Oh and I'm getting it on Chrome all the time. I would actually be against this. True, we are a massive wiki here on Wikia, and have a great community and a lot of content going up all the time, but so do a lot of other wikis. Where would you draw the line?

Warframe is up there in the WAM scoring right now, but a few months ago, so was GTA Wiki (with the release of GTA 5). They change all the time. (We've been lucky in that we've had Skyrim, then Skyrim DLC ... then Skyrim DLC for Playstation 3, and also Elder Scrolls Online updates. Theres a lot of interest in our series - thats all it really comes down to. In the lull between Oblivion and Skyrim... well, we werent that big. They didnt have WAM back then - but lets just say that there was about 500-600 pages in total, and there was one or two editors at most.

In short - we want to stay part of Wikia. And dedicated servers for the really big wikis would add costs that would mean that other services would not be available. (Such as BertH's Darwin project).

(P.s. thank you for the update, BertH! Its good to know that you are helping us once more :)
