This is very similar to what I had propossed to you guys before, but there is a problem.
- We can't redirect a Wikia site to the Infosphere. Wikia will not let us, and the only way to do this would be for you guys to come to us.
Considering that you guys joining us would be free and easier (you wouldn't need to ask for donation), and I have found that Quantcast has statistics showing we gain more readers than you guys do, I highly recommend you re-consider my proposal earlier this year. Thanks. Joeyaa 01:37, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
