Hi everyone,

We have fun in Discord. It's a silly place. We've worked to make it as inclusive as possible, and I think, to an extent, we've done a great job. That said, there's always room for improvement.

The last time we talked about Discord it was about negativity and curbing that energy. I think we've done well on that. The This Sucks and This Rules channels are doing their job, and we haven't had any issues talking shit about people, which is great.

This time, we're talking about the level of blue language used throughout the Discord. Dumb stuff, playground stuff. Stuff that's woven itself into the fabric of the language and lore there, that's been there from almost the beginning.

It seems as if this may be driving people away, and I guess it's not worth it if that's the case. That said, I wanted to actually find out from you all what your view on it was. I can easily make a "no cum jokes" rule, but I guess like, I don't want to ruin the vibe if it's not a big deal. 

Discord is a self-selecting place of like-minded people, I get that. But it's also the sum of its parts, and there is strength in diversity. If that means less cum, so be it.

Thanks,

j

I posted on Discord like twice, intending to participate, but haven't been back. Nothing to do with the content or language. For whatever reason I just don't find the Discord format compelling. I've spent half my life on message boards, BBSs, Slashdot, Reddit, etc, but something about the platform of Discord itself doesn't grab me and make me want to come back. Unfortunate since that seems to be the primary place people gather these days for topics I'm interested in. Maybe I'm just getting old.

somewhat in the same boat as Dawn, above...RMR Discord would be a timesuck i cannae budget for, at the moment. i've nae hard feelings about it, but it just isn't a compelling platform, regardless of how active and engaging it may be. my desire to avoid watching my day disappear into Discord outweighs my FOMO.
