discord-server-feedback

[mental pecan]

You keep giving us reasons why we won't do that

[acoustic stratus]

countrybutton role is cooll

[floral plume]

Add something like weekly contests, it could be like "Make a drift/race/drag/tuner/casual/off-road configuration of (any car)" and have a channel to post pics. people decide which is the best and the winner gets something idk

[left violet]

That would easily become a hell to moderate.

[bold steppe]

"Would be hell to moderate"

Maybe, we could get more moderators? like for example, maybe ones that are like one side of the earth, and another from this side of earth if that makes sense, so moderation is managable at all times. Also, we need a admin. BeamNG devs aren't on a lot, so 1 or 2 admins would help a lot.

Idk why, but i feel like this is simple, with maybe a few bots, and the poll can be controlled from there.

@spring tulip pretty sure people among themselves could do a poll, and maybe once ever so often a judge from the devs or sum.

@left violet easy fixes to that is, to have like a 1-2 hour timer on it.

[spring tulip]

I think with moderating they meant judging?

[left violet]

This server has enough moderators, and adding bots would also just be a hassle because you know how unreliable bots can be. Having a competition channel would just be sorta, a pain. As I already said. All it would take it a few wrong words and the channel just turns into hell, same as what happens with screenshots. Judging would also be difficult because there would probably be hundreds of people entering and it would take probably longer then a week to judge. Overall, a competition/contest channel I feel wouldn't really work well at all.

[spring tulip]

Hence why we keep certain channels as attachment only

[left violet]

Even then, people can still argue using images, all it takes is posting an image with a message, or pinging in another channel to have drama about the contests.

[bold steppe]

Totally not the memes channel still getting out of hand with offended people and people who still decide arguing there and not in DMs

[spring tulip]

Regardless, less drama we can have the better. We've thrown around ideas similar to these suggestions but nothing is planned or should be expected to happen for the time being

[viral heart]

the automation one seems a bit weird, its like #screenshots but for automation, and some ppl wanna comment on others cars, but dunno

[floral plume]

I've been a moderator before on pretty large servers, and with all due respect, this server has pretty weak moderation

[native turret]

I agree. I see way too many arguments about things that don’t even matter, and they’re in a channel intended for something that isn’t arguing.

[jade terrace]

We do what we can when we can for free we're not compensated for our efforts like many think we are

[narrow cliff]

There are big servers with a lot weaker moderation, even beamng related ones (not saying any names here)
This server does pretty good imo, not a lot of issues and I've seen no moderator powertrips so far what can be a worse issue than weak moderation

[floral plume]

yeah, exactly, moderation is so weak that you don't see anything

[bold steppe]

Honestly, moderation is kinda low, since people amongst themselves actually stop arguments without any moderation

[severe hemlock]

You don't see strong moderation because problems are mostly dealt with very swiftly

[spring tulip]

we're always open to constructive feedback, but as harkin mentioned a lot happens out of public eye, so it's understandable if it seems like nothing is being done sometimes

[native turret]

Moderation is like CGI in films
No one notices the 50,000 times its done and done well
they only notice the 5 times its done bad
That is how it is supposed to be

[native turret]

^

Think of what would happen if there was actually no moderation at all

[ivory river]

anarchy

[viral heart]

a voting system in game feedback?, dunno

[narrow cliff]

what would that be good for? Bug reports do not need voting and the devs decide what suggestions are worth it

[calm coral]

a "frequently suggested" channel, to help stop suggestions getting clogged up with things that arent gonna happen, such as airbags. I guess it can just be formated as a normal FAQ?

[rotund nest]

No one checks the pin comments so this is pointless tbh.

For example #support message

[calm coral]

I feel like alot more people would check a frequently suggested channel rather than pins though

[rotund nest]

People don't on steam.

[upbeat nest]

i cant type in #russian-русский

[zealous sphinx]

Please pick up the role in #roles

[bold steppe]

Why tf, is screenshots at 30 sec cooldown?

[left violet]

All the drama usually happens there, and since it's meant to be sharing screenshots only, it makes sense.

[jade terrace]

Because trolls

[bold steppe]

tuff.

[proven tendon]

I remember when 1 hour arguments over meshslaps used to happen almost everywhere

[boreal valley]

how do you send more than 1 screenshot in a message?

[void heart]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[left violet]

no

[viral heart]

no, i mean it would be cool but a fing disaster

[little locust]

More fun emojis

[jade terrace]

https://tenor.com/view/no-god-please-no-gif-21601753

[viral heart]

meshslaps are-
I better not

[void heart]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[native turret]

-good for somebody who is just getting into JBEAM
-not that bad when actually done properly
-Hated by elitists

[severe hemlock]

-and not on topic

[viral heart]

you dont learn jbeam by meshslapping
i agre
i dont hate all meshslaps

[native turret]

make threads available pls

[viral heart]

no

[zealous sphinx]

We are not planning to add it at the moment since threads option lacks some moderation options

[vapid terrace]

To be honest, I think the moderators have been just assuming results instead of actually testing things out. It wouldn’t hurt that bad to have threads opened for a week, and see how it goes, right? Maybe VCs, too, yeah they’re hard to moderate but I doubt there’s gonna be anyone streaming porn or people getting executed right? All I see are moderators just saying no to every suggestion without even trying.

[left violet]

This server can't even have people behave in normal text channels. So I really doubt VCs or threads are gonna be any better.

[viral heart]

yes

[native turret]

As someone who is moderator in multiple servers. one of which has 200k people i have tested these things, and i can say that we have our reasons to not enable them and they're very good reasons at that, ranging for lack of moderation coverage by bots (such as automod) to people spam creating threads and flooding the server. just to name a few issues with threads

[viral heart]

as shados mentioned if we cant be normal in chat threats would be death so impossible and never will happen, vc would even be worse probazbly

[proven tendon]

Imagine the moment VCs are made there are 50 people in it, some groaning and moaning, others screaming, some shouting racial slurs and arguing, some more doing your mom jokes, and like someone who is trying to have a normal discussion

[viral heart]

^^

[native turret]

my mom died last year, so yea i wont be making any of thoise any time soon

[viral heart]

Ok.

