I mean, if you're ever gonna use that blog, chances are that you're gonna use it for in-game or in-wiki purposes. But everyone's flouted the rule - almost everyone I know.

Yeah, we really don't need blogs here.  I don't mind being friendly with my fellow editors, but this is not the place to express your personal lives.  The blogs take away from the main goal of the wiki, and just cause unnecessary drama.  You should be here to improve the wiki, this isn't Myspace/Facebook.

:Hi all -- just received a request via [[Special:Contact]] to turn this off.  I'm happy to carry that out, just wanted to let you know first that the Blog namespace will be removed, making any content there inaccessible.  If there's ''any'' content there you'd like to keep, you'll need to move/copy it into another namespace first.  Can you please let me know if you need more time to save anything there, or if you're ready to have this shut down?  Thanks! — [[User:CatherineMunro|Catherine]]<staff/> <small>([[User talk:CatherineMunro|talk]])</small> 00:55, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
::Well, it all sounds good. I've pinged GS to add this to site notice, so that nobody will be saying anything along the lines of "Every thing I wrote is gone!" or "All of my work, lost!" Let's have the actual removal in one to three days, so that Users have time to copy/paste their blogs' contents. Sound good? --[[User:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:navy ;">'''Door'''</span>]][[User:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:dimgray ;">'''To'''</span>]][[User talk:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:darkslategray ;">'''Nothing'''</span>]] 01:36, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
That'll work. I would never posted ''it'' if I knew it would you guys would actually read it.--[[User:NinjaSheik|NinjaSheik]] 02:06, October 7, 2009 (UTC)

::Just let Catherine know when you've saved any content that you want to keep. I think the concern is that people have written blogs and comments and that will disappear without people realising that in advance. If you have resolved that, you can leave a message on [[user talk:CatherineMunro]] or, better, use [[special:contact]].

Hmph. They can do whatever they want...--{{User:NinjaSheik/Sig}} 22:17, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
:And that is supposed to mean... what? If you're being apathetic about the topic why not just ignore it instead of saying ' Hmph. They can do whatever they want?' that really adds nothing to the problem >.>  as for removal, I'll try pinging someone, after all we've given users enough time to save their stuff, like DTN said. --{{User:Yer mom/Sig}} 23:23, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
Should we really be bothering them? Maybe they're busy. Or maybe they decided to keep the blogs. Like I said before, they could do whatever they want.--{{User:NinjaSheik/Sig}} 23:27, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
:1) Yes, we can bother them. One of the staff members put up a link to this Catherine person's talk page; 2) We were pretty unanimous about taking them off. --[[User:Super Sword-chucks|<span style="color:#7EB6FF;">'''光に、'''</span>]][[User talk:Super Sword-chucks|<span style="color:#2F2F4F;">'''闇に、'''</span>]][[User:Super Sword-chucks/Userpage+|<span style="color:#7D7F94;">'''虚無。'''</span>]] 23:30, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
All right. Do as you please.--{{User:NinjaSheik/Sig}} 23:31, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
:Well they are obviously busy, as their job is to take care of the wikis, and that job includes this wiki. If they are against taking out the blogs then why would they offer it as an option to beging with. Again, sorr if this sounds rude but if you have nothing useful to say, don't say anything at all. BTW, I've pinged central wiki. EDIT CONFLICTED XD --{{User:Yer mom/Sig}} 23:33, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
Just got a mail from central wikia, blogs have been removed yay~ --{{User:Yer mom/Sig}} 16:56, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
