 Hello. Hello, hello. How's it going, Pilot? I'm doing well, and you? Good. I'm excited to talk about the potentials of Discord we've got in Section 2 and where we take reclaim a little bit into our edTech Discord, but then also what you could do with whatever server you possibly want to set up on your end, if you want to do that sort of thing. Yeah, I'm really excited for that. But I do want to ask you, Pilot, what kind of servers are you in and how long have you been on Discord itself? I've been on Discord. I mean, technically speaking, since like 2016 because my friend is like, no, you have to get on this platform. It's going to be really good. It's like, okay, I don't know anyone on here but you. So then I didn't really do anything with it for a long time. Then I think the big thing that I use Discord for right now is been a couple of years. When we went all remote in spring of 2020, I was the president for a club at my college that hosted weekly in-person TV, movie, sci-fi, and fantasy nights. So we would all get together on Friday night and we would have picked six shows and we would watch one episode from each show. It was just really nice to have a movie night with a pretty decent number of people that Friday night, fun with your friends, you go get some chicken tenders from the Student Center, whatever. And one of the big priorities was making sure that we could keep some semblance of that going because it was remarkably easy to make remote. You can do movie nights remotely over Zoom and over Discord very easily. So setting up a Discord server for everybody to join and keep contact and run event announcements through there. And then as time has gone on, I graduated, my friends have graduated, so we turned that server over to be, this is for the people who are currently at Carlton. And then we have a separate server that does essentially the same thing, but it's for alumni. Yeah. And so we host movie nights through Discord there. We do game nights sometimes, general look at I found this funny cat picture, things like that. Yeah, that's really cool. Yeah, I'm kind of in that same boat where movie nights started over the pandemic, where we just made the server and started sharing screens and hit play at the same time sort of deal. I don't remember the last time I was in, or like when I was in Discord the first time, like when I signed up, but I really got into Discord when Among Us became really big as a game back in like the summer of 2020 or 2021. 2020, I think, yeah. Yeah, so a lot of my friends and I would just jump on a Discord voice call and just play Among Us together for hours and hours, it was really fun. And it's actually the main point of communication that my fiance and I have together. We don't, like we have separate, he has an Android, I have an iPhone, so we're on separate platforms completely. So we found Discord is like the easiest, most consistent one for us to communicate back and forth with. So if I need like him to pick something up at the store when he's at the office, he'll be like, hey, like I'm on Discord, I'm not like messaging him or texting him. So it's kind of funny how much it's like evolved in the last couple of years to be like main point of conversation or main point of communication. And not only that, but like with the reclaimed Discord server has been really cool. I'm also in a statewide Discord server for Virginia. Doesn't have everybody in it, but it's a good community of people around my age. So that's been really fun to kind of get to know people like in my area or even across the state too. So it's been pretty fun. It's really cool. Maybe I should join one of those. Yeah, it's amazing to see like how many servers you can, can be in like some of the streamers that I follow too, like they each have their own Discord server and like the communication. There's also like some arts and crafts ones I'm in too. It's crazy, but there is tons and tons of options with this. So we're kind of going to talk through the different types of servers you can create or kind of start thinking through on your ends. Like what is something that you can maybe use to incorporate in your Discord server? We're going to go through some essential bots on like what you need, what you want to set up when you're initially creating your server to help with role management and user management to keep your server safe online. And then again, we'll talk through some of the different events and like how you can kind of set those up and even some platforms you can use Discord Boisan as well. And then into some server organization with like how you want to organize your channels and stuff and we'll kind of take a peek at the Discord server for Reclame hosting the tech one as we can kind of go through all of those. So, and Shannon Lauren have probably touched on this a little bit thinking about specifically the thought that's gone into some of the servers that Reclame has had over the years, but we want to go into that and then also expand that to be like you're talking about, there's lots of other things as you and I have shown that Discord can do a lot of stuff. It's very flexible, so. Yeah, absolutely. That's a good point. We can kind of go into how Reclame uses that and then like some of the bots to like then move into the other ones that you can use on