which channel?
I used to have role but it was removed
🆙 | Placid Placenta leveled up!
yes
@minor condor i am sorry to trouble but i had a role and my role is gone
i am not from united states i am from guinea equitorial
how far?
Tengo una pregunta. Where do I post an audio recording to request corrections? It is not AOTW related.
I guess #📝・correct-me-please
Okay, thank you. I wasn't sure if it was ok to ask in the server or more appropriate to ask a partner in DM.
@bold bay Hemos cambiado el nombre de los canales, esperaremos otra semana más
Y si con esto todavía es suficiente. Seguiremos pensando
Noticed that the channel names were changed. only time will tell i guess but i cant imagine itll actually solve the issue. I think short of explicitly calling them "ask about Spanish" and "ask about English" there won't be any meaningful change in the amount of people who post in the wrong channel
that's a very good idea honestly 
yeah i feel like there's some inherent ambiguity in the name that's not easy to get rid of
but
makes it clear it's not about which language you ask the question in, but what language you're asking about
yeah
we're trying
maybe "preguntas de español" and "ask about english" if you wanna keep the language thing going
I think my suggestion might at least have a slightly higher chance of working but I leave it in your capable hands
Yeah maybe mari
Honestly the logical thing would be to do the oppiste
hmm i think it would be best if you would have ''spanish learning channels'' and have the channel names in english
given that its spanish speakers who ask about english
and vice versa
oh true
spanish learning channels
beginner
advanced
questions
that i think would be quite confusing
The channels are in the target language for immersion
I know
i think its better than this personally, because someone who comes here to learn another language is looking at what they understand
well
it might just be a tradeoff between immersion for users and how much work you guys have to do at the end of the day xd
but i agree if preguntas is not understoond, preguntas español wont be understood either
I think "ask about English" and "ask about Spanish" might be worth trying
Yea I'm down for that too
i think either that or "ask about Spanish" "pregunta de inglés" might give a slightly higher success rate
yes but vice versa
preguntas-español looks very very off lol
otherwise we will have the same problem
¿qué?
that could work
cómo que de la otra forma?
por qué debe estar en español lo de inglés?
y lo de inglés en español
because otherwise we will have the same problem
por qué
at least thats what i think
qué no se entiende de
"ask-about-english"
about es "pregúntame relacionado con esto"
what do they not understand about questions
que piensan que deben preguntar
en inglés?
que piensan que este servidor es para aprender español
sabiendo inglés
que no está para aprender inglés
i mean sure give it a go
Lo cambiaré a eso, y si va mal, pensamos otra cosa
Peace guys, if I can run the Spanish lecture 'game' tomrrow 3 pm est as usual, much appreciated. thanks!
i'll set a reminder so that i can open the channels for u and make an announcement 
Qué raro, rai me desmuteó, pero no me llegó el mensaje
Ryry lo cambió o pasó algo (?
You're probably the person that I got a bug for saying "I couldn't message this user telling them self mute expired"
Lol
Ohhh lol
Maybe you disabled PMs from non friends
Yep I forgot that I did that
;send 463728003038576640 test
I couldn't execute the command. I probably have a bug. This has been reported to Ryan.
darn
Maybe you disabled PMs from non friends
Ahora ya puede xd
Eso es un bug o simplemente es imposible que le llegue un mensaje a un usuario con los pms desabilitados?
yeah if they have pms disabled bots cant message them
Ohh I didnt know that
Haha nice new channel names, the simple changes really help
Ya, @glossy hatch
Ty
hola amigos, can someone open up da #📚・lectura-text-1 please? thanks!
Done @torn tide
thanks
hi! does #555480138016620554 have a schedule? Is a new topic posted weekly?
Roughly! But it depends on the schedule of who’s running it. It’s been on and off for the last few weeks
Thanks for the reminder actually, I’d lost track 
We’ll work on getting one going for this week 
okay, thanks!!
Shmuel was doing it, but I wonder if he got really busy at work again
Hey I have a question
Is it okay to swear ?
Okay cox it’s just the way I talk sometimes
🆙 | mr.ote leveled up!

