Grand Theft Wiki:Move from Wikia

What has happened
怎么回事？

The Grand Theft Wiki community has decided to move away from the Wikia network of sites.
GTW社区已经决定搬出Wikia网络。

To do this, we copied all our content, and set up a new site. Unfortunately, Wikia will not close the old site, because they make money from the adverts, and they will leave it open. Please ensure everyone uses this site instead.
我们复制了原站点所有的内容，并且建立了新的网站。很不幸地是，Wikia不愿意关闭网站的旧址，因为他们想继续开着网站靠广告赚钱。请告知所有人使用我们网站的新址。

Why move?
为什么要离开？

Wikia is a for-profit company, and they put money first. This means that they regularly alter the wiki to make more money on adverts. Over the years, they have added more and more adverts, including putting them inside the content area.
Wikia是一个以盈利为目的的公司，他们把金钱摆在第一位。这意味着他们经常要改变维基站点的板式以便赚取更多的广告收入。这些年来，他们投放了越来越多的广告，甚至把广告塞进了正文区。

One big change was the introduction of a new skin (Oasis) which reduced the size of the content area, was very difficult to use, loaded slower, and added a lot of unwanted features. The new rules at Wikia forbid us from altering the design of the wiki in any way except its colour. Despite thousands of users openly expressing their dissatisfaction with this skin, Wikia ignored them and are making it mandatory, removing the option to use the old design.
最近一个重大的改变就是新皮肤（绿洲）的引入，这套皮肤缩减了正文区的大小，非常难以使用，使网页加载速度变慢，并且加入了大量我们不想要的内容。并且Wikia的新规定禁止我们改变除了颜色以外的一切板式设置。尽管数以千计的用户公开表达了对新皮肤的不满，Wikia无视他们的抗议并且移除了使用旧板式的选项，强迫我们采用新板式。

It was this disrespect to the community, putting money above everything else, and forgetting why we were there, that made Grand Theft Wiki decide to leave Wikia.
正是这种对我们社区的不尊重，这种视金钱高于一切的态度，以及无视我们加入的目的和感受的做法，促使GTW决定搬出GTW。

How can I help?

As we have moved away from Wikia, we now have to pay for our own server. You will notice that we have not filled this site with adverts to pay for it. There are only two adverts (in the sidebar and footer), which don't interfere with or distract from the content.

If you want to help with content, there are a lot of tasks that still need doing. Feel free to help out, even if you're new here!
I can't log in!

User accounts have not been copied from Wikia. However, all your edit history is still here! Just click here and follow the instructions to register a new account, and what to do if someone else has already taken your username.

Some of my edits have disappeared

We copied over all content, dating from around 4th October 2010. Any edits made since then have not been copied over, but our staff can do that quickly for you. Just leave us a message in /issues

As for images, unfortunately some of them have not copied over. Leave us a message on /issues if you notice any important ones missing.

What about the old site at Wikia?
旧址怎么办？

Wikia are trying to keep the old site open, even though the community has moved. This is so that they can continue to make money through advertising.
尽管社区已经搬出，Wikia想让旧址一直开下去。他们是为了继续赚取广告收入。

Wikia have actually blocked Grand Theft Wiki's administrators from the site because of this. This proves they don't care about the community or the content, they just want to make money.
正因为如此，Wikia已经封禁了我站所有管理员的账号，这暴露了他们毫不关心社区和维基内容，而只想赚钱的心态。

Dan Houser, Vice President of Rockstar Games and the writer of most GTA games, has said Grand Theft Wiki is "amazing and we love it" in an interview with Gamasutra. In the interview, he says the team at Rockstar often check this wiki for bits of obscure information, characters and details from previous games.
