Hey folks, just letting you know that the expiration timers for warnings have been doubled.

It will now take 4 weeks for one warning point to expire, and 8 weeks for two warning points to expire.

We have revamped the Localized Servers system to no longer include "Community Servers". Now the only servers that will be listed there will be those that meet the relevant requirements.

Hi everyone. We’ve recently made some changes to our punishment system.

Previously, if someone had been permanently muted after appealing their first mute, that was it, they would stay muted forever.

We’re now going to be allowing a second appeal chance to happen if it’s been over 6 months from the second mute. The moderation team reserves the right to deny this appeal attempt if they deem the mute reason too severe.

Hello @here,
I'm here to announce that this server will temporarily be locked down until <t:1672149600:F> to encourage users that they should be spending this holiday season with their families/friends or anyone else they so chose.
This will allow <@&943267876788375652> and <@&943267990542094346> some deserved time off. This will mean NO NEW TECH SUPPORT TICKETS can be opened

Hey <@&836216498032607252>, we've recently made some changes to the server, listed as follows.

Server Rules

  • Rule 4 (now requires you to add a message warning besides spoilers for loud videos.)
  • Rule 7 (Sharing any form of NSFW material (cropped or full pornography, drawings or photos with suggestive poses, fetishes, gore, NSFW descriptions, etc.) is prohibited.)
  • Rule 13 (adds Common sense to the rule.)

User Presentation

  • Level ranks changes:
    Levels ranks have been lowered to 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50/Max from 0, 1, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100/Max for moderation purpose and user accessibility.
    We have started to include Badge ranks that would include custom badges for ones that have reached level 50/Max rank! (Thank @green oxide for the drawn badges peeposalute)

  • Channel changes:
    We have merged bot-commands and adventure-bot into one as #bot-commands.
    color-roles has been updated to #utility-roles/utility-roles due to the introduction of Badge ranks.

vagrant moon
# vagrant moon Hey <@&836216498032607252>, we've recently made some changes to the server, list...

After hearing the feedback of the rule changes, especially with rule 7, we have updated it to make it more understandable. We apologize to anyone who felt outright targeted by the rule change as that wasn't our intention. Our intention was to ban the specific posts that were falling under the suggestive or NSFW category. We saw what the rule meant on our end prior to posting it, but your feedback has been greatly appreciated in having us revise the rule to properly reflect how it should be.

Hello <@&836216498032607252>, It's been a while since i used this huh?

New year ne- wait, its September already?

As you can see, the Discord logo of this server has been changed to reflect that we're in Site-02. So you better behave or you'll get tossed into ||[REDACTED]||'s testing chamber.

Information Forums

We have merged the hr-info-contact, job-listings and partnership-applications channels into one Forums channel called #1266667711573000212. This also includes a new channel called Discord Ban Appeal where you or a friend can appeal their Discord ban.

Last Note

That may be it for now. I'll see you in a few years when I use the ping again, or very early if something happens.

Announcement Channel Changes!

Hey everyone,
To help maintain the focus of our announcement channels, we'll be transitioning what was formerly "Stream Announcements" to https://discord.com/channels/330432627649544202/843456188363833364!
This will now serve as the primary announcement channel for most social media posts, stream notifications, and other content which doesn't quite fall into the category of game news.
-# This change was originally a suggestion! If you're level 20 or above, you can make your own in https://discord.com/channels/330432627649544202/555474008716607514.

The way to access Plugin Development Channels is changing!

Hello <@&836216498032607252>.

Important Policy Changes

Hey everyone,
We've recently seen a bit of a rise in toxicity around the server.
In response to this we've made a few internal policy changes and filter updates, which includes blocking the word 'retard' and its associated abbreviations.
We do continue to allow respectful debates around game balance, additions and other SCP related content, but please remember to keep it civil and stick to criticising the argument, not the person behind it.
Should you have any questions about any of the above, don't be afraid to reach out via @lavish wagon!

