Pirates, for some time now, a major platform to discuss Pirate101 by the community has been on various community led Discord servers. We saw this trend continue strongly last year, so in May 2022 we implemented the first ever official Pirate101 Discord server.

Discord provides chat, profile, file sharing, real-time, classic forums, and streaming benefits over classical forums. The list really is impressively long. Discord is also where the broader community has migrated to over the past few years. We want to interact with the community as effectively as possible. The forums were highly valuable back in the day, but in order to continue to support the community efficiently and grow it, we need to keep focus on where you are all at.

With the success of our Pirate101 Discord server and the lack of use of the official forums, we have set the forums to read only. You still have access to relevant past articles, guides, and other resources, while we continue to post new resources on the website, Discord server, and elsewhere.

Thanks for understanding that this is one step this year to help us improve our ability to respond to you all faster and more reliably, and provide you an official and all-encompassing place to discuss the game with each other!