[echo flax]

helo

[ivory river]

#game-feedback exists

[zealous sphinx]

You can suggest things in #game-feedback

[proven tendon]

Sorry about that, but I don't see why you had to respond to a message like what I said with that
May she rest in peace

[lapis mango]

Reduce the cooldown of #game-feedback

[zealous sphinx]

There are reason why #game-feedback has such a "long" cooldown

[little locust]

Such as? You can tell me in #off-topic if you want so you can avoid the cooldown here also it is long, why did you put it in quotes 😂

[viral heart]

bassicaly its for feedback, not anithing else, so its high so ppl dont talk

[little locust]

#off-topic message

[little locust]

Like... to rate devs individually??
Or for devs to rate us or the game 🤔

[native turret]

Uhh nevermind I'll scrap that idea

[little locust]

xd

[thorn totem]

I want BeamNG Radio back.

[proven comet]

Same

[patent pagoda]

same

[jade terrace]

Same.

[viral heart]

What was the reason of removal?
same

[left violet]

My thoughts
A. Kept breaking
B. Not many people used it.

Could be wrong

[sweet cave]

I don’t remember beam radio when was it removed

[hollow wave]

since this is a boosted server, I thought an animated server icon would be cool

[floral plume]

I've been trying to make one for some time now

[jade terrace]

People were able to add non-approved songs which were mainly racist or offensive in other manners.

^^^^^^^^^^ @left violet @patent pagoda @thorn totem

[patent pagoda]

ok

[thorn totem]

brush didn't knew that

[left violet]

That's fair enough then.

[proven comet]

ya

[viral heart]

id revise the current emojis and delete old ones and add new ones, like who tf uses ?

[bleak swallow]

yea i agree. maybe make them animated instead?

[livid solstice]

can i have the contribuitor role? i reached level 20 today

[fierce tide]

So that only Nitro people can use it?

[bold ice]

[viral heart]

One of us!

[livid solstice]

⚠️

[viral heart]

new rule: CHECK PINNED before asking in the chat
please for the love of god

[left violet]

The amount of people who would break that rule would probably get tiring and would end up getting removed because people never following it.

[spring tulip]

It's written in every channel description and I'd say that might get more chance to be looked at than the rules channel

[viral heart]

it clearly doesnt work, but yeah

[spring tulip]

There must be some that do spot it before posting which we'll never know, but for the ones that do post without checking the only thing to really do is remind them. A rule for that would be too harsh

[viral heart]

yeah, people dont know how to read like dunno 🤦‍♂️

[viral heart]

no not needed

[severe hemlock]

#game-feedback is our suggestion channel

[native turret]

Would it be possible to have something pinned in #support that mentions that if your camera is stuck backwards in driver view push 1 on the number pad? I’ve seen it like a gabazaquintillion times and usually nobody’s there that knows

[native turret]

It is what it is. I have learned to accept it is a fact of life

[viral heart]

i dont know it this would be ok, but muting for saying sht its a bit dumb imo
but what i mean is that sit shouldnt be considered one of them, its barely an insult

[spring tulip]

Profanity filters have been discussed, we've been told they're mandatory

[native turret]

Make those who havent added their bot commands role cannot type in #bot-commands
Or
The bot should say that they had to add their bot commands role

[little locust]

I agree, it's so annoying, it's not like you do it on purpose, but let's say sometimes it's just part of the language / sentence and you're not saying big stuff, but just f or s, but I guess, we can't do much about it

[native turret]

Thats it we need more language chat channels

[little locust]

What, I didn't say that, I was referring to English.

[pearl badger]

could we get threat creation ability in the #support room? This would enable those who want to help the ability to create threads, leaving the main channel uncluttered with open requests or 'tickets'. It would also allow people to search through threads to easier find solutions to their problems

[pearl badger]

just noticed the #support room has threads enabled, would be great if everyone could make their own threads with slowmode enforced or sum

[native turret]

Threads are currently not enabled due to the lack of bots being able to work with them and other issues iirc

[distant river]

we should rename this server to "BeamNG.chat"

[potent brook]

no

[acoustic stratus]

#pets channel for cute doggos and cats and animals

[potent brook]

incorrect

[native turret]

Modding tutorials like in MFD?

[viral heart]

thats why mfd is a thing

[fierce tide]

Is the 10s slowmode in gamediscussion a permanent thing or was it forgotten to set down to five again? Just wondering, I'm a supporter of the slowmode.

[zealous sphinx]

The 10s slow mode is intentional

[potent brook]

Is it ever going back to 5s tho

[rapid otter]

Imagine having a conversation with someone IRL but you have to wait 10s between each reply
I think you can imagine how that would end up

[zealous sphinx]

Having a conversation in real life is not the same as chatting in a channel.
You can't flood or spam in talking, however you can in a channel.

[bold ice]

but its still as annoying as it would be irl

[viral heart]

and there arent loads of ppl talking all the time, just for especcial ocassions turn it to 10, if peeps are having a chat, its really annoying, if there is a war going or new teaser... put it on 10s

[spring tulip]

@potent brook Discussed with the others and reverted slow mode to 5 seconds.
We want to keep the chats usable with minimal slow modes so please help us do that by pinging us or reporting any disruptive behavior rather than engaging and having us need to up the slow mode to longer times again.

[proven tendon]

Still someone shouting and talking constantly while your talking to another person is just as annoying as spam

[devout pilot]

Unfortunately I'm seeing alot of scams around here

[native turret]

If you see them, report them via the bot or directly dm a mod! We do our best but can miss stuff sometimes

[devout pilot]

Yes unfortunately my old account got scammed on here and I had to re make one lol gotta do what you gotta do to join the best discord server

[rotund nest]

Never click on unfamiliar links or the "free nitro" links. I have only seen 1 real one which was taken by bots in .5 milliseconds (the user was almost banned as well).
Most of those fake free nitro links are blacklisted but new ones are made every hour. Also if your account was hijacked report it to discord, change all your passwords on everything, run a virus scan and possibly do a deep clean of your pc.

[little locust]

Yeah these bots are doing a great job ngl, hopefully they're running some sort of algorithm, not only blacklisting specific links

[native turret]

So I suppose moderator applications are closed now. I was gonna apply as I think a Spanish chat would be massively useful. Idk if you need to be a contributor or what

[civic pecan]

15minute cool down on all feedback channels, sometimes I have a thought to add and I can’t for 15 minutes??

