@Seb While I respect the fact that you’re just giving your honest opinions regarding this issue, I personally believe that the fact that users have to have a registered wiki account and have to contribute to the wiki at least 50 times before joining the server should put off the vast majority of trolls from wanting to join it since most trolls probably wouldn’t be bothered to contribute on this wiki that many times just so that they could go on the server and troll on it for a bit.

Even if some trolls did manage to come on Ghost has informed me that the wiki’s private Discord server currently has 10 moderators so, if the wiki’s server was made public again the fact we would have said amount of moderators monitoring it would mean that it would be very likely that at least one of said moderators would be online to deal with any trolls that may come on and try and cause trouble, especially if the server proved to be particularly popular.

In regards to your argument about the 50 edit requirement, while I did previously think about raising said requirement to be around 100 or even 200 edits, I thought 50 edits would be the best number to go with since raising it any higher would likely put off a lot of new users from joining the server which in turn could lead to the wiki getting a lot less committed contributors over the coming months and years which wouldn’t be good for the site. However, if it does turn out that new users contribute to the wiki just so that they can join the server and end up hardly ever contributing to the site again then me and Ghost will consider raising the edit count to try and prevent this issue from happening.
