Ok, but why "prefer"? That's my problem with this post, it's literally saying in the tittle "Stop using"

Why not suggest as an alternative option, so people like you, who doesn't agree with that sort of thing, can have?

you need to register to come in and you need to be invited to the group otherwise you cannot join it?

Torque3D Discord server have a public invite over there, i don't see why is this an issue.

Also, you can use it without having to register as an account(with it's cons of course)

We had an IRC channel since forever, but Jeff decided that we use Discord now and when I said something against I just get "Screw you" as an answer.

Go with the flow?

From both the link you quote and this, i have the impression that you suggest things and then wants it done

But that's purpose right? If you made a point and they considered and disagreed, why keep insisting and making it seems that they are against you?

I'm not sure if you're serious or trolling at this point.

I also think it reduces activity in the forums, which is very bad and your force people through peer pressure to get another program

Freedom of choice? I personally prefer Discord.

And no one is being forced? You're here writing and we are still answering it ;)

Important decisions are also still being posted and the forums have activity when needed.

So, what's the problem?

and register there in order to take part in the discussion there

Heh, what exactly is the problem with that? Discord collecting data?

I like how "The reasons not to use Discord" only mentions one btw

You also had to register to be part of this forum, so...

since Discord is not a free open platform that is visible to anyone like this forum. Why not have an open platform for chat as well?

May not be free, but is definitely more convenient and it was one of the first things i searched about this community.

Can you please elaborate more about this suggestion? It's very bland and i have the feeling that it goes more through your personal preference of which platform we should use for coms, instead of really helping with anything.