oh ok
It’s like my way of emphasising the language anyway thanks that’s all
Swearing is ok sometimes, but verbal harassment is not
So like, "shit I forgot to do my homework" is ok
But "bitch get out of my channel" is not, so don't direct curse words at someone
Excessive cursing is also like super meh
"Fucking shit I fucking forgot my homework again" if every couple of messages are like this it'll be like ooook man chill a bit lol
And that's pretty much it
Yeah I figured
Aight lmao I can’t take anyone seriously if they acc curse after every word they say
Yeah well it's easier to bring up that kind of person as an example now lol
They do exist
It's annoying when we say like "Yeah you can" and then they do that and we say stop and they get like "man wtf you said I could fucking cuss"
¯_(ツ)_/¯
lol
Yeah I understand don’t worry I ain’t that typpa person
Like I cuss yes but not
Too much
Well it'll probably be ok
Worst case scenario the mods will just tell you to turn it down and you can be like ah ok chill got it
You definitely won't get straight banned
I got a thinking react lol
Aight dope thanks for the info
Yeah everything'll be ok
Hi
Is there any way to get the ability of joining full channels?
Because sometimes I see there are 6 people in a 5 people channel
Para invitar a otros en un canal lleno, se hace mediante &invite y el nombre de usuario: &invite DonVulpe -Team Bidet-, @rare geyser
Pídeles a la gente de ese canal que te inviten y te podrás unir.
i'm so confused about this server does anyone know where to start for learning spanish?
depends what you want to do. if you want to ask a grammar related question #📗・preguntas-lounge then it's that channel
Okay mods hear me out I have a dilemma I learned my native language and English at the same time and I speak both my native language and English everyday 😆 so which role or category should I be placed under ?
got it
uh idk if this is the correct channel to ask but can someone review and correct what i posted in #📝・correct-me-please
no, it's not, just be patient and someone will come round to correct you eventually
ah ok thx
This channel is generally for asking more about server related questions and suggestions and to talk to the mods if you're having issues with something server related.
If I'm allowed to ask server related questions, what is the purpose of these credits that I have on the server?
t!profile
📝 | Profile card for Loxi
you can use them to buy "badges" and the background, that's all xd
Huh. Interesting, thanks for the info.
You have to go to the tatsumaki site to do it
I don't think I've ever heard of that, to be honest.
it's completely unrelated to this server
and doesn't get you anything in this server
so you can completely ignore it
it's completely unimportant
Guys any idea why people sound like robots to me in voice chat , when I go to my other server it works perfectly fine
Do you live in Europe? The server is located in the US afair
Location might not matter
Yeah it shouldn’t
I talked to a guy in Denmark like 2 days ago and it was totally fine
might just be ya internet or stn boss
Maybe


@heady hazel This channel is for server-related questions and help requests. If you need to look up a word, use #🤖・general-bot please
Oh lo siento
No pasa nada
you can try creating a custom channel and lowering the bitrate.
It could also be discord. It's fucking up for me right now.
Well I haven't gone in vc, but the text chats were real laggy

True. You can't even log in sometimes. Or is it just me 
Hmm weird for me it’s just the voice chat everything else is okay
yeah it's offline
@raven niche Yup
We have to wait for rai to put it online
@dreamy folio help pls
I have a couple of questions for the mods: is there a particular "owner" of the server or group of owners? Who originally created it?
meriendas#6650
Abigail#2118
Serene#4677
rorcual#1017
Evil Psychiatric ↯#0553
cat 沈博智#5130
dutchgriffon#2580
Edsel Di Meo#6428
Nilfirith#4586
Dittar#2808
I don't remember who the original owner was. She was already inactive when I joined
Nozomi, I believe. Well, someone else created it and gave her the ownership almost straight away, I think
That sounds familiar
For curiosity, who is the owner of the server?
The legends say there is no owner
(The server was created a long time ago so I have no idea who the original was)
No idea
check pins here lol ryry explained it
Ryry is la RAE of this server
ohh I see
he's good people
honestly, ryry's bot Rai is what lets this server function so well without (?) an owner
ye
Although he mostly made it for his own language server (the japanese server) and we just stole it
wow
this is crazy
i mean not really, just a little
is cat a new mod? I don't recall seeing them before
f14s been a mod for a while
yeah he became a mod at the same time alpaca did (although he doesn't remember it and went inactive like a week later)
i got F14 mixed up with Niq (sorry to both of you)
So you can be admin without being staff?
yeah, staff is just our pingable role
we have the pingable role that any staff member can have. Then we have channel helpers, helpers, mods, and admins
any of the staff in any of the groups can either have or not have the pingable staff role, depending on their preference
I see!
I think it works that there's no owner
it's like a government entity and you guys are the officials
kinda
yeah exactly
or a public company and you are the board of directors
minus the democracy 
well i didn't say which country the government entity was in 😄
"government entity" never implied democracy lol
staff is basically like "active duty"
so we have some people who are maybe busy with school or work, but still check in occasionally to help out
ah nice
or were active in the past but on a break
or they are a conglomerate hive-mind 
or people who don’t put the staff role on because they don’t want randoms to dm them
^^That's why bizzle doesn't have the staff role one
^
They always DM Alex because they think he's a she

someone’s posted a link to stn in general delete it pls x
@tawdry zinc
Loxi?
can you delete it

