Yeah, EmeraldPlay seems to be a pretty dedicated (if quite intense) contributor to this wiki. I hope he does a great job at improving it. It's important that you work together to help the wiki. When the wiki was eventually caught up, it did start feeling like more of a de-facto forum board, when you looked at the "Wiki Activity" page. There seems to be so much talking about whatever and the occasianal troll. I can't be upset however, as this is really the expected conclusion for a wiki that doesn't need more info added.

I feel like back when the wiki was but a child, the communication was more important, because larger leaps had to be made. When you made an edit, they would have a larger impact, and especially when things like home page layout and background came into question, you really needed all the important heads of the wiki to come togetther and have a chat. This, I feel, highlighted just how good the community section of wikia can be. We were a group of people who cared about improving the wiki, and respected each other. We would state our opinion, and others would consider and create a response. Nothing was redundant or rude, and best of all, it felt like when I said something, it carried weight. This is the best part of wikia, when we get together, and everyone matters. Nowadays it's more about questions, answers, pieces of fanart, and random comments. Again, for a wikia full of pretty much all available info, to be expected.

Although all that cleared-up space does allow for chats between people on opposite sides of the globe like we're having now. I do genuinely enjoy talking to you like this, and I hope it's the same for you. If only the other editors of days gone by still hung around. Oh well, such is life.

By the way, I was thinking about it, and at the time of writing this, it's almost midnight here, but about 8 AM for you.

I'm sure you'll be a great admin for the remainder of your stay.

P.S. I was browsing YouTube, and the thumbnail for this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTGCGo8doi4) uses the same "Docile Slime" drawing used by this wiki, which was made for the categorization created by me! No real reason for putting this here, but it goes to show the smallest things can have larger effects, which is cool.
