- This page is about the forums on the offical FunOrb website. For the forum namespace, see Forum:Index.
The FunOrb official forums are forums set up by Jagex to allow players of FunOrb to discuss games with one another, tell each other about their Achievements, or anything else they wish to talk about, including compliments and rants. Originally, the forums were only for members. Afterwards, free players were allowed to post once they acquired 42 achievements. Jagex is currently testing the possibility that anyone can post, so achievements are not necessary. As it is still in the test phase, Jagex has not made an official announcement or updated the Customer Support article on the forums.

Discuss the Games[]
Arcanists[]
Threads of magic!
This is where players discuss the game Arcanists. The game was originally discussed in the Strategy forum, but due to the overwhelming popularity of the game (before this forum was released, the Strategy forum had about 10 times the number of threads in the rest of the game discussion forums, most of which were about Arcanists), this forum was created. The Strategy forum's thread count remains very high due to the fact that the count includes moved threads.
Armies of Gielinor[]
Slow but sure moves the might of the threads
This is where players discuss the game Armies of Gielinor. Like Arcanists, the game was originally discussed in the Strategy forum, but this forum was created for the same reason as Arcanists' forum.

Deleted Forums[]
FunOrb FAQ[]
Most of the answers are here!
Was in "Player Support". This is where players ask general questions. This forum was deleted as it overlapped other forums.
Hints and Tips[]
Share your hints and tips with everyone!
Was in "Player Support". This is where players post guides to or tips in games to help other players, though sometimes such guides are made in the game discussion forums. This forum was deleted as discussions overlapped into the specific forum for particular games (or genres).
The Billing Orb[]
Request help from the billing team
Was in "Player Support". This is where players could ask members of the billing team for help. This forum was deleted as billing queries and e-mails were more efficient.
Other Games[]
For FunOrb games which don't have their own category
Was in "Discuss the Games". This is the place where players discuss games in the Other Games category. Since no games are currently in this category, this forum confused many players, and thus was deleted. Its icon became the icon for the Arranging Games forum.
Racers[]
The place to discuss, suggest and comment on racing games
Was in "Discuss the Games". This is the place where players discuss games in the Racer category. Currently, the only such game is Hold the Line. This category was later deleted and all threads in it were moved to the Sporting Games forum. However, Hold the Line remains a racer instead of a sporting game.
Pun-Orb[]
Have Pun!
This forum was located in the "Community Forums" section. As part of an April Fools joke (first appearing in 2009), this was where you would post all of your puns, it had since been removed and was brought back for April Fools 2010.
