wow this is an amazing idea , the problem with new players is they have no idea how to use the forums (like you said )

bringing the forums into the game client would definitely boost forum activity 100%

why ? I mean who would wanna keep switching tabs first of all , a win win for old and newer players .

of course this is easier said than done but wow this idea really speaks to me , especially for mobile players ( a good portion of all the new players are mobile) this would be a game changer , being able to sit in lobby and scroll through forums would be an absolute game changer for people like my brother (sosa) who struggle to figure out the forum on their own
