On FurryLand there is a room for real talk, general chat, cozy room etc. So only people thst want takes a part in dumpster fire, but for me it's good, but sometimes I prefer FAF beacuse there are less people and for me it isn't bad, sometimes even better

I got warnings for really stupid shit there.

The more immediate chat is nice on Discord, but I like the threaded structure on a forum, and the larger avatars, signatures and profile pages on the forum let you know a little more about who you're talking to.
So I'm not sure I'd want to abandon the forum, more use the two side by side.

I like the structure of a forum better; the various threads; the way its easier to find out about people, and who you might relate to. (profiles, history of posts, avis, &c.) And I like the constant influx of new furs I can meet here: I've not noted nearly as big an influx of wholly new members, on Discord servers: it seems to be a lot more insular.

Also, I love the forum games section...and it's hard to do things like that on Discord. It may seem silly, but they tend to be a good way to break the ice, and have a few laughs. Then, there's writing longer posts and my slow typing, both hard on Discord, for me....here, it's a bit slower paced, and I seem to able to think more clearly. Often, I feel sorta out of place in Discord chats? As if they move too fast, or that I'm veering off topic? Hard to explain. I use it for one on one chat, but tend to feel pretty lost in most group chats...or, I forget who is who, as people often seem to change their usernames.

So while it is more immediate, I'll stick around here, and use Discord as an adjunct, but mostly to talk one on one, and maybe, to sniff out interest in RP ideas.

I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I don't enjoy the bots on Discord servers. Even the sillier interactions on here can get quite inventive if someone pokes things in that direction, while the repeated hug and boop commands on Discord get a bit wearing IMO.
Of course, this probably means anyone reading this is about to mob me with bot commands on Discord! Oops...

I've taken a look at Discord. Not really dived in yet, although I'll pop in and out occasionally. I definitely do prefer the forum structure though. Discord is obviously designed for gamers, people chatting while they concentrate on something else.

So if nobody minds I'd prefer to keep my trees and nest in here for the foreseeable. If anyone wants to join me in the branches you're all welcome.

I don't understand the bots. But when I do, I shall make an 'otter playing the harmonica' bot. He will pop up, and blare loud harmonica music, at sporadic intervals. And nobody will ever know why!

I stay away from drama as much as possible. And it sucks to be the center of drama, as we saw a week ago. Lifes too short for bullshit.