How do i get more roles?
check #703075065016877066
Ehm, I’m not sure where to ask this but how do I get a “learning Spanish” tag that I sometimes see on people’s profiles? Or is that something you make yourself. Haha can you tell I’m a discord noob?
Or I guess how do you get tags in general?
Maybe that’s too broad a question?
Ohh okay. Thank you! Does that work for any tag I want to have?
if the roles exist in #703075065016877066 , you can just react accordingly
if not then use ;iam. although ;iam will work for all self assignable
or .iam
Okay. Thank you!
nw
okay. so i just reacted with the "spanish beginner", but i'm not sure how to check if it worked haha
ohh wait
i figured it out. wooops
click on your own name.
oh dear, lo siento i'm not usually this noob-like
np
do people even say noob anymore 😅
dunno
do the command urself. if you do nadeko. u can use the reactions accordingly
if rai, then type them each separetly
hello! does a person get alerted if their friend request is ignored rather than accepted?
I doubt it
Pusieron slowmode en los canales de principiante porque a veces van demasiado rapido para ellos, supongo (?
Yes
I see 😔
I'm here if someone needs help with the roles 👀
Como muchos ya habéis visto, se ha activado el Slow Mode durante 5 segundos (es lo mínimo permitido) en los canales #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante y #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner. Hemos estado recibiendo quejas y las hemos incluso presenciado. La gente habla demasiado rápido para lo que es realmente un canal para alguien que acaba de aterrizar en el idioma. De esta forma, se podrá crear un ambiente más ajustado a ellos, a su vez, los que poblaban los canales de principiantes con su rapidez, podrán finalmente dar el paso de estar más en avanzado y participar más. Gran parte del tiempo eran conversaciones entre nativos, de esta forma, podrán dar el paso y ganar más conocimiento. Mucha gente también ha mostrado molestia ante la falta de corrección en los canales avanzados, con vuestra alta presencia seguramente esas correcciones ''florezcan'' allí también. Así, conseguimos que todos tengan el entorno de aprendizaje más conveniente posible.
Aceptamos sugerencias, pero que contengan pie y cabeza. Quejas tipo ''Quitad los 5 segundos'' sin un tipo de argumento sólido, quedará totalmente descartado.
Esto es una prueba, dependiendo de cómo transcurra la semana, veremos si todavía hay que ajustar más la velocidad o no.
Just to try to translate for people who aren't as good with spanish:
As many of you have already seen, slow mode has been activated for 5 seconds (the minimum allowed) for #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante and #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner. We have been receiving complaints from users and have even witnessed them firsthand. People are talking too fast for what is really a channel for someone who has just started out in the language. This will create a more suitable environment for them, and in turn, those who were in beginner channels who were more advanced will finally be able to take the chance to participate more (in the advanced channels). A lot of the time it was conversations between natives, so they will be able to take the opportunity to gain more knowledge. Many people have also been bothered by the lack of corrections in the advanced channels, with your frequent activity, those corrections will surely "flourish" there as well. As a result, everyone will have the most convenient learning environment possible.
We will take suggestions into account, but only if they are reasonable. Complaints like "get rid the 5 second cooldown" without a solid argument are out of the question.
This is a trial. Depending on how the week goes, we'll see if we still need to adjust the time further or not.
I wasn't sure how to translate some things, but I think I got the point across well enough
if your goal is to have a channel for fresh-out-of-duolingo beginners then you can do that but 5 seconds is pretty arbitrary and doesnt actually solve anything. its just long enough to be really annoying but too short to actually slow conversations down, people will just write longer messages and nothing will be solved. id at least have more respect for a really long slowmode which would actually force people to slow down but 5 doesnt really make any sense
The only way to go lower than 5 seconds is with bots to my knowledge
trying to keep it as low as possible to reduce more complaints I'd assume
5 is just an annoyance
but it doesn't stop you from having a convo just like you could before
the main thing it reduces is spam I suppose
but thats not the purpose of the slowmode, or is it?
well if you just want people to not split their msgs then ig that works
but i dont see that would help someone who's a1
I think personally it's more of an issue of someone not understanding vocab or grammar
i assumed the goal was to discourage intermediates from using the channel
Como ya dijimos arriba, es una prueba, empezamos con lo mínimo.
Con lo mínimo hemos tenido ya quejas de los ''pobladores'' de los principiantes
Me interesa la opinión de la gente que le cuesta, si es demasiado rápido, subimos a 10
Ya puedo predecir que si subes el tiempo(?), la gente se quejará más
Many people have also been bothered by the lack of corrections in the advanced channels
Also if anyone reading this has this opinion I really hope you remember that this is a free service and the people correcting you are doing it without expecting anything in return. Talking here doesn't entitle you to anything
Thanks nexus
I haven't personally seen that, though I don't talk there much
but he's right for sure
Haber puesto un Slow Down más alto que el mínimo, hubiese desatado el infierno
La gente que reinaba e impedía que el canal fuese de principiantes, estaban como locos simplemente por 5 segundos
an I told them all they were overreacting
and*
idk if it's gang mentality, they're joking or what
El haber puesto más, habría sido todavía peor. El caso es ir moviendo a la gente que es avanzada al chat que les pertenece
but hopefully they read your message and understand a bit more
Y una vez que tengamos caras nuevas, principiantes de verdad y gente que de verdad les dé igual ayudar
Ajustaremos la velocidad para ellos
Podíamos haber puesto incluso 30 segundos, 15 o más
Pero sería una locura y creo que ya hubo demasiado drama por 5 segundos
as long as new people replace the ones who feel like they don't want to talk in the beginner channels anymore
Claro. El caso es que en principiantes estén principiantes, gente avanzada que no les importe ayudar y nativos que también quieran echar una mano
No gente que tiene un nivel alto y sólo les importe divertirse
El problema de esto no es Slow Mode, el problema cae en que la gente por alguna razón, que desgraciadamente desconozco, no entienden que la gente nueva no puede seguir tal ritmo
Un ritmo que ellos mismos se quejaban en su día
Pero veo que eso no lo ven
Es porque a la gente le gusta hablar allí y lo tratan como su propia chat, y cuando ocurre un cambio que hace que no puedan hacerlo más, se quejan
en mi opinión
Pero también espero que la gente a la que no le guste el cambio no sea muy numerosa(?)
Puede haber mil en contra
Mientras vea a un principiante tranquilo y hablando sin miedo
Me quedo con eso
Estoy de acuerdo. Espero que la gente entienda tu punto de vista y tu razonamiento
No creo que el cambio sea irrazonable dadas las razones que lo motivan
How serious is the problem of #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner being unsuitable for beginners because of fast-paced conversations? More often than not the typical #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner conversation looks like this:
Person 1: Hi
Person 2: Hi, how are you?
--------3 hours of silence--------
Person 3: Hi
--------3 hours of silence--------
repeat
I feel like these fast-paced conversations occur once every full moon and that they are a nice challenge for beginners to try to keep up with a conversation that doesn't consist of greetings and long periods of silence
I do agree that this probably pertains more to #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante
#🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner está bien de velocidad hasta que lo invaden los nativos o hay conversaciones dobles
Seguir eso ya no es tan fácil
That's what I mean by a challenge once in a while
Es mejor ser consistente a través de ambos canales, porque estoy seguro de que alguien eventualmente se quejará de lo contrario
They may be beginners but if they are always in their comfort zone they aren't going to improve
Challenge hasta que se vuelva costumbre hablar así allí
Dudo que alguien que no sepa mucho inglés quiera quedarse a leer una conversación a una velocidad de la luz
Es el problema que puede haber en Slow Mode, tener la misma velocidad puede impedir que no vean la real
But those fast-paced conversations are not an usual occurance in #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner
Siento que hay que darles el mismo confort que a los de #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante, pero puedo hablarlo con los demás
