Discord what's the point?

Not after your country kick mine out of Euro 2020.

Jokes apart, sure why not.

If you’re playing against us in the football tournament Euro 2020 won’t be the only thing we kick you out off! :rofl:

You aready did, you kicked Portugal.

My Discord is way more active than our in-game guild/community chat. But only on our Alliance side, the Horde side is inactive. There’s a chicken and egg situation of, people would chat on an active Discord, but will not chat unless it is active. Takes some proactive members to get things goin!

When I want to chat to people from my guild I use whatsapp.

Ah yes
yes we did :smirk:

It depends on the guild. Some are social, some not.

Discord allows you to be on several servers at once. So maybe people from your guild are coming for raids and then they go to other discords and they’re talking there.

Oh wow Whatsapp!! Not heard people use that in ages outside of work situations.

This has way to many variables to even discuss
 it can have so many reasons why people are not talking. that said yeah finding a real talkactive guild these day is hard

It is a mixed bag, and honestly depends on the guild. I am in three guild’s discord, and all three of them have varied levels of communication: In one the general chat is kind of dead, but the progress guild channel is bursting. In another one every channel is semi-active, but there are days when there is near 0 activity on discord.

In my current Horde guild both discord and guild chat are relatively active, but this guild is pretty old now (formed during WOTLK times) and we have an application system in place so getting in isn’t as simple as to just request a random Ginvite.

From what I have seen there are a lot of people in bigger guilds who are either too shy, or just do not like voice communication at all. In one of the guild discords I am in during raids a good half the raiders have their mic turned off, while on the opposite end in my Horde guild non-GM/RL/Officer people do callouts at times during raids when it is needed.

I think it is partly the game’s evolution is what can be attributed to this: We have LFD for a good number of content while the open world is easily soloable 90% of the time. People do not really feel the need to communicate and ask for assistance, so they just avoid human interraction whenever possible.

You are even in our guild discord :hugs:
And i am not even going to look what idiocy today happened in there in the hundreds of new messages when i was at work :sweat_smile:

OP is in your Discord? Well this is rich!

I can talk differently. We had always social part going on even when it was not raiding day. Actually we talked more off days than on days. People making memes on players silly mistakes and so on. It’s probably that thing when right people get together. Also I know guild from my own nation to be even making summer real life events where they come together have fun outside.

What I can say is that people are less interested in the game, because in old times playing WoW was like living second life. If before WoW was like your wife or girlfriend, then now WoW has become callgirl that you can forget after deed is done.

Oh yeah, I am indeed there. Sadly I haven’t really been too active there. Too many discords, not enough time.

it’s convenient, for me anyway.

And there’s been time I’ve helped people I know who were stuck on covenant quest steps. They’d show me their screen via the whatsapp and I’d troubleshoot/guide them based on what i seen.

Every time I ask people about WhatsApp they look at me as if I’m talking about something from the Dark Ages.

These days I hear most from Netflix on WA :smile:
