Official AO forums are moving ! - Protect your names NOW

Post by bitnykk »

Announced today !

Incoming may 14th, the historical offical forums (good ol' forums.anarchy-online.com ...) would become read-only archive in favor of a new space soon opened in the new forum all Funcom game would share from now on => https://forums.funcom.com/

You can create your forum account there before that to be prepared for this change.

Odonoptera & Sezmra announcements here : https://forums.anarchy-online.com/annou ... .php?f=546

It's what they already did in the past 2 months or so with Age of Conan and Secret World Legends. All forums for all the games at the same place.

This leaves behind, though, a gigantic history and documentation for Anarchy Online. I hope they will never remove the old forums and keep them readable and "searchable".

I would recommend to open your accounts now to protect your names. I edited the title of the thread to reflect this point.

Is it just me being dumb or is there no AO game forum, just a bunch of other crappy FC games?

The AO forums will start soon, at the latest when the old ones are closed.

Once again, FC makes a boneheaded decision.

Years of history. Decade and almost another.

I'm guessing the new forums will have 3 subforums all named "How to join FC's new Conan Games".

Also, here's the old forums archive URL : http://forums-archive.anarchy-online.com/

Many unmoved valuable content are there (which means many guides are now pointing on dead link).

Thanks not. They now have installed a redirection.

For example my historical post "Effect of Soothing Spirits perk on pets healing capacity: tables " that was at
http://forums.anarchy-online.com/showth ... p?t=181137

is now redirected correctly to
http://forums-archive.anarchy-online.co ... ity-tables
