Welcome to videogames, this is intended to be a catch all community for anything videogames. While i am sure other communities will pop up about specific games, this one will always be all encompassing as a general discussion/media sharing board. I plan on making a banner and a logo to start out with, however I suck at things like that so it might take a while. I hope to grow this and make it a place that thrives!

    Nice one! I think this small server needs more general communities for the time being - there’s a risk of too many communities for too few people. It’s something I remember from an article about Discord, which can really suffer from that problem. I’d make a general/chat community were it not for the fact I’d have to moderate it. In the mean time I might post something to this community later.

      Discord definitely had this problem. I helped some streamers set up their discords and usually the problem was a bunch of channels that sound like a good idea but get one post a week usually unrelated to the topic. Focusing content into a few channels is also much, much easier to keep an eye on.

        I always think back to this article. This bit is especially true:

        first, even finding out where the discussion is happening is difficult, because channels are opaque; discord doesn’t have any sort of “this channel is home to 50% of the server’s activity” or “10 people messaged this channel in the last few hours” indicator, so you have to go through each one individually and check.

        For me it quickly becomes overwhelming and I stop checking in on discords. But I’m getting off topic here.
