Hey everyone, if you don’t know what Discord is, here’s a short video that may help. It will help connect us in a new way. LAUNCH 🚀 April 15 for beta testers / April 20 for everyone!

Thank you to Katayamma for setting this up and Nosh for helping out with organizing and setting up / primary testing. If you’d like to beta test and help give feedback, please leave a comment below. Limiting it to about 25 people initially. You should download DISCORD on your phone (app). (Also looking for more moderators here — let me know if interested.)

Inside Discord - The Gaming Chat Platform That's Bigger Than Slack

Discord, a free chat app designed for gamers, has been rapidly growing since it launched in 2015. According to the company, it has 250 million user accounts, about the same as Fortnite, plus 14 million daily active users, which is more than business chat-app Slack. It allows users to chat privately in groups that cannot be discovered through searches. Although the company markets itself explicitly to gamers, it has servers devoted to everything from stock trading to meme sharing and fantasy football. Discord’s emphasis on privacy has attracted hate groups such as white supremacists who used the platform to organize the deadly 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Watch the video to get an inside look at Discord, and the story of its rapid growth. » Subscribe to CNBC: http://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC About CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Hey John! This sounds great :). If you would like any more testers, let me know. I own a Discord server myself for my World of Warcraft guild, as well as am a Moderator in another server so I know my way around Discord and it's Server Settings page quite well.

I'll try to keep an open mind, but I'll add my concerns that we're trying Discord because it's a trendy new thing and it'll end up segmenting and diluting your efforts. I do love the community aspect of it though and trying to bring everyone that follows your channels (not just Patreons) under a single umbrella. I wonder if building a website with content that you own (as opposed to using Discord's platform) would have the same effect? You could even open its doors for other contributors to write about Japan, share their stories and adventures, and have a forum that is openly searchable (again, as opposed to Discord's closed network). Sorry if my comment comes off as negative — it isn't —, I'm just trying to understand the reasons behind this. Having worked on Open Source projects for almost all my life, I know the power of having something publicly available that increases inclusivity rather than using platforms that absorb your content. Having said all that and having never tried Discord myself, I'd be more than open to give it a go as a beta tester!

I would love to Beta test.

Felt the same way until I finally used Discord. I feel voice services help build a strong community. People are less likely to be trolly when you can hear the other parsons voice. Team Speak sort of ruled this space for 10 years but it also forced you to subscribe to one community. Connecting and disconnecting to each community one at a time. What Discord offers is the ability to be connected to all your favorite communities. Platforms like Twitter, Imgur, and Reddit are about having a hub where you can subscribe to all your favorite communities without having to choose. I thunk building a web portal has the same failings as TS. They just aren’t utilized any more.

Hi John, Happy to help out if you need a beta tester.

I can throw my hat in Beta testing as well. I'm also down if you need another moderator as well. I work and live on the graveyard shift on the US east coast, basically go time for Japan. I'm thrilled at you joining Discord, I see it as another way to find out when you're streaming so we don't miss anything(among other stuff)

Would love to but my hours vary but if it’s ok with u I’m down with it
