Archive:DEAL or NO DEAL?

News and Announcements

FANDOM staff are now letting us to stay again, however, should we take the offer? Lawiki1534 (talk) 19:09, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

This is hard to answer, is that resolving with Sysops and the most active users, I can't consider myself an active Sysop because it's not everyday.

But in order to accept their offer, they will have to delete everything from Shock Site, content that is sexually insensitive (even if it's a Screamer) and a few more things. Will you accept their conditions? Dragomaniaco (talk) 19:27, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

Yeah I don't know; on one hand I can decline the conditions and move wikis, as Wikia has never been kind (to the point of banning users) to wikis that wanted to leave the platform normally, however, moving would tempoarily drop our traffic tremendously.

Just what ever happens, I don't want a bad deal.

The staff's decision to close down the wiki has been unjustified from the start, and it made them show their true colors. So whatever happens, we should definitely continue what we are doing on this website, if nothing else just to hedge against any similar decisions in the future. That being said, if there is a chance to preserve some of our work on the old wiki, I believe we're better off taking it. There really isn't much to lose, and it gives our work greater exposure.

Good idea Rogue Harrier, let's continue with the project right here, but let's not let these "tie capitalists" close down at Fandom, so let's honorably delete anything they have from Shock and other things they consider "illegal", but disable edits to the Site, to that becomes a kind of historical archive, to preserve what is left in the original, that would be the conversations in the forums, until that decision of wanting to close there without giving a fixed justification, like "these contents in links the pages to the site is one of violation examples ".

Yes, let's save what can be saved on the old site, while continuing to work on the new one until we have promoted and polished it up enough to enable it to effectively become the new "main site". I believe that is our best bet at the moment. Not much else we can do. RogueHarrier (talk) 00:14, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