that side. So I've got my screen shared here with just the Reclame hosting ed tech server. You can see we've got the announcements channel where Taylor's announcing all of the live streams especially with the message on the Reclame cloud and some general announcements like we're hiring at Reclame and Reclame open which is coming in June which is all super fun. And then just some more general like the guidelines and any help channels you might have. This is under information. So when you're creating your channel you can set these different categories and then organize the channels into the categories themselves to help the flow of your server start. You kind of can dictate like how you want users to be introduced into the server and all of that sort of fun stuff. So you can see the guidelines here which every server should set up when they're creating the new one because that really helps kind of set the tone and the mood for the server itself. Also gives you a reason to kind of just maintain I don't know how to say it just make sure that everybody is behaving correctly within the server on that side. It gives a frame of reference. It means you're not guessing which is nice. Exactly, so Lauren did a wonderful job with this guidelines section. So we've got all of those sort of helpful things and then we've got our introductions where we can introduce any new or the any new member has an option to introduce themselves to say hello or give a little bio about themselves. So you'll see us periodically in here just saying hello, welcome and all of that stuff. So we can see like an entry point for the user who's accepted the terms of service and all of that stuff. They'll get a little message here saying hello, welcome and then we can kind of continue the conversation. Yeah, we wanted to have like a general discussion section for some topics that may be ongoing conversations because we do have specific event channels for like our community chats and even for this Discord community conversations. So those can tend to be specific topics. So we wanted to have that general idea so that if anybody had like a conversation they wanted to have that didn't fall into any of our events we could keep the conversation going and keep the Discord server and community going outside of just our events. So we've got like our free form which is kind of like the water cooler channel. Literally anybody can talk about what they want within a tech world and their community itself. Building the ship is kind of interesting. We kind of thought that this would be cool to have suggestions on the server and it's kind of turned into like how people are incorporating their tools that they've seen with that tech into their curriculum too. So the conversation here with like Ed Beck and the MailChimp. Yeah. And yeah, so that's been pretty cool. And like even ghost conversations and threads there. Yeah, just talking about like projects that are underway and what we're thinking, what other people are thinking as they make the choices that might have to change later but you know. Yeah, absolutely. We also utilize RSS feeds and different thoughts to pull in blog posts. Taylor has a way like you can subscribe to the RSS feed and then your blog posts can be pulled into the Discord server. I think there's a specific feed that you submit your blogs RSS feed to and then that feed pulls from everybody and then pushes it here. Yeah, I believe so, yeah. With a specific Discord bot, we pull in our tweets from Twitter and even I wonder if we can even get away from Macedon to set up any pull in here right now that Macedon's more popular. Macedon definitely has one for Slack at least. I'd be surprised if there isn't, at least in development something for Discord. That would be really cool though one day. So I'm gonna put that in the chat and see if we can find something for Macedon if we want to. We also pull in our community forums. Yeah, so if anybody has, or is posting questions on our forums itself, we put the posts come into the Discord for everybody to see. So then that way you can we can kind of, yeah, exactly. Conversations are happening. Yeah, so then we've got our specific events on that side. So we've got our community chats. We most recently just had domains 201 happen. So we had this channel. This channel was very lively. That was last week or the week before, which is crazy to think about. And then we had our OBS shoot. The OBS was a flex course a couple of weeks ago. We're recording this on a Monday and my Monday vibes are happening. It's Monday morning too. It's not just Monday. So we've got all of those. We do keep these open for folks. So if the conversation continues, they can happen in the events like the Gravity Forms one. We had set up still going, which is super cool. We also had the Domains Pen Pals section. That was really helpful because the conversation split off into these different categories surrounding like Domain of One Zone or WordPress Multisite. So we set up its own category there. And then the different voice channels we've got as well for any voice categories. And then a lot of times the end user won't see this but we've got our meta section, which is great for admins. Yeah, behind the scenes. So we have this all set up for specific reclaim only sections. So we've got just like little