I dislike using discord, and dead chat and plotting threads, or people using discords more than places where I'm willing to go makes me feel extremely out of place in an OOC community. If the discord chats themselves aren't carefully monitored by one or several people, they do get cliquey and troublesome pretty quickly. I also agree that my comments on relying on discord too much apply to all of this site's groups, not just Tanglewood, but I'm here for feedback on that one lmao.From a personal and staff point of view, I am going to hop on this and say I agree wholly. While I do have Discords listed as an alternate option and counted as ‘official’ for fast responses + chatting, it should never be our primary source of OOC interaction. Those without Discord will definitely feel left out.
IC, I've never really gotten many responses to my threads there and it's another thing that kind of kills a group for me. Seeing other threads get three or more posts in the time it takes for mine to get one makes me feel anxious and drains my muse for the character and group, so I think that's something that could be worked on.
Going to be honest though also, I have had to step in on the Discord for problems before, hence why I suggest on-site OOC interactions because it includes everyone.

Hiya! I'm Orion, Beasts of Beyond's administrator and owner. I play a few characters, which you can view by clicking on 'linked accounts' underneath my avatar or going to my profile. I am always open to plotting or chit-chatting with anyone who asks, so feel free to approach me at any time. Along with that, I am open to answering any questions about BoB. You can do either by sending me a message on-site or on our Discord! I look forward to roleplaying with all of you. ;^)For info on BoB's revamp, click here! Check out the guidebook too.
