I've been really busy lately, but I cannot just sit idly by and let this abomination slide. I've commented on the page. Here is what I said -

"No. This cannot be allowed to happen. Wikia has been trying to push through a lot of unpopular changes of late, in what seems to me to be a ridiculous attempt to emulate Facebook. The New Look, another such attempt, was an eyesore and an atrocious piece of clunky, stylized junk, and was pushed through anyway amid great disapproval by Wikia users. Learn your lesson, Wikia. Facebook is Facebook, and wikis are wikis, and nobody wants the two of them blended. This user page revamp is foolish and unnecessary, and will serve only to anger your community and cause more wikis to leave Wikia. In conclusion, as I have said before on Mass Effect Wiki, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." "

If this thing is passed, I may join Havoc in the call to leave Wikia. It would prove to me a lack of any sort of care for their community. Just as it was with the American Revolution, "It's the principle of the thing." It isn't so much their changing of the system, it's their complete disregard for their community's wished that really grinds my gears. Change is good, but not when opposed so vehemently by the people. Wikia should listen, and learn their lesson, or there will have to be consequences of some sort.
