We already had like about three threads discussing the idea of an SG Discord and all of them have been rejected.

 

 

Edit: Here are some threads that deal with it.

Black Rain's post in the first one sums it up.

TeamSpeak gives us control, Discord does not.

 

Everything from having an a physical server, to being able to utilize addons, extremely in depth permissions, and also TeamSpeak tends to be much better for a gaming community that has players from all around the world. If SG was a small friend group I may support it but honestly it would become a problem that some of our players would receive terrible latency and all it'd end up doing is splitting up the community.

 

I will say if Discord increases in popularity for the coming year we should probably be willing & able to consider switching as I'm starting to notice more and more people using Discord for it's simplicity while TeamSpeak can be really intimidating to young kids & idiots a like.

Music bots, Anti-spam, AFK auto-kicks, Commands that let you visit last channel via. a bind, mass moving clients, and so.. so much more. I've seen some seriously cool shit done with TeamSpeak.

Pretty much all of that you can do in Discord with bots as well and I'm only saying pretty much because I'm not 100% about the last point, but I don't think we'd ever have a reason to use it anyway.

My point wasn't that Discord can't do those things.

 

My point was that there are tons of addons/plugins for TeamSpeak, where as whatever Discord comes with that's pretty much what you get. Even if we didn't have a reason to use any of those addons, the ability to use addons allows for much more versatility.

Maybe I'm missing your point but Discord also has alot of bots which add features to Discord channels the same as Teamspeak that has plugins.
