Forums Removed from Application Profile Homepage

Greetings Developers,

Sorry for the late notice in this notification.  You may have noticed that we've removed "forums" from the application profile.

We did this for a number of reasons – but mostly there were too many complaints of spam.  Both members and developers alike were unhappy with them. Members can still click on either Post a New Topic or View All Topics. These are now redirected to a separate page. Forum posts no longer cloud your homepage. This is your choice to use them or not.

If you’d like more exciting forums, there are a NUMBER of free bulletin boards out there, which are only a Google search away. You are able to include that link in the profile of your application -so they’ll be only a click away from you. You may notice that the free bulletin software out there has much more options for users and administrators. If your application is very big/popular and you are in need of a new solution, you can message me directly for some recommendations.

Thanks,

Rhonda

Edited to add: ** Update - We did not CLOSE these forums. We simply removed them from the homepage of app profiles. They still exist on your profile (but not on the front page) and as stated, you can choose to use them if you wish. I apologize if my post was unclear.**

Just to be totally clear...

****************************************

we have NO PLANS TO CLOSE DOWN APP PROFILE FORUMS. We only removed them from the app profile home page.  They still exist on your app profile - just not on the HOME PAGE.  You can choose to use them or not :)

I am sorry if my words were not clear.  :)

As always, feel free to contact me directly with any questions, comments, or suggestions that you may have.
