07.10.2024Forum Clean-Up
Dear Settlers,
To maintain the forums for the future and beyond we need to clean up older and outdated threads; over the last decade, we have accumulated a lot of data that beginning to affect the forum's performance and stability. To avoid future forum downtimes, we will delete entries dating before 2020. This will also alter your current "post count" in your profile.
If you wish to save posts, please do so before 14. October.
Please note that some sections such as guides and tactic maps will not be affected.
We appreciate your understanding, as we work to enhance your forum experience.
Your "The Settlers Online" Team.

Dear Settlers,
Our investigation into the recent website connection issues has revealed that external factors were the main cause.
We have since restored services and are implementing additional measures to further strengthen our infrastructure against potential future attacks.
As a token of appreciation for your patience and loyalty, please check your in-game mail in the coming days for a small thank-you gift.
Kind regards
Your "The Settlers Online" Team
