Discussuins are ok but sometimes its hard to find what you need and comments would be good for ppl who seek answer for related to topic questions.

That would also improve main site as you irst read skill description than few explanations to big questions.

Just a matter of naming and checking for spam from time to time. Also upvting and downvoting would help AFAIK we don't have any say or control in how the comment system works, that's a wikia feature that works as-is for all wiki's on the wikia network. The issue with moderating comments is that there are just so many pages and such an overflow of incoming comments on practically all of them. For instance, I delete free RP spam whenever I come across it, and I delete that particular user's spam posts on other pages, but I can't automatically know every page that hase free RP spam on it and not all of it will be deleted unless it's actually seen.

We can set in place as many policies we can come up with, most (if not all) of them will not even be aknowledged. It's hard enough to get registered users to follow naming policies for uploading files or to get them to categorize their images or new pages. Considering comments are the domain of the anon, nothing we will do will get them to stop posting "OPOPOP NERF NERF", "X and Y champion are gay" or "Nerfed to oblivion, RIP".

Well maybe some upvote/downvote system then? Or automatic deletion of ANY post with link attached. Dont know the mechanics but i think this is programmable? Or maybe limit ppl to 1 coment per hour depending on how long they are here or hom many post thaet posted so far? I just give idea, just tell me if its possible. I,m no programmer sadly :P
