@wintry bloom Discord limits how often followed cahnels chan be pushed to other servers, This is by design

timid pilot
#

Only so many posts can be published at a time

deft sorrel
#

Hi. Discord rate limits how many posts can be pushed from a channel. We can't push the entire live letter to servers.

That’s a shame it doesn’t display or give an error if the threshold is met . Thanks for answer so fast though

@wintry bloom Followed servers don't automatically send messages; we have to manually select which ones to publish. In this case, we only publish the first one because there's a 10/hour limit

Really appreciate our translator(s) here - This is the first one I've bothered to join realtime and your work is fantastic

From myself as well: Huuuuuge thanks to the translation team here. You're really doing a great job, know that people really love your work! Without you we'd be put into a huge difficulty understanding the Live Letter. Thanks for your work to ease it up for us ♥

@hollow lance They can only push out x msgs/hr, so they only push out the initial one, not every message.

Is there any approved messages yet, I followed the channel too but didn't get any messaged apart from first info that ll is in 30 minutes?

scarlet kindle
#

Discord only allows 10 messages per hour to be pushed

dense geyser
#

We don't push the live letter itself because it'd be impossible

languid phoenix
#

I completely understand that and discord's limitation. So I'm assuming messages will be sent later when it's decided which messages are important? I'm sorry, it's my first time using follow-system

#

Also thank you for translation ❤️

dense geyser
#

No, it would literally take like, days

#

The first pushed message is simply a reminder to come here to see the PLL

#

Since it's a live translation, all of the lines are separate messages

You seem to have three roles; were you trying to add additional ones beyond that?

finite pier

It will automatically deselect your roles after you've picked them, but you'll still have them

ornate pelican
#

!rules 1

ancient galeBOT
#
1. Be respectful

It is the first rule because it is the most important. Be respectful of other users and their opinions.

• Don't ping other users or user roles without good reason.

• Do not harass, name-shame, or witch-hunt. Sexual harassment will result in an immediate ban.

• No inappropriate content. Content that is overly sexual in nature or language that may make members feel uncomfortable is not permitted.

• Certain content including some profanity is not permitted on this server and may be automatically removed. List of example content.

ornate pelican
#

That conversation was pressing the limits of Rule 1 beyond what is acceptable. Slinging insults back and forth. And "consulting" adults or not the rules are the rules and we will maintain them.

coral coral
#

There was no pinging, harassments, name-shaming or sexual content. To be fair. So I'm not seeing how it applies. Oomie was also insulted but there was no action

ornate pelican
#

oomie was not muted due to their opinions. oomie was muted because I asked the conversation to stop and they continued anyways.

coral coral
#

But that's not rule 1 then.

modern jacinth
#

!rules 4

ancient galeBOT
#
4. The "do not do this" rule.

Do not:

• Share anything NSFW. Any content reasonably judged as being NSFW is not allowed on this Discord server. This rule applies server-wide to all channels and any content shared; Messages, links, emoji, nicknames, profile pictures, etc.

• Spread misleading and/or false information. When speculating or making assumptions, make it known that it is such and not based on facts.

• Engage in extremely controversial topics. A gaming-related Discord is no place for discussion about topics that are typically extremely controversial and polarizing. This includes discussion about politics and politically charged subjects such as guns, drugs, and sexuality.

• Beg. Begging for subscription time, game codes, DLC codes, or any other items will result in an immediate ban.

• Perform giveaways with strings attached. Any giveaway may not require viewing or subscribing to a stream, following on Twitter, or any other activity which may qualify as 'performing an action' for entry. Exceptions may be given at mod discretion for giveaways based on charity work.

• Spam channels or members DMs. Do not use this server to send unsolicited spam/advertising messages to server members. Anyone found to be doing this will be immediately banned.

• Try to find loopholes in the rules. This includes stretching the rules or ignoring moderators' instructions.

modern jacinth
#

But it is in Rule 4.

coral coral
#

Where?

tulip lava
#

Try to find loopholes in the rules. This includes stretching the rules or ignoring moderators' instructions.

#

If a staff member gives you a clear instruction we expect you to adhere to it. It's really that simple

coral coral
#

So the rule is "Do what you're told", which makes the rules arbitrary and can be applied at the whims of mods. I think that was oomie's comment, basically. Fair enough if that's how things work, also fair to give comment on that.

tulip lava
#

What it boils down to really is that a staff member decided the conversation was starting to get out of hand, per rule 1, and instructed the channel to move on to something else for the time being.

Choosing to ignore that is a violation of rule 4 which is what oomie was muted for

fiery shuttle
#

the convo was pointless cause neither side wanted to listen or respect the other's opinion

tulip lava
#

If you disagreed with the initial rule 1 decision and wished to dispute it then you could have come here to #discord-feedback to discuss it instead of ignoring that staff member's requests

#

If you were getting punished for daring to question an administrator then you wouldn't be talking to me right now (:

#

There's a time and a place for disagreeing with us. This would be the place

gloomy grove
#

And on top of that, Eanae is the owner of this Discord.

coral coral
#

Refia, who decides what conversation is pointless? I thought the conversation was more useful and on-topic than the random spam in the channel right now.

ornate pelican
#

The mentors brought up that the conversation was steering into uncomfortable territory and I concurred. I stopped the conversation.

#

No one was punished. You were muted for attempting to respark it once everyone else had moved on.

