So, the idea of a "community wiki" was something that was popular at the time I introduced it over a year and a half ago. However, it never got all that much use except by spambots. By the end, there were over 700 users, most of which were spambots, and I discovered tons of links out to adult sites, phishing sites, and more.
I have been fighting a daily battle over the main index page for a few weeks; every morning I'm notified that it has changed, and every morning I'd ban the user that put in the spam, then rollback the change. Only took a few seconds each day, but it was annoying. I only found all the other pages just today; there were dozens of them.
THIS is precisely why the main Arcen Wiki isn't open to public editing, in case anyone is wondering. But for community members that volunteer to help out with the main Arcen Wiki, we do provide accounts if you PM us that you're interested. So far that has worked really well, as that gets at least some community help with the main wiki while at the same time keeping out the incredibly huge amounts of spam we were otherwise seeing.
And meanwhile, of course, most strategy discussion has been happening in the strategy discussion subforum, since people seem more interested in this format rather than the wiki format, anyhow.
Just wanted to let folks know what has happened!
