[RSS]: Brickset forum moving to Discord

Октомври 21, 2023

We launched our forum on 2nd April 2011 and for many years it was a thriving community with thousands of members and copious posts every day.

Unfortunately, in common with many other traditional forums, its popularity has declined significantly recently, in part due to the rise of social media. It's now at the point where it is no longer viable to continue to fund it on its current platform (Higher Logic Vanilla), which has raised its fees significantly, pricing 'hobby' sites like this out of the market.

The forum is therefore moving to a new platform, Discord, which may be familiar to some of you already. We've been testing it for a couple of months and it looks like it will suit our needs and, we hope, encourage more people to participate.

Here's the link to join our community and I very much hope you'll join us there.
