The main issue with the navbar is that it's distracting, not visually appealing, steals the spotlight on darker-themed and smaller wikis, and makes Wikia feel more like "Hey, look at all of Wikia! It's so awesome!" rather than allowing the reader to focus on the wiki they're focusing on at the moment. I really doubt money has anything to do with it. Want a company to point at for actually delighting in both anti-community and money? Look at EA... and maybe my ISP, too. Exactly, it's so big that they're trying to make a profit by getting users to explore more. That's not a bad thing, but the way they enforced that is pretty bad.
