I want to post this in case anyone looks at this forum and goes "oh, I guess nobody is making FMs anymore." Not true: everyone is on the Discord. Just a heads up.
Here's the invite: (

So yeah.

FYI, the invite to the Dromed Discord server is already stickied at the top of the forum.

Oh yeah I know. I'm just sayin' everyone is there.

So instead of having the knowledge of the DromEd community organized and browsable, it's now jumbled and ephemeral. Galaxy-brain move, guys. No better way to commit slow community suicide than this.

Is TTLG getting shut down now that the Discord server exists? Cause I didn't get the memo.

I kind of agree. There are a couple of unintended side effects to moving everything onto Discord, and that's a big one - it's just horrible to search for things.
This uhh... This is probably worth talking about?

I also prefer the forum for a number of reasons (for what it's worth). But I'm not really very active with DromEd anymore anyway, so my opinion is probably irrelevant.

No offense to any discord frequenters, but as far as I'm concerned, I just don't care for how it's set up.. Like someone mentioned, there's just no organization there. There's a search feature, but you just get either too much or too little info.
The one upside for me, is you can usually get an answer to something fairly quick, but it just doesn't make up for how great TTLG filled that need before. It's sad that so many have switched there, but I understand the desire to have "real time" feedback, too.
It's a Catch-22. :-(

It's very sad that this forum is almost dead :sweat:
My english is not very good and I often use an online translator. So I would be completely wrong in an english chat.

It's worth pointing out that a lot of the people on Discord still check this forum, so posts still get answered. But because the forum looks dead, nobody posts.
It's also worth pointing out that Discord does have some major benefits, like Hit Deity mentioned. If you ask a question, you'll get an answer nice and quick. But I mean, Christine can't benefit from it. Christine!
We need to have a conversation about our stewardship.
