Over time, boards have change into slowly phased out to get replaced by the likes of Twitter and effectively, Discord, so as to foster sport communities. This previous summer time, Gearbox Software closed down its boards and changed them with particular Discords for its varied sport franchises. A function like this enables for much more specificity for communities. 

Whereas creating boards, server mods can prohibit who can take part in a discussion board, whether or not it is non-public, create tips and default reactions, and so forth.

The addition of discussion board posts comes only a day after Discord had change into built-in with Xbox, and is alleged to have comparable integration with PlayStation later this 12 months.
