DISCORD channel

[ade555]

Hi

I was thinking about discord channel, with recent thing on this forum how about having just a chat channel. What do you guys think? Lot easier to share pic/video ect.

How many members would know what discord is? Haha

Might be a good idea if someone explains it...........but some of us are a bit older and not into gaming.

But a good idea for some younger members, but I think it would be better keeping it as a forum.

If someone wants gaming, I'm sure there are lots of other places to log onto.

We have added a chatbox at the top of the home page for a trial period, if it come in useful we will keep it in place.

Problem with chatbox is not very accessible from mobile devices but still better then nothing , Discord is not just for gaming well it use to be used just for that but now is used for many things and is free, you can use on PC and all mobile platforms.

Facebook killed a lot of forums because of people using them to ask a question, it gets answered and they go away, meaning there is no easy record of the issue, discussion and solution, which is exactly what forums are good at.

Discord is not an integrated solution so it means people have to register again and the risk is like facebook, people will end up discussing car issues etc on there with the information will be lost and not on the forum.

Anything you set up is not officially supported by the forum, so please don't use our name.