reminders of what we need to do for the 201 session. Like Amanda was testing out time stamps and stuff like that. So we can kind of use that as a test space for us that doesn't actually notify the user that we sent a message, which is really cool. Yeah. And then we can even see like Lauren was working on the link for the Reclim Open Announcements and all of that stuff. And then we get, I'll do quick peek in the Action Log as a bot we'll kind of talk about in the E6. Yeah, so we use this to kind of give a feed of like who joins the server and it accepted the rules and all of that good stuff. So we've got those. And then if we were hosting any events that required more than one voice channel, we've got those set up that we can shift around into the specific events accordingly. It's always good to have more than one voice channel if you need to and Discord defaults to creating one text channel and one default channel when you create a new server. So you'll always have one. You can always create more if you need to on that side. Anything in here you wanted to look up, Violet? I think this just about covers things. I'm trying to think if there's anything in particular. I mean, this really covers sort of what we were thinking in regards to the Reclaim at Tech Discord and how what we thought would be needed, what we thought would be useful, what has sort of become useful as time has gone on. But, just, the main thing is we did pattern it. I say we. I played enthusiastic moral support to the people who built this on, Reclaim's been using Discord for events for several years now. And again, this is something that Jim and Lauren will talk about, have talked about. Time is a little fuzzy because we're recording this, but that this is patterned on work that Reclaim has done before. And I don't think to the best of my knowledge that this is built using a specific template, but there are templates that you can use if you have an idea of something and you want to sort of build off of that. If you need jumping off point or basically you said, yeah, they start you off with one text channel, one voice channel, maybe two. They start you off with, but if you don't want to start off with just one or two, that's what the templates are for. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, so I kind of wanted to go through and show what templates look like on Discord with an s.com. That's a really cool resource to use if you're starting out working through getting a server set up for whatever you want to do on that side. So I went ahead and created my own server. It's MFiero95 server here, and it's got the one general text channel and then the one general voice channel. I am also going to, you can go through these particular suggestions that Discord gives you about like sending your first message, inviting friends to a server and that sort of thing, but I want the server to be a little bit more robust before I invite people. So I am going to stop sharing my screen for just one second and I'm going to share Chrome so we can look at a Discord templates on Discord. Let me get that added back to our screen. And discord.com has a ton of sort of templates that you can use to create any kind of Discord server you want. You can do a gaming one specific to say like Fortnite or Sons of the Forest or whatever game you want to create, Dungeons and Dragons, literally anything. You can set up a server for that. It's helpful for like wish chat or anything like that. You can even go into coding. Like if you are like looking at Node.js or Python coding, you can find a server or create one yourself for those. Literally any topic you can think of, there's a Discord server for it, which is really cool to see on that side. So I just found this kind of cute Easter template because Easter is coming up this weekend. So it was kind of cool to see. So I wanted to create a template or see if I could create a server for this using a template here. So what I'm going to do is set this up on an existing server and then I'm gonna invite the bot. It's gonna like, you're not gonna see this. It's just gonna ask you to go from there. Let me see. Okay, cool. So Discord uses a bot that lets you import content. So I have to give permission to my server to let the bot go through and import all of the channels. So if I go to continue, I'm just gonna authorize all roles and then confirm I'm a human, let that go through. And then it authorized everything. So now I'm going to share my Discord window and then we can see a new message. That template is here. The template bot has arrived. So I'm going to, thanks, Pilate, adding that back into that. I've got that set up going to, no, I actually don't know. We're troubleshooting on the fly. I thought this would just import everything, but we are going to live demo. Yeah, we're gonna use, we're gonna do use, use templates. And then I'm going to grab the code for the server or the template name. Let me get that all going. Yeah, sorry about this. We're good. We're good. Let's see if this works. Oh, and then yeah, you can import channels. See if that works. Okay, let's continue, continue. Uh-oh, there we go. Just taking a second to populate. Yeah, you can just see all of these populate which is super cool. And you know what the greatest thing in the world is live demo on a recording and