The '''[[CollabVM]] Discord''' (or '''CVMDSC''' for short) is the central place to talk about [[CollabVM]] and [[CollabVM]] [[Forkies|accessories]]. It washas firsthad createda bylong [[Vanilla|Novella]] inand Septemberturbulent 2016history, but wasin laterits transferredcurrent tostate, [[Dartz]]it's public and madecan official.be Injoined through the near-endlink ofon Decemberthe 2018CollabVM duehomepage. toIt eDrama™,is theconsidered Discorda Servercommunity server as it is officiallyregistered closedas downone, andtherefore youit cantakes onlyadvantage enterof withspecial afeatures privatelike invite.actual designated channels (announcement and rule channels), and others.
 
After joining, you will need to get verified, which you can do so by clicking the button in #verification and following the instructions in your ticket. Keep in mind that you <b>have</b> to say your age and your CollabVM username (if applicable), or else you get kicked from the server.
The server remained fairly small, both servers being less than 100 members.
 
== History ==
Then in mid December 2019, the server reopened. Then on September 24th 2020, the Discord got terminated for hacking and the CollabVM Discord 2 was created, and then the server went public and people started joining it left and right. [http://computernewb.com/collab-vm/ You can join the server by going to CollabVM and then clicking the Discord link on the navbar]. On October 2020, a verification system was devised to keep people who don't comply with Rule #4 and other various undesirable entities out of the server. But in 2023, the old verification system was decommissioned and replaced with a new, better verification system based on a ticket bot. The reason why the old verification system was canned because it was hard to keep up with everything. Keep in mind that you <b>have</b> to say your age, or else you get kicked from the server.
It was first created by [[Vanilla|Novella]] in September of 2016, but was later transferred to [[Dartz]] and made official. Before it got transferred to Dartz (and a matter of fact, before Novella's server ever existed), there were plenty of alternate CollabVM Discord servers you could use. Some stayed up forever, some went inactive (most all of them did actually), and some are just completely gone.
 
In the near-end of December 2018, the CollabVM Discord server officially closed down, due to e-drama. You could only enter with a private invite during this time. The server remained fairly small at the time, being less than 100 members.
Currently there are almost over 800 members in the server.
 
In mid December 2019, after the aforementioned e-drama cooled off and the coast was clear, the server got reopened, and was fairly active. But however, on September 24, 2020, after a very long and aggravating series of events, the server got unexpectedly terminated for hacking. CollabVM Discord 2 was created as a result, which went fully public, and people started joining it left and right. It was even available as a public invite link on the CollabVM site itself.
 
On October 31, 2020, a verification system was devised to keep people who don't comply with Rule 4 and other various undesirable entities out of the server. This verification system consisted of a single channel with no privacy. It was very easy to lose track of things, and it was prone to constant shitposting until in 2023, the old verification system was decommissioned and replaced with a new, better verification system based on a ticket bot.
 
Currently, there are almost over 800 members in the server.
 
== Moderation ==
The Discord is moderated by a staff team which consists of the following people: [[Technoturnovers]], [[CHOCOLATEMAN]], [[Hildaboo]], [[modeco80]], [[User:Elijah|Elijah]], [[Mv|mv]], and [[User:MDMCK10|MDMCK10]].
 
'''Admins:'''
* [[Dartz]] (the one and only)
* [[Technoturnovers]]
* [[CHOCOLATEMAN]]
* [[modeco80]]
* [[DarkOK]]
* [[User:Elijah|Elijah]]
 
Additionally, the following people have admin permissions but are rarely/never active:
* [[Geodude]]
* [[Ctrl]]
 
'''Moderators:'''
* [[Mv|mv]]
* MDMCK10
* [[Spy]]
 
