I got a wikia account after roleplays had been separated from this wiki, and it was sheer luck that I found the roleplay wiki at all. I actually found it in an offhand comment and then searched through old threads to find the link.

Cut to today and I am an extremely active member of the roleplay wiki, and barely ever here. I'm extremely happy I found the place, and have even expanded on to other wikis because of it.

I guess my point is that, like Shade said, this isn't an extreme measure. Without this link the roleplay wiki will be cut off and die slowly. It isn't even the first link when you search middle earth roleplay wiki. I believe Morgoth the First Dark Lord was the last new member that stuck with the community. His first contribution was over a year ago. An effort to revitalize the wiki recently has brought new people, but without a link I feel that stream will die soon.

In the end it pretty much doesn't affect the people here and it could do a lot of good for a dying wiki. Hat's my take on it.
