Guild decides to use discord

>guild decides to use discord

maybe u shouldnt play with retards

EVERY
FUCKING
TIME
also
>/vg/ general turns in to a name drop/circlejerking central

>guild decides to use discord
>actually stay alive more than 4 months
Im impressed

It's the perfect way to sabotage a general though. Just introduce a Discord. Only the smart ones will disavow it and blacklist any retard who uses it.

>/vg/ general
>0 game discussion

>guild uses Discord same year game has launched 3 years ago
>still going strong, more people are on discord than ingame chats
See the difference here is that half the people in the guild are above the age of 30, we even have a lot of active female players. Age makes or breaks everything anons.

>General becomes a war between faggots pushing discord and people telling them to fuck off

season 2 when

>tight-knit guild decides to use discord & recruit new members
>finds a fucking guy who non-stops meme images

Ahh, that sure is relatable.

>join /vg/ discord
>nothing but bane references

Using discord should be a punishable offense

>Hey guys wanna' hop in voice
>Oh my mic is broke
>Mine too
>Same

I just like chatting sometimes, why do people have to be such fags?

>feels the need to talk with strangers on the internet
>not a fag

>/vg/ general's only problems with namefags and circlejerkers come from newfags who are bullied into submission/chased off or other generals
never got the whole /vg/ is cancer thing, maybe I've just got odd taste

>join a private server
>click on the "Forums" section of the website
>mfw it takes me to Discord

You literally just chatted with a stranger on the internet

>Discord causes discord

Not with my hot voice I didn't

Hmm

>guild uses discord
>everything goes perfectly fine

hehe i know it's just like reddit!

...

>tfw the 30+ year olds in the guild are too stubborn to learn how to use Discord
These oldfags force us to use Team-fucking-speak in 20-fucking-17

Chazo did nothing wrong

>female member of the guild
>is loud and obnoxious all the time to overcompensate
>always making crass jokes and yelling to try and seem masculine

I just want to relax and play you shrieking harpy twat.

>Soccer spirits general

>start discord
>someone dies in a car accident
probably not related but who would take those chances

but it's not
Namefags and circlejerkers are usually reported, it's game content 90% of the time, off topic posts are usually related to hard science, or theorycrafting about games, and are an extension of the discussion that was going on at the time
it's like a really small but slow board that has the same rules as /vg/ but they're actually enforced because other generals causing issues made the mods protect this one

The singular namefag who was really accepted was the guy doing the server hosting and that was only when he was talking about the server

>30+ year olds aren't retarded
>force the rest of the guild to make non retarded choices
can i join?

*upvote*

Autism generals have actually good reputations and basically act like /diy/ + /sci/ + Sup Forums when it's good unlike casual shit like overwatch.
They also happen to be on page 10 all the time though.
/vg/ is fine if you actually like good games.

How do I make friends on discord?

>join /vg/ discord
>fun for abit
>notice the circlejerk echelon
>circlejerking nonstop
>furries holding most mod powers
>most emoticons are just people's OC
>any negative comments towards furries or the circlejerking leads to all the circlejerkers and furries firing on all cylinders against it
>autism rampant, banned from speaking for hours, and the twinks getting too much attention

It's like all the worst a community has to offer comes to light in these /vg/ discords.
Shame because some of the people were really cool.
If you see anyone with a furry avatar as a mod, just leave.

>the worst person possible makes the discord
>every single one

it always has to be some belgian tranny or some stupid furcunt or some unhinged australian weeb or something that can't moderate for shit because they're an attention starved control freak

This is true until the game you like becomes popular and you get to see the slow death of the general and the slow increase of cancerous shitposting thread by thread

does /vg/ have trannies? how do they not get flammed to death?

Teamspeak has add-on options that blow discord out of the water AND it has a better audio codec by far, whatever "opus" Discord uses is obviously far lower than normal bitrates.

What's so wrong with discord that Sup Forums is always frothing at the mouth with it?

I've never bothered using it for any large groups (my guild is pretty small, but we do have a discord), is that where the hate lies? It's quite convenient between friends.

This is legitimately THE most retarded mech design I have ever seen.

Who the fuck spent time modeling that?

They're stuborn and keep shitposting until people get bored of telling them to fuck off until all that's left are enablers

This is why we don't allow discord on fgoalter
Doom posting is at least fun.

half of /vg/ are trannies, user.

Amalgamate generals made of the corpses of dead generals are fine.

Someone who knew how to take advantage of space engineers being space engineers

>join a discord server
>everyone's posting memes and shit
>post this
>have gotten banned on two different servers
Well

>some /vg/ posters try to make a discord
>make great internet friends
>rarely browse the /vg/ or even play the game we met over anymore

This is Space Engineers, user. This is a game about making space ships and someone used rotors and pistons to make walking horrors in a game where they don't exist.

sauce

>does /vg/ have trannies?
they're hard to miss with how much they whore themselves out
>how do they not get flammed to death?
because any kind of attention is good attention to them. the best course of action is to ignore.
Discord is full of a bunch of losers desperate for any sort of human interaction so how do you think they receive boy sluts

Ah, so that's why Sup Forums hates discord. They join shitty online communities and get caught up in shitty drama instead of using it to set up a server to play with friends.

what games do traps even play?

catgirl simulators

That's what mumble is for you dumb fuck.
Discord is a poor fags mumble with more room to attention whore.