Hi <@&836216498032607252>,
From <t:1766260800:D> until <t:1767470400:f>, we'll be making this server read-only to encourage you folks to spend this holiday with your friends and family.
This will also give our Moderation team a well-deserved break, along with the rest of the studio!

Hi <@&836216498032607252>,@here, we are officially back online!
I hope you all had a wonderful new year and a restful holiday.
While the Discord has been closed, we've taken the opportunity to make some changes, namely to the information channels, which have received a new modernised look and been moved to a new and very fancy id:guide!
This replaces the old 'information' forum as the centralised place for useful links and information for various studio functions.
We've also made some changes to https://discord.com/channels/330432627649544202/472406571247337483 to give people more freedom with formatting, make our rules clearer, and better explain the advertisement process.

We have changed our warning and appeal system! Please be aware of the new policy:

Users only have 1 chance to appeal, 2nd mute is permanent
If users are muted they must appeal. If their appeal passes, they are unmuted 4 weeks after they sent their appeal
One warn lasts two weeks. If they are warned a second time, the timer is reset, and the 1st warn is removed after 4 weeks of the 2nd warn, then the 2nd is removed 2 weeks later.
When someone is unmuted, their third warn will be removed, and they are in an "automatic probation" where they must be on their best behavior for 4 weeks until warnings are cleared.

Hello @everyone SCP: Secret Laboratory has decided to #StandWithSCPRU. For those who may not know, #StandWithSCPRU is a movement that the SCP community is standing behind to prevent a threat to our beloved Russian based community. For context: currently a Russian creator is trying to copyright claim the SCP logo. This has implications and effects on all Russian SCP related content containing the logo. This situation affects those who find ourselves enjoying the SCP universe and the content it involves. Wiki, Games and Videos. To prevent this claim a gofundme page has been set up to gather funds with the goal of fighting this claim and preventing the potential damage to the community at: https://www.gofundme.com/f/scp-legal-funds

Let's stand behind our community support the members world wide so that we all can continue enjoying it freely.

Hello everyone! Especially you <@&556636240271638531>s GWeulixWave

We've got a new channel called #art-discussion now, to help make enjoying all your lovely artsy creations a bit smoother. Now when you post, those who wish to comment, compliment, or (if the creator asks for it) critique it, can do so in #art-discussion

This essentially makes it so those who'd like to see your lovely art can simply click on #art-showcase and scroll through, without big discussions or comments in between!

Hey, folks -

We were discussing things related to the subreddit lately, and it occurred to us that one of the main things we established it for - devs talking to players - hasn't really been capitalized on yet. As such, I worked with the moderators and decided to schedule an AMA, featuring yours truly! You can pop in and ask any question you'd like (within reason) and I'll answer it as best I can.

The thread opens for submissions on Saturday 18, 2020. I'll answer as many as I can before bed. Feel free to ask anything about the development process, myself, or things related to the game. I won't be able to disclose stuff that's currently confidential, but I'll answer every question that I can feasibly do.

After reviewing the state of Ranked Category, we have decided to rework the Ranking system as it has split the community and has made some of the Ranked users "hostile" against the others for not having a rank role or in some rare cases, having the level 10 role.

We have decided to go back how it was in the past and have there only be one obtainable role. But this time you have to reach level 20 instead of level 10.

Short Q&A
Q: Why did the Ranked Category get reworked?
A: As we said above, It has split the community and has made some of the ranked users to harass non-ranked and even level 10 users.

Q: What perks does the new rank role have?
A: The new ranked role "Chaos Insurgency - Ranked" is obtainable by reaching level 20 on !rank and it allows you to livestream, send images in general-discussions, a channel that allows you to send suggestions for the discord server, a channel to post memes and joke about Northwood's staff members, voice channels that's only viewable by having the rank and the usage of external emojis (if you have nitro that is).

Q: What does "Class-D Personnel - Member" do?
A: The role is obtainable by joining the server and it allows you to change your nickname and have image perms in scp-discussion.

