every user was notified, but that doesn't account for the amount of people who also contribute without registering... I'm not registered and the dozen or so people I've played with aren't either. There is no need hence we don't.

The fact it is open source yet decisions are not decided as such is a bit frustrating. Unless you were a registered member your input was not at all valued or even considered in the decision making process.

Many corrections and edits were made by anonymous users. Isn't that how this site grew?

to shining: if 60% of the comments were spam then 40% of the comments provided information that has been forever deleted.

I am not a fan of the forums, but my main concern with all of this is that the information from comments has been lost which is just wrong. You want an example? go to the reactor page, pull up the comments and notice how the examples given are better and more affordable than that of the guide for actual layouts.

I understand you're going to do what you want because you control the wiki, but I wanted to voice my opinion.

As far as understanding how the forums work? all it does is link you to a message board and half the time you can't even see the comments of a post. I am sure there will be kinks to work out, but the people who have taken control of the site should find a way to include the information that has been given to each item.

On a side note I would be thrilled about the forums if each link from each item page brought you to it's own dedicated thread for discussion. That would make it as organized and personal as comments. Which would also make one more click a viable argument because as it stands now it isn't just 1 more click
