I'd prefer a subreddit to Discord, personally, but that's more because I'm already on Reddit (and feel that Discord can get a bit harder to follow along with at times, from what I've seen)

Our FG mod overlords should decide (and implement) Indeed; this is why I didn't set up the sub instead of talking about it. Not my place.

Well I went ahead and made the subreddit. It won't get used much hopefully anyway.
If anyone uses it to whine about being banned I'll kick 'em out. Only discussions about desperately wanting the site to come back up and speculations about why it went down will be allowed.

Only time it will be used.

Only discussions about desperately wanting the site to come back up and speculations about why it went down will be allowed. I’ve added this, so thanks for setting it up! I’ve never done Discord, so will wait on that one a bit.

I added a link to chopsen's discord on the subreddit, so people can all congregate wherever.

You are most welcome. I wouldn't do it for just anyone you know.

Can't access without the app and who's got time for that. I'll go get banned from the Discord instead

Discord is good for people that play games together as well though because of the voice channel. It will also be across all 3 platforms soon (and the switch in 25 years time).
Its a good thing for the community to have.

Discord is basically like whatsapp, perfect for a lifeboat. Very easy to keep up with.
People slagged it because it's nowhere near a good enough replacement for a forum.

Cross platform voice chat and discord is better quality than most in games.

Fair enough.
I've always used the PlayStation one tbh, never needed cross platform and it seems better than the in game ones.

Guessing this can be used as a general issues thread, rather than creating a brand new one.
Anyone else just get a message telling they were banned when trying to open the site? Seems fine now, but for a second I thought I had finally been found out for my many transgressions!

I must have missed when it happened (or maybe I was spared because of my steak joke last night) For future reference though, we do have a more recently updated general site issues thread: fontgeek.io/thread/64/sites-running-dog
