You say that it belongs on walls, agreed, but that is very limiting if you are fighting a serious ilness. Remember that this game and this wiki has attracted these members (yes, due to the game, but now due to members who are openly using this platform as a form of relief). Please try to understand that there was nothing wrong with the original concept except that it didn't get much traction and it was limited in scope. I have merely suggested that this might be a good place for use as a safe haven for more serious thoughts then are felt to be comfortable in a place for mindless chatter. - El Mainframe - most everything that you have said hear (clarification needed on the statement - "Please try to understand that there was nothing wrong with the original concept except that it didn't get much traction and it was limited in scope.") I agree with you in theory, but as I have mentioned before, the Wiki "was" about the game. It was for seeking help with playing the game, which included troubleshooting the game. It was for seeking in-game friends. Ultimately, some of the in-game friends and Wiki friends became "off-line" friends due to like-mindedness. But the Wiki stayed true to it origins for awhile. When the Wiki begun to veer off, it was recognized that there needed to be a place where the members can just go and have fun. It was also recognized that the decision to do so was going to be a slippery slope, and the creation of the Mindless Chatter board was done with trepidation. And here we are today, sliding down that slippery slope of the Wiki turning into a social media hub.

Please allow me to make this perfectly clear. If the community votes that it shall be, then so shall it be. My intent has always been to preserve the Wiki for what it was for, a gaming medium.