Se lo diré, si llegamos a algo te lo digo
honestly, by the time you read someone's message and type yours, most of the time the 5 seconds will already almost be up
I don't see why you would treat the same way channels that work differently. If these fast-paced conversations don't occur as often in #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner as they do in #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante I don't think both channel should receive the same adjustments
El caso es que no quiero llegar a que ocurra lo mismo que en #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante
No queremos más dramas cuando allí haya gente que no se quiera largar
Pero es buen punto de vista, ya lo he comentado
que es lo que dije antes
No quiero ser negativo, pero si alguien se queja de que las cosas no son iguales...
Lo que pasa con beginner es
Poca gente que aprende inglés, lo usa
Al final, acaba siendo la cueva de los nativos
no te equivocas
No digo que sean su culpa, pero, el día que haya más gente que aprenda inglés
Drama 2 surgirá porque la gente de beginner no se quiere ir
Pero es buen punto de vista, ya lo he comentado
What do you mean?
Que has sugerido algo bien, que tiene sentido y le he preguntado a los demás mods si podemos quitar el Slow Mode de #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner
I see
El caso es, ajustamos las cosas a la realidad y nos jugamos a que haya drama en #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner cuando mucha gente quiera aprender, o tratamos a todos por igual y evitamos drama
Hemos optado por la segunda, por ahora
Pero no veo el porqué no hacer la primera
But will there really be any problems when more beginners will want to learn and use the beginner channel?
Acabaría en #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante
Siento que es mejor evitar ese problema, que dejar que pase
Five seconds is very short. I don’t think it’s a problem in either channel. If it slows the channel down by 5% then it’ll help beginners a tiny bit. Just use the edit function often.
I'm not really aware of the situation in principiante. Is it really that bad?
Por desgracia, sí
sometimes yes
Ya se intentó por activa y pasiva que se movieran, entendieran la situación y no hacían caso
Hay que hacerlo por las malas
Más que principiantes, parece general-2
Five seconds is very short. I don’t think it’s a problem in either channel. If it slows the channel down by 5% then it’ll help beginners a tiny bit. Just use the edit function often.
It's not really a problem, but I saw Wolf say that it could be increased to more so that's why I commented
Slow Mode los queremos en los dos lados
Pero dependiendo, principiantes puede estar con 10 segundos y beginner con 5
Idk I think there are two primary issues that you guys have (and after this i promise ill shut up)
Siento que es mejor evitar ese problema, que dejar que pase
I agree that prevention is better than cure, but I don't think right now slow mode would change anything in beginner, so I don't see a particular reason to introduce something that there is no necessity for
No porque principiantes tenga 10 segundos, beginner tendrá 10
Puede variar. No veo la razón de ponerles el mismo tiempo
No veo la necesidad de poner 10 en un canal casi muerto
I see. My concern was that it would be increased
Pero sí en uno que hablan 10 a la vez
-
The entire point of discord is for people to talk, by trying to force people who want to talk not to, you're really fighting against the current. The idea of wanting people to talk less seems counterintuitive given the purpose of discord as an app for communication. I guess you want the beginner channels to be more like a classroom or something but you're undoing a year+ of norms with regards to what that channel is used for which is obviously not gonna go over without a hitch overnight.
-
I have a feeling (and I may be wrong) that you guys don't have a clear idea of what you want both channels to be. This server is huge and has people of all levels. By saying that principiante is for people at an A1 level you're essentially forcing A2-C2 + natives into avanzado, which is something many might not be comfortable with. I think you need a very clear idea of what you want the server to be, what purpose each channel has/who it's for and only then decide what the best method is of effectuating that because at the moment it just feels pretty confused
Point 2 is what I was thinking too
It's really hard to balance things given the wide gap of skill range
unless you restrict channels by roles
or smth
but even then that would likely cause issues
I have no idea what thought process / discussion went into your decision but you guys need a very clear idea of the purpose of your channels, otherwise you're just shooting in the dark really
I don't think there's an easy fix that solves absolutely everything, unfortunately
That's for sure
Sinceramente, por más claro que se hable, no llega a todas las entradas de la gente
Principiantes, tiene un nombre. Un nombre que se supone que todos debemos entender qué es
''Nuevo en el idioma''; ten paciencia
Paciencia en ese canal hay 0
there's other channels for people to speak in either language unrestricted though
Y cuando pides paciencia, poca empatía hay
= general
Y da igual cuántas reglas, cuántas veces discutamos y cuántas cosas se pongan
Gran parte del cambio está en el comprender de la gente
Si la gente entendiese realmente lo difícil que es estar rodeado de gente que habla como la luz
Quizás, no harían falta reglas, ni Slows ni nada
5 segundos ayer desató la furia en mucha gente, se pasaron toda la tarde quejándose de que su zona de confort había sido ''cambiada''
Sólo eso importaba, su confort y no los demás
Cuando eres nuevo en algo, lo único en lo que piensas es en andar y no correr. En estar en un ambiente seguro e ir a tu pequeño ritmo
Estar en esos canales como principiantes, lo único que te da ganas es de hacer clic e irte del servidor
Llevo tiempo aquí y veo las mismas caras en ese canal, se está espantando a la gente
De todos los canales que existen en este servidor, sólo hay 1 que debería ser paz y seguridad
Pero parece que eso sólo desata enfados por parte de muchos
I'd like to just share from the point of view of somebody who is no longer a mod and is therefore inconvenienced just like rest of you
ur one of us now
- I have never has the 5 second time stop me, so I have a hard time believing it impedes actual conversation
one of the peasants
This is what a conversation sometimes looks like in principiante:
Person A: cual películas te gusta? (ie a statement with many issues)
Person B: emoji
Perdón C; emoji
PersonB: emoji
Person C: emoji
Person B: holuwu
Person C: holiwis (all of this posted I. The matter of two seconds)
Person A now does not get acknowledged or receive any corrections
Honestly I'm surprised people complain that avanzado doesn't have corrections when all I generally see in principiante was people spamming emojis and stuff and all real attempts at practicing the language were buried
Yeah I don’t see any problem with a five second delay
When you take the time to actually write a sentence that is conversationally appropriate instead of just spamming, I really can't see that you'll be stopped that much
We have a permanent 15 second delay in our version of #💡・serious-topics on another server and at first people complained because people don’t like change but now no one complains anymore because everyone is used to it and the channel is better
If you need to add something, just edit your previous message
Besides, this last addition (and this one) both took me more than five seconds to type for each one
So you don’t even really need to edit
People just don’t like change, sorry this is kind of a rude thing to say after the long conversation above, but I think five seconds will help the channel, and I think if we get used to it it’ll be a positive benefit
I do try to help even if a mistake is made a couple of minutes before I go online. There are some natives and advanced learners that do provide help in that channel, and #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado is more loose in this regard.
Also, we can't blame other learners since they might not feel comfortable correcting others
Also from my experience, while 98% of the server doesn't care one way or the other, for every vocal dissenter who is complaining, there is a beginner speaker saying to themselves "well, maybe I'll give the channel one more try" after their first five attempts at having a conversation in the channel were buried under non-conversational spam
I like that. It's good to give people a space to actually practice the language
I think people saying things like "I'm never talking there again" despite this not being a major change are overreacting and not willing to give things a chance. To me, if anything, the only annoyances are not being able to immediately put an emoji on a new line so it's bigger, and not being able to split up my thoughts into multiple messages like I usually do, but I can learn to get used to it.
¿Podrían pasar la imagen original de este emoji? 
God bless you.