#

If you want to complain about parsing go do it in The Balance and see how long you last there.

gloomy grove
#

The reason you were muted was simply due to not following instructions, not for holding the conversation in the first place

ornate pelican
#

The conversation devolved into "this is why we can't have nice things"

tulip lava
#

That's your decision to make. Thanks for the feedback (:

coral coral
#

Such a rule, on top of not allowing mild disagreements in healthy discussion, fosters a bizarre culture of censorship and mod worship

ornate pelican
#

Failure to follow instruction from here will result in removal from the server. So your choice.

gloomy grove
#

This includes stretching the rules or ignoring moderators' instructions

coral coral
#

the line at the bottom of rule 4 suggests the person is ignoring instructions given in relation to other rules (mainly, 4).
if the reality is "follow explicit instructions at all times", it should absolutely be rule number 1 for clarity.

ornate pelican
#

We're done arguing this point. You're welcome to leave if you disagree.

plain arch
#

I would argue 'follow what the moderators say' would be one of those auto-implied rules? Like.. if that's not a default case why the hell do they even exist? Why bother trying to enforce anything that way?

coral coral
#

because Moderators are meant to enforce existing rules, Doomstick, not just give out random instructions. That's how a managed community works. If the mods are free to give whatever instructions they want, there is no system of rules, just a heirarchy of normal members and those "above". I won't comment further however that is the obvious response to your question.

Ban Issued for oomie#2697

@main tangle has been banned by Eanae#0001 for the following reason:

I draw the line at nazi comparisons. Failure to follow server rules.

finite pier
#

Ahh, yes, someone who deals with nazi comparisons was surely having a civil discussion

coral coral
#

Actually he was, Plattbagarn, his final comment was obviously in relation to his feedback on how the server is run (the point of this channel), applying it in reverse to his civil discussions in ffxiv-discussion is silly.

ornate pelican
#

@coral coral You haven't crossed any lines but your disdain for moderation is fairly clear given your short posting history here. Just keep it civil and don't actively dig yourself a hole.

#

Your feedback has been noted and we can discuss if we feel the rules need to be updated but I generally think given 104k people don't seem to have issue with it that there isn't much need to do so.

coral coral
#

I have no problem with moderation when applied to rules logically. I have moderated big discords before and I know it's required or things unravel fast. I find random shutting down of on-topic conversations a bit weird, banning someone for a comment on heirarchical authoritarianism questionable (and a bit ironic), and mocking someone after they've been banned also very distasteful. but as oomie is gone and the conversation was about his feedback there's nothing left here so i will not fill up your channel further

ornate pelican
#

The moderator who made the comment has already been spoken to. Hence why I deleted the comment.

#

You are correct that it was not acceptable.

How do you guys feel about not allowing datamines of the MSQ trial boss to be posted in #archived-lore-spoilers? I'd like to be able to view other datamined stuff like minions and gear, but there's a risk of being spoiled of the bosses and other msq elements which will ruin the surprise 😦

Of course, if you guys don't want to regulate what datamine is being posted by users, I'll just avoid the channel until patch release

oblique flax
#

I am absolutely against datamined spoilers before the maintenance is over. After that, it's fair game.

waxen root
#

Could just have a MSQ spoilers and Side Content spoilers chat but that's probably too much for just a day

elder violet
#

What we might do is add a channel that's only visible when a major patch is about to arrive and sticks around for a bit, and also for the duration of a live letter.

oblique flax
#

So like an expansion-spoiler channel? A bit overkill, gotta say.

scarlet kindle
#

it would allow for safe discussion in #archived-lore-spoilers of established content, while still allowing people to discuss datamined/LL content without spoiling for people who aren't interested

plain arch
#

Pretty sure awhile back there was something about datamining being kind of bad around here. I'll err on the side of not a fan for that one.

untold sequoia
elder violet
#

We removed our data mining channel, where a couple of members were exclusively sharing datamined content. The only other change we made was limiting the discussion and sharing of datamined information to #archived-lore-spoilers. That's it.

Discussion is allowed.

Sharing is allowed.

It's the same for r/ffxiv. Discussion and sharing is allowed. We simply aren't going out our way to put that kind of thing on a pedestal.

So I’m making my own Discord server for my FC and am looking at getting Kupo Bot for it. I’m trying to figure out exactly what all it does (i.e., does it gives roles when ppl join or like can I set a welcome page up and they have to type in a command after 5 mins to acquire the member role or something and whatever else it can do id like to know lol) or is it better to go with DynBot for such things as handing out roles, etc

So I’m having issues if anyone is able to help, I see the command for alerting when ppl join the server is !spam join_channel <ChannelID>, but what do I put as the <ChannelID>? I’ve tried the channel name that I want it to go into which would be my bot-spam channel but keeps saying invalid command

It should be the ID of the channel if you right click the channel and select copy ID

Gives me a bunch of numbers and I switch out <ChannelID> for the numbers instead

I'm fine with keeping it around in general for overall spoilers including current patch, personally. Gives it a clear purpose and it has more than enough traffic to warrant it.. at least, currently. It'll probably fall off in awhile as the 5.3 chatter dies down, but it's still a solid place to just dump spoilery stuff in general.

spoilers from prior patches?

I like the patch specific channel. It eliminates any drama (enter that channel at your own risk) as well as making so you dont have to spoil tag everything (which is a pain in the ass), and also makes the other channels more "usable" in the days following a patch

eager stone
#

Hello! I think a separate channel for the patch good idea, though since it seems 5.3 spoilers are posted on both channels, I ended up avoiding both. I also wasn't sure where I should talk about 5.3 relevant stuff, and since discussion about it happens on both channel, I ended up doing the same.

