The Official Erin Hunter Message Boards, widely known as the Warrior Cats Forums, was the community hub for fans of all works by Erin Hunter, primarily the Warrior Cats books. The main draw of the site was the message boards and discussions, which included roleplaying and original characters. Fanart and fanfiction were also shared on the site.
The forums were the central platform of the WC fandom for a long time, before it was shut down in 2016. [1] There had been millions of posts on the message boards at the time of the closure.
After the WCF's shutdown fans created a new site for unofficial forums known as the Warrior Cats RP Forums.
