But you will have an up-to-date email address on your wikia account so people can contact you without them being able to see it.

If that is too much to ask then maybe having the ability to add or remove users' rights to edit or chat is too much for you. It has nothing to do with how easy or hard it is. It has to do with the fact that said thing is almost completely pointless when there are already a variety of other ways to contact staff members off-site. I have no issue with publically showing my email. Not to mention, keep in mind that most of the people with extra rights here have edits and profiles on other wikis.

There's a variety of other factors as well. I can easily be contacted from any of the other wikis listed on my masthead.