The Ranked rework has been launched today so if you didn't obtain one of the roles then message one of the staff about it.
If you have any suggestions for changes/fixes on the new system then feel free to ask one of the staff members as well, or preferably use #discord-suggestions .

vagrant moon
#

Side note
This is an experiment that we're testing on, if it doesn't work then we'll just remove the ranks completely or revert them back as how they were.

bold owl
#

With the dissatisfaction of the community, I do not want to go against it with such reworks

However, there were many issues with the system in place, hencewhy we made a form for you to voice your opinion so we can hopefully come to a compromise, and solve the issues while keeping the community happy

While a full extreme revert might be infeasible and will only restart the issues, some things if they are asked might be reverted

Every opinion counts

After listening to your complains, as you have already seen, we are somewhat reverting some of the changes made.
We have decided to switch the roles to 10, 20, 30 and then 50, 75 100.
We chose this path as we had too many roles to deal with amongst other things

  • Level 10s will obtain access to Livestream Perms, Image Perms in scp-discussion, External Emojis, Viewing of staff-memes and discord-suggestions.
  • Level 20s will obtain access to staff-memes, discord-suggestions and Image Perms in general-discussion

If you have any suggestions for changes on the new version of the Ranked then feel free to ask one of the staff members or use #discord-suggestions.

#

If you have a missing role or a role that doesn't match up to your level then ask one of the staff members to get your role back.

Hello everyone, today our bot, @rich sierra, has been updated and now includes the following-
You will now earn 25-40 EXP from 15-20 EXP for !rank's experience!
New profile and rank backgrounds have been added!
And lastly, NotSoBot Commands have returned!

vagrant moon
#

We have updated Rule 6, so make sure to re-read the rule.

vagrant moon
#

Users that are Level 10 can now post images/links in #general-chat instead requiring to get Level 20.

vagrant moon
#

We have decided to allow a few bot commands to be used in #general-chat with the following-
!hug
!rep
!rps
And lastly, the entire !cc list

vagrant moon
#

We've added a new role under the name "Member - Level 3" while the level 0 role has been renamed to "Guest - Level 0".
The new role is to prevent people from posting suggestive content after joining in, so now they have to become Level 3 to be able to post images and links now.
The new Member role has the ability to Livestream and use External Emojis.

If you have the Guest role while over Level 3, ask a Discord staff member to give you the new Member role.
And keep in mind that Level 10 and over is still required for #general-chat and #scp-discussion for image and link permission.

As some of you may be aware, #meme-zone was recently locked down due to

  • Disregard of what staff say and rules already in place
  • Toxicity/NSFW
  • Disrespect of staff trying to maintain order
  • Outright threats and abuse of said staff.

We would like to remind people that a majority of staff at Northwood are volunteers, they choose to be here to try and better both the game and community as a whole. If these issues continue further restrictions will be applied.

Rule 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 12 have been updated.

Well, we got quite a few changes around here, lets explain.

The main category channels have been shuffled a bit, nothing major.
A new channel has been created called #media-posts to discuss, post images, videos and such. Memes are not allowed in this channel.
A ranked category has been created to store in #staff-memes, #discord-suggestions and #discord-suggestions-chat to keep the main category clean.
Lastly, #meme-zone has been changed. You can only post images and any attempts at speaking will be automatically deleted.
This is to make the channel true to its name rather than having it as a discussion channel most of the time.

vagrant moon
#

Regarding the current event that has happened in Lebanon, we will be disallowing memes related to it for two weeks as to pay respects.

vagrant moon
#

We have made a small change to the art section of the chat, You are required to reach level 3 to post in #art-showcase but you can still post art in #art-discussion without any level restrictions.

vagrant moon
#

Guests are now able to post images in #art-showcase and #meme-zone as a test, if it goes well then we will keep it as how it is. If it doesn't then we'll return it as how it was.

vagrant moon
#

Guests are now able to voice communicate in Voice | Guest and Gaming | Guest.

We changed the level roles a bit so you can detect which role starts and ends at.

Users with Patreon/Twitch Subscribers, Nitro Booster and Official Partner role will be keeping the permissions.

Howdy folks. Now I don't know about you guys, but these Videos that crash discord are an absolute pain.

