While I'm sure that there are many on my home wiki, Assassin's Creed, who might need some time becoming accustomed to and accepting this migration, I have always been open to it. I understand that this streamlines the process of maintaining the platform due to what you have said about how the old forums was heavily intertwined with custom modifications to MediaWiki, and that it would be wrong of wiki admins to dismiss this. Here's to hoping that this will indeed improve

So far, I actually like the way the merge has been executed for the most part. The option of a condensed view is definitely much appreciated, as is the thought and care the staff had put into this. I am so glad that you guys didn't simply migrate all the posts without accommodating them. I was afraid they would be mixed in and get lost in the existing Discussions posts.

The one major issue I can see at the moment is that categories seem to still be locked at 10 maximum even while a whole slew of new categories have been added from forums, such that we now have over 20 categories. I have to see how we will reorganize the categories as soon as possible without burying the old forum threads since now the categories appear to be duplicated. However, having to be mindful that if I make any mistake in removing a category, I would not be able to correct that mistake, I am very anxious about that 10 category limit. Is there a way we can increase that limit or remove that barrier entirely?