[native turret]

It's so that people who are really mad can't spam.

I need help.
help
help
pls
anyone?

@native turret is right, I would just edit your message if you have more to say. If you look most of my messages are edited... lol

[spring tulip]

Sorry you're correct, moderator applications are closed for the time being.
Spanish is also not a highly requested chat channel so it's not being considered yet at the moment

[native turret]

Oh. Ok. And no need to apologize. Understood.

[little locust]

🇮🇹 wen

[viral heart]

really? what is the most requested,? id probably say spanish or french? but dunno im spanish so...

[proven tendon]

Why in the world is the 🅱️ emoji banned in #game-discussion-1? thats just plain stupid

[spring tulip]

I believe after we had Chinese and Russian, German and French are most commonly asked

[civic pecan]

still... 15 minutes? 5 maybe??

[native turret]

Feedback channels are for just that, a message posting feedback. Not discussion, if you want to add something edit your feedback message and add it!

[native turret]

Idk if it's a good idea but maybe a channel for 3d modelling? So you can post models even whaen they won't be a mod.

[little locust]

But Chinese weren't banned from Discord?
Like, I'm not trying to be annoying, but just surprised it was one of the most requested.

[civic pecan]

i notice alot of dutch players on beamMP

[jade terrace]

If you have a fake discord nitro link in your DM's please send it to me so I can sort it before they spam the server, thank.

[viral heart]

There are lots of ppl in china, a bunch of those move out and still use Chinese, i think that's why

[vapid terrace]

Had to try it out for myself. What the hell?

[native turret]

i think there is something worse, north korea

[spring tulip]

oh no, might be due to blacklisting an offensive word that can be written with that and the bot took it as one emoji rather than the full word, will ask someone to look into it

[spring tulip]

^

[obsidian ingot]

im going to try that now

[native turret]

can confirm he did

[viral heart]

i dont want to get more mutes 💀

[severe hemlock]

It was blacklisted to prevent spam

[little locust]

For s🅱️inalla?

[viral heart]

to prevent ppl for just putting that emoji in particular?

[sinful raft]

hello

I have 2 ideas for this discord server
1- create a channel for suggestions
2- create more chats in other languages, like Portuguese, Spanish, French and more.

[little locust]

#game-feedback is for game's suggestions and #discord-server-feedback is for server's suggestions, regarding to languages chat, as it has been said before, they aren't requested much.

[sinful raft]

ok, the language thing and why i'm having a hard time with english, having to use the translator to write correctly. but thanks for understanding me.

[viral heart]

so weird idea but it can help, whenever a guy asks in #support #mods-discussion or #modding-general "how to install mods" (must include those words) make the bot show the !mods

[viral heart]

@jade terrace

[jade terrace]

thank you

[native turret]

There’s a bot command for that. It takes like 10 seconds to type ¡mods

[narrow cliff]

But someone needs to remember it and do it, I've never seen it in use

[native turret]

Well that’s our problem, not the fault of the mods. Would it be wrong to use that outside of #bot-commands tho?

Also curious why there’s no Slowmode on #other-games out of curiosity.

[narrow cliff]

Yes, but the bot doing it on its own would always help those people without any effort needed anymore.
No one said this is someones fault, just an improvement idea

[native turret]

Idk if that feature exists. There are language moderation features in place, but no “if you see [this] reply with [this]” aside from ! and / commands. I use MEE6 in my own servers and have never seen that kind of thing.

[fierce tide]

I would love to have a list of the available commands for the beam bot, I know there exists a command for the safe mode and the clean install website, but I never found out which command it is.

[viral heart]

• !help

[native turret]

Check pinned in #bot-commands, they're all there

[fierce tide]

Wow me stupid. I probably only checked the pinned messages in support as I only needed it there, but why did I never check in the bot commands? Wow. Thanks!

[coral oar]

Idea from the SCS software discord, add this so people will try fixing their game before reporting a "broken" game as usually it involves broken mods or files

[native turret]

Sadly almost no one reads the pins in support, as shown by the fixes shown in pinned for common issues yet messages asking for help for those still appear

[rotund nest]

This is a primary example of people not reading pinned comments. #support message

[viral heart]

related to ^^, when threads are able to be moderated and are added, hopefully soon, every time a thread on #support is opened send an auto message with some common fixes?

[native turret]

Hi can we get #counting channel? Just for fun...

[viral heart]

no

[native turret]

why not?

[viral heart]

its not a good idea, would be a mess to control

[left violet]

And the trolls, people who would mess it up and such else. Would probably end up becoming the new arguments channel.

[proven tendon]

imagine at 999 someone messes it up

[hard crest]

the highest number we'd get to is probably 10 or 30

[native turret]

Idk man I've seen messy servers get to millions

yeah... abt that...

[native turret]

is the slowmode in like every channel really necessary

[viral heart]

by smelting items

[left violet]

Unless you want drama 24-7 in all the channels, yes, it is necessary.

[little locust]

why that emoji 😂

[viral heart]

mute pirated vesion players which cant prove they have it from steam/humble bundle, they will get unmuted if they prove they bought the game (if muting is not an option a pirate role?)

[spring tulip]

When reported or spotted by a moderator it's what we currently do after it was suggested previously by other users

[native turret]

Slowmode isn't necessary if the moderation makes sense

[proven tendon]

why mute the pirates or give them a role, that does nothing and makes the situation worser

you'll make them think the community is toxic (which it honestly is) causing them to not buy it at all

[spring tulip]

My personal preference if time is available is to typically try and convince them to buy the game by listing the upsides to ownership, which has worked once so far. Currently I've put that down as a suggestion for the future

[little locust]

"worser" 😳
edit2: joke, no grammar nazi
edit3: Also why community is toxic, I'm mostly in #710083104433242152 channels and #off-topic am I missing something in other channels?

