im aware that this may be a hot take, but people are constantly left wondering "what is this user whose profile i cant access" and they ask about this on the chat, removing it could be too far but make people use their name in the character name <name> [realdiscordname], just please, i want to be able to identify who you are without having to ask.

#

when i see someone using pluralkit the webhook doesnt have the persons real discord nickname

#

so like add it to the rules

#

maybe

like this?-

thats nice

#

what i think would be a good compromise is enforcing a system tag for pluralkit

We will never disable or remove pluralkit from the server.

#

That is a call for Anna alone to make.

#

And I have yet to see anyone make a compelling argument for her to take such a request seriously.

brazen sable
#

yeah but i dont want to send a command just to check that or react, it should be in the name that i can just read without having to do that

#

isnt this supposed to tell me who i am talking to?

why should a member of a system have to tell you who their host is

brazen sable
# warm rivet it does tho

#9187 📣 What is a plural community?
A plural community, often also called a system, are a group of people who share one body.
Who is the ‘real person’?
This question is a common, but problematic idea, that one identity is more or less valid than another. All of the identities are valid, the body is shared by all of them. It is common for one identity to front more than the others however, this can change.
What is fronting?
Fronting is when one identity is in control of the body, you'll notice that one system/community has multiple bot accounts talking for them, the identity that is fronting can thus differentiate themselves compared to the others.
Some people in plural communities share memories, and even consciousness, with others. Other plural communities do not share memories. It is very individual (excuse the pun) to the plural community.

Psst, Cyn (@ornate kite), you have been pinged by @slim scroll.

open raptorBOT
#

i like pluralkit for its utility

slim scroll
#

just learned that

open raptorBOT
#

the way i see it
pluralkit is meant to be convenient to the person using it, not the person on the receiving end of the message.
and if you have a problem with that then it's kinda on you :P

#

it is an accessibility tool

i suppose in a server this large it's only normal for some people to misuse it and others to be confused
