:It makes sense. | |||
:I've made most of the changes. I rewrote the lede about your decision to leave to match what you just wrote here, mentioned the decision to make GTAWikia a modding wiki and Wikia Staff's veto of that, completely rephrased the sentence about users who remained on Wikia to remove quantifiers, used the term "staff" instead of sysops (which is a good idea regardless since "sysop" is only familiar to people who're fluent in wikipedia-lingo), and tried to make it clearer that the sites aren't affiliated with each other. | |||
:As far as "how much you're allowed to promote" Grand Theft Wiki on GTAWikia, that's not a decision I can unilaterally make. I think it's fair for you to be able to invite users who've already chosen to leave GTA Wikia (for example, Bunnyjoke), to Grand Theft Wiki, but aside from that I'd have to think about where I'd draw the line between legitimate promotion and spamming. And again it can't be just my decision. I'll talk to the GTA Wikia staff about it, probably with the community as well. I'll link the Community Split page from the front page of GTA Wikia so that it's easier for new users to see. | |||
:I'm not willing to undo the blocks the Wikia Staff installed, although I'm not going to renew them once they expire. In regards to editing your userpages on GTA Wikia, here's what I can do. There's a way to edit your user page on Wikia Community Central and then have it reflected on other wikia wikis. I personally don't know the code for that, but I know JFletcher/Biggest gta fan ever does because he did it. Then once you've written your page on Community Central, I can link it into your userpage with the code. Alternately, anyone can directly request I copypaste text into their userpage. Of course I'm not going to allow personal attacks on anyone on userpages. Saying that Wikia was disrespectful and only cares about money (among other things) is fair game, so is insulting Oasis (because frankly it deserves it, the second Wikia makes it truly mandatory is the day I jump ship), but I don't want anything negative about any individual person, even indirectly. And I will block spammers, especially the ones who've made hating Wikia and "trying to destroy GTA Wikia" their persona/gimmick. [[User:McJeff|McJeff]] 05:05, 4 September 2011 (BST) | |||