[viral heart]

modding comunity and meshslaps
toxic asf
thats why 30s slowmode on #screenshots

[little locust]

Oh, never had an issue with moderators thankfully, mesh slaps are just stupid, why do you (not you specifically) have to care much

[mental pecan]

🤔

[proven tendon]

Yeah much better imo instead of just muting, banning or just giving them a role that makes them feel horrible

[acoustic stratus]

#music channel need

[spring tulip]

the role idea will not be implemented, it just singles people out needlessly

[novel hatch]

Ayo I think I spotted a dude claiming their own art on #beamng-fanart yet it's someone else's art-

[ivory river]

ok

[vapid terrace]

I know personal comments aren’t easy to pass by here but man must you be pretty blind or stupid to post this here

[vast spire]

Thats why i made my comment above. So much chaos here

[rocky lantern]

you guys should make a teaser discussion channel, specifically for people that want to talk about teasers

[hard crest]

Allow all emotes in #screenshots and #off-topic
[Remove the server only emotes for the channels]

[little locust]

What, you can type emojis in these 2 channels? Or you mean something else by "emotes"?

[hard crest]

I mean allow all emotes.
You can only use server emotes in those channels.
Buy you can use all emotes in #game-discussion-1

[thorny eagle]

Please for the love of god settle the auto mod bot down. It shouldn’t be so sensitive to swearing it’s unbelievably annoying

[native turret]

Just don't swear? If its catching something it shouldn't let us know though!

[thorny eagle]

i should be able to mildly cuss in a server full of 98% adults. Unironically a roblox discord server had a less strict swear bot than this

[rotund nest]

Don't like the rules then leave lol

[native turret]

^

This is an official server for a game that has a minor-age following so

[rotund nest]

Just be happy we don't have halos rule set of auto ban for swearing.

[thorny eagle]

There is very little actual minors playing beamng. Sure you might have someone that is 15 or 16 but that’s not of an age demographic where saying a minor cuss should be a mutable offence. This game does not have a following of 6 year olds. If you have any proof the game demographic is primarily of those 10 and under do let me know.

Also the “profanity” rule is under the “treating others with respect” which they have literally no correlation to eachother because swearing isn’t inherently targeted at anyone. The other beamng server also runs a less strict ruleset and it’s worked out completely fine. This server is arguably suffering because it’s hard to have conversations with people

[native turret]

The other beamng server isn't official. The fact that we have to deal with underage users weekly is quite the proof at the age. We can't show that 6 year Olds play because they are not here... legally they cant. Do you get annoyed in middle school when teachers get mad for students cursing too? It's the same thing, just be decent and don't curse. It's not hard

[left violet]

How is it difficult to have a conversation with someone because you can't swear, I don't understand that. You can have completely normal conversations without swearing and they're completely fine.

[severe hemlock]

Most of the users here are under the age of 18, this server welcomes people of all ages permitted on discord. There are many other servers out there if you would like to swear.

[rotund nest]

If your having trouble with having a convo without swearing your gona need to work on your talking skills.

[thorny eagle]

since you lack the ability to think critically

I will present you with a visual aid to help you understand

[native turret]

Ever hear of r/selfawarewolves?

[thorny eagle]

I’m not interested in your weird furry group

Also slow mode is absolutely useless on this server there isn’t enough traffic to warrant using slowmode all it does is make conversations tedious for no reason

[native turret]

Ok I'm sorry I'm actually laughing considering you just proved my point even more thanks

Look at it, seriously

[thorny eagle]

sorry no unsolicited advertisements allowed

[severe hemlock]

This seems to be an issue with behavior/attitude, not an issue with the server automoderation. I suggest you comply with our rules here as they are in place for a reason

[west steppe]

I live in the northwest of England and lived in victoria and nsw Australia, swearing is basically part of the local dialect. Sometimes you just swear because from where you are it is just the norm

[native turret]

Yee, but if someone asked ya to stop I don't think you would get mad lol

[thorny eagle]

This

[west steppe]

Yeah but like when its part of your way of speaking naturally its not like you're doing it purposefully or forceing it into sentences

[native turret]

My family literally never curses. It’s called “cursing” for a reason. The main reason I don’t do more on Discord is because of the language. I don’t like swearing. I despise it. And when I find that it comes out naturally it makes me mad. I might be an extreme example, but you have to consider other people as well.

Also you clearly have no clue how many 12 year olds there are in this game whose only goal is to destroy a car as much as possible.

[vapid terrace]

@thorny eagle are you 12, and think swearing proves a point? No, it doesn’t. You make yourself look ridiculous. In fact I have never seen anyone piss their pants so much over not being able to swear in a discord server. No one thinks that your point is proven or your joke is funny through swearing.

[proven tendon]

@thorny eagle dude you must be so angry because you can't swear, it's called having manners my man.

like seriously what's the point of swearing? it has no benefit and it just makes you look like a horrible and dirty tongued person.

[little locust]

Add :kek: emoji 🙂

[buoyant gull]

add :dazer: 😀

[little locust]

wat's that

[buoyant gull]

this

[bold ice]

[inner hazel]

im 13"!!

[civic pecan]

i know 5 minors who play beam ng out of a total of 7 people i know who play beam

[little locust]

I saw this message only now, I'm also surprised by the strict swearing filter in this server, almost like it's for sure that there are very little kids here but unfortunately we don't have any demographic statistic of the average gamer age of BeamNG, so we can base ourselves only on what moderators say, so I guess we've got to deal with it :\

But if one day there is a proposal for less strict swearing filter, I'm for it.

[bleak roost]

@little locust this.

[little locust]

Not sure what you mean by this reply, who's saying it's difficult to have a conversation without swearing? What I'm saying is that it's simply stupid from my view censoring very basic swear words which often aren't even offensive.

[civic pecan]

if they're so 'basic' and 'non offensive' then what's the point of using them... just because its a swear? lol

[proven tendon]

ah yes saying a slang but in a more "gangster" or shall i say worser way to say intercourse is okay and hard to not say

do you guys not know how to keep clear from saying swears? because if you don't then you really need discipline and manners

[native turret]

There is no harm using or not using them really, Jesus that slowmode

[native turret]

Add these 2 emojis:

[little locust]

We see the thing in a different way and also you keep missing my point, so whatever.

[proven tendon]

what point?

[civic pecan]

We just don’t get why you have to swear, does that really not make sense??

[little locust]

Who said I do have to swear? Again, what I'm saying, that I personally think that it's pointless to censor every single swear words, because often they aren't even offensive, but if you read my original message I say, that if we really have children here I'll deal with it no problem, gosh.

[proven tendon]

would you shout a swear word in a public place? even if there is no children?

