- PaulHoule 4y agoDiscord? I dread "subscribe to my discord". The average discord seems to have 780 rooms but only 3 people logged in, they are kinda like zombies except that the word "brains" has 5 letters too many for them to handle.
- theshrike79 4y agoIronically the same thing used to be true for forums :) Someone really enthusiastically started a forum, added 420 different sub-areas and sub-forums. All of which have a maximum of 1-10 posts. Most of them by the forum admin.
- joemi 4y agoNot only that but there seems to be a MUCH worse signal-to-noise ratio in every discord I've ever seen (when compared to forums), due to the more chat-like nature of the platform.
- geekbird 4y agoSeriously. One discord that I am unfortunately on has one person who just drivels on and on and on. But I can't mute him, and he does this even on channels that are the whole reason that I bother with it. Apparently there is little or no moderation possible, so everyone has to put up with his train of though word vomit.
- charcircuit 4y agoIt's not like IRC or forums are any better in regard to inactive accounts.
- josteink 4y ago> If they didn't has discord/slack/reddit, it's not worth joining. Different folks, different strokes I guess. If I see a “community” require Slack or Discord, it instantly gives me bad vibes, and I’m almost guaranteed not to join or visit.
