This is a very real problem. At least the top two most popular servers have active forums outside of the official ones, I'd bet the other playerworlds do as well. If these forums were easier to get started with (why do people have to register? why can't they just hit start > forums and be logged in automatically like they can with the Graal site?) and offered more for the server staff I think they'd be used more. For a long time Era used the official forums, but we finally gave up with them recently because it's so hard for the players to get access.
