On Xairu's server, we'd be able to upload the songs to the wiki instead of to RapidShare, and there'd be no need for off-site file linking either.
It would also get rid of the default Wikia sidebar stuff, and there would be no more google ads or wikia spotlight things.
Plus, we won't have the TheAudioSurfer-being-the-only-admin problem anymore. What if Wikia doesn't want to make any of us admins, and just leave Audiosurf wiki adminless?

I think it's a good idea. Still, if laserrobotics disagrees, then we'll stay with wikia.
You sure you want to stay with wikia, laserrobotics?

after seeing those reasons to leave, i would be perfectly fine with going with you guys.  carry on.
but xairu, is this going to be free for you? or is it going to cost you money?

I recall him saying it was like ~$8/month for hosting. But he already had the hosting setup for his own purposes and that he rarely used it for anything and was looking for an excuse to put something on there. The wiki was a perfect fit

Hm. I think I may need to be an admin to be able to import pages. Xairu?

Full wiki to be imported: http://rapidshare.com/files/105654006/Audiosurf_Wiki-20080407190433.xml.html

Also, I'd like to request adminship for Laserrobotics and myself (VDZx). Laserrobotics; I assume the Laserrobotics on the new wiki is you, and not someone who stole your name?

Ah, don't manually copy. Everything will be overwritten when the stuff gets imported.
Anyways, I'm going to sleep now. There's some import page (probably at special pages) for admins only. Load the xml file in there, and the entire wiki gets copied over.

Okay, I was at school. :P Glad to see you guys put everything on there ^_^ I'll get busy at making a logo or finding a new theme or something.. Laserrobtics, you should join the IRC channel so we dont have to spam this topic up.

I've made VDZ, LR, and Pwn all sysops, so you are free to edit it at your will. =)


Add me, PSN: Xairu
GTAIV! yo

There. I imported all images, talk pages, templates, and revision histories...because SOMEONE had to already move the pages themselves >.>
Anyways, I'll be going to school now. I'll probably upload the music when I get back.
