:I contacted the admins of destinypedia.wikia.com and only got a response from one of them, which was not positive. So I wouldn't count on anything happening there. I haven't talked to destiny.wikia.com, but anyone here certainly could. Our goal is to be the independent alternative to the Wikia sites just like Halopedia is to Halo Nation. I'm guessing Wikia will always have at least one Destiny site. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 15:54, 18 February 2013 (EST) | :I contacted the admins of destinypedia.wikia.com and only got a response from one of them, which was not positive.

:::I don't want to post the private message, but I'll summarize. I offered to make them admins here in order to consolidate wikis so there's only one Destinypedia, and I was told that the offer "sucks" and I'm exploiting community members. From there I just moved forward, no longer really concerned about them. I figured owning "destinypedia.com" gave us enough clout to use the name. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 16:08, 18 February 2013 (EST) | |||

::::I don't know that this admin spoke for the entire wiki, but he basically accused me of trying to use ''them'' to build ''my'' wiki while I sat back and reaped big advertising money. To be fair, Halopedia has ads, but really to cover hosting expenses and the like. I responded that we're just trying to build this independent wiki and make peace on the name, but no response back. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 16:26, 18 February 2013 (EST) | |||
::::It's also worth noting that there's just a small hint of irony in choosing [http://i.imgur.com/WEfPrdR.jpg Wikia's record] over [http://i.imgur.com/qyK783R.png our record] on the grounds of exploitation through advertisements. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 16:59, 18 February 2013 (EST) | |||

So, conflict in community relations not avoidable? Oh well. Let them two fight against each other then. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 02:27, 19 February 2013 (EST) | |||
