Discord is a malignant tumor on this disease of a subreddit (and in general); partaking in it makes people more miserable and it causes problems that bleed into the sub. I haven't seen a single active discord community outside of purely functional ones that isn't a massive dumpster fire that lowers everyone's quality of life. I mean, just think about it:
post-based low-involvement community gets real-time discussion spinoff
only appeals to people who are really invested in the community, inherently creates larger distinction between regulars and casuals
a ton of time and effort is required to keep up with what's happening in the community and even participate in any meaningful way; now the regulars with the most time on their hands and/or the biggest passion (lol) for the community have the biggest social influence and highest social standing (lol)
oftentimes the people with the most time on their hands are also unstable, meaning that unstable people have now taken over the community
instead of a couple of mods and a bunch of members on equal footing people get an array of special permissions as decided by the mods
people with the right permissions can create their own exclusive hang-outs within the spinoff community
drama erupts over cliques that have formed as a result of the disparities in activity, exclusive hang-outs, and permissions in addition to the drama that would normally occur in communities where people get to know each other
disparities in activity, permissions, exclusive groups etc. all influence each other
drama is amplified by instability of the regulars and their amount of emotional investment in the community - horrible relationships form and explode, people gather blackmail, people conspire against each other and gossip constantly
eventually an admin gets caught up in a drama of the month and nukes the server or a disgraced regular gets it shut down out of spite
I used to participate in various discord channels until I realized it was filled with mentally ill people and weirdos (like furries, trannies, and pedophiles). There's just something weird about the platform that attracts all the freaks (probably because you need to be un or underemployed to stay up to date with everything). Feels like a shady back alley. And I'm too much of a respectable gentleman to frequent such lowly haunts.

It's similar to IRC in that respect (and many others), but somehow even more poisonous, and people get even more emotionally involved. Not sure why, maybe it's the difference in demographics or something
Wtf can ppl be even more pathetic lmao. Imagine being unironically so serious about fucking r/drama lol. Don't these ppl have a life or any accomplishments outside of internet forums?

Discord is for fags but you watch CP so I understand why you want it back
1 Volhar 2019-08-14
No u
1 DuBBle 2019-08-14
Yes.
1 sub2tine 2019-08-14
because the trannies who controlled it weren’t very stable individuals
1 YaBoyStevieF 2019-08-14
Now that just doesn't make any sense

I've never gone into the drama discord, and I very very rarely even glance at the 2 or 3 drama reddit chat things I was added to
what is the point of these things?
1 NormanImmanuel 2019-08-14
Friend simulators.
1 GeauxHouston22 2019-08-14
I thought that was podcasts?
1 NormanImmanuel 2019-08-14
That too.

To make rdrama suck. Once you start a chat room, a forum goes downhill because everyone's friendly with each other.

Did the platy chat get baleeted again?
1 Volhar 2019-08-14
No but all the people who run it are banned from here lol
1 CucksLoveTrump 2019-08-14
probably because of whatever drama happened the last time the server got nuked
1 GeauxHouston22 2019-08-14

I have a weird feeling that the OP is either some chaser or other fetishist getting off on the replies 🤔

I went to the discord once and it was super cliquey with the exception of ChipChipperson, mod of my favorite subreddit r/familyman
1 YaBoyStevieF 2019-08-14
It's a good mod! And a good sub! And a good show!

Discord is for punks, IRC is the way to go.
1 TrybalYT 2019-08-14

Unironically this. Now I only use discord for irl friends, and mainly for the group call function.
1 charming_tatum 2019-08-14
I went to the discord one time and they made me post a feet pic to prove I wasnt Ed, lmao
