1.You can disable the preview of URLs from @veterans in client settings, same goes for animated and media stuff and uploaded pictures

#

2.you can disable new message per channel 'notifications' by the small bell right side of the name channel (top of screen)

#

3.if i forgot add you into @veterans group just tell me on Skype, Email, IRC or w/e so i know who why where ;)

#

@moderators are selected from the most trusted @veterans (by me or just ask), moderator can kick and mute (for now only i can ban/erase stuff)

#

for now this server is only for public chats, VIP/private channels maybe later (as separate server)

#

main group is @everyone (no URL, no picture upload), @veterans can post URLs and drag&drop pictures , TTS is disabled for everyone below @moderators
