Admin edit to top-post the link: Join the Discord server here: discord.gg/BaVrnGGI pose this suggestion fully aware that there is an IRC server/channel associated with this forum and many of the senior members of this forum regularly chat there. Would there be any interest in having a UFO Discord server? I like Discord much more than IRC for several reasons: 1) I can easily connect to Discord via a web browser, which means it's easy for me to chat and read messages at work. 2) Chat is persistent, so someone could join a channel a read discussions which happened while they were offline. 3) Chat has text markup. 4) Chat supports images and web links. I'm not suggesting that real-time conversation move from IRC to Discord. What I'm asking is if there would be interest in an another ancillary real-time medium for forum members. It would be fun, for example, to be able to chat with others working on some puzzle activities (e.g., Cryptex Hunt or Mission Street Puzzles) in real-time.

I actively encourage the community to embrace all means of interaction.

I could set up a Discord server (anyone can), but I wouldn't want to do so in such a way that felt like I was stepping on anyone's toes.

I recently joined in a discord server for Simulacra Games and really liked it, although it is very quiet there now. I'm in.

I created a new Discord server and a couple of channels specific to (recently) active puzzle services. Stop by and say hello! discord.gg/BaVrnGGIf you have any suggestions or requests, please let me know -- nothing on the server (even the name) is immutable.
