Official forums are now read-only

by Mathew McCurley Nov 18th 2010 at 9:30PM

The official forums have gone read-only as promised, effectively shutting them down. The new forums, over at the new World of Warcraft community site, are your new go-to forums.

If there are any threads you loved, discussions you cherished, and anything memorable you wish to keep, it would be best to save those now. The forums are staying read-only until the end of the month, and then they are going away forever. End of an era ...

Forums going read-only

These forums will remain read-only until the end of the month, after which they and all of their posts will be removed ... forever! If you have any posts, information, stickies, etc. that you'd like to keep you'll want to have finished saving it before then.

We've all enjoyed the past few years on these forums, and look forward to creating many more with you on the new community site. See you there!

I like the forum Discussion: A Brave New World... Remembers me some sci-fi book...

Still the eternal optimist, I'm holding out hope that the Guild Relations Forum will be reborn.

Someone needs to write down "You awaken in Razor Hill..." and all the other great forum posts.

Old forums are still working fine.

Oh wait. You mean the US forums. Any change you will ever learn that EU people also read this site and that the world doesn't end at the border of the US? How hard is it to add 'US' to 'Official forums are now read-only'?
