1) @Reisen is now a chat admin
I'd like to apologize (including to @Reisen ) for not posting that here.
I'll work to be more consistent with announcements here instead of server discussion moving forward.#rolebot
and #role-react
channels have been removed and replaced with Discord's built in Role system. To set your roles, simply click on the Channels & Roles listed above all of the other channel listings.
There's also a new Server Guide section with some resources for you, and new members will have some onboarding tasks such as visiting some aforementioned channels.
Disbord Survey
Last, but certainly not least: If you joined this server via Disboard, and you remember which tag you found us on, would you mind filling out a one-question survey just letting me know which tag it was? I'm trying to figure out which tags work and which tags don't for our listing. Thank you #events

P.S. I know timezones are hard. If there's enough interest, we can look at having two showings for movienights, one for each half of the world @moderator
or us directly (if we're online) if any problems come up so we can deal with or prevent them in a timely manner, please! (edited)#general-chat
to #serious-chat
, general-discussion to something else, and #lounge
to #general-chat
and just handle the general channel like every other discord channel does. Then just allow any sort of discussion in everything except for #serious
. The argument against that was that this server would just be a clone of reddittulpas with just casual reaction images everywhere in every channel and a dead #serious
channel.
I was considering giving that a try, though I knew that the moment I did it, Reg would resign, and then we would be left with just Reisen's system and I. Considering that recently silly-posting was only one specific point in the drama surrounding Reisen's system, I knew the result would be "still drama, now less admins".#serious
channel and lifting the "sillyposting" rules. Then Reg would be gone. Reisen has already expressed that they have already been extremely stressed over the last three months, and I would not ask them to remain as an admin. I would be the only administrator left, and that's just not attainable. Maybe we can promote some members as moderators or HOPs, but everything would be left on me for admin stuff when drama comes up as it absolutely would. Once a year or so I'm told "Just do XYZ and it'll fix everything" and it doesn't.
I've watched some members migrate over to Reddittulpas and they seemed to have embraced the community with open arms. I don't see anything that Tulpa.info provided that this server couldn't provide, at least in the way the current community wants us to be.
Unfortunately I can't quite get into it though; I've noticed a pattern in the channels where some discussion starts to kick off, but then someone posts an emoji or gif of a cat, and then the next several messages are just "Kitty" or cuteposting. Is that a bad thing? Reg will read this and say that it is. Many reading this will certainly not; after all, it works for them. It might even work It may just be a generational thing; I'm used to IRC or the forums. Discord, which is more of a social media platform and a totally different style of posting and conversations. Not as fun.
