As far as I was aware, a user can only adopt a wikia under specific and strict circumstances, the most important namely being that there is no active admin found on the wikia. Why is it then, that when a user went behind an active admin's back to request beauracrat status (even openly saying that there is an active admin there who just ignores their requests for crat rights), wikia just gladly signed the rights over to them instead of passing it along to the active admin??
