I want to pose a question to /fast/ as it continues to grow in popularity as a place to migrate from the cancer that is 4/sthg/. I will be as polite and upfront as I can, and saying no is ok, I just want to hear your thoughts because it's just an idea and I wouldn't force it if users weren't interested: Would a discord server for /fast/ be a bad idea? The one for /sthg/ is filled to the brim with drama and SJWs. Quality of users & their content, and preserving the culture that 8chan and half-chan have always had, would take maximum priority. It would never become a replacement for /fast/, just a companion for users who want to grow a bit closer to each other.
Oh, and if there already exists one, then disregard this I suck cocks.
Why the fuck do people keep insisting on using Discord in anything that involves anonymous communities? It stands completely at odds with the idea behind them. I have no idea how you can talk about "preserving the culture that 8chan and half-chan have always had" and Discord in the same sentence. It feels like you didn't understand anything.
>>9018 We should work on actually getting /fast/ to get more activity. There's only like 20 people who come here regularly. Personally, I've never seen the point of a discord for generals/boards (nor do I plan to join any), but if people really want it, then they'll make it anyway.
>>9018 >Discord Unironically kill yourself.
>>9023 >>9035 The idea is that since non-normie Sonic fans (that are 18 or older) are hard to come by outside here, Discord would be a place where they could actually connect and possibly form friendships. I know, the concept of sociality is foreign and strange to many Anons, but that is the appeal.
>>9038 Discord gets shit on for being a platform that collects user data. IIRC someone got busted by the law for spilling the beans about something they shouldn't have. Basically anathema to the likes of /tech/ or old /g/. As well as being associated with circlejerks.
>>9039 Oh yeah, I actually forgot about that. As it stands, I think /fast/ is fine for now as just a board on here especially since we're still trying to build this community up. But if in the future, we garner a lot of activity & a lot of posters, then I suppose it can be considered.
>>9039 This is the first I've heard of it. I know there was a shitton of controversy about Skype doing it. But not Discord. Then again, Discord's most popular feature kinda requires them to collect data. And nobody said "everyone on /fast/ should be on Discord". The people who are fine with it can join and the ones who aren't can stay here where nothing has changed.
>>9044 Guess so. I might post something in relation to it in the future. Really, a lot of communications platforms are doing iton some level, sad to say. Funny thing is I just Saw my father cheat with my mom based on his whatsapp vids after asking for help with his phone due to being technologucally illiterate. It's a rule of thumb to be careful of what you post online, but I'm digressing a bit here.
>>9038 >I know, the concept of sociality is foreign and strange to many Anons, but that is the appeal. Don't be condescending. You're clearly looking for a place that isn't what this one is supposed to be, so maybe you should go try to find it elsewhere.
>>9047 it was a joke and I'm not even the OP. chill.
The one for sthg discord fucking sucks, there's one user and another artfag who starts constant drama there and are protected because of their ass-kissing to the mods. And yes, SJWs are a big problem on every discord for some fucking reason.
>>9056 >And yes, SJWs are a big problem on every discord for some fucking reason. >A place begging for whiteknights and cocksuckers because being anonymous doesn't allow them to form a circlejerking army Gee, I wonder… Back in the ye olden days, before gays and other bigots that over dramitize literally everything as contrivosal as Hitler, people knew how to make peace with others but respected people's thoughts and opinions, so you didn't need to hide your identiy because no one was out to get back at you for stupid shit. Now, ever since the 2010s, all the cancer came in and killed socialize forever. Why do you think so many normies came to 4chan for? Because say anything "toxic" anywhere else and you'll be permabanned for it. Before the normies came there, only the freaks of nature that did/liked illegal shit came to 4chan as a secret club from the public eye. Now, you see why so many people using Discord ends up falling into that trap and heads back to 4chan or here.
I've never experienced any problems on places like Discord & never got the problems people have had with it, but if it's clear that a lot of people here have issues with the site for one reason or another, then it's probably for the best to not make a /fast/ one for now. Besides, we're still trying to grow this board so it's a bit premature imo.
>>9056 >SJWs Why are you talking about a meme that's 95% dead.
>>10512 >MDE Why are you posting a meme that's 100% dead
>>10675 because the meme didn't ran into the ground.
Closing this since it's not going to happen and I'm pretty sure OP is gone and not coming back anyway. Please use the meta thread to discuss stuff like this in the future.
