User blog:Windsword7/And so it begins

As I'm sure many of you have seen. Drastic changes have been undertaken on the wiki in this past week. From the departure of Head.Boy.Hog and the ended use of Xat to the suspension of money pouches and the creation of chat bubbles, we are definitely seeing a different wiki then the one we saw a week ago. Naturally there is some apprehension about this sudden change, and fear about what this sudden change will mean for the users. I want to assure all the users on this wiki that these changes are for the better and will make roleplaying on this wiki a much more enjoyable experience. I also want to adress the fear that members of our affiliate wiki The Camp Half-Blood have taken over this wiki. There is no truth to that rumor whatsoever. These members were asked by this wiki's administration to lend a hand with reform because of their knowledge in how roleplay wikis work best and because they were once active users on this wiki before it started falling apart. I would like to call attention to the fact that the number of users on the wiki has been steadily increasing since the reform process began which is a telling sign that the changes are working. I would like to ask all users regardless of what authority they have to stay active in the process. If you are in a certain department stay active in making sure it is run smoothly. If you are working in a shop make sure the requests are done quickly so they don't stack up. Any small thing you can do to keep the wiki running smoothly makes a big difference and will make the roleplay experience more enjoyable for everyone. Thank you for reading.
