Hi everyone,

Did you know that CivFanatics is on social media? While we've been on some sites for years we've recently expanded out into more places and are actively working on having a bigger presence on them sharing lots of the great Civilization related official and community created content our site has to offer to the world!

We all like to stick to our favourite areas of the forums so it's easy to miss out on all the great news and events taking place on the main homepage and in other areas of the forums. All news items posted on this site are now being shared out to these groups, so if you want to stay up to date and not miss out on any of the action then we welcome and encourage you to join and follow/subscribe our official communities (managed by CFC staff) on these sites...

CivFanatics Twitter: https://twitter.com/civfanatics
CivFanatics Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/civfanatics/ (Note: This is a FB news page and not a FB chat group which function differently)
CivFanatics Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/civfanatics/
CivFanatics Discord: Coming soon!

These groups can also be accessed via our new 'Follow Us' drop down menu in the navigation bar...

We also encourage you to interact with any news items of interest to you with likes, comments and shares as that boosts their exposure to other Civ fans on these platforms increasing visitors and new sign ups to this forum community.

Obviously not everyone is a fan of social media so we certainly understand if some members are not interested in joining any of these groups.

As well as these external changes we're also looking in the not too distant future to change the way Civilization news is delivered internally here to our members to make it easier to access, subscribe, & interact with, so stay tuned... :)

Sorry, my FB is for RL politics, and I don't often share my RL name with fellow forum members. I did have a look, though, and may lurk a bit.

Many many people feel the same so that's fine. :)

Although because of that I should probably add a note in the post mentioning that it's a FB 'news page' and not a FB 'chat group' which behave a bit differently. As far as I can tell people can like or follow the page and no one other than admins will see their names (& if their RL name is nothing like their username that we'd have no idea who is who) unless they like or comment on the news we share which the public can see. Whereas with FB chat groups the whole memberlist is usually public. I'll double check that though!

However yes those who prefer to keep full anonymity or are not fans of social media can of course ignore these groups if they wish! :)

Just noting the reddit threads have a few display issues as I think you're attaching images that are not really relevant?
