Basically, As part of upgrading their software (which was horribly out of date), FANDOM decided that it was too difficult or too much effort to maintain the Forums and related functionality.

In addition, they want to push their new feature Discussion, which is a lot more basic, is much easier to maintain, and looks more similar to how social media platforms handle posts.

Pretty much NONE of our users likes that the forums is getting removed, but we have no say in the matter.