everything just goes dark. Yeah. I gave me a scare for a second. I was like, oh my goodness. What have we done? Yeah. I mean, there's nothing in the server anyway. So it wasn't anything important. That's true. But it's still kind of scary. But this is actually really cool to see like everything kind of pulled through. Yeah. And I like how they used emojis to organize the account, the channels and all of that sort of stuff. So yeah. I find emojis in channel names to be just very charming. Yeah. It's super cool. Okay, I think we're good. That's all finished. And you can see some people have different channel types for even their voice channels. So if someone wanted to keep a voice on you can just kind of go away from keyboard and stay in the voice channel if you wanted to and all of that. So this gives you a good base to work through setting up any rules, getting announcements, stars or boosting the server. So the paid version of Discord is really interesting and that's definitely for another conversation and all the cool features that you can work through on this. So the template side is really, like I'm actually blown away by how cool the section was and how easy it was to grab the ID from there. Yeah. And how you can definitely just say, you know what, I don't need the, I guess that's quote of the day, QOTD. I'm not sure what that is. Question of the day. Question of the day. Yeah, so we can kind of move into the bots at this point too. Like there's a specific bot. I particularly use it in that Virginia server I was talking about. But the community puts in a whole bunch of questions. They can submit questions to kind of go through. It's kind of like the DS106 daily create kind of bank where people have submitted ideas for that. And so every day we get a message about like 9 a.m. our time to say, hey, here's the question. Like today was like, if you had a candle that smelled like anything in the world, what would you want? What kind of candle would you want to smell? And so it's been kind of interesting to see that conversation kind of take part. Like I was like, I would really like a campfire smelling candle or smores would be really cool. Like now that's now we're moving into summer. So the question of the day is really cool. But all of these channels are kind of geared towards a bot called Carl. Carl Bot, that is a really good tool to have set up on your server itself or user management. Even onboarding for user roles and all of that good stuff. And it's really self-serving too, where you can set up specific rules for folks to agree to when they sign on and agree to like any rules or terms of service you have set up. They can then go in and read through different roles and react to those with an emoji to assign them on there. And so you could even do this like for your user pronouns, your gaming. So like if you were, I'm gonna use the Fortnite category for the example, but like if you were someone playing to play through a round of trios. So with two other people, so a three-person group, you can use an emoji to assign yourself to the trios role. And then whenever you're ready to play, you can just like message the trios channel or something like that. Like you can have different setups where you can give people different permissions to different channels. So like if someone wanted to play duos with one other person instead of trios, they wouldn't see the trios channel. They would assign themselves the duos role and then on that side, like it can kind of help with the segments on that side for the different channels. So Carlebot is like very, very popular within the Discord community of getting all of that set up. So it's not uncommon to see that across multiple servers from here. It also does a lot of automations. So like if someone does violate your term to service or is being kind of rude or not the vibe that you wanted within the community itself, you can warn them and then ultimately use them to ban from the server if needed on that side. So you can see kind of in the screenshot of like a warning within Carlebot too. And then they also have the permissions where you can kind of get granular with it. And like you can kind of, you can create as many roles as you want or specific permissions as well. Yeah, my, I've definitely seen Carlebot in some of the servers that I've been in and that I've been in. And I wasn't, I was just participating. So I actually don't know how much work Carlebot was doing behind the scenes, but it's always crazy to me how much some of these bots are just really capable of. My experience is more with YagPDB, which is like YAML. It's yet another general purpose Discord bot, which is very silly, but YagPDB can do some of the auto role things that Carlebot can do. And it also has some fun, like, I think Carlebot has like a little magic eight ball figure feature or something like that. That they're just, they do so many different things and it's crazy and very fun. Yeah, absolutely. I love that he's a little turtle. He's a little turtle throughout it too, yeah. And then there's also the little community building with the stars that are like highlight star emojis. Like you can react to a message, like if everybody likes it or as a like or something like that. And then Carl will promote it if, yes, as a starboard, which is kind of cool on that