Report history
During this searching process, I discovered that Forums, not News, are apparently where BGA shares "news" or announcements with players. This is very strange to me. I expected Forums to be for player-to-player discussion, and News to be BGA-to-player information. I have never looked at the forums because I have no need to discuss with other players in the world, as I really only play with my own friends and family. Based on various BGA admin responses in some threads, it seems they assume that all players are looking at Forums on a regular basis and seeing all the posts they make, which is simply not true. Tossing all the actual "news" into the giant pile of player-generated content is NOT the most effective way to communicate important things.
If I must start keeping up with the Forums as well as the News, I guess I will try to do that; however, even in the forums, there is no reliable "news" section! The Official Announcements board just has all the same content that is already posted to the featured News page (which, as discussed, is lacking). The BGA Release Notes board doesn't seem updated, either. I only found out about the Asmodee deal after delving deeper into the forums, too. That seems like a pretty important news item! Throwing it into the Forum > Community > Discussions board (the busiest, most random board in the whole forum) is a very odd choice.
I am left feeling confused and lost, unsure where I should go to actually check up on BGA news that impacts my play experience and tells me about important moves that BGA is making. I certainly do not have the time to check every forum board every day to see if a BGA admin happened to post something. If the News page actually contained more news, or if there was a news forum area that was more obviously called out as the place to go for news (and it was updated regularly!), that would be a much better experience for all players on BGA.
