postponing the removal of the guild forum isn't as good as cancelling its removal but its a welcome move, thank you
i would just have to live with losing my guild forum as i wouldnt have a clue where to even start doing something like that & given the way the game seems to be headed i'm not sure its worth the time or effort learningIndeed! We spent days migrating and updating the forum to become a standalone website (only option given that the message center is unusable for anything like the forum). Now we have a very beautiful new website and a half-complete and outdated in-game forum... seriously LOL....

Wow, you really keep account of things like that?I don't know either, but google sites is super-easy and we are having to do all the book keeping in google sheets anyway. Things like how much does it actually cost to unlock GE to level 4 for the current members, how much does our treasury make and lose every day, rather basic accounting that the game does not let you do directly without third-party tools...
My thoughts exactlyWow, you really keep account of things like that?
Surely there are people who play exclusively on Mobile. It is called mobile for its mobility. It is easier to use a cellphone while walking than to use a computer or laptop. Some people only use one device to access the game, and sometimes that one device is a cellphone.In all those years, naturally, they did not play on mobile exclusively. Surely once in a while, mobile players have access to a computer.
Same with the still more years to come...

Using the cellphone while walking? Sounds like more reason for cars to have to watch out for brainless speedbumps, while smashing that cellphone to bits. It is people who think they should be walking and using their phones that are the cause of so many problems today - bumping into people in the malls, walking in front of vehicles, at the dinner table, on a date ... no, do not make things easier for those who are foolish enough to exclusively use a mobile and at the same time ignoring the rest of society to their own detriment. (although it is quite hilarious watching someone concentrating on their cellphone walking into a signpost!)Surely there are people who play exclusively on Mobile.

The link to that in game is wrong, and instead links to https://en17.forgeofempires.com/game/Guild Forum Removal postponed!, which opens a new instance of the game instead.Thank you for your feedback everyone so far. Please see today's announcement
We will leave this feedback thread open however so do keep your suggestions for improvements coming please!
Doesn't do that for me.The link to that in game is wrong, and instead links to https://en17.forgeofempires.com/game/Guild Forum Removal postponed!, which opens a new instance of the game instead.
Yeah, me too. At first I thought they're talking about newly added Guild chatOh the in game guild forum, lol I completely forgot that even existed. Surprised its lasted this long actually.
And even on PC its a dead feature. My guild is an active one and newest message on forum dated 1 June 2020, so yeah...Why? barely anyone uses it from what I've seen since it's only available on pc
Its not about the number of players using it but its about of profit brought by players that are not using it. And I have a strong feeling mobile players just pay more.how do you know how many people use it?
and its not so much as the number of players that use it compared to the number of guilds that do, this is just another silly stupid move that makes no sense & follows no logic
I have a suspicion that original developers/coders of FoE are long gone from Innogames and new recruited stuff just have no idea how to make it workThat is more an argument to make it available on the mobiles then removing it entirly. Prefer to fix it within the System Center instead like suggested
