A LOT of people (including me) are angry that the redirect isn't more prominent, especially right now. RAFO is pretty much the primary heir of wotmania since Mike and Pento aren't doing it, Larry still posts here in addition to BotF, and there's still plenty of WoT content even without the TP and the FAQ, so it seems like we should be the primary alternate. Of course, not being privy to the decision making there I can't comment on the rationale. That, too, makes people more inclined to cry foul when an accident happens, if no more justified.
The OF Blog (its official name now, I should note) is my main priority, along with several projects that will come to light shortly that will draw more attention than this entire site typically does from outside; I view this as a place to be silly in ways I choose not to on the blog and little else. But for what it's worth, the Blog and The Thirteenth Depository are the only active sites that actually preserve wotmania content right now; RAFO might in the future, but not at the present.

We were told it was about the "trust" that the wotmania members had put in Mike by signing up.

He didn't, it just redirects there. And judging by the Twitter comment that wasn't on purpose. *NM*