For the future, if I may offer feedback, I would appreciate implementing the channel early, aka have the channel be open a few hours or a day before the PLL goes live, and when maintenance starts or a few hours before it for major patches.

I also wasn't sure if patch spoilers are still acceptable in #archived-lore-spoilers with the new channel. I checked the announcement and pins to check if there's a new rule with the new channel and didn't find any. I assume talking about patch spoilers are still accepted in #archived-lore-spoilers. If not, I think distinctions should be made 😣

And the last point, I personally don't think it should be used for minor patches, but that's since I don't care about being spoiled for side content. Others might see it differently from me.

Sorry for the long feedback, was trying to be clear with it. Hope it helps, and thank you for the channel!

There are a lot of new players coming to the game so keeping spoilers for 2 weeks made sense to me. I can totally see how it can get old and annoying quick for veteran/regular players though.

Hello, I know this is off topic to what was asked in announcements regarding lore spoilers, but who do I contact regarding members of this server RMTing via DMs? (I have since adjusted settings to not allow DMs from people unless friends, which I thought I already had.)

#

Understood, thank you Maera 🙂

elder violet
#

Thanks for the feedback about #retired-patch-6-3-discussion! 🙂 It's much appreciated.

My one suggestion would be to (temporarily of course while the temp channel remains) seperate it from #archived-lore-spoilers in the list.

In the future, I agree it's a good idea to have it separated in the channel list away from #archived-lore-spoilers. It makes sense to draw away any potential overlap of spoilers and discussion between the two channels. We're also gonna keep an eye on how active things are in that channel in terms of unique participation, and see if adjusting the time the channel sticks around after a major patch is reasonable. Currently, the channel will be archived on Tuesday, but that could change.

that's an irk of mine if anything, like what's the purpose of #archived-lore-spoilers now?

I also wasn't sure if patch spoilers are still acceptable in #archived-lore-spoilers with the new channel. I checked the announcement and pins to check if there's a new rule with the new channel and didn't find any. I assume talking about patch spoilers are still accepted in #archived-lore-spoilers. If not, I think distinctions should be made 😣

To clarify the purpose of the channel and major patches, it's intended for discussion of spoilers specifically about the most recent major patch when it arrives and for a while afterwards. For example with Patch 5.3, there should ideally be limited discussion about MSQ/side content in #archived-lore-spoilers unless it pertains to older content (Patch 5.2X and older), and this is especially enforced for anyone sharing datamined content. Once enough time has passed (currently one week), allowing the majority of folks to have completed the MSQ and other content from Tuesday (when the patch is live) and over the weekend, the channel will be archived and #archived-lore-spoilers will go back to being the catch-all for spoilerly discussions and stuff.
_ _

#

I'll look at making an edit to the channel topics of #retired-patch-6-3-discussion and #archived-lore-spoilers, and possibly #about-this-server to make the intended usage and distinction between those channels clearer.

For the future, if I may offer feedback, I would appreciate implementing the channel early, aka have the channel be open a few hours or a day before the PLL goes live, and when maintenance starts or a few hours before it for major patches.

The channel was implemented at very short notice, and in the future it'll be around much earlier (It popped up around 1.5 hours before servers opened up early! D:). Even with the short notice, I'm happy with how active the channel has been, and considering the amount of overlap between #retired-patch-6-3-discussion and #archived-lore-spoilers. Thank you very much to the members who helped steer folks to the appropriate channel!

The goal is to have it around shortly before or at the start of maintenance for a major patch, and a day or so before a live letter (this will probably vary depending on the topics covered by the live letter).

#

_ _

And the last point, I personally don't think it should be used for minor patches, but that's since I don't care about being spoiled for side content. Others might see it differently from me.

I agree but it's really upto you folks to decide whether minor patches should be covered or not. The main focus behind #retired-patch-6-3-discussion being around is to move discussion of new patch spoilers (MSQ, datamining, side content, etc) away from #archived-lore-spoilers so people who don't get a chance to play through the new content as early as other players can, don't have to explicitly avoid that channel (or indeed other channels too) and can continue to safely participate there. Minor patches don't often add anything substantial enough to warrant it, but it enough folks want them to be included in the purpose of that channel, it shall be done!

Hello! I'm sorry to be a bug :(. I'm setting up a server reorg for our FC and am trying to work in Kupobot wherever I can. We love it to bits so far, so first thanks for all your hard work on it :). I do have a question with reaction roles though--two, actually. Is it possible to have a reaction role have a prerequisite role to be assigned? (This totally isn't a big thing). And, is it possible to set multiple roles to one reaction, so that we could assign all roles listed on a message with one react?

Thanks 🙂

ornate pelican
#

Can you expand on what you mean by perquisite role? As for the second one it is not possible. For an FC have you considered using the automated FC roles?

tulip lava
#

The best way to do prerequisite roles would be to have your reaction roles message in a channel that you need the prereq role to access. Whether you assign that prereq role manually or have Kupo role reaction messages in multiple channels is up to you @twilit knoll

twilit knoll
#

@ornate pelican Sorry I missed your response, but I think @tulip lava has the right of it--it'd be a role with perms locked behind another role. Ex: Some channels publically accessible, raider channels for FC members that are opt-in, must be FC member to opt-in to raider role. I could very well have missed something with the automated FC roles in the wiki, I'll take another look, though that second message gives a workable solution either way :). Thanks!

#

What was changed with the security of the server? I just saw it in the announcements.

elder violet
#

Currently, nothing.