[little locust]

What? What's that supposed to mean? Why do you have to shout it? So you say swear words only shouting? Well in that case agree, you shouldn't really be swearing, as for me, I don't need to shout, I can just joke about it.
Anyways let's end this, I see it's going into a drama and we are not understanding each other, the swear filter will remain anyways for your happiness.

@little locust

[little locust]

Different opinions, you can also choose to ignore my messages if I make you mad

[proven tendon]

no you need to shout so people can hear you like in chats
"Well in that case agree, you shouldn't really be swearing" exactly

there is 0 need to swear in most situations, even arguments

[little locust]

Can everyone stop arguing with me about that, you keep missing my point. I know you can have a chat without swear words but what I also believe that some aren't even offensive to be censored, but ofc if we have kids that can be traumatized by everything then go ahead keep the complete swear filter.

[civic pecan]

would you be shocked if you heard a 4 year old cursing?

[native turret]

Honestly, I see the logic (even if it is scarce) for all points of view where. This is becoming an argument, and it doesn’t need to be. The filter is in place, what you do has consequences, and that’s the end.

[vapid terrace]

‘Can everyone stop arguing with me about that’ sounds a whole lot like ‘please guys I don’t have a good point to show please stop being logical’. Seriously though, differentiating between swearing in cases of joking and stuff vs actual directed verbal attacks are hard. If you would like to take up a dedicated role as someone who helps the mods sort through every message containing a swear and allowing those which aren’t directed while denying messages with directed swearing I think you’d be greatly appreciated. Your point doesn’t make sense.

[lucid thicket]

Okay let's drop this

Is it wrong to use stuff like **/**mods in channels other than #bot-commands?

Why dos there need to be a role ifor#bot-commands? To prefent spam? It seems that it causes more confusion than anything

[limpid sky]

add strem channels, I can't screenshare to my friends in this server :( Wich sucks

[left violet]

If you're on about VCs, that's highly unlikely. They're impossible to moderate and you can't always have a staff member looking all the time. It can easily turn into hell within a matter of minutes.

[narrow cliff]

even just screensharing can cause huge issues if people share the right stuff (porn,...)

[proven tendon]

lets also not forget that this is beamcord and you'll probably hear a ton of curses and arguments once you join one aswell as a kid shouting on his bread stick mic

[limpid sky]

I wish there only nice people :(

with the radio alone people were adding racist songs, so we unfortunately had to remove it.

[hard crest]

#game-discussion-1 #screenshots #mods-discussion I guess.

[rocky lantern]

allow mild profanity 😑

[left violet]

or just cope and follow the rules 😑

[little locust]

As some pointed out, this server is for all ages, that means that there are also children here, since there isn't currently a way to distinguish mild profanity from intense profanity, it's just good to be preventive and avoid questionable situations, I get you, it may be a bit annoying, but that's what we get for being in a world full of crazies 😛

[native turret]

I mean, I’d there a way to verify age via Discord? I mean, you could in theory have a channel for NFSW (or however you spell it), but to be honest, if that’s what you want go to a different server.

unfortunately there is no way to verify age on discord with hard proof, just "please be honest with the age you type here"

There is no correct way to verify age, almost every way is intrusive and not needed when this is an all ages game, so the discord is too

i hear people say all ages here yet discord tos requires you to be 13 at minimum, so should it still be all ages?

Well duh, all ages that are allowed to be here

We know you need to be 13, all ages is just a term

[native turret]

Also, has the rank system been sped up? I'm seing brand new players I've never seen with ranks in the double digits

But then I could just say "check pinned" rather than having to dig for it

[native turret]

wait so a 4 year old can play this?

[little locust]

We're talking about Discord server, I don't think there's a minimum age to play BeamNG itself and if there is it's either determined by BeamNG itself (don't think so) or the store in which its hosted: Steam.

Yeah bc if it was for a good reason i should ping a mod and tell them to mute you again but if you got unmuted and that not by accident then everythin ok .

[spring tulip]

'Sup everyone? In order to avoid potential confrontations and misuse of showcase channels such as #714429950765301791 , we're considering making it an attachment only channel.

Remember this post doesn't mean anything may change, just taking opinions. Vote below and feel free to give opinions on why/ why not.

[vapid terrace]

It can be used as a feedback channel for modders, confrontations happen everywhere anyways. Eliminating text messages would probably make it so people use inappropriate channels to talk instead.

[narrow cliff]

the problem is that people want to comment on the posted mods, may it be tips for improvements or feature wishes. Imo just showcasing stuff without anyone being able to interact takes the point away of showing it in the first case

[void heart]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[left violet]

As annoying as this could be, maybe making a modder role would be your best bet, that way, those who are modders can post there only and if people have questions they'd have to ask in another channel? Just throwing my two cents in.

[native turret]

That's honestly a great idea. But there'd need to be some sort of verification, like proving that you do indeed make mods.

I mean, it could be like an application you have to fill out, with a link to your repo or forums page

[left violet]

Yeah, which would be the annoying part.

[native turret]

Another idea would be to make it private, modders only. Because modders will generaly give more constructive criticism, except for a few select individuals. And modders would know better if something needs to be improved.

[hard crest]

Why make it for modders only?
Less people will be able to see the development of mods.
Imo the only "criticism" they'd give eachother would be biased.

[minor rock]

Exactly. Plus, people that need feedback the most won't be able to post. Another server changed WIP posting to only be "established modders" and all of the upcoming guys had nowhere to post. A lot of them just outright quit because of this. The same problem of people arguing, misusing the channel etc still persisted. Just punish the people misusing channels.

[left violet]

That doesn't work. I wouldn't say make a private channel, I'd just go with the idea I suggested. Any of these ideas will result in drama and arguments so they're all not great.

[native turret]

Correct. I just think that there should be better moderation on who gets the role. People who get it should at least have the intention of getting into modding

[dull blaze]

Spanish channel anyone?

[native turret]

Take a peek at this conversation: #discord-server-feedback message

[spring tulip]

Thanks for the feedback! For now we'll leave the channel as is. As always to help keep things calm tag a moderator if anything is up, and use #mods-discussion for any discussions not related to feedback of mods posted in showcase

[loud dust]

make it so you can only send pictures in the screnshots channel so i dont get my pictures bumped by people arguing

[bold ice]

agre

[left violet]

Arguments are gonna appear either way, people can just attach and image while they argue, so I'm not too sure how that'll work.

