Oh, and, you know, the archives. I've been told by Wikia Staff that they are working on adding more functionality to the Discussions, but they have yet to actually do so—software development is a slow process. That said, I'm still of the opinion that they should finish a product before releasing it.

Wikia is definitely going to be careful not to remove/lose any old Forum content. Old posts will either get put into an archive somewhere or be integrated into Discussions alongside new ones. Excellent. Wikia and Bethesda almost have a bit of a parallel going on. Both are trying desperately to appeal to a wider demographic at the cost of what earned them their original fans. Funny, isn't it?
