Hey there, would always settle for the complete details, first may I hear of the nature of these rules from the other Discord, and this certain other websites name.

In order to help you and ensure the Discord is best for fans of Seraph of the End, there would what I hope would be welcome input on what could make the Discord better for those taking part. Would also be interested in what rules, if any, your Discord would have for everyone, as well as attitudes to certain conduct. Of course we are going to have a positive, friendly and working connection so it is important we get to the fine details.

Regarding these rules you came across, just to contemplate it, is it necessarily a bad thing to re-do the channel layout meant for much larger servers? Presumably you would want a much larger audience taking part, and design options are open to altering if that makes things nicer?

Do fully trust you know what works best, but if I, someone on the wiki or anyone else stated something along the lines of “perhaps the Discord could be better if this were done”, would that be helpful advice you would consider?

Regarding people having administrative permissions on Discord, it may take some discussing but there must not be any mistrust between you. Ideally anyone who can help maintain the Discord, through different time zones as well, who can guide and improve it should be granted administrative permissions, you can never have too many able people.

Concerns of a takeover, having the server marred and similar should be replaced with feelings that you are sure there are people there to help. Similarly granting these mod positions may be considered generous to some, but a mindset that focuses on the more people able to help the Discord, this is preferable. Don’t think this should be dismissed as unrealistic, is there a better view?

Ideally people should place Seraph of the End itself first, all the content to discuss, theories and announcing the latest manga release and such. No need to be put off by the temperament of others, large egos about having a large server and such. Doesn’t matter so long as the Discord can remain and users taking part are content to discuss the series.

We felt that it would be too detrimental to the community that we have grown, and that it was just not worth it With this one, would you mind explaining how? Like were there restrictions on what could be talked about (are there frameworks for what can be discussed on the Discord you are on?) and what did other members make of the merge with the other Discord?

It is nice to hear you have gained new members; the more areas where people may take part in Seraph of the End materials the better after all. Yet Discords, whether through mismanagement or inactivity, maybe their very nature, come across as prone to being unable to maintain themselves (inactive servers with a couple of hundred inactive members did not sound too promising) and outright failing. This is not meant to sound critical, unfortunately it is a pressing concern that we need to address.

To summarise I need a link to this other Discord and the site it is aligned with, if one large Discord were merged, what would it look like and what would be the guidelines for it (have some suggestions if they would be helpful). Would you be prepared to work with this other Discord, indeed any others with moderators not suspicious of one another but all working to extend the life of the Discord and ensure it truly lives up to the goal of being an exciting and fun community for people.

Remember we are all representing Seraph of the End, it comes down to fans since they realise why Seraph of the End is the best series ever and warrants nothing but love and adoration.