Sup Forums hates social interaction because NORMIES GET OUT OF MY BOARD, so a good 90% of them don't have a discord, let alone anything that makes it easier to contact them. That's why they shun anyone who likes socializing, because those anons don't wanna be left alone once they leave the safety of this board and jump to a closed, social environment.

They've traded one shitty online community for another except they can't be anonymous in this one

t. someone who has never peeked inside a /vg/ discord
or some dumb attentionwhore who frequents multiple /vg/ discords

>go to some game's dischord
>never heard of dischord before
>there's a guy in there who only communicates by posting a single smug anime girl every couple of seconds while other people shitpost each other

I'm actually part of a small discord group, it's not a /vg/ or even from Sup Forums, and I must say, it's quite diferente from the usual interaction I have here. I almost forgot what it like to discuss something without resorting to image reactions, green texting or calling names, respecting others and generally being a normal, healtyh person.
This places really cripples your ability to properly socialize if you let it.

/4ccg/ in a nutshell

>Guild decides to use discord
>Literally nothing changes

>mmo thread
>try to discuss which mmos and compare them
>thread is filled with people who hate mmos

>thread is filled with /ffxivg/ or /gw2g/ posters and no real mmo discussion is going on, it's just them
which is worse

leave this place

The ones you cherish the most

>ask wow fags what they don't like about xiv
>"The story is bad, the combat is slow, and the game won't let me quickly grind to late game in a day"

What's actually wrong with Discord? The only site I see hating on it is Sup Forums and since you guys hate everything for arbitrary reasons I'm left confused.

>tfw the 30+ year olds in the guild are too stubborn to learn how to use Discord
can relate.

We have a 30 year old admin who refuses to use Discord, or when he has to hop on, he's mostly silent. He still thinks we should use ventrillo.

Make me.

wow posters being ubiquitous is predictable at this point
I want obscure actually good mmos

It's okay for serb organization if used right but more often than not develops horrible circlejerks.
Discord is one of the things that got the only general ever to be actually permanently deleted from /vg/ via autosage filters in that position in the first place

>guild leader invites his pussy
>pussy is incredibly argumentative and annoying
>kills any conversation going on in gchat by being confrontative and obtuse
>previously alive and flourishing gchat turns into barren wasteland where nobody says anything
>thinking about quitting the guild

>guild/vg creates a discord
>there's a lewd channel
instant red flag

>be part of a shitty community
>said community makes a discord
>discord magnifies that community's shittiness
>blame discord for your shit community

maybe you faggots should stop participating in shit communities in the first place

like, I don't mind people not liking xiv. But when you come from wow and say that a game not having a good story prevents you from enjoying the game then I want to beat you over the head with a fucking pipe

Botnet (but what isn't nowadays), heavy, some questionable ToS (but what doesn't nowadays) and is on the road towards addonbloat.

why does discord kill anything it touches while teamspeak makes it more alive?

shitting on blizzdrones for what they consider "lore" is always fun, no harm in that
blizzard's quests and lore are a joke and will always be a joke

>someone goes afk for an hour
>returns
>20 people write/say wb/welcome back

>someone goes afk for five minutes to answer the door
>returns

>someone takes a leak for 1 minute

>tell people it's getting annoying, greet someone when they come online for the day like a normal person would
>they tell me i'm rude

Was I rude?

I would be annoyed too desu

t. doesn't get 20 welcomes when he comes back

Basically what happened with /mhg/

Welcome back user. I know you've been waiting your turn to hear it.

> there's an rp channel
> there's a nsfw channel
> there's a vip channel
> they welcome you using a bot
> there's an attention whore commenting on every single post anyone makes on any channel
> 47 members online, only three or four faggots talking at any given time

360degreesandwalksaway.png

teamspeak is also newfag, ventrilo is where it's at

Discord seems to magnify the shittiness in any group, one I'm a member of is constant political talk (mostly Trump derangement syndrome). I'm just sat there wanting to play vidya without any of that bullshit.

>the game won't let me quickly grind to late game in a day
this pisses me off to no end
>"Why does this mmo make me read so much? Why can't I just grind? I don't want boring story I want to grind dungeons and raids wow xiv has less raids than wow? That's literally the only thing that matters in an MMO so xiv is terrible"

>not strictly using icq for communication

I SUCK balls ALL DAY just because i LIKE IT SO MUCH

FUCK
YOU

>transition from Skype to discord after using skype for 7+ years
>chat have almost exclusively been text based, nobody talks now
>group has been much more seclusive

Lul Sup Forums only hates on discord because they dont have friends.
I invited all my long distant friends into discord and not only did they all befriend each other but now we have gaming nights and shit and its comfy af

this desu i'm fucking tired of all this shit

>guild switches to discord
>they were dead in the first place so literally nothing changed
there's like three guys who actually interact with each other.

>Be in a small Discord with 6 or 7 people
>Just comfy as fuck

Stop joining aids discords.

>tee hee
>sexual innuendo
>obvious come ons.
>oh you..
>tee hee
>yeah so like..
>tee hee
STAHP PLS JUST STAHP

Pretty much this. Small groups with a common interest and tight-knit sense of community is way better than a giant ass labyrinth of channels and huge sea of literally whos.

i dont understand, i have yet to find a decent discord community, was social media always this bad

what are even some non shit discord servers? I've literally never been on a good one