I think technically he talked to the mods first and is kind of working with them, but I agree that looks really spammy
It's probably worth making it look way less spammy
Looks like "copy paste send to everyone"
Jn's been pretty active here for awhile, so I'm pretty sure it's not spam
I'll talk to him again. I spoke with him about it a few days ago
I mean, I find it odd if you come to me with a "team" thing behaviour but ig if it's accepted I don't have much to do.
He doesn't speak English very well. You have to read between the lines a bit
Ive talked to a bunch of other peoole that have recieved similar messages from this guy
I've talked to him three times about messaging random people and even put a pin in #👫・language-exchange with his info just so he'll stop. If he messaged anybody else randomly, let us know
What?
I agree
No, you just have to use the bot
Each bot has slightly different commands but there's a short guide for them in #596718916256923649
And you can always get all the commands with each bot's help command or by just googling the bot and looking on their webpage
thanks
Hey sorry si no se pregunta aqui pero ¿como desactivo el sonido de cuando escriben en el chat? Suena cada vez que alguien publica algo a pesar de que no usan el @ conmigo
Ok muchas gracias!
pon que sea solo por menciones
por cierto que ese debería de ser el que esté por defecto 
Y pon eso mejor, si silencias el servidor nunca te notificará
Mira este post en #596718916256923649 #596718916256923649 message
Pregúntame si todavía tienes alguna duda
Cómo hago para meter al bot de musica a mi canal de voz?
ok thanks
si no funciona, dejanos saber y quizas alguien que sepa mas de los bots contestará lol
individual misspelled in rules, hope this was the right channel for this
ah religion instead of religious?
Gracias, @jaunty dove
no he literally means the word individual
ohh
Gracias 
Ya está cambiado, gracias de nuevo

