I was under the impression that the reason we separated in the first place was to keep the forum spam accompanied with RP down, (right?). Yet there have been a few cases of threads that were basicly RP (like the Mystery-WillyWyvern war,) I feel that if we treated the RP wiki as an extension of this wiki (which it basicly is), and made clear to users that off topic discussions were for that "part" of the wiki a simple link would suffice), than we would cut down forum spam, and support Lotr alumni at the same time. Roleplay is such a narrow topic that I would say it deserves it's own wiki. We have to have some off topic stuff (Like what I'm about to post, check it out in half an hour or so!) so that the community stays alive, but when it was on such a massive scale, where when we were considering making changes to the wiki, and people thought we were talking about RP... I completely support the relocation of RP boards to another wiki, but we can't try to redirect all off-topic discussion.

However, I would agree that we are more than just a LOTR mod handbook. We've got a good community, and that's really what wikia is all about.
