Happy to announce I've made it as a Top Rated Seller on
@fiverr.bsky.social ! It's been an amazing journey and I hope to keep offering "top rated" Discord community management services for years to come.

A helpful Discord user informed me that changing your server's vanity URL requires you to re-enter a 2FA code to confirm. Definitely a good security measure against compromised accounts!

Discord has been giving out one week of free Discord nitro to members without it. Don't worry, it's not a scam, and you won't be charged after the trial period either! Looks like they're just trying to get people hooked. If you haven't had nitro before, what do you think?

Looks like MEE6 is basically fully Premium now... At this point, they shouldn't even bother with the comparison lol.

For what it's worth, I'd recommend Dyno, Sapphire, or Carlbot as free alternatives to MEE6, and if you need leveling specifically something like Lurkr or Arcane

Fantastic event on the @smcmg.bsky.social Discord server with @eliothong.bsky.social ! Learned a lot about how to present a resume in an impactful way in the community management space. Thanks for your time Eliot!

Lol I'm crying what even is this

While it's no substitute for a proper modmail or ticket solution, it's a great method to use in a pinch that doesn't rely on any third party tooling. If you need help setting it up or any other part of your server, reach out to me and I'd be happy to talk!

The next question was how to prevent members from pinging non-staff into threads. Fortunately, Discord's native automod performs an admiral job here. Blacklist user and role pings, whitelist all channels but the contact staff channel, and whitelist staff role and member pings

First, I created a contact staff channel where members can't send message, but they CAN create and send messages in private threads. I included instructions on how to make threads in the embed, along with a hyperlink to Discord's thread support page

Name a game with a 10/10 soundtrack (Honestly, both games though)

Spent all day organizing my library on Steam and finally arrived at a classification scheme that I think will meaningfully let me prioritize my unplayed games. Shoutout to www.lorenzostanco.com/lab/steam/ which let me sort games in my library by review score

I've officially decided I'm tired of all the art scammers. Going to use Sapphire to automatically ban people who trigger the native automod

The bot EasyThreads is pretty useful for managing threads and forum posts. Most notably, you can use it to add a tag to every new forum post. Since you can't filter by the absence of tags, this can be quite helpful if you push forum posts through stages of issue resolution.

Toss up between Promare and Sing a Bit of Harmony. Both very different but very excellent movies!