We cannot turn up the verification level to what was recommended to us (phone verification), as this prevents new users joining the server from reacting in #612757637813239808, therefore preventing them from accessing the majority of the server. It's also really annoying for genuine users.

We cannot simply hide the user list and prevent the bots seeing who to DM (one way of doing this would be by using duplicate channels, such as a clone of #about-this-server but with different permissions and added role reactions), as it's apparent the accounts sending the RMT DMs are hijacked accounts using self-bots, which can always view the server members via Discord's API. These accounts are not new, and they don't stand out; there's no way to distinguish them from genuine accounts.

Until a better solution comes up, ourselves and other popular Discord servers being hit by these RMT DM bots are in the same situation: I'm afraid there's absolutely nothing we can do right now to prevent these bots joining the server and/or sending DMs to server members. Discord themselves need to step in at this point and take action. They need to provide us with the tools we need to prevent this kind of thing, such as disabling new members without roles from sending DMs to server members.

Please send us a #discord-modmail for any RMT DMs you receive and we'll take action as necessary. You can also report them directly to Discord, which is more appropriate as it technically isn't taking place within the server and the accounts can be suspended rather than just get a ban from us.

@elder violet Could you look into using a Captcha to verify someone isn't a bot or would that not help?

elder violet
#

It's a possible solution for most Discord servers, but as we're both a Partner server and a L3 boosted server, both of which means we have a very accessible server, by way of a permanent invite URL and visibility on Server Discovery, it's not viable for us.

waxen root
#

On a side note, I'd put forward a general recommendation to turn off non-friend private messages on all servers except for private/small/friend discord servers

livid galleon
#

The Captcha Bot basically allows access to the server, but not any channels or the members list until they verify. It wouldn't stop people being able to join the server, just having access to features on the server until they perform the Captcha

elder violet
#

In that case, it wouldn't prevent the bots from seeing the server members.

livid galleon
#

Are you 100% sure about that? For instance, in my WoW guilds Discord server, when I am in the Officer channel, I can only see the user names of other Officers, I cannot see the general users at large.

waxen root
#

You can see the numbers when you're on the join screen

untold sequoia
#

Bots are using the DIscord API to pull the member list

livid galleon
#

Ah okay. Well I hope Discord puts a fix in soon

mystic creek
#

They do not intend to change that it has been that way since the API existed.

turbid kayak
#

This is what has to be done to prevent bots from seeing the server members.
When a new user joins, they don't have access to any channel that normal members usually have. And then one channel where only new members have joined.
That means, you need a complete seperate category/channel outside of what normal users have access to. If you want to include for example #about-this-server , but not allow the bots to see the members, you would need to create a copy #about-this-server where only the new members can see it.

What i could see is to have a different category just for new members and block the rest of the categories.

As long the bots does not have access to any channels that all the other members are in, then they cant see the members

untold sequoia
#

That doesn't work because the Discord API allows you to see any member, not just the ones in your channel

turbid kayak
#

Hmm, if so, then that's unfortunate

#

That is in fact true. The only way to stop the PMs is to turn on phone verification.

elder violet
#

Which will likely just piss off new members as well as screwing with the server structure (how we gate channels behind roles obtained via reactions, which was done to prevent bots in the first place).

vagrant belfry
#

discord sends everything to the client through the API, the client hides what channels it should hide on the client, the packets for the members are there, a normal person cant see it unless they are a hacker

mystic creek
#

Definitely don't need to be a hacker, it's not that complicated. But yes, that's the general idea.
The mobile validation I've seen deter more legitimate members than actual bots. But it does work for the bots because if they aren't verified then they cannot send DMs to server members.

At this point, the only thing I'd say for the admins to do is to send a warning in #announcements and give a written guide on how to disable direct messages from server members

I'm not sure. If kupobot has the functionality for it, but it could e mail new users with a how to limit dms by server, and a warning about rmt bots.

vagrant belfry

wouldnt it be smarter if kupo bot sent a DM warning about RMT bots

tawdry parrot
#

? I just said that. But some people would rather not be spammed by bots, and the problem is also to try and prevent them from harassing people in the server. An informational dm from the server for the less discord savvy might be helpful.

Can we get the crystal meme out really? Its being used in a toxic manner and sometimes there's overgeneralization that's actually mean. I understand it's half true but Crystal will never change if less good people never come into Crystal at all, which is an effect of this meme being perpetrated over and over again.

#

And it gets old

elder violet
#

@fiery shuttle That seems more appropriate for #rants rather than this channel. Crystal being a meme on NA is just like French players being bad is a meme on EU. Whilst there might have been a slither of truth in it at some point when it was fun, it's never been overly true or applicable to every player it's implied to affect.

However, no amount of banning or otherwise being restrictive on said meme here will make it go away elsewhere.

fiery shuttle
#

What if someone refuses to even accept my statements and just goes "okay crystal player" or directly personally attacking someone that's in crystal. Being dismissive of someone just because theyre crystal bad.

elder violet
#

If someone is personally attacking someone else, or otherwise breaks the server rules, then contact us.

ornate pelican
#

Yeah there’s a fine line here

#

Crystal is statistically the weaker data center. The numbers irrefutably back that up. It will always be memed. However if someone is using that to attack people then that’s a problem.

#

There is a difference between memeing the datacenter and being mean to a person.

So I just read up on the replies, didn't get a ping so didn't know I got responded to.