side. Yeah, so Carlebot is definitely a good option. You can use stuff for reminders too. So like a reminder that if there's like a 15 minute for like something happening coming up. Yeah, exactly. So you can like designate those. That's super cool. We use MEE6 throughout Discord for ours. That is the message you saw in like the action log section that shows when the user joins the server and all of that stuff. So that's really helpful for administrator roles because that does also let you send like a welcome message to the user when they join or set up a command for whatever they need on that side. So you can really customize a ton with this, which is super cool. I also think MEE6 also lets us use the roles in particular so we can set like if this is a specific domain of one's own, side of things there. So we've got that. Also, here's a little glimpse at the Yag PDB bot website. I'll go through some of the features. Again, they can self assign the roles like Carl bot could. Yag PDB is not showing on your screen. You're still in PDB 6. Oh, let me, yeah, thank you on sharing different tabs. So the self assignable roles, auto mods, commands and all of that good stuff. And then even catfacts too, which is, I think that's pretty cool. The catfacts one is real fun and it's also a really good way to derail the conversation very fast. So funny. Yeah, like even I use emojis in particular to like kind of do that too. So you can have like different custom ones, which is super fun to do. On that side of Discord. So we can do, I can give us a little view of what that looks like in our Discord because we didn't actually go through that, but that would be really interesting to show. So we've got a couple of custom emojis. Let me click into mine. I've got my Discord channels servers organized into like work and then fun stuff. So that's really, really cool if you wanted to like move your server in so I can move this into Reclaim or leave this out if I wanted to on that one. But you can also create your own emojis back to that sort of conversation. So you can see like what's used on our server. So I've got a plus one. Like if you wanted to vote up someone's posts or comments, we use the live one a ton for when we premiere our different flex courses and recordings and all of that. We've got a Reclaim Cloud, the ShakeFist baby. That's a running meme within Reclaim. And then of course our Reclaim logo. It's always super fun. And if I scroll through, you can see some more. We've got a Terminal, Be Kind, Reclaim, Sticker. C-Panel. Yeah, C-Panel, HTML. Our OG Reclaim logo. The Triangle one's PeerTube. And PeerTube too. Yeah, we've got a ton. And even our StreamYard, which is what we're recording in. StreamYard is our logo. And we've got a ton of different ones for different servers that we're in. So, and if you're using Nitro, you can use the custom emojis from different people in any server across Discord, which is kind of cool. Not many people know that there. So, we've got all of those. I know people who have Nitro, who have a server that is literally just them, it's only theirs, so that they can load up on custom emojis and use them wherever they want, without having to get them uploaded to the communities that they're in, which is very funny to me. Yeah, that's really funny. Yeah, and Discord even sends out packs of free emojis sometimes like around their anniversary or whenever they do their like spring events or fall events. They had one over Christmas this year that was like a little penguin in an ice cube and it was cute. So, I was using that for a little while there. So, you can even take your community a little bit further by making those little emojis there. On that side. So, once you have your server set up, what do we do? We can hold events and stuff like that or did you have more bots to talk through pilot actually? Oh, one second. Pilot, you're on mute. I'm muted. I'm thoroughly muted. I'm not allowed to do myself for 30 seconds. That's great. No, the only thing I was gonna say was just that there's so many bots. We've just gotten into a couple of like the really powerful overarching ones but there's a lot that can do a lot of really specific things and we can put, we've had banners, we can put some links in the chat as well. There's a whole world out there basically. Yeah, absolutely. And let us know if you guys have any that you, any Discord servers that you've been using and like what kind of fun stuff that they've done that's kind of stood out to you there because it's always really cool to see and talk through what everybody does on that side. Yeah. Yeah, so once you have your server set up, you just let the conversation go at that point and invite your friends and other people in the community that you're working with with like a knitting server or something like that and just kind of see where it goes but then you can also hold your own events like pilot, you were talking about the movies with your college friends. That is super fun to do. Discord also introduced what they call activities and you can play games with your friends on Discord servers, which is super, super fun. Totally kind of my style. Yeah, so you could do one of the most popular ones that I think everybody has played who does like their own virtual thing, virtual game night is called Gartik