@astral jasper
So are the Ask(County) roles just kind of a sign showing that you welcome questions or something? ¿Hay un lugar para hacer preguntas sobre paises?
puedes dar ping a esos roles si quieres saber si alguna palabra es comun en el lugar o otra cosa relacionada especificamente con la region
Bueno. Gracias

i'm triggered af by the last meme posted
but maybe i'm missing something
@kind river y'all are needed in #😂・memes
@rare hedge
the bot is is used to DM it, if you want to ping the staff, use @\Staff (ping for server help) next time :p
oh thanks. a lot has changed lol
Thank you for the report
Hi mods when will remove the slowmode in the beginner English channel
If no one has any significant and reasonable complaints or solutions to fix the problem that led to slowmode being enabled in the first place, it probably won't be removed
Todavía evaluamos las consecuencias de ese modo pausado y aún no hemos llegado a un acuerdo definitivo.
I'm back, and that's a very good reason 
That too lol
I like the slowmode
Why don't you put slowmode in general chat it's more active than others
Does it bother you? 5 seconds isn't that bad in my opinion
Because the point of the beginner channels is to provide a welcoming space for people who may not know a language as well to learn and practice
The purpose is to kind of slow down the conversation so the beginners have time to think and reply
Sometimes those channels go too fast and people get overwhelmed.
And they've complained about it in the past
ok
So that's the main reason why it's in place. Though I still think it's more of an issue in #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante than #🐟・ᴇɴ∕beginner , but that's a different conversation
you can always go to #🐬・ᴇɴ∕advanced your English is great
and you'll learn some new vocabulary 
ok
I liked it more before the slow 🤷♂️ but it's fine I guess
What made it better in your opinion?
What makes it worse now?
If you don't mind
Or do you not like it just to not like it because it's there?
@glossy hatch
I'm just curious lol
Because I think it impacts little to nothing in terms of conversation flow
Annoying orange#2700 is going around channels playing text to speech in the voice channels

<@&642782671109488641>
@crimson owl Despite sucking at spanish in the past I was never bothered or intimidated by the speed, and now it's a little annoying because I'm spamming space for 4 seconds waiting to send my message
That's my only complaint to but it doesn't happen that often for it to annoy me
That and emotes
You don't suck

Thanks, @deft dust
thank u for taking care of it
Sure, but what if someone finds it overwhelming and hard to talk in because of multiple of those fast paced convos going on at once that could easily fit in #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado
Where there are no restrictions at all
Being able to have those fast-paced conversations would make #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado less intimidating in the first place
Fair enough
I still have yet to see the slowmode have a super drastic downside though imo
True, but who has said anything positive about it
Ni siquiera con Slow Mode la gente era incapaz de ir a #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado.
Así que, creo que 5 segundos no ha cambiado que ahora la gente le tenga menos miedo
Si cuando empiezas a aprender algo a un ritmo de la velocidad de la luz, te aseguro que ni siquiera habrá #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante ni menos #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado
Primero hay que ir lento y una vez que tienes un ritmo normal, vas a más. Tener que acostumbrar a la gente a correr antes de andar ya has visto en qué ha terminado
En quejas de que era imposible hablar
Desde el principio de estar aquí nunca quise un entorno así de lento, pero para gustos los colores
¿Te gusta que vayan rápido?
sí
¿Que escriban 10 personas a la vez y no entiendas nada?
Cómo que aprendo sin eso
¿Que para cuando terminas de escribir cambiaron de conversación?
Nunca ha habido 10 personas a la vez en el canal
Así no se aprende. Eso, lo único que hace es darte cuenta de que eres un inútil y de que tendrás que esperar más tiempo para participar
I've been in an actual spanish server before and that's a problem I had
sure it can be beneficial but it is hard to keep up
Si no participas en convos rápidas cómo que aprendes a participar en una convo normal
Te quedas mirando la pantalla como todos hablan y tú no puedes decir nada
¿Cómo has aprendido a correr?
but when you know next to nothing, what are you supposed to do in that case?
¿Ya de bebé te pusiste a dos piernas?
because there are people who are in that boat
¿O no gateaste?
Utilizar un traductor, supongo, alex

Esa no es la solución
La solución es darles un pequeño hogar donde puedan hablar relajados
incluso cuando mi español apestaba odiaba las convos lentas
sin velocidad, no queda mucho por disfrutar de la conversación
Es cansón
Eso es gusto tuyo
No es lo que necesita alguien para estar calmado y poder escribir un poco
Alguien que acaba de aterrizar, quiere que se tengan paciencia, pueda darle tiempo para leer, escribir sin prisa
Y no tener a 5 personas hablando como la luz
Lo que hará es ponerse triste y se irá
i don't see why you's can't all migrate to avanzado if you want it to be fast
Están acostumbrados a estar ahí
porque tami y agus me odian
No sé por qué no aprovechais la oportunidad
it's dead half the time lol
Siempre se dice que #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado es difícil
like me
Tomad esta oportunidad para mezclarlos con los nativos
should i be concerned now alex 
Pero ahí no está la gente con quien hablo xd
¿Llámalos?
'you's' plural, pack all your things and move there 
Debes de entender, que aparte de que casi todos nos conocemos y divertimos
Somos un servidor para aprender y tenemos que darles a todos el sitio que merecen
Entonces por qué tomó tanto para activar el slowmode si es tan crucial
La gente que es nueva es la que más os suele aburrir sólo porque no tiene nivel
Y aburre, y no gusta, y hay que tener paciencia
Nadie os obliga a que los ayudéis, pero tampoco intentéis quitarles el único sitio que tienen
from what I've seen, even before this change, although it's unfortunate, a lot of conversations with people who are very new to the language don't go very far
Porque esperamos a que haya una oleada de quejas
probably cause they knew it was risky and that everyone would bitch about it, as is reality now 
Si viene uno random, pues ...
though tbf ik some people are just here because they're in school