On the RMT bot spam and the lack of a verification option I have a suggestion. I don't know the limitation of Discord bot API, but if a bot can send friend requests / remove friends then this could work. Have the "verification" level of this server set to "phone verification". This will not affect users with a role, meaning those of us already here are unaffected. Upon users joining the server, the bot will send the new users a DM stating the reasoning for the extra security measures, and tells them to accept the friend request from the bot so that they are able to DM the bot while still not having a role here in the server. Some sort of randomized password system (Captcha?) will need to be sent to the bot in order to verify they are human and apply a role to the user. Have a separate entrance channel for un-roled users with similar instructions on how to get verified as well in case for some reason they have DMs turned off.

Another option would be to use have a "proxy" server. New users receive a DM from the bot to join the proxy server where there is an automated human verification process in place. Once done, it'll assign the user a role on this server and then kick them from the proxy server.

I know its a lot of work, but you gotta work with what you have

mystic creek
#

Bots cannot have friends lists.

frozen whale
#

That's messed up. Well, that leaves the "proxy" server then. Sorry if I can't reply as quick, there's kind of a 60sec cooldown in sending messages here so I'm editing to reply

mystic creek
#

However, the captcha idea can still work. Assuming users do not have DMs disabled by default, it could send a message with optional captcha to bypass the mobile verification as granting a role will negate the need for the mobile verification should they choose that instead.

The problem then becomes what about the users with DMs disabled, that is a notable amount of people.

frozen whale
#

You can have a separate entrance channel informing users that they need to have DM's enabled.

If you have "phone verification" enabled then they can not reply to the bot while in this server and not having a role/phone verified then. That's why I first mentioned friend requests because friends are allowed to DM each other regardless of server settings.

You can still have the bot DM a user the proxy server, and have a link to the proxy server in a cloned entrance channel for verification purposes.

untold sequoia
#

The RMT bots are starting to die down anyways

frozen whale
#

The purpose of the proxy server is so that bots can't just DM people here through API and on the proxy server the security can be more lax since the only people that will be in it are your bots and this discord's moderation team in there

Well, if they do come back here is a suggestion you could try and use for verification then if things get really bad

mystic creek
#

The proxy server isn't an ideal solution. I get the purpose but a lot of people will be put off by the notion of having to join another server just to gain access to one.

If the bots are dying down, anything extreme wouldn't be very worth the investment. That of course depends on why the decrease, it could be waiting for the decrease in security measures or just waiting for accounts to mature, or fingers crossed they gave up.

frozen whale
#

It's not an ideal solution, but it is still a solution. When you have very little to work with you work with what you got. Unfortunately as with all security measures, the more secure you want something then the more difficult it is to access. A bank keeps their valuables locked behind locks behind locks

mystic creek
#

While it's a valid point, it's a chat server, not large sums of people's money. Ideally you want a solution that has minimal impact on the user experience. When you go to a bank, you don't need to generally wait for vault to be unlocked to get your money.

untold sequoia
#

Unfortunately we also have to take into account any potential impact to server growth before implementing any measures

frozen whale
#

I'm very familiar with user experience. Yeah, it would suck if I had to wait at the bank for the vaults to open to get my withdraw.

I'm don't know numbers/goal this Discord's trying to reach. I co-founded the main Discord of another, smaller game and as we got larger we had to give up some freedoms and implement checks to deal with certain issues that we faced. Always had to weigh whether or not a check was just too much and would deter people

It really sucks that Discord doesn't have more features in place for security. It was a reason I really liked Mumble with it's ACL permissions that allowed for a lot of freedom, customization, and security all at the same time

The rants channel is no exception to the existing rules found in #about-this-server, especially rule 1. It's fine to not agree with something someone else has said, as long as the conversation is respectful and civil.

Why do you feel a channel specific rule is needed as opposed to letting moderators know when things might need moderating?

why is the sos boss not a spoiler but the exarch is

hallow yacht
#

I believe it's due to the role they play in the story, Exarch has a more long-lasting role while SoS boss has a fleeting single-instance appearance

strong sedge
#

but the SoS boss's appearance was sucha secret they hid it in the patch notes

@mighty fossil They're both spoilers

#

||And a picture shows no context for who the boss actually is||

strong sedge
#

But we can't even post pictures of the exarch

obsidian verge
#

The moderation team decided that the 5.3 boss is not a spoiler because of his presence on the official website (https://discordapp.com/channels/100463940835762176/100463940835762176/751146790958530610)
But still considers the Crsystal Exarch's face a spoiler, despite being on multiple official Square Enix social media accounts, and on special sites just like the one that shows the 5.3 boss.
This is a double standard and needs to be clearer. It's either both okay to post in #general-discussion, or neither is ok. I just ask the mods pick one.

Discord

Discord is the easiest way to communicate over voice, video, and text. Chat, hang out, and stay close with your friends and communities.

hallow yacht
#

cuz of the clothing of the exarch

untold sequoia
#

No, you're misunderstanding our stance

#

SoS isn't a spoiler because its on an official website, its not a spoiler because what the official website shows is inconsequential

#

Revealing the story around SoS would be a spoiler though

obsidian verge
#

The design of a boss is just as much of a spoiler as the identity of the Crystal Exarch. They're both big reveals and both big surprises as soon as they're shown. If I saw what the 5.3 boss looked like before playing the patch content, I'd be really disappointed that I didn't get to see the context behind it.
It is a spoiler.

untold sequoia
#

I disagree

#

Who the Exarch really is is a massive plot point built up over 5.0 and the pre-patches

hallow yacht
#

I also disagree, seeing a beloved character such as WoL in this game would only hype me more, making me wonder "Why is he here?" "Oh i wonder what he does" and such line of thoughts

untold sequoia
#

Its just not comparable

mighty fossil
#

i'd think it'd be easier to put both ||graha|| and ||wol|| as spoilers. was my slip up on not putting tags on for it

untold sequoia
#

What?

