    Default SRL Discord

    Hey Guys,

    IRC is pretty outdated and unusable. So I thought I would make a discord server for SRL/Simba users who want to chat in a better system.


    Here's the invite link:

    https://discordapp.com/invite/bgN9srT


    Edit: Changed the invite link to discord previously made.

    It would be cool if we could get one that was actually run by the site Administration, good alternative in the mean time though.

    If any admins want administrator roles on the discord, I'll give it to them. They'll have the same permissions as the owner.

    Or they can just make a different one. Whatever floats their boat.

    So that link is in the member section or something? Why wasn't there a post made about it in general?

    I didn't see any threads about it searching the forums. There's only 7 members in that discord vs the 5 I have from making this post.

    Neither are considered "official" by any means.

    we don't have an official anything besides discord, but the "unofficial" skype group that a lot of people are in made that one, I didn't know if they posted it or not, I don't really frequent the forums any more (1 post every several months.)

    sorry for the miscommunication, I guess.

    Alright. I didn't even know there was a discord group already made. Or that there's a skype group.

    Thanks for the info.

    Maybe an admin/SRL Senior member should post a discord group and make it official.

    Why would anyone use Discord? It's just IRC with a bunch of overhead.
    Feel free to ask me any questions, I will do my best to answer them!

    Easy voice chat. Chats are logged so you can read conversations you missed. Video/Image links are embedded so you don't click something you don't want. It's not an eye sore like IRC is.

    I think that covers it.

    And you can be in multiple discord servers at once so you can be in your own and easily keep up to date with the SRL discord.

    The same reason they use Slack over IRC.

    Eh, the few times I've used it, virtually noone used voice chat. For logging use a bouncer. Video/links are all client sided and easily possible. To visual appeal meh; it's also client stuff and very subjective.

    You clearly haven't used IRC extensively enough.

    I have added ranks as well now, from Jr Member up to Moderator rank. If you're new to the channel, message any of the online moderators (currently only me and Justin) for your proper rank
    There's separate text and voice channels for each rank, but the general text channel is the main channel and I doubt the others will see much use.
