[May 2022] Discord Monthly Update
May is finally here! As daylight is starting to last longer, we hope that you’re getting out there and touching some grass. Moving on to another month means another monthly update! We’ve got a few changes in store for you, so let’s hop straight to it.
Updates
Server updates
With growing demand from the community and running into recurring issues, we will be renaming the following channels:
#📟│member-content to #📟│self-promo
#🎭│literature-and-film to #🎭│literature-and-media
We’re so excited to announce that our server now has a new Forums channel type! This new type of channel allows us to host thriving discussions in our community organized into threads or “posts”. We will be testing out this new channel type for the following channels: #🎭│literature-and-media, #💟│passion, and our TGH Connect Clubs. At the moment, members are not allowed to create new posts however we’re exploring the idea of opening this permission up to members in the future. We would love to hear your feedback on this new feature, feel free to share your thoughts with us in #💬│general-lounge!

With our new Forums channel rollout, we’ll be adding a post or thread for music under our newly renamed #🎭│literature-and-media forums channel.

There doesn’t seem to be enough demand within our community to add this role. If there’s further demand, the team will revisit this in the future.

With our new Forums channel rollout, we’ll be adding a post or thread for visual art under our new #💟│passion forums channel.
Suggestion #87 - Add a select all function for clearing out seen alerts
This was targeted for the TGH App, we suggest to send your recommendation and feedback to appfeedback@thegamehers.com

This falls under our #📟│self-promo channel and must follow our channel guidelines in order to post.
Suggestion #89 - Create a channel for translators to discuss how to translate certain things from one language to another
There isn’t enough demand to warrant its own channel. We recommend using #❓︱career-general or #📋︱opportunities-board if you’re looking to hire a translator.

We hope you enjoy using the new Discord Forums channel, we really want to help improve our community as much as we can so that you can have the best member experience. Please don’t hesitate to let us know your thoughts either in the server or through the TGH ModMail! With that, see you online and happy gaming. 🎮
