The information on the post is not quite correct, on the browser log-in screen, if you scroll down you can find the links to our social media channels.

From the in-game cogwheel settings (bottom right) if you click onto the question mark (?) you enter the support suite. The ''How can we help?'' section there has a dedicated section for the Forum, including full links, how to register and more click here to head over. Our ''Did you know'' post recently added this to be more pertinent also here, to help visibility as we see not many players read our ''How can we help?'' section.

Currently the directive is for announcements to only be made via Discord as our main communication channel. This is partially due to the varying formatting tha... Read more

The link removal was was done due to the fact that Discord will be used for all official announcements now, especially given that there are far more players registered there than on the Forums already. It would have been a bad move for us to then not provide a link to the platform where these are, hence Discord replaced the Forum link from the game.

As you are probably aware we have a social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and X (formerly Twitter) that has helped us to provide a multiple choice of platforms for our players to engage with us. Discord is no different in this to the rest, as all are third party sites with their own guidelines that have happily worked for years.

Age groups do not necessarily come into this, as all platforms have a great mix of ages participating; no one has a set pattern where Elvenar is concerned as our players ages are extremely diverse ranging from our youngest possible players at 16 up th... Read more

The reasoning behind this was simply down to the waning of the Forums, as over time fewer and fewer players have joined and more and more players simply stopped posting and engaging here. Players have also petitioned hugely to get Elvenar onto Discord as their preferred platform of choice and have refused to join the Forum for a myriad of reasons.

From my side of things, since I landed here in 2019, I have been trying to stop this trend and had changed several things on our server, not least the way the in-game news is used. As this decrease was seen, I made a point to use this fabulous tool to boost participation by advertising some of our more important announcements, competitions and at times some threads to reach all of our players and not only spread game awareness but Forum awareness.

In the same vein the support team has also become very active in this; linking tickets to the Forum whenever possible to also spread awareness to pla... Read more

I can partially answer the question again if you would like me to...  

Hey guys, I am not sure if this helps broaden this subject, as I am aware many parts of the world do not have this time change occur @SCI0N but wikipedia covers the rationale nicely for this... Read more

I should add that we are still seeking three moderators...  

Please see A Gateway to the Past which also is covering this subject, despite its deviation from its original subject matter.... the Forum/Discord debate is there too.  

Happy to confirm that this was exactly what we took the inspiration from  

Dear Humans and Elves,

We are just adding to this that the Discord server, is not a game server and that no gameplay will be being moved to there. It is just purely a further information channel the same as our other social media channels across Facebook, Instagram and YouTube to help our players come together for the love of Elvenar!

This means that Elvenar is still available to play via browser, app or a mix of both platforms, in this nothing has changed whatsoever.

Hopefully this will help to alleviate any confusion for those that are not familiar with social media platforms and were unsure of the future of the game and how to reach it.

Do reach out to us, should you have any additional questions, the team would be delighted to help as always!

kind regards
Silmaril