#

You know you can use their actual names right

#

Just put them in spoiler tags

strong sedge
#

having both information before you go into the story reveals the story prematurely. If you see the SoS design and then ||hear the bad guys call themselves the warrior of light|| it basically spoils whats gonna happen in 5.3 almost identically to if you saw ||graha tia's face|| and then saw the exarch

untold sequoia
#

I disagree with that

#

You don't know anything around that boss's story

strong sedge
#

The point is that hte moment you start 5.3's story with the knowldge that sos is the wol. you have enough information to basically see how it ends when it starts

hallow yacht
#

Not exactly, he could be a primal for all we know, made into image of it

At the same time, someone posting an innocuous image with no context and then someone going "REEE SPOILERS IN THE MAIN CHAT" is unproductive and itself a spoiler if the image is contextless

The vast majority of our spoiler damage comes from users flipping out over something being posted and being unable to hold their tongues.

In any case, it's been 3 weeks since the release of 5.3. I told people back when E8S released to keep mum on the topic when outside of #endgame-lounge or #archived-lore-spoilers, for 2 weeks, then be light on the topic in other channels afterwords. We're well past that point now.

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

Discord servers that do not adhere to it can get removed, or lose their status. Do there's a lot on the line for this server, and others that are partnered.

So the effects, in essence, are more far reaching than you may realize.

#glamour-discussion should be renamed to glamour-questions. There are quite a few people who go in there thinking it's about showing off glamours when it's for asking for items that look like this or that, or look good with something. It's current name is misleading.

There are some who post a picture of the glam, and nothing else. So nothing too meaningful comes out of it.

brave bough
#

Not that I'm against it, just seemed like it was a rule to me.

eager stone
#

People simply posting screenshots of their glam and not do anything else was also brought up as an issue here #discord-feedback message

I personally think if you want to show off your glam, do say something like "I'm really proud of this glam!" to start a discussion (people can then comment on it, or ask what certain pieces are). If the user is just sharing a screenshot of their glam without a word then... not much to discuss because we don't know why they shared that pic 🤷

umbral fog
#

there's nothing wrong, imo, with people putting their glamours into #glamour-discussion but if they just drop a screenshot without any context or text at all, it should go into #ffxiv-screenshots as simply throwing a screenshot in does not generate discussion for the most part and that is largely the purpose of the channel. To discuss glamour, whether its asking for help or critique or whatever

Hallo folks! I have a real dumb Kupo question. I've yet to be able to get purge working in our FC's server for clearing event channels and junk. Is there a syntax beyond [commandchar]purge [#], and would other bots potentially conflict with this, even if they didn't have purge as a command?

Hallo folks! I have a real dumb Kupo question. I've yet to be able to get purge working in our FC's server for clearing event channels and junk. Is there a syntax beyond [commandchar]purge [#], and would other bots potentially conflict with this, even if they didn't have purge as a command?

The two big showstoppers for Purge are either Kupo doesn't have send_messages, embed_links and manage_messages in the channel you're trying to Purge or you don't have the action logs channel set up (which you can read about here - https://gitlab.com/kupo-bot/KupoBot/-/wikis/Configuring-KupoBot#action-channel)

I'll look to add some error handling for that second case today so it informs the end user if that's the problem.

Discord has a limit on how many messages can be published in an hour

Oh how many? Doesnt that make the feature a bit useless AzuDead

scarlet kindle
#

It helps notify people that live translations have started in here so that's what we use it for

fiery shuttle
#

I see thanks.

deft sorrel
#

I swear this happens every time there's a live letter. As a reminder, due to Discord's rate limiting, we can only push the first message of a live letter.

fiery shuttle
#

You might wanna pin that somewhere or anywhere in the server because not everyone knows this GWvictoriaMeguFace

elder violet
#

Probably better to have something in the channel topic of #translations-and-liveletters, since no one reads the pins (that channel's pins serve a specific purpose anyway). But, it has come up many times in the past; it's frequently been mentioned in the liveletter channel (e.g. https://discordapp.com/channels/100463940835762176/151558839005741056/623021186384658442)

The limit is ridiculously low (10 per hour) but that's intentional. It's an 'announcement' channel, for those irregular infrequent announcements/important messages, not 'hundreds of messages per hour' channel.

dense geyser
elder violet
#

That's likely due to how many servers follow that channel. IIRC it's quite a few thousand?

turbid kayak
#

over 114k follows

eager stone
#

Maybe the message that gets published to other servers should include an explanation that the rest of the LL will be posted in the reddit discord and include the invite link?

