It's also pretty fun to get to know people who share a fondness for the same hobby a little better. That can't really be done here to a significant degree without risking getting into trouble for going off topic.
I'm confused. On the one hand, we want the freedom to go off-topic and yet on the other we want something more focused on lore then the larger discord channels. That... seems a bit at cross purposes...

I've had some experience with this kind of thing on another fan forum. What inevitably ended up happening was that no one ever really discussed the game the forum was about in the Discord channel and just discussed personal stuff. Meanwhile, any serious discussion about the game happened in the forum because that's what that medium was better for. Long-posts work far better on a forum then they ever will in Discord. And Lore tends towards long-posts a lot of the time.

I'm just wondering if that's the vibe people are getting from this (I know I am) and are thinking that no, they really don't want to help be mods of a channel that doesn't end up having to do a lot with what brought everyone together. They'd rather discuss lore... on a forum... that already just so happens to exist.
