ForeverDB's forum is now Social: friends, guild Groups and sharing
· ForeverDB
The ForeverDB forum has become Social: short posts with no title needed, friends, posts for everyone, your friends or your guild, and a Share button. Every guild with a guild page gets its own Group, and old forum links still work.
The ForeverDB forum is now Social. Boards and thread titles felt dated, so posting works the way most players already use social sites: write a few words, add up to three pictures, a poll or a #tag, and post. A title is still there if you're writing something longer. Comments open right under the post, with replies, and the feed has four tabs: For you, Friends, Following and Newest.
You can add friends now. Press Add friend next to a player's name on any post, or on their player page, and once they accept you see each other's posts in the Friends tab. Your friends list and the posts you liked are shown only to you and your friends.
Each post can be for everyone, for your friends only, or for one of your guild's Groups. A friends-only or guild post never shows to anyone else: not in the feeds, not on the post's own page and not in search engines.
Every guild that has set up its guild page has a Group on Social: a feed only its verified members can see, for raid reminders, loot questions or just chat. Your Groups are in Social's left-hand column. If your guild hasn't got one, ask an officer to set up the guild page in guild tools. Guild pages also fill in from a linked Discord server now, with its member and online counts, its next scheduled event and a Join button.
The Share button asks where a post should go: your feed, for everyone (this needs your player page turned on, because shares show there), your friends, your guild's Group, or one friend with a note. A share never reaches more people than the original post could, so a friends-only post can only be sent to someone who can already see it.
Player pages show your guild under your name, how many posts you've made, the likes they got and your friends, with tabs for your posts, likes and friends.
Nothing was lost in the move: every forum post is on Social, and old forum links take you to the same post. If something doesn't work, use Report a problem on the page or tell us in our Discord.
