 * massages brow frustratedly*

Yes, the two main reasons are more administrative control and no ads. Yes, you could argue that AdBlock would have solved the second issue, but people shouldn't HAVE to install ad blocking software to avoid it, it should just not be there in the first place. What about all the people who browse using mobile devices that don't support AdBlock? I guess its more a matter of principal than actual functionality, but I digress.

As for the administrative control, I mean things like being able to change the layout and experiment with the user interface (for the record, I personally much prefer the new site's interface over the old one), being able to disable articles from being added should the need arise (remember the lockdown? probably not, but the fact that Wikia would not allow me this control largely affected my decision), being able to properly integrate social media buttons and so on. It's not so I can spy on you or any stupid shit like that, sheesh.