phone. Gartik phone. Yeah, that's so fun. You draw out what the phrase is and have everybody kind of guess. It's kind of like visual telephone, which is super cool. It's just really, really, and it gets really silly, really fast. It's very fun. Yeah, absolutely. I also like equated to illustrations too. If you wanted to do that, that's really fun for in-person game nights. You can also do card games with folks too. A lot of people host like poker nights. Oh yeah, and all of that. And then there's like a watch party aspect where one person is hosting the movie and then everybody else can watch at the same time. So you're no longer like timing, clicking play between each other on the other end of the desktop between the screens and all of that, which is super fun. Yeah. There. So we've got those. You can even play them on mobile too, which is really interesting. Like most of these we've talked about, you can do like on desktop, but like Discord itself is really mobile. So most of the time I'm talking to my fiance or the other groups that I'm in on my phone, like I'm not really even using the desktop app. Plus I'm sitting in front of my computer. I don't usually do events on mobile just because I think, I don't know. The screen is so much smaller. It feels harder to participate, but just the ability to Discord on mobile is just really nice. It's a good interface and it's really convenient. Absolutely. I am also just totally blown away by the fact that like even if I'm not personally using functionality, the fact that you can is wild. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, that's really, really cool for sure. So we've done that with our previous Reclaim Events where we've done like a speaker sort of scenario where we've had like panels and even just general voice chats within our Discord server for those voice chats and streaming sort of scenarios where people can share their slides and stuff like that, which is really fun. And to even get into the more nitty gritty, you can use the roles that you've created within your server to allow people to RSVP. Yes. And then using like the Carl bot or the yet another Discord bot that the pilot was talking about to alert those specific roles to those who RSVP are using roles without using an everyone ping to the whole server. That was really big for just making that was the ability to say like, hey, if you want to get notified when we're doing a movie night or a game night, different things, react to this, Yag PDB will give you a role. And then when it's movie night, we will ping people who want to be told that it's movie night. That's it. If you just want to be here for the memes, if you just want to be here for game night, then you're not going to get hit with the add everybody ping because you specifically told us what you wanted to do. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Everyone paying is really helpful for like server wide announcements, but it can get really like, I've seen it go downhill where like people start using the everyone tag like every message and it's not fun. So the everyone ping is like, is use or I would recommend it fairly. I think there might be a way to lock it down so that only people with a particular role permissions can use the add everyone ping, which I've not ever had to do. And I sincerely hope I never have to, but I can imagine in, because some discords get just really, really big. Yeah. I can imagine just doing it as a precautionary measure, honestly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah, some of the gaming ones that I'm in are like thousands of members, which is crazy. Crazy, crazy. Cool. So we've got those movie nights games to play and then discords also been branching out into using different platforms for their voice chat. So if you're working, if you're playing on like a PlayStation or an Xbox and you're playing a game, but you want to talk to friends, you can even use discord to talk to them from the PlayStation. You don't have to sign into discord from your phone and like join in on the voice chat. I have never personally worked on that yet or use that yet just because it's so new. But from what I've heard, it's like really, really fun to be able to like continue using discord across platforms. That sounds really nice. I also have not done that. I don't have a console, so I wouldn't be able to hook that up. But I know that I have friends who are, I think that the ability to be streaming, probably they can stream, right? If discord's doing that offer on that platform as well. Yeah, I think you can, but I'm not sure where it is yet on that. It could be still in beta on that side, but definitely the voice channel or voice chat stuff. But I think yeah, just the ability to hook in while you're on your console is gonna be really big. People are gonna like that. For sure. Awesome, so we've got those two. Yeah, just checking server organization. We kind of went through all of that with the reclaim one. We've got the import side. Yeah. Discord actually has some specific features that I keep going, well, I don't use this. And it's because my use case is like, here's a group of like 30 people from college. You don't need all the bells and whistles, but discord actually has some stuff that reclaim makes good use of for the events organization and hosting. That in our at Tech Discord, we have sort of, I guess event announcements, there's a little channel that's just for the events and each one has its own sort of little window with the description and the time and you can RSVP. And so you can put up a little banner. And so it's very nice. It's very stylish, it's very slick and it's probably a lot more informative than the way that we tend to run things. But yes, exactly. So yeah, so in fact, we've time stamped ourselves. You can see when we're recording. