It is abandoning any hope of even a meager return to anything resembling activity on the wiki, and to regard it as some sort of middle-ground is to misunderstand both sides of the argument. You've had the opportunity of having two years to bring anything remotely resembling the activity we had back to the wiki with TLOPO, yet you refused to do any community outreach of ANY kind. It's surprising considering how "vast" you guys claim your target audience is that you haven't managed to bring in anything. Don't start getting fidgety because you can't accept that you're one of the reasons we're at this point. Sorry, mate, but for all intents and purposes, this is a compromise that you have forced us to make. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm having trouble understanding your reasoning. I have not made any claims of this wiki having a vast audience, nor have I done anything other than state my point and vote accordingly. I'm also curious as to what this proposal is meant to be a compromise between. It would simply be giving one side precisely what it wants at the expense of wiki activity.

Disregarding everything concerning supposed failed opportunities for outreach, it may not be obvious to you, but being in chat and in close relative proximity to wiki activity does inspire people to contribute. If we were to move to Discord, it would simply become a chat hub for the community and the final nail in the coffin for activity would be placed. No, titling the channel "Gamers Fanon Wiki" is not a solution. I don't see why people who want to chat on Discord don't just use mokad and leave chat be.
