Basically: editors(quasi-slaves), paid wikia staff(maintain the tech stuff), owners(get millions monthly without doing anything.

It's a genius scheme and will never change since fans are oblivious to the fact they are being explored.

The thing is, no one is forcing editors to stay here. We can leave any time we want. Most of us choose to stay, since we are just in this because we're fans of a particular subject.