Luckily after some digging, we found a post that described in a fair amount of detail what the issue is (https://old.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/khuu1r/how_to_avoid_the_discord_crashing_video/) - in short, its a fairly obscure codec that the video swaps to halfway through. If you turn hardware acceleration off, it should prevent most of these crashing videos. That post also explains a few quirks that several people have found while trying to figure it out themselves, so feel free to give it a read.

We have created a new channel to use the !adventure command in #808367952155901992 to prevent #bot-commands from being flooded with its command.

vagrant moon
#

We have add about 60 Flag Badges on the bot for 45000 credits.

vagrant moon
#

Some changes have happened, so lets talk about them.

#meme-zone is now back to its former glory by removing its gallery/image-only cog (you can now talk in the channel as before).
#media-chat has been renamed to #gaming-room to post content related to videos games without disturbance (simple).

Gallery cog will now be used as a "riot control" tool if #meme-zone ever gets chaotic/hectic again.
We hope these changes will be welcoming here.

Hello, you all Discord Folk

I believe it might be time to me to hand over the Discord Manager position after quite a few years of working here, as I sadly need to move on to new matters
I shall be passing on the role to Nathan, who more than deserves it, and hope the Discord and game has a long future of smooth sailing still
But well, I find it a happy conclusion to all this time, and am glad to have seen this place grow from 1000 members to what we have nowadays, even if lately I might have not been as publically active
But, as I said, I hope to check back in here from time to time and see this place better than ever

with that, I shall be signing off

<@&836216498032607252> Hello people, we have opened #893451025439158292 and #893451193924354048 for you to make suggestions on what scary stuff should be added in this year's Halloween update! Level 10 role and above is required to gain access to the channels.

<@&836216498032607252> Hello! We have made a bit of changes to the discord.

#server-roles and #server-rules have been re-written entirely.

We have shuffled around the positions of some channels.

There are new leveling roles and names!

All users will now have the <@&894611457562521671> role.
The Class-D Personnel role is now gone.
Member (Lvl 3-9) has been replaced with <@&894664187421274122>. This role is required in order to view meme-zone.
Safe SCP (Lvl 30-39) has been changed to <@&894664176637710468>.
Euclid SCP (lvl 40-49) has been changed to <@&894664146497437716>.

If you notice that you are missing a level role, do !rank in #bot-commands and inform a discord staff member.

Also, we have increased XP gain to 70-100 because of Spooky Month.

Hi folks,
We're hitting a bit of a role rate limit at the minute (oh hey, new update, new people) - So #advertisements is, temporarily, not accepting new entries. This should only last a few hours, really, but we'll keep you posted.

<@&836216498032607252> Hello! We have revamped the way tech support operates within this server.

The tech-support channel will be archived, and will be replaced by a ticket system. Tickets can be made in #897963109480800276.

We have also created #897643267473145866, which will be constantly updated with, as it says in the name, common issues and their solutions.

It is important to fully read #468799722933714964, #468799519811829761, and #897643267473145866 before creating a ticket, as well as the blurb in #897963109480800276 itself. If you create a ticket for an issue listed in one of those sections, you will be told to go read it and your ticket will be closed.

Since we don't want to eliminate the regular userbase that helps out in tech-support, we have created a new role, <@&897708789690667029>. This can be acquired via reaction role in #897963109480800276, and allows you to view and type in all tickets. Only Technical Assistance, Tech Support, and the member who created the ticket will be able to close it. Abuse of this Ticket Assistance system will result in harsh punishments.

Well, that about wraps it up. This system should help to reduce the clutter of tech-support and allow all members to have their support requests not be buried.

Also, if you make a ticket about a global ban, you will be blacklisted without warning. So don't.

#

We've tested it a lot, but things still happen, so do let us know if something isn't working properly.

<@&836216498032607252> Howdy folks,

Following up on last night's announcements, we've decided to replace the Ticket Assistance role with a revamped Technical Assistance system.

You will now be able to apply directly for the role. This is NOT a staff position within Northwood Studios, it is only a helper role.

