@blinky465 I’d be happy to see things go either way (all Discord or all Forums), it’s more a matter of getting the conversations going by the same method (rather than in two different streams).

Granted my natural preference would be for things to revert back to Forums, but ideally we would have to go where the majority would like things to be. It’s just we seem to be currently in a “Jack of all trades/Master of none” situation where there’s good conversations going on in both Discord AND in the Forums, but there little or no cross pollination happening.

Before Discord the Forums seemed to go from top to bottom on the front page in about a day, where now it seems to be about a week (so have forum posts dropped by 80%). I remember initially the Discord was for CoGs only before it was opened up to all visitors to the site.

It’s just seems to me that the Forums form part of the BoW site, whereas Discord sits apart (probably because there’s no ticker of Discord updates on the main page (perhaps something could be added there?)). And stuff from Discord doesn’t filter down to the main website.

But at the end of the day, I’d just like to see the community come back together is discussion and fact checking rather than being in two camps (as the vast majority will prefer one system over the other and tend to stick to that rather than going across both systems……that would start to feel like a full time job I guess).