and want hw help
those people go to the question channels once and then probably leave lol
they're not the ones in principiante
Lo que pasa, es que estáis acostumbrados a escribir vuestros mensajes en varias líneas y los 5 segundos no os dejan
Aparte de eso, no sé qué quejas serias ha habido al respecto
tru
No es que odie el cambio, sólo quería saber el porqué de todo esto
that's my only complaint
Por ahora, no he presenciado ni una queja ''mala''
because I split up my messages
and to put emotes on the next line so they're big
but those are minor
El porqué es simple, hacer de #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante un canal para la gente que le cuesta
Hubo quejas y se puso sobre la mesa
tbf azada.. you used to hog principiante like crazy and you and a bunch of others caused a shitstorm like everyday, it was mostly emojis and shitposting and it put most people (including me) off talking there entirely, so you really don't have a say in the way principiante is gonna be 
Se tomó medidas y está en proceso de prueba
just sayin you're a troublesome one you 
well maybe
those are probs my only complaints. I don't like not being able to split up messages and not being able to put bigger emotes down in a timely manner
and sure call it lazy or stupid or whatever, but eh, i just decided to chat more in #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado so i suppose its a better for me in the end. I need to learn more slang and informal spanish. then again, i havent been as active as i used to be tho i probs will be now.
and that's still one of my fears, that people move away from the channel
leaving it dead potentially
though ofc not everyone will care
how about a new channel entirely, mega beginner 
No
lmao

super ultra mega semi advanced beginner with a hint of advanced
#Español_intermedio is an equally bad idea since it would just divide up people even more
plus it depends on what your definition of intermediate is
El plan es dejar #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante para la gente nueva o que le cuesta y #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado dejar ya de ser la casa del terror y hacerlo un ambiente más diverso; nativos, gente intermedia y avanzada
Ese es el plan
Antes, la gente intermedia y avanzada se escondía en #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante asustando a los nuevos y #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado era el chat de los nativos
hmm, avanzado has always been a fucking haunted house for me hahaha, idk, its always intimidated me. i know i can do it, but its just
sometimes
👻
For me it's more that the people that frequent that channel hate me
Claro, pero, así os sentisteis cuando eráis nuevos en #🐸・ꜱᴘ∕principiante
Seguro teníais pánico, pero ahora es como un canal normal
Si hacéis lo mismo con #🦎・ꜱᴘ∕avanzado, ya no queda nada
it was only scary cause natives were the only ones that talked there lol
Claro
Si vais en grupo entre vosotros y os mezcláis, veréis que no da tanto miedo y aprendéis una tonelada de cosas
Hacemos las cosas por vuestro bien, aunque a veces os cueste verlo
probably how #🐬・ᴇɴ∕advanced felt for spanish speakers
No hacemos cambios por ''joder''
Los hacemos para que todos os sintais cómodos y tranquilos
advanced used to be shitpost haven and now it's dead most of the time lol damn have things changed
it was the UK chat
Aunque, a veces nos quedamos sin cuello por algunos 😄
well, i think they just ended up going to #☕・general
mhm shit i even forgot about that
and now all of the shitposting is in #☕・general
i complained about the slow mode only on the first day but now i dont mind it 
ya me ha quedado claro tu razonamiento, Renzo, y me di cuenta de que no me molesta el slowmode lol
they got over it eventually they just had to be dramatic about it first lmao
Quisiéramos de corazón poder arreglar todo lo que no os gusta, pero a veces es imposible
Sólo quisiera que eso se trasmitiera
So what is the server etiquette in a situation like right now when there are 14/25 people in the Spanish General HD channel. Is it kind of a jump in if you feel comfortable, or are those usually groups that everyone already knows each other?
you can jump into any voice channel you want man
or you can start a new one if you feel like it
if you are new then just jump around various voice channels to see if you find a group that you are comfortable
¡Gracias!

