Hello User new and old, my name is SS3Tre. After coming back and seeing the wiki in it's dead state yet again, I've come to the decision of adopting it. I know the edits I was making a few weeks back didn't go unnoticed by former users, and that's perfectly fine. I also know most if not every old user has already moved their way to the new Ultimate Dragon Ball Rp wiki, again something a few of you pointed out to me and others who came here. The idea of the wiki being taken down after a valent attempt to reset it doesn't sit well with me, and it took coming back and seeing how some of the pages were now to make me reach my breaking point.

Though many of you might not understand not having been around as long as I was, Dragon Ball Z Role-Playing wiki wasn't just the occasional "drop-in, have fun, then leave" wiki for me. It was something I invested so much time in to make it worth while, for better or worst. Even though I was clearly flawed in my younger days (makes me sound super old), I treasured this wiki because of the memories it gave me. Through all the drama that went down, all the gossip, and all the backstabs and betrals through not only characters but users, it was still a place to be for users through the good and the bad.

But something needed to change. The Death of Dragon Ball Z Role-Playing wiki wasn't a settling one for me. The people in charge, from my knowledge, tried to perform a "reset" of characters and events on the wiki. Then what happened? People began coming here less. I don't want the wiki I invested three or so years in to be wiped from wikia just because the reset didn't work out the way they wanted it to, its died in much honorable ways. It would feel too much like a slap in the face to me and any old user who loved and hated this wiki for what it was to just give up on it.

That's why I've made the choice to try and adopt the wiki in its current state, so I can revise it to a stable and fair version of what it once was. It will be a rough cleanup, but I know that with my stubbornness following me into adulthood, it can be done through and through. My track record isn't the best, but this is something I feel I've got to do not for others, not for personal gain, but for the wiki that took care of me through a many twists and turns in my life. My plan is to revise the wiki the way it should have been and work out the kinks and errors I can see clearly from this standpoint:"If I don't do this, the wiki will die for good.". I only ask that user young and old to give me, SS3Tre, the chance to prove that, through all the BS and problems, when I've put my mind to something, no matter how dumb or crazy, I can get the job that needs to be done finished to a T.

What bigger job could revising and reviving the wiki no former admin (including myself) or the Founder could handle be?
