After a quick check of yet another Wikipeida entry by self-advertisers, the site seems to skew strongly towards young anime-enthusiast girls - 24.19.129.143 at 16:45 on 19 June 2005


 * As an aside, I always found that interesting, how much more girl-oriented stuff in on that site--as well as other personality quiz sites--than boy-oriented stuff. The difference between the two amounts is quite noticeable.  And no, it's not just anime; you can find a ton of quizzes that pertain to "What Harry Potter Character Are You?" and the like.


 * I would disagree with you if your statement is that the site is inherently skewed, though. I've been on the site many times and it's only the user-posted content that exhibits some skew, and there are many other quizzes that have nothing to do with either girls or anime.  The site itself (i.e. layout/format/presentation, quiz engine (I'm pretty sure, although I haven't seen it myself), features, and even on-site advertising) does NOT skew toward any content, from what I have observed. ~GMH talk to me 23:03, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

I'd like to see more on the quality of the site's content, the constant mislabelling, the stories outnumbering actual quizzes and user reaction to fanfiction being allowed on the site.

quality
There are many incoherent awkward sentences throughout the article. THere is also some vandalsim and tense issues.

Tied With MySpace?
"In early 2006, Quizilla started to get tied with MySpace. Some Quizilla contributors hold that MySpace is a destructive website for teens, and protest this agreement."

"Tied with myspace" is not clear at all, and I'd like to see some sources for this.


 * As the founder and a primary developer of Quizilla I can say there was never any formal collaboration or "agreement" with MySpace -- the "tied" they are referring to is probably the ability to have your quiz results posted in an automated fashion to you MySpace profile; this feature posts to the URLs for myspace profile editing but does no special magic and requires the user to also be logged in to MySpace.  (additionally, this is my first Wikipedia posting/edit so I apologize if I formatted something incorrectly) - Xunker 05:23, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite
I recently rewrote the article completely. I rearranged existing information, added new information, and excluded the awkward and POV statements that were present earlier. Please review this article to see if any improvements can be made. Let's make it our goal to make Quizilla comprehensive to the point that it's listed as a good article (although that would take quite a while). --Gray Porpoise 19:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Quizilla's gotten some new features that can be written about. --Gray Porpoise 21:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

First Sale before Viacom
Before Quizilla was sold to Viacom/MTV, I (the founder) first sold the site and my employment to "Gorilla Nation, LLC" which is the company that later sold it to MTV. I would like to include this fact, but there was no media coverage of this first sale so it would be hard to cite the fact beyond "I said so". How would the best way be to include this fact and stick to the guidelines? - Xunker 05:47, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

No offense or anything, but how do we know you're the founder of quizilla.com?


 * A fair question. While I'm not sure how to provide sufficient proof that I'm *the* Xunker (aside from the unbelievable uniqueness of this name), I do have references:

(Note: I removed some old links no longer needed here) The good people at MTV were kind enough to put up info in the FAQ for me: http://www.quizilla.com/faq.html#83bb88_1d1268

POV
Terrible POV violations with the "issues" section. If anyone wants to fix it, you're welcome to, but it's deleted for now. 204.210.81.76 00:23, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Quizzes and search down
It should be mentioned that the search on the site is down and none of the quizzes are appearing if you try searching for anything. 97.104.94.108 (talk) 12:16, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Quizilla not working?
I've found out that when you go on the Quizilla website, it says there is an internal server error. Is it normal or does this rarely happen? Or is the site down like the other couple of times I've found it like this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.71.74.157 (talk) 02:57, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
