Discord isn't a bad idea actually. It can be used from a phone via the app.

But it would require a New Zealander to actually do, you know, some work. Effort might even be required.

*ducks*
Totally unfair. But just waaaayyyy too good to pass up the opportunity.

What kind of work would the poor New Zealander have to do?

I just made a hypothetical Discord server after noticing the chat is down. All Silencer would have to do would be to make the 'chat' button redirect people to that (or any other) channel. (and it's important to let people know it's going to be external, but it's not much work if people want it)

Anyone can click on the link and go to a 'malazan' discord channel.

So is this you volunteering to be in charge of the Malazan discord channel Emmy?

Sure ... since it's literally zero work.

You going to deal with the moderation too?

I'm certain the discord chat will need exactly as much moderation as the normal chat. But sure, that too.

Funny thing that - the chat section of this forum is the place that has generated the most moderation work for me by far. And also the worst moderation work. XD

Wait seriously?

Like what? I used to be always in chat and nothing untoward ever happened ...

It was by far the biggest cause of harassment and bullying complaints, as well as the main one for people just being general assholes. Since it started running it's produced more complaints than the rest of the forum combined - and if you exclude the "bad old days" of the discussion board, it holds the title for most required moderation period.

Chat got toxic at times, yo. XD

I don't know, maybe I didn't go to chat all that often.

Anyways, I'd be happy to moderate the discord if it's ever needed.

Did the Discord ever happen?
