yeah

2018-02-17 17:27:54 UTC  

it's hard to keep track of things

2018-02-17 17:28:02 UTC  

it's a nuisance to have to ask "who lives in X state" so often

2018-02-17 17:28:05 UTC  

I'm thinking of adding a dynobot to the server, we'll get to that when we get to that

2018-02-17 17:28:24 UTC  

Right now let's focus on the states

2018-02-17 17:29:51 UTC  

Okay, lemme put the vote up in bulletin board instead so people don't have to scroll up

2018-02-17 17:29:56 UTC  

gimme a sec

2018-02-17 17:30:24 UTC  

i've got the state roles covered

2018-02-17 17:31:22 UTC  

Alright, what did you have in mind

2018-02-17 17:31:38 UTC  

I am all for smaller states being lumpes together, makes people in local areas be aware to help other states that need it

2018-02-17 17:32:45 UTC  

I personally prefer a single alphabetical category for all the states for convenience, but we'll leave it up to votes

2018-02-17 17:32:49 UTC  

the thing is, Wyoming and Vermont are both small states, but I don't think they should be grouped together

2018-02-17 17:33:04 UTC  

small in population

2018-02-17 17:33:18 UTC  

if I want to look for Pennsylvania, I can just go to the rust belt section, and it's right there

2018-02-17 17:33:40 UTC  

instead of having to scroll all the way down to it

2018-02-17 17:34:00 UTC  

it makes sense to have regional categories

2018-02-17 17:34:09 UTC  

because states within a certain region have common issues

2018-02-17 17:34:26 UTC  

Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania have similar problems

2018-02-17 17:34:41 UTC  

New York, New Jersey, etc are similar

2018-02-17 17:34:42 UTC  

The issue I have with it is I don't want to clutter the discord a ton of different categories purely for states, and also, there's a lot of overlap between categories.

2018-02-17 17:34:46 UTC  

The downside to that would be stuff get cleared easily and you can lose conversation if you have everyone together. That is where I am against multi grouping of states

2018-02-17 17:35:07 UTC  

For example, ohio

2018-02-17 17:35:30 UTC  

It's filed under midwest, I think you could argue to put that in the rust belt, etc

2018-02-17 17:35:33 UTC  

@Linkueigman the state channels are for dumping info and discussing the issues for that state, I don't see the problem

2018-02-17 17:35:38 UTC  

@FLanon true, but it doesn't really matter

2018-02-17 17:35:52 UTC  

I just think i'ts better than having them all grouped under the same category

2018-02-17 17:36:16 UTC  

it's much easier to just navigate the 5 channels in the "rust belt" category than to look for each one in a group of 50 different channels

2018-02-17 17:36:19 UTC  

I could see it more as too many states group together and having them all the active you have to scroll up for any news someone might have missed unless you pin everything every single thing for news

2018-02-17 17:36:22 UTC  

it matters because I want the discord to be easier to use, and for people to find their state easy, alphabetics can't go wrong

2018-02-17 17:36:35 UTC  

I am for something like how do you see the Rust Belt I'm for that because it makes it look a lot cleaner with less channels

2018-02-17 17:36:54 UTC  

@FLanon I think this makes it easier to use

2018-02-17 17:37:10 UTC  

@everyone PM me your state if I haven't roled you

2018-02-17 17:37:10 UTC  

it's a bit of an eyesore to navigate through so many different states in one category

2018-02-17 17:37:34 UTC  

You know my state

2018-02-17 17:37:36 UTC  

in any case, if you have any opinion on this, make sure to vote in <#409493745315348490>
