That's true, thanks to the shoutbox, the users of Grand Theft Encyclopedia warn us of vandalism, resolve doubts, suggest changes to the wiki. Our work has made us so much easier thanks to the shoutbox. If Wikia wants to have a more social aspect, you already have a proof to keep shoutbox.

The only problem with the shoutbox it's like Kirkland22 said: "May not be used very much on most wikis is because nobody knows where to find it".

You could even add it to the floating bar and see if the shoutbox has more use than now.