#

Either by kupo bot or have a prepared message that can be easily copy pasted

#

you can join the discord by clicking on the author of the message

safe oxide
#

if it wasnt rate limited it would put massive stress on discord's servers i'm sure

best way I can put it is that when the LL announcement is posted you also push the alert saying that the full translation will be in the channel so if people continue to complain you can just tell them "please read the message"

was told to leave a few thoughts on endgame stuff in this server.

it feels like this discord could potentially be the more "casual" friendly alternative to endgame content as the balance is a more uh harsh enviroment to put it lightly. feels like thats a space in particular thats missing in the xiv community and i think we could do a good job of filling it. it feels like the balance is a bit more for people who already have an idea of what theyre doing. stuff like explaining mechanics which arent easily explained via videos to some people, explaining why 80 rotations are Like That, tips for individual classes in endgame etc.

i would start with reworking endgame discussion pins entirely, theyre outdated and dont help anyone and might as well mostly be purged at this point and replaced with guides/tips for the current raid tier, ex, stuff like castrum/pb potentially dungeon speedruns :^). theres a ton of resources out there which can be easily compiled into one neat package so the more common questions can be READTHEPINS

at the same time the individual longues for the classes are kind of weird? feels like the dps ones dont get traction at all and the other ones get questions that would be better suited in an endgame discussion channel. i would move the endgame discussion channel up and renamed it to endgame-questions instead. role longues feel a bit unnecessary. i wouldnt have them deleted but i feel like a endgame-questions channel would be better suited to answering questions rather than individual lounges (also because its easier to call out someone for giving bad advice which ive seen.. a bunch.)

this wouldnt necessarily be like a big break through but i feel like these suggestions could help a bit to make this server more introduction to endgame content friendly. i wouldnt compete with the balance, but provide an alternative to it thats less intimidating.

thorny lantern
#

This discord is already considered casual to be honest.

I personally havent found the balance to be harsh if you keep yourself to the class channels, as a black mage myself i found the caster channels to be super cozy/fluffy.

Also, the endgame discussion channel is meant to be for both discussion and questions, remaking it into a questions and help clone for endgame content will leave people out of a place to discuss endgame content/raids.

I brought up the lounges to the team and we will discuss them, this doesnt mean that anything will happen regarding them, but we will discuss them.

scarlet igloo
#

endgame discussion and endgame questions could also coexist in some form or the other, i do think thats possible hmmmmmm its just that i do see a lot of people ask questions about savage etc. in general chat and not in endgame discussion (it doesnt make it very clear that its also for questions, and i was considering it would get a lot more traction with some rebranding). my experience with the balance has mostly been a mixed worryga bag which is why im bringing it up. thank you for your consideration, though borryThumbsUp

timid pilot
#

Personally, the channel doesn’t see enough traffic to warrant a split, but I can understand the reasoning.

scarlet igloo
#

yeah i was trying to find a way to find more traffic to the channel esp because i think that it could end up having more under the right circumstances and dispelling that aura of "casual discord" a bit when there are a bunch of people who do endgame content and answer questions related to it all the time. even without a questions channel discussion could end up having a lot more traffic if it was just reworked a lil or pushed up to the ffxiv category chats nyaissablep

At the same time, there were a lot of female submissions. This is only meant to be a casual contest thing, not a professional award winning show or anything.

female submissions were shaved down to 10, which was done by internal vote among staff. with one, like IR noting being thrown out for having a modded chest piece

Do I feel that it was culled unfairly? absolutely considering some of the entries didnt even bother to have good lighting and didnt show the whole glam

It was an oversight on the part of all of us that voted that the rule-breaking entry got through at first. The staff keep an eye out and remove entries that break rules throughout the whole process of submissions but no one realised that one had been modded until too late

deft sorrel
#

Everyone was notified at the start of the contest that if there was too many submissions, they would be culled. You'll notice if you read the rules that full body shots were not required for this contest.

My directions to our staff when we did the culling vote were "pick your favorites", same as for the final vote.

Agreed. If you're just casually ignoring a chunk of the slots because they're difficult to work with, that should show. A contest is a contest, everyone should be on equal ground. Being allowed to just cut parts out and have it count, when others can't or won't, because they're too hard for you is... Yyyyiiikes. But that's me.

I totally get the reason with this one; I'm not complaining about it

pearl halo

Ideally that just goes into the voting - if someone doesn't like that they can't see boots or w/e then they should vote for someone else. But it's also kinda dangerous to leave everything up in the air, see /r/ffxivglamours with no voting criteria that has top all time mostly taken up by boring but heavily reshaded glam shots.

fiery shuttle
#

Pretty much i think the contest was half assed, more so than before. Probably because you've ran the contest every month by now. You've missed some rule breaks before even culling.

#

Glam is about the whole outfit and package and not only the top portion. sipfia

i wouldnt tell you to remove one of the current entries but you also missed another obvious rule break. Please don't remove it when you see it cause there's already less and less of female glams

glass panther
#

Not sure this has been suggested or thought of yet, but is it possible to add glamour to trivia? Participants would be shown a certain glamour and they would have to name the specific piece. Of course these pieces would be hand picked by someone Kael knows about lots of glam. But I feel like something like this would open people's eyes to some really underlooked sets out there.

deft sorrel
#

We can look and see if Trivia can support image links that properly display for a question

plain arch
#

I really wouldn't suggest this one. Glamour is far too specific, and a colossal majority of players probably can't name glamour pieces off the drop of a hat. This is especially notable with variants that have minor differences, such as the Rebel Coat. It's a neat idea, but not exactly ideal imo.

Consider that each trivia question has an associated difficulty that changes depending on whether it has been answered correctly or not and that some glamour sets are far more common and known than others. Perhaps if a question with an image had more time to be answered, that would also help.

