@Timcast now the newsroom chathistory is visible

I can't find any global setting, so might have to set permission to each individual channel.

yes every individual channel

you can create a *category* in which the channels are placed, then you can bulk edit the category settings for multiple channels at once tho

it makes sense to use one channel with invisible history for newcomers if you plan on keeping the invitelink public, to prevent misdeeds by trolls. and then use some kind of roles for new participants that check out so they can see and interact with the other channels. just a suggestion 😃

Yes, that's a very good idea. It's how I've got my own server set up - the invite link sends yo to #lobby, but that's the only thing you can see until you're assigned a role.

as a precaution. you need mods for it, or there are bot solutions which i am not familiar with.

Yeah, the bot solutions are nice, but they're usually pretty complicated to set up

I'm also partial to the IRC role system of Everyone < Voice < Halfop < Op(erator) < Admin

keeps things simple for roles

isnt there some term for *the followers of tim pool* - acolytes of pool, pooligans... something? 😉

None that I'm aware of

me neither hehe

Discord machine 🅱roke

tim poolers

buy merch

like and subscribe

I think Pooligans has a better ring to it

sweet and tender pooligans

Could maybe do Timcasters

dunno, that may be too close to Timcast

could cause confusion

No ghey clan tags plox. 😛

Timcasters, s1ck

yea but pooligan sounds like a portmanteau of poo and hooligan

It could also be a portmanteau of pool and hooligan, which is how I read it until you said that

well the poo-part IS unfortunate, didnt catch that 😉

how about "warriors of the frozen wastes"

:-/ It's a tad long...

@Timcast What's the purpose of this server? Just a hub for discussions? No image boards or?

news discussion stories and general conversation

Knights of Pool

:p

@SmallPrice I think you're assuming honor where there may not be any. Or at least, I know I don't have that much honor.

well its a bit presumptious yes

@Timcast Your server is growing fast enough that you may want to consider creating a role to give to users that you would trust in helping to manage the server and the people on it, especially given how often you typically travel. It would suck to spend X hours on a flight and get to your hotel/hostel, log on to Discord, and find that while you were out, a troll got onto the server and managed to invite a bunch of their troll buddies, but nobody could get rid of them.

There are some bots you could look into getting in here that have automated protections for that as well, though

@Revan Considering if this server becomes as big as other discord servers such as politics and so on that would actually be a must. Having too many people posting stuff on one board will create a wall of text which nobody really want's to scroll through.

@Timcast are you ever gonna un-deafen yourself ?

yea but i need audio on for work and it got muddled yestrday

a'ight i feel ya

yo

oh a mod

uhhh good luck

I expect the hell to rain down as this server becommes more known.

It may become popular.

ahh fuck it, youll probably need jesus, zeus and buddha once that happens

One of the other servers I'm on only has about 5 moderators for over a thousand users, but it's also a pretty quiet server overall

Probably cause of the userbase?

It varies. Some crowds are rowdy.

Some are peaceful.

People are different, case closed

Hey Kori.

10 minutes before a reply

Discord raids are a very common thing.

Hi @Timcast , got a few suggestions for you: 1. create an admin only channel for posting announcements/new videos etc. 2. create multiple voice channels and limit them to say, 20 users 3. add a suggestions board which people can post on for the moderators to see.

@Bruce Ohn o, you're a mod here..

yep

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It will do some good to have a bit more hierarchy and some more channels for rules, announcements, and such.

the kekistan discord is quite a good example of a well ordered public server, with one text channel per topic etc.

how big is that one?

Also, sounds like something id be into.

several thousand users

🐸 ❤

I think I peered into the abyss

Waiting for it to blink

Personally I would recommend to have general chat for everybody to use and post. Though I would recommend that there would be some "higher-tier" threads which everybody can't access for a good reason, people who post quality threads.

yeah its not for everyone, but their structure is definitely worth imitating

Hello

Man the 10-minute time limit is pointless

look, Koris in the house

Hallo

Bruce

Did he give you Emoji powers

also, you guys need an faq/rules section asap

The first thing Kori wants is emojis lol.

YE

I have some that won't be racy as well

@WOODY Yeah, but not a damn wall of text rule pages.

So as to not offend tim pools audience

yes, keep the rules brief
