New Discord Configuration Requirements

[itdontmatta 7192]

Hi everyone,

 

In accordance with crafting a safer community, Moderation & Administration have decided to institute some requirements for Discords that are directly affiliated with LotC.

 

As such, all directly-affiliated Discords must verify the following settings in their configurations:

 

Spoiler

 

 

“Direct affiliation” in this instance is:

1. A discord advertised by players or staff on either the LotC forums or Discord.

2. A discord that serves as a realm’s main Discord.

   1. Some realms use an official Discord that is not advertised in either our Discord or forums, but nonetheless are required to implement these settings.

 

Private groups and friend Discords are not subject to these requirements at this time, so long as they are not publicly advertised on our official platforms.

 

Thank you for helping us create a safer community.

Death to the Haenser slur as we know it.

 

This is a good idea though. Lots of minors seeing things they shouldn't be seeing in nation discords.

i dont own a discord but what happens if they do not follow these guidelines, it's not like you can enforce discord

If a player is caught to be saying naughty words from this point onwards in an official discord, both the discord server owner & the player in question will be held accountable.

 

edit: There are obviously exceptions if a server owner has done everything in their power to prevent this. Sometimes filters can be bypassed, and we understand that.

very nice, hopefully this will make the entire server and things associated with it safer.

What if the server owner was not aware of these words? I am sure most of us don't sit on discord all day, and big servers have so much chats. What happens then?

It's case-by-case, I know people get around filters. But if you have it enabled and provide proof of such like so:

 

That should work enough to show you did everything in your power to moderate the community. If you just have it off and turn it on last second, we'll know

HOWEVER, using overly cartoony and or enraging barbaric cursing, or just actual demonic curses are allowed.  As a cartoon watcher, a barbarian descendant, and a orthodox satanist I am glad this community is becoming more and more inclusive ❤️