Admins have access to the [[Admin Panel]] and the exclusive admin channels, while moderators can log into the VMs as mods and have access to the moderator channel. Since Dartz is never online and only comes on once every blue moon, all of the decisions and moderation are done in a very anarchy-like manner by general consensus. Essentially, if everyone hates you, you get b&. And oh, you will never be admin. Ever.
=== Landing ===
; #announcements
: '''ANNOUNCEMENT CHANNEL.''' For when an admin wants to ping everyone for no reason about somesomething really important, that will get drowned out by dumbincessant shitshitposting.
; #rules
: '''RULES CHANNEL.''' The imaginary and unenforced rules of the Discord. Has more than 4 rules!
; #joins
: If you want to see what type of people join the Discord, then check that channel out. '''You're not goinggonna tolike enjoywhat it.you're Trustgonna mesee in there.'''
; #verification
: Although that channel is only viewable to non-verified members, it contains a button to open a ticket and some verification instructions. It used to be viewable as a read-only channel during the old verification system.
: The very first channel you enter to get verified in the server. Not too many people seem to get successfully verified though...
; #how-to-verify
: A specific channel only viewable to non-verified members that intends to guide one on how to properly get verified, that rarely gets read
; #updates-of-the-hub-of-git
: Where the internal Computernewb Gitea webhook lies. It currently tracks the CollabVM 3.0 repo, where all of the hard work and the development of the next generation of collaborative technology currently happens. Detailed commit messages describing important features can be seen there.
: Where the GitHub webhook for any and all commits and specific actions to <code>collab3</code> (and forks of it, most notably [[Yellows111|yellows111]]'s) and other official Computernewb repositories (previously did Gitea)
; #hotsex-123
: Throne of Youself? Long Answer.
; #dartboard
: A channel dedicated to storing of pinned messages by the Starboard bot. There is also the Pinned Messages in all of the channels, which is always full, thus why this channel was made.
; #support
: '''FORUM CHANNEL.''' The main support forum channel for CollabVM related help, such as getting a UserVM up and running and onadded the UserVM page, findingto the proper libraries to help with compiling collab-vm-server for their Linux distro, programming a CollabVM mock server or botroster, compiling [[collab-vm-server]] without incident, compiling an older version of [[collab-vm-server]] without being harassed into compiling a newer version, configuring a [[CollabNet]]-style VM network,/domain controller for use with your orVMs, configuring [[Whitelister]] to work with your VM network, and more. You will almost never find anyone who actually gets their problem fixed or anything done.
; Events
: '''Events channel.''' Self-explanatory.

Do note, that Batch, VBS and "visual"/blockno-code """programming languages""" are banned from discussion, as they do not programmingqualify as real languages), and the people that usually bring them up aren't exactly the brightest.

; #spam
: Post your high quality spam material here.
; #public-bots
: The (public) bots channel. Waste hours there messing around with the server's premier bot "NotSoBot", making dumb and stupid tags that don't even work half the time, and people will forget about it by the end of the month, or you could even make sophisticated and advanced tags that heavily use JavaScript, and other more nuanced parts of the NotSoBot tag system, which people will also forget about by the end of the month. You can also take advantage of other bots in the server, including but not limited to Assyst, EsmBot, and CollabVM Boundary Fucker, which can do a variety of wonderful and interesting things.
: Self-explanatory. Waste hours there entering NotSoBot/Assyst tag commands like "avatarroulette" or "tiktok" or "thewhat" or even "thedarts", or rather you could just caption some random trending Tenor GIF with some dumb text
 
=== archived ===

: The official annual CollabVM advent calendar for 2023 that would post a new [https://crustywindo.ws Crusty Windows] bootleg everyday up until the 24th of December.

; #verification-archive
: The old verification channel, where people would send their age, and wait for an admin to verify. It had no privacy and was very chaotic, and was prone to mods and memebers constant shitposting, and children begging to be verified every 20 minutes, before it was shuttered and replaced with the new ticket-based verification system.
; #support-archive
: The old support channel, before it changed to a forum channel.

== Roles ==
There are exactly 3 infraction (warning) roles in total:
 
; <div style="border-radius: 40px100px; width: 18px20px; background: rgb(163,138,138); user-select: none; touch-callout: none; display: inline-block;">&nbsp;</div> W1
; <div style="border-radius: 40px100px; width: 18px20px; background: rgb(209,131,131); user-select: none; touch-callout: none; display: inline-block;">&nbsp;</div> W2
; <div style="border-radius: 40px100px; width: 18px20px; background: rgb(199,91,91); user-select: none; touch-callout: none; display: inline-block;">&nbsp;</div> W3
 
After you have all of the infraction roles, you will end up getting a specific punishment. Usually, you'll get unverified or kicked, or banned if you've been really bad. You can sometimes get a second chance if you appeal, but depending on what you did, who you are, or the mood of the moderation team, it may not always work out well for you.
 
If you obtain W3, you lose your embed, reaction and external emote permissions. This does not happen for any other infraction role.
 
There exist infraction roles that can ban you from talking in certain channels, like these ones. The descriptions for these roles correspond to the channel it is supposed to hide from whoever has the role. In reality these don't work anymore and aren't given out.
