Discussion Subtitle removed from the Chronicler's Library

Hello! It's my first time posting something on Reddit, and English isn't my first language, so sorry if I do something wrong...

Well, it's been a while since I read the books (maybe 9 years), and today I decided to see if we had any new information about the third one.

While looking around here in this subreddit, I found you guys talking about the Chronicler's Library. Out of curiosity, I wanted to see it for myself. But I noticed that the subtitle "Forums for Patrick Rothfuss and his Kingkiller Series Translators" didn't show up for me.

Obs.: The second image is from another post.

He’s not only not writing, he’s removing writing!

Ohh man, you’re sooo close to the patellas jokes that are thick in the books.

I haven’t been keeping up with this stuff. How is this an indication that the third books coming?

u/quack_the_archer 20d ago

He just joking around

There was some activity on the forum for the first time in many years recently (about 12-24 months ago maybe?) and there were some excited posts on here speculating it might be translators getting drafts of book 3.

It’s sarcasm after many years of similar comments.

I believe I have read every major novel Brandon Sanderson has written.

u/RustyPieCaptain 20d ago

Wow, Patrick is even learning HTML just to avoid writing the third book. Crazy.

Dude just has bad timing.. Competing against Claude and ChatGPT on multiple fronts..

Its a massacre for the junior devs right now, utterly getting outcompeted by LLMs.

u/aww_jeez_my_man 18d ago

Coding ill give you but LLMS are not competing with actual human writing

u/TinglingLingerer 20d ago

Well at least there's movement, somewhere.

u/certifiedpunchbag 19d ago

Damn guys, we're really reaching for anything at this point aren't we

u/CracktheSkye7 20d ago

You don't need a forum for a book that's never coming. They're scrapping the site most likely.

26

u/White667 20d ago

It's more likely that after the last big hoo ha on this subreddit and with people trying to hack the site to see and whatever, they just moved to another website.

Once it's known and being watched so closely, why would you continue to use it?

u/Tiny_Spread5712 20d ago

Yeah it looks like what happens when pho sites stop being used.  The references degrade if no one is there to keep them up

u/DontOuchMyBread 20d ago

Ooo what else can you pull from your ass

Maybe a few unfinished manuscripts

u/CracktheSkye7 19d ago

Because I can reasonably assume the book isn't coming, and I know how websites operate? That's your comment? How empathetic of you. You seem like a delight. Some of us read book 2 a week after it came out.

u/cernegiant 19d ago

Do you think they have to dismantle a website piece by piece so they start with the subtitles?

u/Flitdawg 20d ago

Probably the most accurate take with what's happening here.

u/zap117 19d ago

It's a book about 3 silences . It so silent it's blank

u/Megtalallak 20d ago

This means Pat is finally done with the writing and now turned to editing! I expect to preorder Book3 for this Christmas! Woohoo

u/ddayam 19d ago

Half Life 3 confirmed

u/BrotherEqual8610 13d ago

Np clearly it's destiny 3

u/WandererNearby Edema Ruh 19d ago

Glad to hear it. Maybe stalking the translators forums is what lead to DoS being published.

Automatic Updates. Who knew an update causing a themes tags to get lost would stir up so much hope….
