User blog comment:Cristina7/Introducing Discussions, a New Platform For Engaging Your Community/@comment-18172179-20160908175356

I understand the need to include a Discussion board. Many fans use that feature nowadays.

BUT, why get rid of the forums? As far as I'm concerned, Forums are extremely useful for conversations about the policies, rules, changes and updates on a wiki... You know, SYSOP stuff that is completely irrelevant for the average joe, who just wants to say how awesome his fandom is.

Discussions are not a proper replacement for Forums. ... bah... do what you want.
