LameLefty Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 It sure would be nice if the Community Managers remembered that “community” includes this Forum, which has long-predated the existence of Discord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it for gaming with my friends, etc. It hands down wins that fight. But as a support channel, yup, it sucks. But, it's how the world decided to be, so that's that...

(To be fair I agree they 'should', but the truth is, forum isn't how these companies operate anymore. So time to start adjusting) I really like the way Discord organizes communities and such. That said, people drifting to something as isolated as Discord is from the usual internet search has made it so certain information and data is kept under the requirement of downloading X software, joining X server and THEN looking for said data/info. Data/info that's way more volatile than forums are. This topic has been an ongoing piece of discussion for a while now with the rise in popularity of Discord replacing classic forums and community hubs. I like that devs/CMs are actively participating in the Discord in a laid back/casual manner and answering some basic questions every now and then, but I agree with the other user that certain info, such as that concerning the game's patches or updates, should be posted in parallel on the forums aswell, to at least keep both platforms on par in terms of available info.

Exactly. Discord's real weekspot is having any archival capability... Sure, you can pin a post, but its not like a pinned forum topic that is always easily seen, discord pins you have to deliberate go look at. The conversation scrolls along WAY too fast to be useful for anything other than immediate chat -- It does chat great. But it really stinks for static info.

stephensmat Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 I never go near Discord either, but the community is such that it takes less than ten minutes for me to hear anything relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd argue that it does chat great - IF you are on a server with less than some undefined critical mass of people actively posting at the same time. Bonus points if the server members aren't behaving like over-caffeinated 12 year olds with the attention span of your garden variety squirrel. It's not conversation - it's stream of consciousness blather on most large servers. Edited March 16, 2023 by LameLefty typos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtract 9 hours and 3am PST is certainly unlikely - but some games do update servers at that time. 9pm PST would be late... But still Thursday EST. Barely.
