Ditching &/or delegating the forums are a bad idea. Larian should UPGRADE THE FORUMS. D&D are old school folks. A forum that's updated and eye-catching with lots of updates is more important that the instant gratification but complete lack of organization of discord.
You can DO more and organize information far better and create a more valuable, long-lasting bond with the player base on a forum. It should not be an afterthought. Its a big mistake, and its shockingly easy to update this forum.
