"Thanksgiving Dinner"
But wait, isn't the issue as described by the mods more that the partnership was revoked even though the discord complied and immediately took the NSFW channel down? They complied within the timeframe specified by Discord staff but then got hit with a bunch of other charges that don't make sense like bad language, which you can find in far greater quantities on literally every other partnered discord, right? Why has this suddenly been spun to look like the issue was entirely the NSFW channel?
Because everyone's afraid that their partnered channels are gonna get demoted because they use NSFW channels to share porn and not for spoiler material?
The bad language and quoted excerpts from Eanae seemed like reason enough from Discord's perspective to make it permanent.
Why did discord need to go after the mods to take loli-porn down in the first place?
And I am guessing they told them to take it down and sometime after looked in and found all the shitty language.
Demo covered that:They complied within the timeframe specified by Discord staff but then got hit with a bunch of other charges that don't make sense like bad language, which you can find in far greater quantities on literally every other partnered discord, right?
How many of the upset people have come out and said, "I am very glad Disc took care of the cp stuff, but I don't understand the language stuff?" I don't see many.Why has this suddenly been spun to look like the issue was entirely the NSFW channel?
And it's not like they lost the disc channel, just the partnership. Why would disc want to be publicly associated with a loli slur-fested channel?
Its like saying "I'm very glad that the police department took care of that murderer that was killing everyone". Its assumed Discord would crack down on this shit, much like any other website that doesn't want to be Jared Fogle'd
The problem is, in addition to this, they're having their partnership revoked because of dumb shit said on the server that has been said on other servers and its one of those things where I have to withhold the bile in my throat as I admit the retards at r/kotakuinaction actually have something to fight over.
*Checks it*
lol no they bitching about twitter shadowbans.
What's the benefit of being a Discord partner anyway? Are the perks so great that it's a major loss to lose your partnership?
Someone gets a hoodie
Literally nothing except a hoodie and mild priority for server uptime.
This is so goddamn funny.
custom url i think is the only thing of value lost.
I think it's sad I didn't know the Subway Guy's real name until today. Well I gave him other names too heh >_>
VIP Voice servers was one of the perks mentioned somewhere that could actually have some sort of impact, and more priority apparently means less crash time (?) for very large servers that get hammered with traffic...I don't have any experience with Discord crashing though so I have no idea how legitimate that is.
Thing is that if the thousands uses of retard are enough to keep a server un-partnered, how come Discord isn't coming down on any of the other partnered servers that have thousands more than r/xiv had? I haven't taken a look for myself, but I guess the League of Legends server is the top cesspool of slurs.
I see the porn ban being nothing more than an inconvenience for some. The BG NSFW channel had some good shit and was used a lot more that the NSFW on BG proper. To me, it's the language part that is sticking. They are hitting everyone that uses a NSFW channel beyond being a Spoiler channel, but are not taking anyone else to task on their language "rules." Hell even the main Discord channel has hundreds of slurs.
Sono was digging through the Discord admin controls and found there is no language filter. So to effectively monitor your channel, you need to download a bot to take care of everything.
Did you read what demo wrote? Just because others do it doesn’t make it ok.
And I don’t consider these two separate issues. I bet the channel would not have gotten hit if cp wasn’t being posted in the first place.
This is not an issue of bad language, this is an issue of cp with bad language on top of it, making it an all around shitty channel.
Then take responsibility and get the bot.
When Sono decided they needed help with mods to clean up the forums, he did just that. It is very probable you guys needed more help to run it, and if you couldn’t get the help needed to keep it clean, then I think you have to accept the fact that the team was not sufficient enough to warrant being a partner channel.
Touché
