User blog comment:Dopp/Meet More Wikians with Improved Profiles/@comment-3569803-20110801235055/@comment-1393830-20110802004912

Social networking is inherently bad when you want to focus on content. The hundreds of edits people make to their profiles floods recent changes, making it harder for us to weed out the bad edits. The social networking encourages people to leave messages with their opinions on article talk pages saying how they dont like a character when article talk pages are purely for the discussion of the content of the article. Social networking discourages users from editing actual pages in favor of making a flashy user page. I did not come to wikia to make a cool user page and look at other peoples user pages and talk with people about what I like and what I dont like. I have a facebook account for that. I come to wikia to help in building a comprehensive encyclopedia on my favorite subjects. You may like the social networking, 888th Avatar, but the majority of the experienced users around here do not. We just want Wikia to for once create some tools that help in building content rather than encouraging other things.
