This Wiki though it is for TES stuff, is overall about being a fun place for fans, not to be some factory of edits where no fun is allowed. I mean most of us are on here in our free time to try and be around TES fans and have fun if we wanted to just do mineal tasks without any sort of socializing we could do something else. This Wiki should be treated as a community of TES, and our shared enjoyment of the series, that is what Wikia is supposed to be about! Not being some Business only motivated by Contribution counts, you know? Not to be insulting, but how is just making some "general" best practice guidelines on how to use a userpage "authoritarianism"? I don't like how you use really harsh words to make things sound much worse than they really are. Policies are not the law on a wiki, they're only a guideline on how things "should" be done and they're not the "be all and end all" of a wiki.

Yes, this is a community, but it should not become a social network just because "Wikia" wants it to. Yeah we have forums, blogs and chat, but the userpages are mainly part of the mainspace and they should NOT turn into socialism either. Did you even read the links I posted that simply reinforces my points about what the userpages should be used for? Evidently not.
