    Discord bot selection and hosting

    Change of plans! I decided to enable Discord Community features on our server, which allows members to select their own roles. I may still consider choosing a Discord bot hosting plan for BibleBot, a Bible verse bot, in the future.

    Christian Gamers Alliance Vision Statement - A Draft

    I've long had it in my head and on my heart to write a vision statement for the CGA to concisely explain what we, as a community, seek to accomplish. I have pages of notes and threads dating back to 2007 to use as references points and I have good intentions, but focus and time are harder to...

    Article requires an account to read. :/ Here's an alternative link: https://gizmodo.com/researchers-dump-2-billion-scraped-discord-messages-online-2000605471 Scraping 2 billion Discord messages IS disturbing, but the greater concern, in my opinion, is the rumor that Discord is aiming to go...

    Discord bot selection and hosting

    This weekend will likely be very busy, but I'm hoping to dedicate some time to making a final decision on a Discord bot and hosting service. On a related note, I'm also considering Cybrancee as a candidate for hosting.

To ensure a reasonable balance of features and security, I plan to select an open source Discord bot and host the bot on...

As for location, I think most of our community members are in North America, though I imagine we have at...
