Well, your words not mine. But do keep in mind that is is not chat nor do staff incessantly refresh the page looking for a new posts. In fact, they come around rather infrequently because they are busy trying to make improvements to various features Wikia offers. Depending on how many other users are logged on at the time, you may get a reply within minutes or it may take as long as a few days; it varies. That being said...

Have you read Help:Adopting_a_community? It is a bit outdated due to the recent introduction of wiki managers and content teams (see here). However, the general procedure is the same. The only major difference between now and when that help page was last updated is that the main adoption page contains links to category-specific adoption pages.
