Forum:Removal of Social Tools

Hello Starcraft community,

As many of you are probably aware, we will soon be rolling out a new skin on all of Wikia. While designing the new look, we did a thorough assessment of all of the features we offer on Wikia. This wiki was one of those trying out the “social tools”, which for this wiki were: profiles, userboards, awards, gifts and friends. These are now quite out of date and so will be removed when we flip your wiki over to the new skin. Some of these social tools have similar extensions that are available, such as achievements. Please contact us via Special:Contact if you would like this, or other new features enabled.

You can view the timeline of the new skin rollout on our recent staff blog post, and more information on our FAQ. Our current schedule to remove the social tools on October 13th, one week after the initial release of the new look. We will update you here as that date nears.

We will be reassessing all the tools to see if any should be developed more fully in the future, so please let us know if there are any that worked particularly well for your wiki.