Hey, the advanced spanish text channel is mispelled, it says abrazado (to hug), haha

p sure that’s a joke pal
^
I want to bring up the idea of adding pronouns as roles again
I think this overall has a postive outcome because if more people use the roles it makes it easier for those that are trans
Because yes, you can add pronouns in your name or discord status but that just makes more people assume that you are trans and this can lead to something worse
I remember hearing that people should just not assume what a persons pronouns are, which is true but in reality that is always going to happen
Also there is no harm in doing this at all, if anything the people that are against lgbt+ people will be exposed and we can get rid of these type of people
I left the server and joined again, this got rid of my server mute. Ignore any messages I may have sent to you guys, sorry!
Which pronouns should be added?
And how do you justify where to draw the line if somebody comes in and says their pronoun is something that nobody in the entire world has ever used before?
Do we only choose English pronouns?
What about xi or whatever that one is? It's relatively well accepted but it's definitely not English
How would we handle "I want you to put in such-and-such pronoun. It's common in my country but it's slightly different from "she" in English because it can also apply in X case"
I think that if we can solve these types of problems, the mod team might be willing to do it
But I remember from the last time it was brought up that it ended up being an extremely complicated issue
Por vs Para
I will buy the shoes for you is
Voy a comprar los zapatos para ti
?
I am asking a mod?
About the difference between por and para?
Go to #📗・preguntas-lounge
This channel is for asking questions about server administration etc
Okay, My bad
It's ok!
Hi, uhm... There is one user sending links of a shared drive to do ¿language exchange? and trying to move people to his own "language exchange server". I don't know if this is allowed, so I comment this here.
Thanks, the mods will take care of it
Thanks, the user is #04 Prince Jn
@astral jasper Hecho, gracias
Thank you.
hey! I am wondering why I can't talk in any channels
I think I got banned in crossfire - I was @-ing the guy who was spamming us
in hopes he would stop
I unmuted you
no worries
@little kelp 
@low vortex i think putting they/them he/him and she/her should be fine
To be honest I've never encountered a single person that uses a pronoun like xi
and didn't also use another pronoun
I know that they/them doesn't really work in Spanish but if a person does go buy they/them and only those pronouns you can them what they would want to be referred to as in Spanish
Maybe also adding another role that says "other pronoun" might suffice?
If you do encounter such a situation
Hey mods - don't want to do anything wrong so thought I'd ask first :) I'm working in developing a Spanish learning app... Would I be able to give access to users here for free? The idea being they just give feedback to improve it.
No issues if not! Just a thought I had :)
@warped nymph We'll discuss it with the moderation team
@tawdry zinc thanks :)
sounds cool that I could become a beta tester for something that could become big one day
@warped nymph Can we take a look at this app you are developing already?
@low vortex what do you think of my proposal?
Well it's really up to the team. I was just wanting more information so we could discuss it more informatively
Okay thank you !
🙂

Hola can a mod tomorrow open the lectura room, will be running the spanish lecture 'game' if so thanks (3pm est to 4:30)
jejeje
w-why is game in quotes
Idk
Idk why he doesn't call it sesión or sesión de lectura
Not that it's bad but yeah lol
Game 
@tawdry zinc sure
Not writing how to get the free game just yet obviously until i get the green light :)
IOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/langlandia-spanish-game/id1310343081
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.langlandia.langlandia
The most fun way to learn a language! Instead of wasting time on an addictive game, why not learn a language using an addictive game? This is the first ever app to learn Spanish that is designed like an actual video game.
Trap your first beast!
To survive Langlandia and adva...
I saw a post on reddit about this game, was that you?
@warped nymph We've had a look at your app and we think it might be a good tool for our users.
We'll allow you to mention/advertise it in our #🍁・general-2 channel in order to find some people to help you test it.
Please, be respectful of users who are not willing. I'd also like to remind you not to spam advertise it.
@tawdry zinc thanks! I'll open up some free spots for users and just post once :) appreciate it. It should be coming over the next couple days
@deft dust it was :) we are trying to really test it out before we go hard in it. Currently it's just a couple of friends and a side project. But we are all passionate about it and it would be awesome if it kicked off
@polar yew how long has it been?
I'll talk to the mods
@polar yew Te quitaré el mute pero no hagas tonterías de nuevo
Thank you
@deft dust Thanks
hi! so i used the ; q feature on #📗・preguntas-lounge and then once my question was answered i wrote ; q a.
but when i did ; q the first time , i thought i did it wrong and ended up deleting my question and then typed my question again and put ; q again. i guess it worked the second time because i got a sticker, but the sticker was a "2 sticker". Does that mean that it thinks i have 2 questions i was trying to get answered? bc i entered the question twice and typed ; q twice, even though i didnt get a sticker the first time? (ahh this question seems complicated sorry
)
2 means your question is number 2 on the list [it doesn't mean anything really]
ohhh phew okay i thought i broke the system or something
I did once 
oof, haha thank you!
La primera vez que escribiste ;q no funcionó porque escribiste mal
Y editaste el mensaje
Editar no va a hacer que te añada la pregunta. Debes escribir bien la sintaxis a la primera
ah ya veo. lo entiendo, muchas gracias!
I get it Lo entiendo / Lo pillé *

I'm trying to invite a friend to this server, but when I send them an invite this pops up. The thing is they haven't even been in the server before...
eso me pasó a mí también y no sé arregarlo

what's their name? @polar yew
花 ͔͔͔#0900
I asked a mod, and they don't seem to be on the ban list, so I'm not sure why unfortunately. Maybe one of them can help
Thank you
If you give us their ID number it will be easier to find them @polar yew
725172147298893824
Gracias
How do you even find your own ID number?
I'm not seeing their ban anywhere
This happened to me too when I accidentally left
Idk, wolf kept inviting me and it eventually worked
