My overall opinion is that this server could have been a nice way to communicate with everyone that joined it, while the forums still existed for those that didn't want to use it or can't, but it sadly turned into something really toxic because of the negative feelings surrounding the removal of the forums on most of the servers.

it is a flaming dumpster fire going downhill fast with not one fire extinguisher in sight. thank you for saying so. people are off-topic and minors should not be giving their ages when they introduce themselves. period.
and . . . i do agree with nalu. but won't the mods do something about that??
apparently not.

By all means, go ahead and add a discord server. That's great, then players have another platform to communicate on if they choose to. But DO NOT take away the forums here. There are probably a lot of players that do not own discord, are not allowed to have it, or choose not to have it. How would those players be able to communicate? That is a large part of the game for me and I do not want to get an account on discord just to continue playing a game that I have enjoyed for 4 years. If this change is made, I will no longer have any excuses to continue playing and I (as well as many others players) will quit. Taking away the forums is the number 1 best way to lose most of your players (and a lot of money).

I have an idea, just StOp BuYiNg PaSsEs.
Im not sure if people even buy passes these days, but if they don't listen now they sure will then. Don't reward the company if they continue to make downright awful choices.

Were the forums to stay, people would just rejoice about this new, shiny thing. But this is a do ut des and the price (our old; Legacy forums) is just too much.

I don’t think the big player will listen. And let’s face it, you do not get more than 2000 rubans in a month without pass. Many passes. And being quiet single minded. They are not going to quit.

are they seriously going to take away forums? what in the heck.

They are currently a means of onsite communication between players and onsite is typically safer and easier to moderate than an off site option, like reddit or discord, is.

Even more so when remembering that there are kids on this site...

Just opened the forum and looked a few pages back. I’m honestly disgusted.

What I'm confused here is what experience do you have claiming the game is going downhill when you made your account in September of this year? Don't get me wrong, its not doing well but its been struggling for a very long time and this is just another thing to add to the pile. I'm not sure you should be the one commenting on Howrses past if you were not there to experience the issues.

I get and understand the frustration, even I was poking fun passive-aggressively but you have gotten to the point where all you do is complain with no criticism whatsoever. The Dev team is NOT going to read these forums and if you actually find this as big as a deal as most of us (including myself) you would contact support itself about your concerns. It is not the moderators job to clean up this mess and it is not their fault they have to censor your behavior. Plenty of people have mad a clear point here about this Discord idea and have not gotten censored.
