This is also in a "beta" so, it is constantly evolving, just because you do not like it now, does not mean you will not like it in the future. Discussions is better the forums in some ways. It is cleaner, looks advanced and reporting content is easier. I personally think this should be closed as of now, because Fandom is not going to stop making the discussions. They are doing their best to make us happy, we have no idea what the end product will be so if you are not happy now, you might be in the future. Staff always allows you to share your opinion in Special:Contact/feedback it is much more productive than complaining because of what it is now. You would be surprised, they really care about user feedback. All I ask, is for everyone to look at discussions with a clear mind. If you do you will see it is not that bad. It has some flaws but it is, a work in progress. In regards to this, I have a few simple words.

Sure wikia is evolving...

But you don't have to change/fix something that ain't broke. It may not be broke, but it is not getting any better: That was my entire point. Thank you for agreeing with me and completely nullifying your argument. Um, my point was discussions is only gonna get better, and the forums are not. So... I don't see your point. You just said Forums are not broke (referring to my referal of Forums as-is right now), and that they (referring again to my referal of Forums as-is right now) are not getting any better.

Conclusion: you just said Forums are not broken, therefore saying they are clearly the better option instead of Discussions since 90% of the people here are saying they suck entirely.

How can I make that conclusion from the above? Discussions is so limited in what powers you can use to aid yourself, that Forums are [morally and statistically] better, and since you just referred to Forums as not broken, you are therefore setting your base standards to Forums, thereby proving that Discussions are worse due to lack of tools and options. Hence, you just said Discussions are worse. Hence, you just nullified your entire arguement above. I said the forums are not broke. That does not mean they are good, or better that discussions. You are putting words in my mouth. I said, Forums are not broke, meaning that they are unusable. There is a lot of problems with the forums as said above. Discussions is a work in progress meaning it will get better over time. I personally like discussions, it has a better look, you can report things to the moderators, and it works well on mobile. At no point have I said discussions are bad, or that the old forums are better.
