vBExperience!!!

neat idea, though, I'm also against this sort of thing generally. I understand why you're going with it. That said, is there, perhaps, someway just to get rid of the bars? There's just a lot of clutter by the profiles now, and I just don't need to see what someone's level/activity rating is. If there were some way to turn off the bars period, I'd be happy.

If there is, I'm sorry. I searched the options (albeit for all of two minutes, haha) but couldn't find any.
 
It really doesn't take up any more room if you're using the New Postbit Model... If you're using the Legacy Postbit Model, then yes. But I've already stated before, I will not be providing support for the Legacy Postbit Model.

Unfortunately... NO...

Wikis are one of the WORST things you can put on a website... They are huge database sinks and they affect performance worse than anything out there. For that reason I have put the Wiki into its on database. Both the Wiki and the Forums are on the same server, but they are on different databases. If you go to the Wiki it may feel slow and sluggish, while if you go to the Forums, they still run great. If both sections were on the same database, the Wiki would affect the speed of the forums.

I could add some scripts to calculate for it experience points from the wiki, but there are several problems with that. The calculations are done through the database; but I am continually pruning the Wiki database. As I already stated, Wikis are bad for databases, and because of this I regulary delete old revisions from the Wiki. Every edit creates a new page, and a history revision for each page. Leaving these revisions undeleted would make the database too large.