We're not expecting everyone to know everything, so if you are accepted, there will be a lengthy trial period in which you will learn the skills of the trade.

Applications are locked to level 10 and can be found in #898221259190599711.

@here Hey everyone, just want to let you know that there is a new hijack bot that's messaging people claiming that their face got leaked, in order to get you to click on the unloaded image they sent. Clicking on the link will result in a normal phishing scam, but you are at higher risk if you view the message on Android.

Make sure to block and report these bots, and inform one of our Discord moderation staff about it as soon as possible.
Here is an example of what the bots will send to you:

#

PS: Do not click any "free nitro drops" or "CSGO free items trade" from random people either, they're most likely scam bots made to hijack your account too.

~~Our #897963109480800276 Ticket bot has decided not to play nice with us, meaning that we can't currently open new Tickets in either category. We're going to reset the bot approximately 24 hours from now, just giving currently open tickets time to be finished off.

Hello everyone,

After months of internal planning and deliberation, the Discord Staff team have decided upon an overhaul to the structure of this server. This overhaul is larger than previous updates, and as such requires us to lock down the server for a little while so we can apply these changes.

Our focus has been largely geared towards how we want the server to "feel". We're focused on making changes that make this server seem more like a server befitting a game studio, and less reminiscent of a generic community server. Chief amongst these changes is the introduction of an LFG system, which allows you to find people to play SCP:SL with, and then create a voice chat to play with them. There are many other minor changes, such as further changes to our advertisements system.

For those of you above level 30, head on over to #discord-suggestions if you have changes you'd like to see made. Please keep this feedback respectful, without simply going "revert to old server".

raven badger

<@&836216498032607252>

pale jackal
#

To be specific, rules 10 and 12 are new.

vagrant moon
#

Why was the server changed?

So for starters, it just looked messy on our end and it was complicated to change / edit stuff when we wanted to find the proper channel.

Why were the discussions channels separated?

We wanted to have the channels more themed toward SL itself together in their own category (including general chat, as its the main channel), while the other, more miscellaneous channels have been moved into their own category.

Are the channel names going to remain how they are?

While feedback will not be taken into consideration for the first few days, due to how new the changes are, you will be able to make suggestions in #discord-suggestions if you still wish to have them reverted.

What are the LFG channels and can the voice chat can be used for other games?

The channels are an experiment for people to send their invites if they wish to play SCP: Secret Laboratory together.
You can use the "LFG Room Creator" Voice Chat to play SL or other games with friends or users in this discord without getting disturbed by others joining in.

Are the ranks going to be reworked?

Eventually yeah, unsure when as we need to set up a plan for it first.

We have added a #933082787706183710 channel that you can now report any issues you have encountered within the game.

<@&836216498032607252> Hey folks,

Recently we’ve come to the conclusion amongst the discord staff team that we could use a few extra hands. Considering applications for discord moderator have been open for quite a few months with minimal applicants, we’ve opted to open a helper position.

The helper position has limited perms and access (due to them not being full studio staff), but applications are open to any folks over the age of 16. They can be found in #475377522775687179.

On a related note, we’ve opened up a modmail system via 079. We’d prefer you used this over DMing a moderator about issues.

To learn more, please see #discord-support.

Thanks everyone, see you all around.

<@&836216498032607252>

Hey folks, just wanted to let you know about some updates we've done to the server.

First off, we thought that some of the level requirements for channel access / embed perms was a bit high, so we shuffled around the level roles a bit and reduced the amount you need to have access to those things.

Secondly, <@&585532194374680576> and <@&677940547196944385> will have access to the #utility-roles channel, where they can acquire a color role that will appear above their other roles. This is purely for cosmetic purposes.

Lastly, we've implemented a system that should prevent cases of users going un-punished when there are no mods online. All you'll have to do is ping a studio member that's active in chat, they'll handle the rest.

Thanks for reading and have a good day.

Hi all,

Technical support is currently closed to opening new tickets due to some downtime on the Ticket Bot. We hope to have everything resolved and re-opened within the next 24 hours.

Thank you for your understanding.
