Discord!

As many of you noticed, I (finally) integrated a Discord server for Patreons!

For everyone who popped in right away— welcome in! Sorry it was kind of a spammy/chaotic mess to start. To everyone who trickles in since then, also welcome in! Still tidying it up and it’ll be a bit of a work in progress as we go, but we finally got one.

That said, if anyone has any channel suggestions or anything, let me know/drop it in the comment. I’m familiar with Discord on the casual user side, but less on the setting up a server for 100+ users. Bare with me!

TO JOIN:

You must connect your Patreon and Discord to join.
To do so, go Settings > More > Connected Apps and select Discord.
Here's a link to Patreon's how-to page on it!

Here’s the Discord landing page info, should cover most of everything to get started:

In order to keep the Discord a safe and welcoming space, there’s a few basic rules and guidelines:

This is an 18+ space
Per Patreon’s policy, you must be 18+ to be here (or have parental permission.)

Keep It Polite!
Embrace the idea of compassionate communication and strive toward collaboration over conflict. Everyone experiences stories differently and may be coming into the discussion from another direction, just be mindful and give one another the benefit of the doubt.

Hatred of any kind is never acceptable - not even ironically. This includes but is not limited to: discrimination of any kind, harassment, doxxing, bullying, name calling, or trolling.

No NSFW Content
To be clear, I have no issue with NSFW/adult content. This just isn’t the right place for it.

No Real World/Current Politics
Again, just not the right space for discussion about the current geopolitical climate.

Stay on Channel Topics
If you feel like the conversation is straying, head on over to #chase-the-breeze

THE CHANNELS:

#latest-page - The spot for talking about the most recent page/theories/etc. (Assume there’s story spoilers if you aren’t caught up.)

#world-discussion - More general discussion about the world of Oren’s Forge, fan art, so on.

#work-in-progress - Spot for WIPs/axillary art.

#chase-the-breeze - Casual channel for off-topic conversation.

SPOILERS!

If necessary, use the Discord spoiler tags outside of the #latest-page channel.
To tag spoilers, type “||” on either side OR highlight text, right click, and select “Mark as spoiler.”

The first Volume of Oren’s Forge (page 1-200) doesn’t require any kind of spoiler tags.

Breaking the rules will result in you being muted for a period of time determined by severity and infraction history.
