Guild Discords

[Geras]

Could we have channels set up for the non-secret guilds in discord? Could be a place to post handy links and the like. Just a thought.

[galaxgal]

What kinds of links, I guess, is my question? I don't think it's bad if people want to share cool, helpful, non-necessary information or resources, but I'm leery of anything that moves info needed to participate out of the game and into a third-party social platform, especially if it makes those platforms become expected.

If they're open channels, I don't see much harm in guild channels on the Discord. The guild-specific sections on the forums were removed though, so not sure.

[Geras]

I was thinking they would be open channels. And an example for a link would be posting the stringing colouring app thingy that Temi did. Or just chatting.

Having these things handy wouldn't just be useful for people in Discord too... it would be useful because people in Discord could share the knowledge in game more easily.

I'd rather guild channels come back in game than move to discord.

[Tasker]

Yeah you might as well just bring back Guild channels in-game if you're going to go this far.

[Taunya]

Or bring back the guild sub-forums here, would be more accessible than discord.

[Dreams]

I do not want guild channels in discord, personally. Not only do all people not use discord, but I don't like IC information taken out of the game. If it is a 'guild channel', then there would be some guild purpose for it.

You can already create group chats with multiple people in them if you just want to chat OOCly. I don't see why this would need to be something additional for imms to need to monitor if it was guild-specific. If you want your friends all together for chatting, you can already do that.

100% against. Sorry, but without staff supervision, it's just a bad idea.

[Geras]

Who said it would be without supervision?