[loud dust]

true ig but maybe itll reduce the chances of an argument starting

[severe hemlock]

The best solution I see is to report the users arguing

So please, feel free to report or ping one of us if there is an issue occuring

[little locust]

I don't look often mods channels, but what does everyone mean by "arguing"? Like simply critiquing a mod or attacking it?

[sudden mortar]

probably arguing if the mod is third party or not :kekw

[little locust]

That causes so many issues? Oh dear 😂

[native turret]

It is laughable but it's near constant lmto

[viral heart]

Yah, modders hate them as it makes their mods that theyve worked hard on are passed by low effort mods that are popular just because they are irl cars. That's one of the many reasons

[little locust]

I guess I'm different but I enjoy a car if it's well made, in the sense that has good skin, interior, handling and model, I don't just drive a car because it's a real life brand, so it's kinda disappointing to see people just "liking" a car just because it's a real life brand, at the same tho, it's astonishing to see modders being mad over a person (probably kid) using more a mod than theirs, don't they just understand that these players don't care about effort but about image? They should focus on an audience that appreciates mods for their originality or effort put into.

[viral heart]

i hate that my mods are shadowed by shitty mods that have 0 quality, and those same pages also steal mine and reupload them. thing i dont want to happen, but yeah unless its modland or wom i dont care, 2fast mods are passable as they are not reuploaded

[little locust]

Ok the way you explained it now makes more sense, yeah stealing a mod and credit it's bad and an understandable thing to be mad on and it's definitely a bad feeling seeing your effort not being appreciated.
So what's the issue with arguments? It seems a reasonable reason to argue on?

[viral heart]

users that use those bad mods argue that the look cool and that we shouldnt conplain
on the other hand we tell them what i said

[little locust]

Okay, I guess you have the same right to express your view as them to critique mods.
On the other hand if you have an audience not compatible with your "product" there isn't much you can do other than finding the right people.

[loud dust]

i understand if people want to argue about whatver but go do it in another channel or dms

[narrow cliff]

maybe rename #support into #community support or something like that

[viral heart]

^^

[native turret]

This tbh

[steep burrow]

it doesnt matter to me wether its a real name or not what matters to me how realistic it is in terms of real life driving and handling. If it feels like what i have driven and what i drive then that is what matters. i know the etk-k 1994 is supposed to be a z3 so if it drives like a z3 then its my favourite mod

Well one of my favourite mods i should say and i will remember it for a long time just for that reason.

but if its a joke physics and sounds it doesnt matter if its a real name or what it is still going into the recycle bin not unless i can edit it and "save" and i always try to do that not unless it is an obvious lose lose situation but most mods are unfortunately like that.

I can convert a ferrari into beamng which looks like a ferrari but it will have garbage physics and sounds then it is the same as having no ferrari mod in beamng at all.

3ds and visuals is only 1/3 so if you perfect that and dont do the other 2/3 then you will always have a 33% quality lol

And people notice immediately if its just a quick conversion nobody is that dumb not to see it for the quick cash grab or scam that it might be.

Simulation or nothing at all is what this game is about to me i don't know about others.

(please don't do that)

[native turret]

Here’s a suggestion:
I know I’ve already suggested something to a similar effect, but this time I have another suggestion. Would it be possible to add a new channel called like #photography? And then we could reserve the #screenshots channel to the 12 year olds who think it’s cool to split their car in half or break the speedometer. Because in my honest opinion, I think that the overall quality of the #screenshots channel is affected by stuff like that, but also that way people who post that kind of stuff won’t get their messages buried, and maybe they can get a laugh from their target audience. Maybe there could be a simple distinguishment, like for example whether the UI showing or not. I know I’ve suggested this before, I just don’t think I’ve ever explained my whole reasoning behind it

Yes I keep adding more to this message.
So while most of us use the channel for something like this (#screenshots message), the quality of the channel is demeaned by stuff like this (#screenshots message)

[narrow cliff]

photography would be used for photographies of real cars, not screenshots, imo the main issue with that idea is to tell someone he can't post because his screenshots look trash without insulting him
maybe a channel called crash pics would be a better solution, but the screenshot channel doesn't really suffer that much from spam for me, it is worse in game feedback or game discussion

Like this: #game-discussion-1 message

[native turret]

Yeah, that’s a better idea, still along the same lines. The only thing is I can already imagine the stupid snobbery that would ensue from certain people…. But if they don’t like it they can stay out of the channel

[spring tulip]

This would be difficult to control who uses that channel without some sort of time consuming process of screening who can be allowed to post on that channel, something we pretty much aren't willing or able to do at the moment

[native turret]

Understood. But if you put it right next to screenshots people would understand. But I like @narrow cliff’s idea more. (Also sorry about the ping)

[steep burrow]

why is there no time zones displayed on user message because we are from all over the world not everyone is on the same timezone?

[native turret]

1. That doesn't have to do with the server, that's a client thing
2. Why does it matter that much? Afaik it's all adapted to your timezone

[vernal mango]

Discord should make it so if I’m on idle On mobile the mobile icon is Yello and etc. and so I can see that I’m on mobile that would be cool

This is BeamNG discord team not the discord themselves 👀

[vernal mango]

Ik i thought somebody would agree with me

[native turret]

Good question. In my house we do not curse. I hear enough cursing at work. That’s why I try to limit my online intake of cursing. Why is it called cursing?

[viral heart]

I understand fck but shid?????

Because kids are present and probably under 13

I had something similar happen in my server in a channel that was originally intended to show progress on my mods, so I caled it #show-your-mods

[narrow cliff]

The channel description say "showcase mods here" so I'm not sure if it is really intended only for your own mods

[viral heart]

yeah but the pinned messages says showcase your mods here

Your sentence is not understandable

[native turret]

What sentence?

Would it be a bad idea to change the name of #modding-general to something like #mod-creation? For some reason everyone seems to think that it's for help with mods in general.

[viral heart]

^^

[native turret]

hello , i find it a bit weird that you can quite literally, use external stickers here even though none of them show up except for recents, the beam stickers, and vanilla discord stickers. im not sure if anything can be done about this but i just want to point this out.

There was a recent change on external stickers/emojis in the server. The fact it's only showing in your recents might be a glitch on your end though?

