Close discord suggestion channel

[Mikey]

There's a huge disparity between the discord suggestion channel and here in terms of volume, it would be better for the discord users to be directed to this forum instead.

Here here! It takes time and consideration to format a forum post, and is, IMO, far superior for discussion than DMs.

Chat is for 1:1, forums are for ideas shared and discussed among many.

Oh how I wish this were true.

But yeah I get the sentiment. I'm always interested in driving more forum activity. Those threads being called "forums" on Discord also makes easy confusion when someone just mentions "the forums". That being said I don't expect RW to just close it completely. It's up to us to help drive more traffic here!

Im in general not a fan of the closed selective nature of the chat used for KSA.

Having a discord in the first place was a mistake but that's a different conversation.

Yeah but it was made before the forums existed, it's hard to replace the discord now considering there is 50k members already

By that logic we would be still using IRC.
i think the " is discord a service that pairs well well with this project" is for another thread one could/should start.
