Discord server shutdown

[Vetusomaru]

Regular members, some who had been really good contributors. It was almost amazing how fast and hard they sunk that.

Daaaaaamn! Good thing these regular members never became moderators to said forum.

I've only been moderator for another person's forum one time in my life because I was from the most regular members there. And since then I decided to never become moderator for another person's community even if they ask/beg me to. Unless I get hired as Facebook moderator, the salary they get is quite good and everyone can apply for a job as a Facebook moderator.

Discord brews trouble. Is what i've been seeing across the interwebs. It was only a matter of time before it got out of control.

 

[ZEGA ZONIC]

Oh, so she became mod. Funny. When we talked, she made impression of nice person.

I think she left the discord before it got shutdown. She is however, in these forums.

Discord brews trouble.

And illegal activities. But somehow discord gets away with it despite keep allowing that kind of illegal servers even when said servers get reported a lot.

One of the mods said this to me when it still existed.

It was a bit harsh & rude.

I'm right here, Zega. I won't unpack everything what lead to that here in front of people who weren't there, but keep in mind that while I wasn't perfect, you certainly weren't either.

Come on dude, that's why I'm here. I wanna know what went down

But now here comes the biggest question I think someone might or might not agree with:

Would anyone be willing to make a second attempt at doing this? I don't think itll be run by Spike this time, but I'm a little curious to know if anyone would be willing to have a second go at a Discord, truly finding the right admins/mods to choose and such.

Edit: i sound like a child saying this ?

I've said this on a status before, but I'd rather try an IRC channel. And limit it to forum members.

Not that I don't see value in discord servers, but I miss the old and simple plain text chats. Having just like 10 people from here could already result in something interesting.

No. I don't think it's a good idea to stir up old drama, as tempting as it may be. I'll keep my mouth shut and I hope you guys can respect that

Even in the past I never understood the appeal of IRC. It wasn't so convenient either. Its popularity was probably because literally everyone could open their own IRC server easily, quickly and for free. The only reason I was using IRC was because some anime could get downloaded only via IRC channels. Which makes it no different than communities that force you joining their discord servers to get access to certain material.

Personally I always preferred chatrooms/chatboxes/shoutboxes over IRC channels.

I just prefer anything that I can get myself ahold of and be okay of using.

Oh so you are here.? If you are interested I still didn't read No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai. Was no time for that.:)

I mean I understand the appeal, but I think it's better to just...let stuff go sometimes. I wasn't the best mod - in fact I even left the server in November 2024 because I felt like I wasn't making any difference. Now I'm slowly dipping my feet back into the CDR/RGT community pool and I'm just trying to have a good time, with leaving certain stuff exclusively between me and the people that it concerns. Building new bridges and maybe even rebuild old ones

Why did you feel you weren't a good mod?

...can you give me a hint to your Discord name? I know I talked about Dazai with someone but I forgot who ? I haven't read it either yet

HOSOK. It was at the begging of the server's life?

Let's just say I wasn't cut out for it, okay?

Same. And I don't think that I will talk too much in the future. But it was funny though, back then when discord was launched. Also I was hoping that it will be a little bit more russian-speaking people in the future there. Now the server is dead. lol

Join any Gothic (the game) server and you're sure to run into Russian speakers :D

Why should I? I just was wandering is it possible to beat Spanish and Portugese with Russian in foreign chat or not?
My favorite game by the way. Planning to learn German one day to play it in original language.:)
