New website has dead links

Hi,

I like the new web site design but it seems that some links are now dead in the site.

https://playfab.com/webinars

I am guessing there is a bunch of other ones but those are the two main ones that I was trying to use.

Thanks, where are you seeing these links on the new site? Not all of the pages for the new site will be the same, so those links either shouldn't be in the new site or should be update. If you provide specifics on where they're showing up, we can get them updated.

One is from your Terms of Service: https://playfab.com/terms/

The other one was a link from a forum post here. In general there will be a lot of links from StackOverflow or other blog postings that link to specific landing pages on the site. Having those broken without an appropriate 404 page or redirection leaves the user without knowing what is happening (effectively it shows a header and footer with no body content).

Thanks! We'll get those fixed up right away. External links to our old forum site can't be cleanly re-directed to those posts in the new service, unfortunately, but we're trying to make sure people have ways to get to the info they need. Any links to the current forum system should be unaffected - nothing about the site re-branding impacted the forums.
