Did I say you did? I never said you did nor did I even imply it was you nor did I even I imply this was towards you. But then again if you are addressing this I can only assume this is a fear or concern. Probably not but you never know with people around here nowadays.
 * 1) Never mentioned a fear of criticism anywhere… but k

Evidently you completely skimmed this section or did not even read it.
 * 1) It's not solely up to the administrators to expand the wiki; that requires cooperation from everybody. It takes wiki-wide motivation, not a group of users with extra buttons saying "You will enjoy and expand dis place and you will liek it >:c"

"We are not taking moves and the administration simply can not say or use the excuse "well then why dont you guys make a request" when there are still so many unfinished SSC requests."

There is cooperation amongst the community... if you leave out the majority of this administration. There are a few requests still on going for change and even some im writing at the moment that will most likely, continue to be active for a matter of time.

It does seem silly to me. Thats why I never said it nor implied it. It seems to me you did not read it well.... this is not just taking into account the one of many votes... but the many votes so far and the many votes to come.... Nor am I attempting to scare but rather inform you of how much time wasting there will be just so theres less of it in the future. I dont think you read what I wrote thourghly.
 * 1) I have no doubt that Gio and Bawb will eventually make the admin team, but trying to scare us with "you'll be replaced" part for simply wanting the right to be neutral seems silly to me.

We have been. I especially have been. I don't know why you are all ":3" either, as this is a serious matter. My friend we have been for a while trying to get the admins and staffers to move and progress this site to do something than just do nothing about our current status. We are constantly discussing in chat, in other votes... It is as if we need to make a blog with big letters and bolded with italics along with underlined formats in order for them to take notice we want something done and what that is that would ever be so best for here.
 * 1) "Other matters" have no relevance here. Still, if you think we're not trying to do what's best, perhaps you could tell us what is best for this place. :3

We can no longer play the "We are an encyclopedic site" game when many of the decent sized not even top but decent and over our heads wikis are being competitive themselves. We can not any longer be the site that sticks to the "traditional ways", as that is not working. The only reason it has not been working before is we were attempting to compete with a site that is not even close to being comparable with us and a whole different animal.
 * 1) Why, why, why is everyone so obsessed with this whole competition mindset? We're an online encyclopedia, and you're talking about competing with others


 * 1) You brought it up as one of your points, so it interested me. :3
 * 2) I'm going through the SSC as we speak… so far, this is the only one I can find that is still pending. Link? ._.
 * 3) i red dat so thoroughly my hed spinned. In all seriousness, that's just how it seemed when you just randomly brought it up.
 * 4) See #2
 * 5) I guess I can't really change the way you think about that. But, as I said, we're an encyclopedia on the internet; no need to treat it like a business. If users like writing fanon for POTC, then they'll come; "competing" with other wikis (don't know how you plan to do that… all I can think of is getting another spotlight) isn't going to bring more users here, user interest will.
