Why we left

this is a very rough draft

Why we left, and why you should too
We the undersigned former wikia editors, would like to explain to those who remained why we left, and why you should too.

On the forums about this new skin, the vast majority of editors expressed their opposition to this new skin. [links] The staff ignored these concerns, making small incremental changes or ignoring the concerns all together.
 * Why we left

The staff attempted to give World of Warcraft, a site which produces a larger amount of revenue for wikia, certain exemptions from the skin, including a larger edit screen.[link] World of Warcraft left anyway. Other smaller wikias asked for the same exceptions, in formal letters to the staff, and messages on staff's talk pages, and they were all ignored.[links]


 * Why you should leave too

Wikia is not the last skin, as one editor wrote in the forum, it seems like every two years wikia will be coming out with a new skin. That means just as you are getting used to this skin and have formatted your site the way you want it, wikia will create a new one. Once again, ignoring editor input.

If you are not a large wikia like World of Warcraft, you have no influence over the future changes on wikia. And even the large wikias will only be given token changes in the next skin.

(include?) The staff has begun purging wikias whose members left wikia, taking away their admin and bureaucrat rights. [examples]
