The hub of a community is important

icy reef
#

Bring back #polycraft-discussion as part of Chill-Out Corner

#

Don't let the PolyCraft community be completely dispersed & returning players wonder what happened

hallow hound
#

What if we made it a thread in #general ?

#

This server has too many channels

#

True

#

But the PolyCraft server is no longer officially sponsored by Midjiwan. I don't think it is appropriate to have a chat about it if the ties are cut

#

I defer to @harsh geode and @deft meteor on this. I trust their judgement

#

A thread should be enough, if anything
The channels were too quiet to warrant having one

It's already a pity that over three years of history are locked away in a poison cupboard, inaccessible to everyone

#

I hear you. I spent a lot of time on PolyCraft. It had an amazing community

#

How recently did it get canned

#

I am surprised

#

Community was strong & dedicated from what I remember

#

very recently, server shut down november 25th, channels were deleted yesterday(?) and we announced the shut down around the start of november

That sucks

words from zoy

#

NoOoOo

icy reef
#

it was shut down on the 26th

then it would be only fair to decouple the PolyCraft channels from this server instead of wiping them from the face of the earth.

harsh geode
#

?

icy reef
#

What I said, stop robbing people of the past three years of their lives just because you feel like historical revisionism

#

Make all PolyCraft channels accessible outside of this place

harsh geode
#

im still not following

icy reef
#

Export the channels to a standalone discord server or at least release them in file form

harsh geode
#

to another discord server is impossible

#

to files, well there is so many message its an insane amount of processing/time to get them

icy reef
#

Not all channels are equally long

harsh geode
#

I am confused what you want from the channels

icy reef
#

Not have them locked away

#

You could also make the archive read-only

harsh geode
#

doesnt answer my question

#

what is that you want to read in the channel?

#

i could prob ask zoy to have channel as read only for a month or so

#

but not permamently

icy reef
#

I want everything to be preserved for everyone who partook or might just be curious

harsh geode
#

permanently?

icy reef
#

Yes (at least longer than a month or even a year)

harsh geode
#

got that long the a text file of message would be best, but not sure how long that would take to compile

#

around 250000 message i think

#

in total across the public channels

icy reef
#

There are methods available online to export channels to html files, that could keep the form

harsh geode
#

i know, but it is still rate limited by discord

icy reef
#

#polycraft-updates shouldn't have too many messages

harsh geode
#

is that enough for what you want though?

#

that is the only channel to hvae ben saved over multiple servers aswell

icy reef
#

Huh?

harsh geode
#

with publishing annoucements

#

and a few servers have followed it

icy reef
#

With that "follow an announcement channel on another server" feature?

harsh geode
#

ye

icy reef
#

I haven't seen that in action

And if this was the new channel of Polycraft discussion?

#

What if we made a thread in #other-games for Minecraft?

high axle
#

That could be a good idea if there’s enough interest for it

#

Especially if there’s interest in doing something unofficial

Nope
