I personally like the new look for the most part. The bits I don't like is that darn side bar. I don't really care the reasoning...it's just a bad idea. If viewers don't want ads...log in and set your account to not see them. :-/ My biggest complaint though...is the fact that EVERY MEMBER is saying "You're making a mistake! This is a bad idea! STOP IT!". How do the Wikia staff respond? By ignoring the members and pretending they're our mommies and daddies who know better. :-/

I love Wikia, but you guys are losing people. A lot of people. A lot of long-standing people whose wikias are some of the more popular. You're pushing your own members away. In no way can you honestly site there and give a reasonable explanation for how the appearance & less work on you guys (who are paid to do this work) is smarter and better for the community than what WE THE MEMBERS (whom without, you'd have NOTHING) are telling you.

On my own personal level...I'm here no matter what. But that's just me. Not everyone will and you guys need to stop and think what is more important. Your delusional ideas and lazy attitude...or your members.
