Well, yes and no.

If you and I left, it would just be a drop in the ocean and no-one would notice.

If everyone who is active on Community Central left, Wikia Staff would take the day off and have a party, but there are still many thousands of editors all over Wikia who have never been to Community Central, and millions of readers who have never edited, so I doubt it would make much of a difference in the long run.

I don't know what the rollover of new users is, but the prominent search engine results for many subjects will ensure that new people will continue to find Wikia even after they drive all of the current users away.

Years ago, before I joined, there were 2 completely different skin changes, and when they introduced Oasis (the current skin), many people left, and many wikis forked, but some of those forked wikis are still amongst the largest and most active on Wikia, even though so many people left.

I joined after Oasis was already here, and didn't mind it. I don't know what my opinion would have been if I had been here before it was introduced. There will be people who join after Venus is permanent who won't see anything wrong with it.

So... history has already proven that it doesn't really matter how many people hate the changes and leave.

Kinda sucks, but that's how it is.

(BTW, please don't take this the wrong way, do I agree with most of what you said!)
