Hi. I hope you like the new redesign I put in, been wanting to do that for a while now.

If you haven't noticed, chat is pretty empty these days, and at this point its dead. There's rarely anyone in it. That's why I ask if we should keep the chat up or close it entirely, because I do have the option of doing so at any given moment. With chat gone, that can be big problem for people who want to communicate to others, but on the contrary I could replace it with the Discord that we have open, however that does open up various problems:

1. Trolls could get in easily, and Discord is much more susceptible to that kind of chaos since its always packed with others.

2. Select people would rather keep the Discord more private (However a separate "public" Discord could be made to substitute for that, but that would be discussion for another day)

3. Some people may not be comfortable with some of the channels in the Discord, which may cause unnecessary complaints.

And the biggest question you're probably asking is "What will happen to the chat mods?" To the active ones, they will be promoted to whichever side of the regular moderators suits them, whether it be Content or Discussion. To the inactive ones, that'll be the axe in their careers I'm afraid.

So, what do you think? Discuss it further in-depth if you wish to.

Should Chat be closed for its inactivity? Yes No
