Gonna move here cuz it was Hikaru-san's wall. Hope you don't mind :D

Uff, the forum, god, how to explain ... I dunno, I've been on many Wikia's and took part in the forums, always deleted my previous account after entering a new one, and FGO wikia seems to be my personal fav and th one I've been part of the most ... The Forum is just, well, good, better than discussing stuff in comments, you can upvote stuff, discussing stuff is easier, you get notifications when there's an answer considering I'm active in discussion cough over 6k posts COUGH and I set Fandom Mails on spam, which is good cuz I have a monthly income of about a few hundred e-mails from alone from discussion so E mails from them are quite useless, considering I'm following 70% of the pages on wikia as well and with each edit and comment I get another e mail it's very useless to think of those as "notifications", which is why a notification in the messages thing is good and better from the Forum. The purpose of the forum? The Forum feature provides a central location for discussion about the topic of a wiki and other matters important to the community. Any user can participate in a Forum conversation, and registered users can follow discussion threads and received notifications when updates occur. The overall structure of the Forum is managed by the community's administrators and discussions moderators.

Forum is just a better place for discussing stuff than comment sections as comment sections are only for that specific servant / event, in the forum you can, similar to the Discussion, which is occupied by mobile users, discuss anything, from gameplay over servants over teams, opinions, thoughts on stuff, better meme spam ect. Stuff wont be spamed in comment sections, and bla bla bla it's just better than announcements.

But the most important thing is, we can do literal announcements, we can give a notification to anybody entering the fgo wikia fandom so they are redirected to that specific thread and can see it, good for announcing updates on rules or smth, there's a lot more about the forum, which is better than the discussion, and comment sections, we want to revive it, because almost nobody goes there, people can collaborate better over there.
