Oasis creates a lot of "white space" on pages, making pages miles long. Patroling for recent changes is more difficult, and if I recall, galleries, by Wikia's apparent standard, will feature a gallery standard of over 200 images. The pages are filled with various adds, cutting down on visibility of the content and drawing visitors eyes from it, and apparently (and if I remember corerectly) certain features have been taken from our User pages and others, although I can't remember what.

And on a side not, to those who are using Monobook, there is still a home page that is in the navigation box on the far left of the page, but it is called "recent changes". Clicking that will take you to a page that's similar to Monaco's Home Page, but the changes will be more cramped together and will be a little harder to read. We can still somewhat navigate like we could with Monaco and Vector if we fool around with things enough.