All japanese apart from a few

[lucid thicket]

What

There was a vanilla radio system in the game?!

[eternal cypress]

No there was a radio voice channel in this discord, that’s what They are talking about. idk what happened to it. Ohh makes sense but in that channel you couldn’t speak

[lucid thicket]

Ohhhh

People say it got yeeted because people broke rules on that channel

[rotund nest]

There use to be a internet radio option in beam

[frank shuttle]

Why was the internet radio option IN BEAM removed?

[viral heart]

no

[livid sparrow]

unfortunately true

[left violet]

Watch literally everyone disagree with me.

I feel the slowmo on #screenshots should be longer, slow down arguments, give moderators more time to stop it, and since the channel is basically meant to just be screenshots and no discussion, it would be best.

[frigid sky]

could make the channel so you have to attach an image to speak at all

[frank adder]

Increase the slowmode on #screenshots to 15 minutes. (That way the channel will be cleaner and more quieter)

[rotund nest]

Then people complain about them not able to upload screenshots.

[frank adder]

Damn, I see. (Maybe 1 minute?)

[little locust]

I don't see anything, did they delete everything?

[little locust]

Delete thread lel

[native turret]

no ☹️

[viral heart]

yes

[left violet]

excellent suggestion for the discord

[frank shuttle]

I agree

[loud dust]

delete the screenshots channel

[viral heart]

Nah
Rename to drama

[frank adder]

Nice, my initial plan come true. Thanks mods 👍

[left violet]

Moderators I just wanna say yall are awesome for increasing the slowmo, lol. Prevents pathetic dramas unless people want to wait 15 minutes to argue, and by that point it'll be over with.

[storm silo]

"screenshot discussion" channel?

[wise turtle]

why are my chats getting deleted

[zealous sphinx]

#screenshots is an "only attachment" channel from now

[viral heart]

a @ everyone announcment would be good for the changes made

[narrow cliff]

I don't believe pinging is necessary, but some information would be nice

[jade terrace]

it was pinned, unfortunately too many people for not check them for channel related info

for now it is a test run to see how the community reacts and see if it curbs drama in & around that channel, we'll talk it over and decide to change it back or keep it as is when the test period is over.

[left violet]

Keep the slowmo at 1 minute and keep the screenshots channel to attachments only imho. It works better.

[surreal kestrel]

1st: why doesn't discord support .midi files?
2nd: is it even a right place to ask?

oh, ok

[frank adder]

I'm thinking for another restriction for #714429950765301791, because slowmode isn't effective. Can you add that each posts needs an attachment for that channel. If people likes the mod they can do it via reactions. Also, if they want to give suggestion to the modder they can do that on #mods-discussion. This way the useless stuff won't clog the channel. That's all the suggestion I can put

Ok ignore about the warning and three day mute thingy. But still attachment must be enforced in #714429950765301791 to reduce useless drama on showcasing your mods channel

[left violet]

I agree to be honest. It would work better, and you've seen how it's worked on screenshots, less drama has happened, just it's moved towards mod showcase instead.

[bold ice]

I’ll, and likely others will stop showcasing mods here if that happens, as feedback is usually very important when modding. I’m sorry but, I understand #mods-discussion exists but that’s just not sufficient for quick feedback.
It made sense in #screenshots but doing the same in #714429950765301791 is absurd, and just will do more bad than good.

[left violet]

Actually, when you put it like that, I see your point now.

No need to delete your messages lol, its for suggestions, and what's done is done.

[frank adder]

Ok, now I understand your point. I better delete that messages (Forget about to deleting my own messages; i'll let the moderators to decide if it's good thing or a bad thing)

[mental pecan]

I personally agree. A short discussion about the showcased mod is fine and does not have to go the #mods-discussion immediately. Longer and in depth discussions should.

The downside of this vague line is where we have to draw it. And it allows for "can I haz" and other drama sources.

As a general comment, posting something there means that users will see it and that they will ask for release/progress/free cookies. That's a given.

As a moderator, this channel is giving us a lot of trouble due to copyright, meshslaps, drama and pointless arguments.

[gray robin]

To help make the "vague line" clearer.

Maybe a 3 or 4 message cap on anyone giving feedback per mod. By the 4th message the person giving feedback should be telling the mod creator they have more to discuss in response to their reply and then the mod creator or thank you for the reply. Therefore the mod creator can end the conversation, direct them to mod discussion or their dms.
In summary the message order would go:

Feedback from person
Mod creator's response
Thank yous or a reply.
Mod creator directing them somewhere else to chat further.

[bold ice]

you’re completely missing my point, melanin
my point is if we stop discussion whatsoever, even limit it, in #714429950765301791 we’re going to lose most of the users in that channel, as limiting feedback will completely put off modders

[tidal heron]

eh, personally i would like to post there more often if it was attatchment only or similar because it's really demotivating to post something and have it quickly buried by 'does anyknow know if a f-150 mod? please dm me' and other stuff like that

[frank shuttle]

Solution to that would to be moderate unrelated garbage in the showcase channel, and make people bring it over to the discussion channel

[gray robin]

Oh okay i get you now.

Also, @frank shuttle that would be too difficult otherwise they would have done that already.

[tidal heron]

its not just unrelated garbage too its any text, taking the screenshots channel for example it looks really nice and clean and everybody's photos can be seen.
replies like 'that looks really good' are nice to see but a simple emoji reaction works just as well, like liking something on the forums. and if someone wants to ask a question or discuss it, thats where #mods-discussion comes in to play

[spring tulip]

For the time being I have to agree with this.
It can be discouraging to give feedback if having to change channel for some, the ratio of constructive feedback and the importance of it outweighs the need to make it an attachment only channel for now.
The best way to handle it if things go south would be a personal DM to the user if your mod in question is being mishandled, or reporting it to us. We have mod makers in our team so we're definitely well aware of the possibility of theft, misuse, etc that may happen

[viral heart]

Yeah
Attachments in mods showcase would be pain

Hello!

[viral heart]

Hello, for chatting use other channels, this is used for feedback

[tardy fog]

Hi, we want a French room please, so that people are not annoyed by our beautiful language

[hollow bramble]

We need a moderator who is fluent in French for that

[tardy fog]

Are there any applications for that?
I don't mean software ofc
I'm sure someone in the server is fluent in french, as well as in english of course

[native turret]

Moderator applications are not open currently, moderating other languages is difficult due to requiring at least one person to be fluent and around often enough to check and moderate it so.

