that is how i tried to use forums in last few years, when i was not posting at all.
yes, you can find sometimes some interesting information about other continents, but you can find even more what could be considered almost in-game play, but posted in plain words that have no any flavor, while sucking blood from in-game grievances.
As someone who has played on every continent, and in a variety of realms, I seriously doubt your claims. I read the forums a lot and I don't see anything that supports you claim. I do a lot of moving and shaking and have a lot of eyes and ears in game and I will say this: realms that are more active on the forums are more active in game than those who aren't (in large part anyway). Show us some posts where people are sending orders and coordinating civil work or planning entire duchies switching allegiance. You haven't yet.
