Hey Vault peeps.

After the responses we got to the failed attempt at freedom from tyranny, I'm wondering if we should officially make Monobook our de facto skin, instead of the imminent Oasis skin. It isn't quite as good as Monaco (no recent changes widget! D:) but it's still useable. While we can't make Monobook be the default skin for anonymous users (as far as I know, please prove me wrong...) we could put a mention of it in the welcome message and hopefully get people to be aware of the skin options.

All opposed? Nitty Tok. 20:51, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Very well, it's official! Monobook is now the Vault's skin of choice, so remember to change to Monobook as soon as possible! Nitty Tok. 21:07, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Although I don't like Monobook (and I really need recent changes), but I can't stand Oasis, and come on! The mad preacher warned us about this skin! So the moment that Monaco goes bye-bye I'm swiching to that Monobook.JASPER//"Do you like hurting other people?"UserRichard 20:58, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

How to we get to the new 'My Home' style option on monobook?JASPER//"Do you like hurting other people?"UserRichard 18:13, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

The "WikiActivity" link in the "navigation" menu. Ausir(talk) 18:15, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

WoWWiki has officially moved to WoWpedia.com for anyone interested in the rest of Wikia. The AWA Wikis moving list only seems to grow; One possible issue is that Wikia has taken the ban-hammer to people posting "We've moved" signs, is a notice on the welcome message suggesting a skin change also going to result in the same response?Agent c 18:38, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

"Neutral We shouldn't just be giving up now. Did Manchester United give up when everybody died in a plane crash? Did Taliban give up when US had them outnumbered? Did US give up when China had their economy by the balls? (real life, not Fallout universe) Did Hirohito give up when the first atomic bomb fell? No. So why should we be giving up the fight for Monaco now? Tezzla CannonUser Tezzla Dog 18:45, October 20, 2010 (UTC)"

Uh, because Hirohito gave up when the second atomic bomb fell. They aren't going to listen to us, might as well flip them off with Monobook. Nitty Tok. 03:53, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

Want to make Monobook our official skin?

Yes It's sad that what should be a downgrade is an upgrade to this newfangled trash. --LordDeathkeeper 03:04, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
Yes Although it pains me to say it, this Monobook is our best option.JASPER//"Do you like hurting other people?"UserRichard21:13, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
Yes it works fine, and Ausir made a page that does the same job as My Home. --Kris User Hola
Yes I'm okay with monobook, still miles better than the new thing. Glomulus 03:10, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
No Monobook is terrible. I'd go on, but that first sentence about explains the way I feel about this suggestion. YuriKaslov 03:13, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
Yes if just as a protest against the Vorta skin Agent c 18:07, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

Yes I dont like Monobook much. But we don't have any better option for the moment. At least, the {{[[:Template:Games|Games]]}} works. veryblackravenTalk 18:58, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
Yes monobook is what I'm using now, I took one look at that new'fangled GUI look, and immediately started looking for my preferences button. It is far simpler, and you can actually see all your options plainly non of that extra nonsense, only problem is I don't see a live update feed on who's working on what. I'd like to add, that monobook is an elegant clean and efficient skin, loads easier to understand and doesn't negatively impact the sight in any way, like the old wikipedia's look.Aryeonos 03:49, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes The new skin is horrible, I'd rather have a more bland-looking functioning skin than a "sexier" skin that makes wiki nav hell The14th 08:19, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I'm normally pretty progressive when it comes to website designs but this new skin just isn't doing it for me - I don't like the huge sidebar being on the right and having the actual article squashed to the left. I find it easy enough to use but I'm not crazy about the look; Monobook isn't brilliant either, but I find the design overall simpler and more intuitive.--BADavid 10:55, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I'm crying now... Pteriforever 11:08, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes Time for a mathematical statement. Monobook > Oasis Megaton Settler 18:39, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I think monobook is the way to go.--Roflguy227 21:42, October 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes This new layout makes my eyes angry, and they shouldn't feel emotions.Apocalyptic Anomoly 01:53, October 22, 2010 (UTC)
Yes Absolutely... while MonoBook is fairly primitive compared to Monaco, it is LEAGUES better than this horrible new shit. The fixed width is easily the worst thing about the new layout - followed by the removal of the sidebar. At least MonoBook solves those two issues. Xizer 03:34, October 22, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I'm not a huge fan of monobook, but the new style is a broken mess. Mike | Contrib 12:06, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
Yes Monobook is much better than the new one. Benvardboy
Yes Monobook is good, but Oasis is just.. bad. SilverCrono 19:01, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I like the feeling of flipping off someone :D. Nukey (talk)
Yes Seriously? How is the new look in any way superior to MonoBook? It's pathetic, exactly. Lordoflsleepy
Yes I loved Monaco as much as I despise Oasis. So if that's the way it's going to be, I'll vouch for Monobook. Papapudding 05:23, October 25, 2010 (UTC)
No I hate it but if some people like it then just give peeps a choice User:GamerAddict7796
Yes I really dislike Oasis and Monobook looks much better, with the amount of tables this Wiki has it really needs something wider. User:CorneliousJD
Yes i don't even want to bother trying to figure out the layout of oasis, hell im still finding out things about monobook, people like this look why bother ruining it? Toolazytomakeaaccount 10:53, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
