I myself am against logging into their new forums because they display your full name... to yourself. I don't mind seeing my full name but it begs the question, WHY is that info there? What are they going to use it for? They wouldn't just code it in with no plans.
But I don't like realid either and can't imagine people that signed up for it when it would show your 'friends of friends'.

I think a majority of that traffic has already shifted other places ... that's going to shift. Besides, we have enough dumb people, myself included   , here already.

I have to admit I laughed.
But for the original question. We may get a little busier but I wouldn't bank on it. People who have always lurked/trolled here will still be here. People who have always used the official forums will likely use them again, even if they are different.

These forums are too old and outdated.

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.
The weapon is only as good as the person wielding it.
Free advice is often worth what you pay for it: nothing.