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, so when this premieres, session one of building community with Discord, with Discord has already premiered on that side. But you can even just see kind of like the description of the event you can click in and it'll show like more and more detailed information. And then you can say that you're interested to get notifications on the event itself. Even share the link to the event if you want to. And then see who's interested and all of that fun stuff there. You can even add it to your own calendar if you wanted to. You can export to calendars or like download to like Google, Apple calendar or whatever you wanna do. Okay, super cool. And then even see where the location is. So since most of ours are virtual events, we just link to the link of the website itself and even just the watch link. So that's super cool. Yeah, I believe you can also make it so that particular events are for people with particular roles. So in that way of, I mean, I suppose you could say, all movie nights are visible to everybody, but will only ping you if you have the movie night role. But you could also say, yeah, you won't even see the event announcements if you don't grab it because you didn't want it, so. Yeah, exactly. On that side, so that's pretty cool. Within the guidelines, we even use pronoun picker. That's a good one too. That kind of shows like this auto assign role where you can pick whichever you would like there. Oh, cool. Well, anything else you wanted to touch on, Tyler? I was reaching the end of my stream. Yeah, I think that just about covers the whole of it. I guess the big thing to emphasize is that we've sort of touched on the, and you've said this multiple times, so it's not anything new, but just we've touched on like here are the MISIX and Carl Bot and Yag PDB, here are some sort of very heavy lifting technical stuff. Here are the templates that they, there are lots of different types. There are lots of different types of bots and templates. So just the biggest thing to keep in mind is that you can use Discord for really anything. So there's, and I think we've done a pretty good job. You're talking about just that sort of fun social state of Virginia, the question of the day type thing. We've done a pretty good job showcasing several different angles. There's more. There's even more angles. If there's a hobby that you're interested in, there's definitely a Discord for it. It's, there's just a shocking amount of flexibility going on, particularly with all of the bots and the templates because people keep extending the platform to make it easier to do and bring in that functionality that they need. So. Yeah, absolutely. So whether you're like the hobbies, even like a class level, like if you were just wanting to set up a Discord server for your class, like for the specific semester you're teaching or even just to kind of keep track of like, like if you're a faculty advisor for students, like you can even set up a Discord for your students too. And Discord makes it really easy to get started. So if you're unsure of where to go, literally just create the server and then the Discord bots will help you get started creating channels, doing a lot of the behind the scenes administrator work for that is really helpful to assign the roles to everybody and then like that organization. And then once you have the organization, you can use those fun stuff like the question of the day. Cat facts. Yeah, cat facts, the stars to kind of just create the community that you wanna build from there. Yeah, Starboard is really fun. Starboard is like, I think the documentation talks about it like, like your mom pinning your artwork on the fridge. Yeah, that's really cool. Yeah, people just react to a particular message with a star and then Carl bot goes, all right, let's put it on the Starboard. We're gonna just sort of show it off in this particular channel. It's really, it's just really fun. Yeah, so we've found Discord has been really helpful within our community too, within a tech spear. So it provides like a good space for everybody to continue communicating and like even just bounce ideas off each other. So hopefully this session gives you some good ideas on how to start creating your own community on Discord. And as we continue on throughout the month too, I think that this is really cool that we're able to even like turn a flex course into talking about how we manage our flex course like through Discord and all of that sort of stuff. Metaflex course. Yeah, the Metaflex course, so awesome. Well, thank you, Pilot. I'm glad we got to talk about all of this and keep the conversation going and we'll add resources and let us know if you have any questions about specific things but we will catch you all in the next session. We end Discord, bye-bye.
