Discord Chat

Post by Lavarinth »

Discord appears to have caught on wildly over a short period of time. With that, support for Ventrilo by Campaign Creations will be ending effective immediately. The server, in actuality, has been discontinued for the past four or more years, however due to some loophole it has remained active without payment for this long. Will it continue? Who knows! Regardless, attempting to access the control monitor to maintain the server puts it on the host's radar, making it probable to be shut down after their realization I ended my contract with them years ago. You are all welcome to forever continue to use the server so long as it remains running, however officially speaking we will now be moving to Discord.

Discord is a free chat service which supports both voice and text channels. Text channels retain their logs and are reminiscent of IRC's own chat system. Voice channels offers higher quality and lower latency than that of Ventrilo, and is available for any operating system including phones; as well as being ran via browser if you wish to not install the program.

At this moment, the rules of the server will remain open-ended due to the lesser degree of activity. Staff and myself are free to manage and moderate channels and user activity. If you disagree with any actions taken upon someone or yourself, please contact me via PM.

I was considering switching to it myself but you can neither run multiple instances or use different names per server. Server switching would get really stupid in a hurry. Yet to run any actual tests for voice quality either.

Right. The "ill-advised" method of running multiple instances so far is using different browsers and running Discord via browser. However, not sure how the mic would respond to this setup.

They've been incredibly responsive to user suggestions, however- voicing your opinion seems to go a long way here. Personally, my thoughts are with you, thanks to the introduction of actual accounts now, (which I believe are the #'s at the end of your name,) there should be sub-accounts as an option, such as server-specific names and profile images.

Little known fact, you can adjust the bitrate of each channel itself in the Overview tab (of the channel, not the server).

I can hardly get a legitimate response from them about the numerous bugs I've run into like it resetting the TTS voice. I don't know what you have the quality set to currently but mesk goes robotic if he has any kind of volume to his voice in the staff channel.

Reddit? Oh, that's why the audio quality is so bad.

The logic is clearly: You use imgur, so use Discord, cause Reddit!
