Facebook to remove Discussions tab from Pages
By Emil Protalinski | October 2, 2011, 12:00pm PDT

Facebook recently started notifying Page administrators that it will be removing the Discussions tab from all Pages on October 31, 2011. The Discussion app, also known as Discussion Boards, allows Pages to host a basic forum. Apparently, Facebook prefers that everyone just use the Wall,

The social networking giant has obviously noticed the decline and has decided to take action. Having all discussions limited a Page’s wall will mean much more confusion, although possibility more visibility.
I would bet that the Discussions tab is not picked up by the newly launched Ticker and the upcoming Timeline and Open Graph rollout. Walls on Pages are, however, and so Facebook has decided to just kill Discussions instead of updating the app so that it works with other updates to the service.
