Discord need an overhaul

Aug 20, 2018 danstr link
Ok, so as people probably guessed from the 1000+ everyone pings (not even joking) the discord server is, in all honesty, a mess. And it's pretty easy to figure out why too:

- @everyone is STILL enabled for everyone, even after multiple calls for it to be turned off
- We flatly do not have enough active mods. The raid by banana went on for... No wait it's still going on as I type this... And Nihilus, even after being directly pinged many times, hasn't responded. Now I'm not saying it's fault on the current discord admin team, you are busy peeps after all, but we need an actual mod team, from various countries, to deal with stuff like raids and such.

I'd stick a screenshot here but pretty much every single one would violate the forum rules so guess not.

I have seen this "called for" as many as zero times. Perhaps you're "calling" the wrong person. It's now disabled on all the channel categories.

- We flatly do not have enough active mods.

Okay, I randomly promoted some Discord-specific mods.

But, really, we have a couple of existing mechanisms for communicating this kind of thing. You could Suggest changes on the respective forum.

I don't sit on Discord all the time, nor will I ever. If people have changes they'd like to see to that server, I'm open to it, but they have to be communicated to me (and not through Discord).

Fair enough, didn't think to use suggestions tbf.

As for no calls for it, I'm sure I've heard them. Maybe I'm mistaken.

Anyways, thanks Inc!

If your calls are on discord or 100, then you are shouting down a well. If you post in Suggestions, your call will be read by a dev.

Well, not entirely, but it was based on who was regularly active, and I didn't have time to ask people.
