A rant is a rant, and a user wouldn't spend their time going "Hey, Ok, I'll post it here, and hope it gets uploaded to CP! After all, I can wait the several possible weeks for someone to like my story, and then a dozen hundred more to vote it in!"

No. They're going to rant, then abandon the site. On top of that, if you're going to do this kind of thing, I think it would be appropriate to apply it to the entire network. And I'm not about to abandon the concept of OC at Spinpasta.

The simple fact is, it's not necessary, and users already don't understand half of the protocol we have here. They aren't about to do something like this by any stretch of the imagination.

Not to mention there wouldn't be a use for half the admins we have here. Which, in terms of activity, is around 6 or less. The fact is, doing this kind of thing, yes, would cause more work for the administrators in the transition, then having them sit around and do nothing. That is, if they don't leave during the transition because the wiki becomes  more  stressful and  less  fun, with the overall future being boring.

But, again, it's not just about the stress on the administrators. It's the stress on the users in general. So, still,. You bring up good points, but I still am holding my ground, and I hope it works s planned if this passes. Lets agree to disagree, and see what other users vote. as per Callie
