We know the imminent G+ shutdown is lingering in the back of all our minds! Before we get sucked into the black hole that can be the holiday season, we would like to gather some intel on where and how our fans would like to transition this community.
Some of you may already use Discord or Reddit, but we know some people find those spaces difficult to navigate. That said, some people want to avoid using Facebook for gaming conversations. While there might not be a perfect space, we’d love a medium in which everyone feels comfortable free to engage, and able to easily reach out to us with questions about gameplay, mechanics, etc.
In addition to options like Discord or Facebook, we’re also considering opening up our own Magpie forums on magpiegames.com as we revamp the site over the next couple of months. Please let us know if that option seems of interest to you!
Let the polling commence! And, of course, more detailed feedback in the comments is always welcome 🙂
why not the combo of Magpie forum and Discord?
Definitely Magpie Forum.
Discord is more moment chat that discussion group.
You can navigate easily, also. Facebook group is pretty bad in that chapter.
I agree, discord and Forum
Magpie Forum, or a very strongly moderated Subreddit to counter the hardcore right-wing tendencies of reddit. Masks’ LGBT-friendliness would otherwise make it a target for all kinds of reddit hate groups.
Some groups have moved to MeWe.com, which seems to working out ok. Proboards is a good option for forums as well.
I love Discord but it’s not a replacement for a discussion medium. It’s a chat client. I can’t post something I need help with and come back a day later to read people’s responses.
