I know scripts are used or hooks that tie some functions to them or something like that. I feel the old gaming community relied heavily on a website, but now everyone uses discord.
Why spend money to keep this running rather than a seriously integrated discord that can mimic a website?
An interesting and important question. Let’s go over it.
- Firstly, the forums don’t really cost extra to run. We need to run our admin and game panels, so having the forums alongside that isn’t really a big issue cost-wise.
- Secondly, there’s a huge amount of history on the forums, going back so many years, we wouldn’t want to just delete that.
- Lastly, we’ve seen that discord doesn’t really work well for longer-lasting “discussions”, such as suggestions, bug or appeals.
