I really do hate to say it, but the wiki is dieing.  The only cure is to get an influx of users, and the only way for that to happen is for a new Pikmin game to be released.  While the thought of Pikmin 3 soon is promising, I am curious if they are doing anything with Pikmin on the 3DS. I mean if it can run Metal Gear Solid 3 it can easily run a Pikmin game.
As for everyone leaving, I think it has to do with losing interest. Remember that most of the potential users here are the 9-13 years old youngins that have a short attention span. We need to have more interesting stuff here to keep their attention. In order to do that, we need more users. And the only way to get them is to have interesting content.
I am extremely guilty of not being active here, and I really do regret that. It was about the time that Volatile Dweevil and Gamefreak left that this started. If only they had stayed, then maybe we would be a better, more active wiki. Oh well, gotta move on and keep looking forward. I'm not going to make a promise about how I will be more active here or something, because we know it's not going to be kept.  However I will at least try to try to be active.{{User:Sir Pikmin/sig}}

I really do hate to say it, but the wiki is dieing. The only cure is to get an influx of users, and the only way for that to happen is for a new Pikmin game to be released. While the thought of Pikmin 3 soon is promising, I am curious if they are doing anything with Pikmin on the 3DS. I mean if it can run Metal Gear Solid 3 it can easily run a Pikmin game.

As for everyone leaving, I think it has to do with losing interest. Remember that most of the potential users here are the 9-13 years old youngins that have a short attention span. We need to have more interesting stuff here to keep their attention. In order to do that, we need more users. And the only way to get them is to have interesting content.

I am extremely guilty of not being active here, and I really do regret that. It was about the time that Volatile Dweevil and Gamefreak left that this started. If only they had stayed, then maybe we would be a better, more active wiki. Oh well, gotta move on and keep looking forward. I'm not going to make a promise about how I will be more active here or something, because we know it's not going to be kept. However I will at least try to try to be active.Sir Pikmin, Sir Pikmin avatar.jpg Your Bold Pikmin Knight! Contributions
