Discord?

[Rommy]

Hey so we should totally switch to discord, its this really good text and voice chat that is free to run servers on, etc. Here's a list of some awesome features

• Custom emojis (that we can use on our server for free; if you want to use them globally it costs 50 Dollars a year)
  
• Ability to set up multiple chat rooms both text and voice; so Lom can have his memezone, there can be a game room, politics etc. I know that some people do not like how the conversation goes at time so this can encourage a lot more discussion
  
• Ability to set custom roles, with custom names with awesome stuff and things
  
• Nicknames on a server basis, so if the name you want is taken for a username; you can still use it on a server
  
• The Voice chat is optional, you do not have to be connected to any voice chat to use any text chat. ; in fact we can effectively shut down the voice chat if we want.
  
• Sign up is easy
  
• We can play around with where the server is hosted, to get the best result for general user experience; Ill set the test server below to US South for now, and change it around at request.
  
• Discord's text system is as equally as developed as its voice system. It is not some tacked on thing, it works incredibly well, and for a general chatting box I highly recommend it. I'm on multiple servers and it works really well.
  
• Easy switching between chat rooms, and servers in general.
  
• We can set up bots to automatically do a lot of moderation for us, or even do some cool things. Siora Vision is going on? Set up a voice chat, mute all people except this one bot, who plays all the songs in a playlist. Really cool stuff.
  
• It has integration with video games if you want, or you twitch or youtubes.
  
• ITS FREEEEEEEE
  
• There is honestly a ton more, its more of something we should try out at the very least and give a chance rather than simply saying LETS SWITCH AND THATS IT, or a big NO.
  
• There is an app, or a web version. There is a mobile app that is really good as well
  
  

Here is the test server: https://discord.gg/v2F5wJv
Lets give it a try? Just @ me on Discord, if you have any questions related to it.....I mean lets discuss it at least?

To quote myself from the chat just now, so it's on record, "I don't care much about it and don't see much of a need, but also I can't argue against people wanting to try it out."

Sounds good to me. Why not?

Raising this from the dead cause someone pointed me over here. I would definitely support doing that. I can whip something up for the moment if that works.

Edit: Spoke with Rom. We booted up the Discord chat again to see if we can get it in motion.
