kanny 20,667 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Anyone using Discord on here? If you dont know what Discord is it's a app based platform for voice chat and text chat . I'm in the process of setting up a basic discord server for us to use it runs on a invite only basis . I'm not much of a talker myself but I reckon some of you could talk the hind legs of a donkey lol I thought it could be a bit off lockdown fun for us all if people are interested I will make another post guiding you through the process of getting on. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 28,796 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 My family are all using a group chat thing called house party I think? you invite in who you want then lock yourselves in and chat the screen spits into however many screens there are people and away they go, it’s a nice way to see the kids and grandkids or like minded mates 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kanny 20,667 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 My thoughts were running it on a invite only sort of like moochers, everyone could have a invite as long as either I know your a long standing member or one of those member vouch for you kind of thing to keep out the undesirables. Normal public domain rules would still apply dont post or talk about shit you shouldn't. To the THL management I am in mo way poaching from you with this I get nothing from it and if you want to do it yourself then be my guest I think that it would be a great idea for THL to have its own discord channel it would save me some work lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kanny 20,667 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 If anybody's interested the first thing you need to do is download the discord app from your app store and register ...it's free then pm me on here Edit to add its probably good idea if you use the same name as on here it will save some confusion 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah kind of it was actually developed for online gamers but now it's growing into much more than that . Once your in you can come and go as you please ONLY people who have been invited can join in the rooms I've created. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
