Could you, please, stop using twitter as your main information channel? I do not own and not plan on owning a twitter account, so use your own forums for that!
And please don't post  a "Oh btw server are down" 40m after they crashed, it looks bad.
 
*Just another rant post from an annoyed costumer*

			I'm a twitter user (or should I say, twitter stalker) but I think that a twitter feed on the forum would help for sure.	
----
			
While I'm with you on not loving the twitter thing - it's something gaming companies seem to like though.
 
Best bet?  Bookmark the wildstar OPS and just check it when things seem wonky.  I don't have (or ever had) a Twitter account and it's not hard to keep up with them still.

			is it really that hard to type "wildstar twitter" or "wildstartops twitter" on google? You don't even need an account to see the posts.

			Cant say that twitter have been holding any updates of late either. Silent as in the grave.

			Another thing that never ceases to puzzle me is the use of US times, when they gives info on a EU server. :s

I don't think that's the issue.
The issue here is that non-twitter users don't have an easy, direct access to Ops announcements on the official forum, that is used by those to access the information about server status and other pertinent information.
I don't mind using a 3rd party media to get my info, but I do understand why some don't find it ideal.

Agreed, still, a twitter feed on the forum would be rather easy to implement I guess, and would satisfy everyone looking for info on the official, non-third party media.

I'm an avid Twitter user, but I agree with the OP:
 
An up to date thing or tracker on these boards would be nice.
They have a tracker on the website, so integrating that here should not be too hard.
You cannot expect everyone to follow all social media.
The main site/forum should be the prime source of all information.

Well, they are a U.S. company.

Twitter is easier and faster and more convienant to use.

So is Blizzard, but they still use EU times on anything that concerns European customers. It's called courtesy!

			Using twitter is fine but all news updates should be posted on the game launcher as well.

But nobody in Europe uses US timezones.

			I don't understand, why not just make a twitter account. It takes 2 minutes and it's useful for information on updates from most all gaming companies. You're not going to get updates on the Kardashians unless you decide to follow them, and if you follow the Dev tracker on this site. Most of the things Wildstarops posts on twitter are the same as here on the forums

IMO the ONLY time that Twitter, or any other third-party site, should be the first port of call for vital and up-to-date information on Wildstar, is if the W* forums themselves are down.
 
Then using a third-party site becomes necessary.
 
I mean why would anyone think that the best place to find info on a service is actually on that service's OWN WEBSITE?  That's crazy talk!
 
All The Best

Most people aren't going to think "I need information about Wildstar... I'd better head over to Twitter!". Usually, they will head over to the game's website

The bigger question would be:
why is there no newsfeed embedded into the launcher? THAT is the first source of info for active players.
Instead it's overloaded with marketing "news" every player already knows anyway.
