Do we actually have a Discord server? I could easily set up one in no time. It would be really good for all of us; everyone's using Discord for everything nowadays.

There is this one, but nobody ever really voice chats in it

I honestly think that an official TWHL Discord would be useful for when we organise games and so on.

The downside is, it would require a dedicated moderator or team of moderators to stop it becoming a meme filled mess. Run Think Shoot Live had a discord, but it quickly went to shit without Phillip at the helm and I left because I just could not hack the number of memes.

Depending on how the API works it might be possible to engineer an authentication system so that only TWHL members could join or have permissions to do stuff etc...

Never used Discord, it doesn't seem like a traditional client-server system.

A Discord server is private by default. We could create a new link everytime a member joins twhl.info. We can also install bots that handles all the stuff; probably including the things rufee is saying. I have one on my own server and it can handle automatic roles like adding the "Visitor" role if they're not members and "Member" if they're members.

I could be a Discord moderator if that helps.

@Dim I joined by the way. Thanks.

I think twhl members themselves spamming memes would be the issue, not randoms...

why don't we just add a room to the discord for that explicit purpose. The "garbage can", if you will.

In fact, almost all public/semi-public Discord servers have specific text channels for that. Normally, it's the public chat. We could just recreate all the forums' sections as text channels.

That might be a mess.

No memes or bullshit, just Admer, but he behaves himself, I can assure you that.

"just Admer, but he behaves himself, I can assure you that."
I'm melting right now. x3
It is true, though. In a real-time chat, I'm always more careful, because it's easier to screw up.
