There's a discord site we use as a chatroom on Saturday nights while gagliarchives is broadcasting. Just a bunch of friends chatting.

This thread uhhh really did not go the direction I expected it to go.
By the way, I have ADHD and I use fidget spinners to help with boredom or impulsive decisions based on craving stimulus. I could make a Discord if anyone's interested. It doesn't have to be affiliated with Progarchives.com. For those who don't realize the benefit of Discord, it's basically a bunch of channels that you can jump between seemlessly--channels are similar to forums in a way, but messaging others is much easier because the communication is live, like chat rooms. Does that make sense? It's a nice place to bundle forums in a way. So, I could access a forum where people talk about prog just as easily as I could access a forum where they talk about guitar. Anyhow, I appreciate that this site exists. I do. Its UI is just a bit dated and I prefer sticking with the times--no offense to some. Discord also has voice chat rooms--which is neat. So, yeah. Would anyone want me to make a Discord? |

I’ve said it before on another thread, but this forum is a relic of the past and so are a lot of its members. I’m one of those relics, and realistically the only reason I moved to FB is that EVERY forum I was a member of slowly moved over to FB - except this one, obviously. I am fairly sure I will eventually move to Diacord, too, just because musicians and artists are finding their reach on FB so diminished, and they can do all they canon FB, and more, by using Diacord. Honestly, the only reason I haven’t moved yet is because I don’t like the white on black format, as I find it harder on the eye than black on white. But just as I reluctantly moved to FB from the security of the forums I used to inhabit, so I can see myself reluctantly moving to Discord. (NB - There is no negative connotation in relic, so as per the old saying, “offence is taken, nor given”.) |
