changedWe have been thinking about discord a lot, moderators included. With our heads joined we made a plan to make Discord even better than it already is. Our thoughts included streamlining chatter, reducing the gap between beta/vanilla, better event planning, and more.
addedWe will also update our rules to make them clearer and easier to understand We've also made changes to several roles and emojis, including a new opt-in role for the giveaways channel.
changedReducing the gap between vanilla and beta Discord is one of our top priorities. First we're setting up a public todo list for Homebrew and integrating this into a closed channel on the Discord Server. The channel will get updates on whats happening with development, and you guys can discus the updates in our main lobby.
changedOur Private Beta server will still exist, though on a much more limited scale than before.
changedAs for better event planning, we think that introducing a bot can do some good. The bot will periodically remind devs and moderators to stay on top of events and progress updates.

We have been thinking about discord a lot, moderators included. With our heads joined we made a plan to make Discord even better than it already is. Our thoughts included streamlining chatter, reducing the gap between beta/vanilla, better event planning, and more.

So lets take a look at the changes we want to make...

For streamlining chatter we are combining several channels, thus reducing the total amount while also making Discord a lot easier to navigate. Each channel will then be much more suited to a purpose, and channels in general will be much less confusing.

We will also update our rules to make them clearer and easier to understand We've also made changes to several roles and emojis, including a new opt-in role for the giveaways channel.

Reducing the gap between vanilla and beta Discord is one of our top priorities. First we're setting up a public todo list for Homebrew and integrating this into a closed channel on the Discord Server. The channel will get updates on whats happening with development, and you guys can discus the updates in our main lobby.

We're calling the todo list "Homebrew progress tracker" and its mainly meant so that everyone knows what is happening with Homebrew at all times. We'll also use the "progress tracker" channel to showoff the stuff we are currently working on, not just telling you about it.

Our Private Beta server will still exist, though on a much more limited scale than before.

As for better event planning, we think that introducing a bot can do some good. The bot will periodically remind devs and moderators to stay on top of events and progress updates.

So these are the main points we have in store for our Discord, now lets take a look at the new layout:

OFFICIAL

  • rules

  • updates

  • announcements

  • progress-tracker

CHAT

  • welcome

  • *lobby

  • help

  • modding

  • suggestions

  • bugs

  • off-topic

  • giveaways

CREATIONS

  • mods

  • trending

  • showcase

VOICE

  • afk

  • just-chat

  • just-chat-text

  • bigland

  • bigland-text

  • freeland

  • freeland-text

  • badland

  • badland-text

As you can see it looks a lot simpler and we think this is a step in the right direction.

These changes will be applied over the next couple of days. Channels won't be deleted, they will be set hidden or renamed so that we can bring them back if absolutely needed, or special permissions can be granted for content creators to retrieve their content.
