Like it literally won't exist anymore.
Check under "News" in your messages on Roblox if you don't believe me. They seem to think that merging every single forum into just five is going to work out perfectly.

They don't care that it will go terribly because they don't much care about the forums at all.

It's fucking appalling how incompetent they are. They make it so un-fucking-believably obvious and then act oblivious to it. And then of course there's the mindless "roblox needs money!!!" people who come in and spew that bullshit no matter how relevant it is to the matter.

You know, now that I think of it, if they didn't just get rid of all the posts in the other forums from existence I would have much less of a problem with this. It's still idiotic, but the fact that they're erasing everything just really vexes me.

It's because they're lazy and don't want to deal with moderating those forums And for the record, every sub-forum that doesn't directly pertain to Roblox itself is getting deleted It really shouldn't be that surprising or confusing, because this has been a long time coming. They've almost certainly been wanting to do this since the fucking forum-merge.

Yeah, I've pretty much left ROBLOX now.
Why, Pruz?

Yeah, no point leaving here. Any interest in copying the transcript of Land of Ferinox and saving it somewhere for future reference or to look back at years from now and smile?

Imagine running a free to play game that you as the developer have to constantly update, maintain, pay for and yes get taxed on. and now imagine that at the tip of your fingers you have a million young children who will gratefully ask their parents to open their wallets to give you more money then 99% of people will see in their lifetime. What the fuck do you mean charity?

No. you'll keep your post amount, but unlike in the past when deleted subforum were visible, you won't be able to see them anymore. And all subforum will be dubbed "categories" to make it less confusing for new players or something like that. There is no forum subforum type of thing. It's category to thread now.

I have so much shit to save. All the renditions of TotG/SotK/WotA, After the Trenches... I don't think there's anything else I care about, really. But both of those things are going to be really time consuming.

so... all the posts from all other forums are just gonna disappear? Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try and save as much stuff there as you can on the wayback machine. I tried saving stuff a while back... it won't save pages of threads! Only the first page of the thread containing the information for the Roleplay and whatever responses on the first page.

I know how to find it, that's not a problem. The real issue is that they're all like 50 pages long.

Okay, so this is really stupid, but has nobody here thought about actually trying to stop the 'update'? Surely it's possible to do that.

(&PageIndex=2, 3, etc) Or at least that's my guess as to why it didn't work.

Should we try to "hack" them with all zero people that can hack or even understand coding? Should we mount a protest like back during the forum merge, which resulted in a half-assed resolution at best? Like, there's no possible way this tiny, incompetent community could ever do anything against a corporation like ROBLOX

When has ROBLOX ever listened to user input anyway? They're doing one thing right, and that's removing S&I. Wasted forum.
