WoWWiki, and the Simpsons Wiki, they have put their naive theory into operation.  They have sowed the wind and now they will reap the whirlwind.

I'll create a Special Operations Executive wiki that we can manage this from, and possibly also use for the Wikkii branch of the Anti Wikia Alliance.

Actually, that just reminded me. Today marks the four year anniversary of Wikia making terrible changes, as, on 6 June 2008, Sannse stated that "the ad market has changed and Wikia needs to keep up", and they would add large amounts of additional advertising, some of which would be in the content area.

Before that change, there were no notable complaints about Wikia. On 17 June 2008, they did that change, and wikis started to leave. Of course, though, in 2010, Wikia got out the big guns and started to make changes which made even more people leave, as they swapped their skin for one that was terrible. They continue to make terrible changes to this day, such as the message wall, and their pathetic attempt at a logo.

It wouldn't even be that bad if they didn't remove people from their own wikis and insisted on keeping the mirrors of wikis that moved.

I just created a Farmer wiki at http://soe.wikkii.com until the advanced version is approved.
