CollabVM Discord: Difference between revisions

The '''[[CollabVM]] Discord''' (or '''CVMDSC''' for short) is the central place to talk about [[CollabVM]] and [[CollabVM]] [[Forkies|accessories]]. It has had a long and turbulent history, but in its current state, it's public and can be joined through the link on the CollabVM homepage. It is considered a community server as it is registered as one, therefore it takes advantage of special features like actual designated channels (announcement and rule channels), and others.

There were plenty of attempts at making CollabVM Discord servers before an official one was established. Some stayed up forever, the majority went inactive, and some are just completely gone. The firstA server to be permanently official was created by [[Vanilla|Novella]] in September of 2016, which gotwas transferred to Dartz and wasmade into declaredthe first official CollabVM Discord.

In the near-end of December 2018, the CollabVMfirst Discord server officiallydiscord closed down, due to some e-drama at the time. You could only enter with a private invite during this time. The server remained fairly small at the time, being less than 100 members.

In mid December 2019, after the aforementioned e-drama cooled off and the coast was clear, the server gotwas reopened, and was fairly active. However, on September 24, 2020, after what was one of the longest and most aggravating e-drama shitfests in CollabVM history, the server got unexpectedlywas terminated by discord for hacking.

It was even available as a public invite link on the CollabVM site itselfserver.

On October 31, 2020, a verification system was devisedinstituted 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. This made it very easy for the staff to lose track of things, asand people would only get verified once in a blue moon. It was also prone to constant shitposting, burying people who would potentially be of value to the server. This would persist until 2023, when the old verification system was decommissioned and replaced with a new, better verification system based on Ticket Tool, Double Counter and Gaius Cicereius.
