I didn't hear anything that bothered me, but I logged off at 11:30-ish on the east coast, which means there are about two hours of which I have no experience whatsoever.<br /><br />Bragging about being banned isn't great, but crapping on the work of people in the channel is even worse.

If I really have something important to share with someone, I will message them. If it's to the group, then I would just speak up. Just like at a game table, certain members of the party tend to fill the conversations that happen. Unlike a game table, there is no GM to ask the quieter members what they think. I think the one potential pitfall is a possible self-enamored person(s) constantly talking/bragging/self-promoting and not letting another get a word in edgewise. Thus far I have not heard that in the voice chat, but I have only been there once. Overall, Discord is a great success in my book and I am thankful it is there.Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05722958681098483324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-52188790266882078372017-09-15T12:46:07.949-04:002017-09-15T12:46:07.949-04:00I bailed after about half an hour because it was b...I bailed after about half an hour because it was being quite dominated by a couple guys recounting all the places they've been banned and being pretty dismissive of the work done by some of the content creators in the channel. I'd be more interested in hearing from those creators than random tough guys.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17963840638321499359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-74260787848880623732017-09-15T11:42:44.164-04:002017-09-15T11:42:44.164-04:00I was probably one those voices who dominated conv...I was probably one those voices who dominated conversation (at least near the end). My advice would be for those who want to be heard, please talk! Sometimes there are voices just to fill the silence, or to keep the conversation flowing along. It's also good, if your name isn't your name, to throw in a "Hey, this is Fred, but I go by Blacksphere online, I just had a question or two..." . Those of us dominating convo can perhaps pause every once in awhile and say "So, anyone else have an opinion on that?" or "Well, that's what I think, anyone else?" But let's face it, certain voices are always going to dominate the conversation, either because they are more comfortable talking in the format, or they actually have interesting stuff to say (I could listen to Rob Conley talking gaming theory all night).Badmikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199830751033032585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-61239794003801884262017-09-15T11:11:04.347-04:002017-09-15T11:11:04.347-04:00i dont think Discord has a hands up feature.

I guess my point is, I speak very little, but am perfectly happy with a chat rather than a moderated discussion.Caleb Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12858260507123306044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-87391074300308271922017-09-15T10:53:04.662-04:002017-09-15T10:53:04.662-04:00These are good points...

Not trying to be critical, just hoping that some protocol might be implemented so that a broader audience can participate.Bretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15771231698501570926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-88997855445417321172017-09-15T10:39:54.112-04:002017-09-15T10:39:54.112-04:00Only two observations - 1) people need to use the ...Only two observations - 1) people need to use the 'push to talk' feature. Limits the extra chatter. 2) We may need to figure out how to get voices heard when a handful of folks dominate the conversation, maybe a 'raise hand' feature?ThrowiGameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05133660079104504377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-10109553811256084512017-09-15T10:31:53.311-04:002017-09-15T10:31:53.311-04:00Great news on your wife's health!
