The best we can do is attempt to convince Wikia to improve discussions. So far we have the following problems with them:

-No notifications

-No wikitext

-No integration

-Does not show up in recent wiki activity

-Poor organization

-Style can be confusing

-Poor compatibility: cannot highlight or copy on tablet

-Look clashes with the look of basically every wiki except community central

-JavaScript nor CSS are functional

-Setup makes it infuriating to moderate: though we haven't gotten large enough discussions for this problem to become evident yet, dicussions show up by which are the most popular instead of which had the most recent activity, making it incredibly difficult to find individual threads if many were posted in one day

If we can find a way to get our complaints known to Wikia, it might get stuff fixed, but until then I vote to stick with the forums and mothball the discussions until/unless they improve significantly.
