I want to let you guys voice your opinion on an already-existing rule; the Anti-Advertisement Rule. In a nutshell, this rule explicitly forbids the "advertisement" (or the linking to) other wikis and their respective chats. The backcround is simple; it was a rule put into effect soon after the Nightmare Brawl Wiki invasion back in August, which was a humiliating situation for the site. For those of you who don't know, Wiki Staff had to get involved when a group of unnamed users from this wiki invaded another wiki's chat (this wiki being the Nightmare Brawl Wiki, one founded by an now-inactive user). Staff even went so far as to globally ban some of our users for an infinite amount of time, though most of these bans have since been lifted. This was essentially the final nail in the coffin seeing as there had been invasions against other wikis in the past, however the number of these instances is a small one. Regardless, the Nightmare Brawl affair prompted the creation of the rule prohibiting the linking to other wikis and their chats.
