Enabling this now would be better than suddenly losing forums and having to move on. Because this is gonna happen anyways, it's best that we might as well just enable it so that we can start getting used to it. I am not going to force myself or anyone to a change. The replacement is yet to come and with no doubt, it will come to be something no wiki will be able to escape. We cannot simply change it because our people are reckoned to get used to the new design whether they like it or not, and neither are we asking for the switch if a noteworthy amount of the community are against it or have doubts about the feature. I understand that approving the feature would make people acclimate themselves to an imminent and unavoidable change, but it is now warned that we may have a forced switch sooner or later.

Now that I have cleared it up for you, I will now give an input.

I am pretty satisfied with some of the features within Discussions and one of them is that the edit count will not grow nor shrink while in use. I have always thought that Wikia should remove forum posts from user's edit counts. I also see that Discussion Moderators will finally be capable of operating the way the are meant to, as I resented the fact they held nearly the same powers as us "top" ranked administrators at every corner of this wiki. Now, onto a faltering side, I absolutely abhor blocked users being allowed to post and dispute over a "free" corner of the wiki; I do not hold too much animosity on the impediment to edit your own edit because it is really silly for the moments and something we should not be worried about if the feature is not yet enabled. The current features or the lack thereof are going to be adjusted and improved with time, but right now I do not think we earnestly need the switch.

I think that dissenting because it is a copy-paste of Twitter or any other social media is a mediocre argument. People, be logical in your judgments.
