An official Glitch Discord server

I deleted the account. and @javaarchive, I’m not using just one egg. On Discord, majority of the people were very mean. You had a few nice people there. But on Glitch, people are nicer. They seem to behave properly, honestly. I mean, no one here on glitch has been mean to kaito, but they have been mean to him on discord.

I don’t think you can conclude that after visiting a few servers. But lets save this for DMs.

uh those eggs have more yolk in them, and through the millions of people who use discord, of course you’ll find someone that is rude to you, over the few people that are active on this Discourse forum, which is civilized discussion. It says so on the front page.

I love how this discussion of Discord being compared to eggs is going on.

bump because I think this is a good idea and has a small chance of actually happening

(its statistics,)

also that math is wrong… it’s actually 1 in NaN

no, its 1 in 0

1 in 7.5 trillion may not be the right odds, but I also wouldn’t count on this happening anytime soon. Due to the nature of fast conversations and many channels in Discord, we’d need a lot more resources to help out and moderate, and we’re simply not at that level yet!

Before this gets out of hand, I’d like to say that the 1 in 7.5 trillion statisitics things was just a joke reference to something that happened recently in the gaming community, sorry about the misunderstanding!

Yeah you’re right, the user interface of discord makes you want to type out messages pretty fast while in discourse we take time to look over our messages a bit more and feel obliged to check for punctuation/grammar/spelling errors making it feel more civilized. The size of a discourse post might also make people want to include a lot of descriptive information in a single post while Some users might seem to blurt out by sending multiple message in quick succession making it feel like they are talking fast but they actually just haven’t figured out that shift+enter creates a new line without sending a message. Most discord messages are sentences or short paragraphs (yes, I left out memes and all the ways to display content) so users are obliged to do the same.

Another reason I prefer Discourse over Discord for Glitch community help is because search engines can crawl these pages in the forum and direct users looking for help by Googling, for example. If most of the conversations and support move to Discord, most of the knowledge becomes ephemeral and hard to find. I find catching up on threads and searching for info on Discord to be really hard. This is why communities like Next and Ghost had moved off of Slack and onto forums like Discourse and Github Community discussions.

What about making a smart discord bot for the server so that most questions and actions would be done by the bot.


well u can with a little help from some natural language processing libraries, here are some links.
