Hello cubecrafters & discord users
a lot of you know about the channels and their purpose. #English is for English and #eggwars for eggwars. Etc. Though I happend to come across the following: there are a lot of channel specific rules that are unwritten. For example, you can post videos related to eggwars in #eggwars, while I was always told to keep links and videos to #media. You can't send gifs to #english because it contains a link, and you can speak any language in #java. All kinds of simple things that i, as a longer user of the discord server didn't even know about. Though it's "Common sense" according to @Hoshi
in my opinion channel specific rules should be written as new players would have no idea of those rules existing, and would risk getting warned, kicked or maybe even banned because of them breaking rules they have no idea existed.
benefits would be:
- less moderation work since rules are clearer
- chance of using a wrong channel becomes even smaller
- people won't have to ask stuff like whether they can speak a weird language in #java (for example) or not, because it's written down.
- less confusing
cons would be:
- I have no idea what cons adding some rules/information to the channel discription possibly could have.
even though it might be common sense, I don't see why adding this is bad. Just for the extremely dumb people like me.
thanks.
