The original forums will be removed at the end of the month to point players toward the new forums.

It looks like the shattering of Azeroth will put an end to the original WoW official forums. The forums will be put into a read-only state tomorrow, Nov. 17, before they will be completely removed at the end of the month. If you want to save any specific posts, now's the time to do it before they're gone forever.

While the old forums will disappear, the new World of Warcraft forums will give posters a fresh start with some new features, including the ability to rate posts. Since we're on the topic of forums, you can discuss the topic in our own WoW general forum.