As for glamour sets that are variants of others, all the names of the variant sets/pieces should be acceptable answers. That would eliminate the issue.

mystic creek
#

A true glamour savant can tell the difference between the rebel coat and the urban coat. That's not a good example as the differences are quite apparent. I think it becomes a matter of determining what is obvious and what is not. A lot of sets are shared models, those I think would obviously classify as accepting all possible versions. But I would disagree at urban/rebel because they're different.

plain arch
#

But that would create the precedent that the only real glamour names worth knowing are the shortest names to type. A difference in a few keystrokes makes a hell of a change when theres 40, 50 people all vying for the first answer. I'll freely admit that can be taken as a bit of a stretch (and not being a glamour person, hell if I've got an answer), but I guarantee that's 100% what will occur.

umbral fog
#

Just to add to what teddy said, rebel coat has a fuckton more bells and whistles to it. there's a pretty clear difference to them

plain arch
#

It's an example. Not an absolute.

finite pier
#

It already works like that with the DH vs Direct hit for the materia question, tho. Or am I misinterpreting what you're saying?

plain arch
#

The difference there is we're talking statlines, something literally everyone that plays the game is exposed to on a regular basis. Not merely the names of an outfit. DH sticks because you're reading it over and over. How often does one randomly mention or come across the manderville top in comparison?

#

Don't get me wrong, that's potentially a fair argument and is appreciated as a result; but even if you're not a super legend at the game, odds are significantly higher you're going to know stat abbreviations not only through being told, but also just on reading them once you see DH/Det in the conversational context of stats or damage.

tame osprey
#

i mean we have questions that ask for materias against blind debuff. Thats not something you will see as a normal player anyway.

plain arch
#

See, now that's fair. I didn't even know that existed. But at the same time.. Why.. Does it exist in trivia..?

glass panther
#

Because it's something people can learn

mystic creek
#

Trivia is not about being obvious answers. Like, who would have fun getting "which company produces ffxiv" booooring. A challenge is fun. Trivia by nature is not obvious questions.

umbral fog
#

Trivia is also a good way of learning obscure stuff so while having more obvious stuff is necessary, having obscure things is important too. Plus like Aza said, it'd potentially get more people a chance of seeing glamour items they may have not seen before and might wanna use in their own glams

obsidian verge
#

im all for glamour trivia questions to drown out the all hunt questions no one knows

turbid kayak
#

glamour trivia would be like on a different level than normal trivia, noone would be able to answer the questions except the ones who has the golden name.

pearl halo
#

You could remedy that by balancing the number of glamour questions compared to the other trivia ones

timid pilot
#

There’s over 2000 trivia questions, how many different and unique glamour questions would you want for a sense of balance?

I’m running under the assumption that each piece of gear is either unique enough to have no shared models or very few with similar names

pearl halo
#

I dont know how many subsections fall under it + the amounts in each so it'd depend on those both as well
But yeah i guess so. Im not big on trivia personally

The bot is online but

I don’t think intents are needed

Yeah I’m going to have to contact support. I didn’t request member intent when I got verified.

#

I put a support ticket in. Now it’s a waiting game.

pearl halo

Yes, as the bot is unable to assign roles, you can request a role by asking nicely in there.

tulip lava

There is a temporary bot in that channel. Just react to the roles you want and they'll be automatically assigned

I have to wonder if renaming the #glamour-discussion channel to something like... #glamour-discussion-advice for instance would give a better idea of what the channel is meant for.
I see a lot of people with wonderful glamours posting in there purely to show theirs off, only to get constantly redirected to #ffxiv-screenshots , so I can't help but wonder if a change like this might help prevent this confusion.

Where can I post questions about using Kupo Bot? I’m trying to set up a Resources channel and populate it with links but every syntax format I try just adds plaintext.

mystic creek
#

Does the bot have embed links permission?

twin island
#

It does now but no luck

tulip lava
#

The syntax for links in resources is [Link Display Text](https://website.com/path)

twin island
tulip lava
#

Resources are broken down into header and body so it would be something like


[Link Display Text 1](https://website.com/path)
[Link Display Text 2](https://website.com/path)``` 

You can look at [#resources](/guild/100463940835762176/channel/713667303203667968/) for examples, notice how every post has a title (header) and then body text? If you're still having issues feel free to DM me and we can talk over it without spamming this channel too much (:

#

You can do it in #kupo-bot-spam. People, not one person as many believe, used it to satiate their unhealthy thirst for attention as if it sustained their life force, in the middle of conversation. Adding nothing but an annoyance. Personally I think a per channel cooldown is ideal.

turbid kayak
#

then people would complain about the cooldown and their thirst of attention

mystic creek
#

Yeah, I mean it is what it is but they're substituting just fine now without it. The issue with !me is the embed was large and intrusive on mobile when you're in the middle of trying to have a conversation and then after 1 person, everyone, their mother and their cat felt the need to follow. Screenshots aren't as intrusive since they're responsive.

How to buy game

Click here for NA

Click here for EU

Click here for JP

Please read over the purchase pages carefully; Square Enix does not look kindly on people who require refunds or perform chargebacks. Chargebacks are grounds for full account termination.

The Starter Edition comes with A Realm Reborn and Heavensward only (content patches 2.0-3.55).

The Complete Edition comes with A Realm Reborn and all expansions up to and including Shadowbringers. (content patches 2.0-5.xx)

The Shadowbringers expansion should only be purchased on its own if: You only own the Starter Edition, or you only own the game up to Stormblood (if you are a new player, this second part likely does not apply to you).

Collector's Edition benefits for Shadowbringers can be viewed here. Note that there is a difference between the physical and digital versions. Digital collector's edition benefits from previous expansions may be purchased on the Mogstation, as well as the digital benefits for Shadowbringers if you buy the standard edition and change your mind later.