[tardy fog]

Yeah I guess is it, thanks anyways

[neon shell]

It's ok and you're welcome

[bleak swallow]

it's 2022 so cope 😎

[little locust]

Lmao

Unless they're offensive, dramas are entertaining

[peak ivy]

a bit late but i also think #714429950765301791 needs at least a little bit of moderation. discussion on what people post is fine, but sometimes conversations/arguments go on for hours, people post questions there, people post stupid completely unrelated stuff... it's a wild west

[zealous sphinx]

Please feel free to use our report system or even ping a moderator if anything inappropriate happens

[oblique ruin]

thats not the point i think. its more like that he or rather i or we think that it shoud be checked by a mod on a regular base because some conversations dont belong in that channel. it has nothing to do with being inappropriate

[spring tulip]

You're totally right, however because this is a voluntary role a lot of us moderating are either working or simultaneously doing other things at the same time too therefore we can't exclusively have eyes on every channel here at all times.
That's where reporting, DMing a mod or in severe cases pinging the moderation role come in handy, so we do need our community to help us out here

[oblique ruin]

Yes ik i just felt that it had to be clearifyed

[zealous sphinx]

As had been discussed before, Feedback is needed in #714429950765301791 channel, however no long discussions.
But sometimes it's hard to decide what messages are Welcomed and what are not

As Blijo and other moderators have said before a short discussion about the showcased mod is fine and does not have to go to the #mods-discussion immediately. Longer and more in-depth discussions should be as the channel is for showcasing mods.

The downside of this vague line is where we have to draw it. How many comments/messages should we allow for a posted picture of a mod? 3? 4?
That's why it's hard to decide sometimes.

[oblique ruin]

yes it is indeed

[upper verge]

add "spam" channel

[crisp atlas]

why

[viral heart]

you wouldnt wanna go there
💀

[mental pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/how-about-no-sloth-gif-11922211

noooo

[little locust]

I get his point, it's to redirect people to the right channel when they spam, so they can keep spamming and we can enjoy a clean channel (the one you're in) and everyone goes home happy.

[left violet]

You realise how awful a spam channel would be right.

[viral heart]

yeah

[ivory river]

especially when the entire server combined has a braincell count of 2

[little locust]

Yeah I do. I thought it was apparent that it was a joke.

[rotund nest]

I thought it was 0.5

[boreal briar]

bruh when contest results

[severe hemlock]

We redirect people who want to spam to outside of the server. Works just fine

[upper verge]

Don't ban me mods but is a nsfw channel a bad idea?

[rotund nest]

Yes.

[bronze spruce]

why would this server have that anyway

[viral heart]

It would result into hell

[midnight bough]

this server have nsfw what

how do u even get nsfw gifs on discord

[little locust]

We already have NSFW.

||When drama ensues.||

[bold ice]

any chance contributors could gain the ability to use external emojis in every channel? I mean those of us who can literally pay for nitro, so why are we being limited back to non-nitro levels of permissions in certain channels?

[frank shuttle]

Just copy images from the server you want

[livid sparrow]

would be easier to just send pictures

[surreal bone]

A suggestion to add something like punishment reset

For example
If you got mute and you didnt got any mute in 3 months, it will reset

Nevermind

[spring tulip]

Don't worry, we take frequency of mutes and warnings into account alongside other things before muting or taking further action

[onyx wasp]

is there anyway to contact a moderator without violating the rules?, because boooi do i need to get someone out of this discord server

[zealous sphinx]

You can DM me or another moderator 🙂

[onyx wasp]

k

[mental pecan]

We look at all of them before doing something.

[spring tulip]

We do look at all the mutes but since there could be false positives and such we just consider our own given mutes

[narrow cliff]

You could add no swearing to the rules instead of just handing out mutes

[severe hemlock]

It is already in the rules under rule #1

[left violet]

If it is one of the rules it gets confusing since some channels it allows you and in others it doesn't. Either have all the channels the same or remove the rule/limit it, if that makes any sense.

[narrow cliff]

rule 1 reads just as an overall be nice, no one expects getting mutes for light words after reading that.
The list of sanctions makes it even more confusing with telling that the first mute is 30 min, the 3 min mute is found nowhere in the list
Does the multiple mutes lead to a ban apply to the 3 min mutes as well? Are the swearing mute durations increasing as well? So many open questions

[mental pecan]

see the 3minute automated mute as a slap on the wrist. Please don't use profane language in BeamNG chats. There is no reason to use it. We are a bit more laid back with that in other channels but excessive swearing will result in a mute.

Offences are logged and we look at them if we mute someone manually.

[narrow cliff]

I don't question the reasoning for those mutes at all right now. The only thing I'm asking for is to cover it in the rules

[viral heart]

still dont understand why sh*t is mutable, its a really common expression and noone takes it as an insult

[severe hemlock]

Because it is a swear word

[spring tulip]

I've brought up the swearing topic before but BeamNG as a company wants to keep it as is, likely due to user diversity and so chats just look nicer with less profanity.

In the rules it is also stated to avoid profanity in rule 1, the bot is a gentle reminder of that and honestly mostly is the bot's job unless things start to look personal and used as insults

[little locust]

Guys it's useless, swear filter will be there forever, for any kind of word, we need to act like saints. 😂

[left violet]

I'm not complaining about it, just confused why some channels have the automute for swearing whereas others don't.

[snow condor]

Needs to be made clearer for sure. I read the rules but didn't get the vibe that I'd be muted for using a slightly colourful s*** to describe something horrendous lol

[severe hemlock]

Basically use the same language that you would use in a professional setting or at school and you'll be fine

[rugged field]

You don’t want to know what people say at school

[severe hemlock]

To the teacher*

[rotund nest]

Principle.

[glad karma]

my class doesn’t care at all lol, they just swear without problems

[rugged field]

That’s what I mean

[little locust]

I mean I've been called crazy in the past for saying that some light swear words are basically part of modern English, I guess I'll continue to be crazy.

Edit: I believe #BEAMNG channels are channels regarding the game, where you should discuss civilly about the game, while #OFF-TOPIC is pretty much where you can do whatever you want because it's not game related. Hence the reason of swear filter being disabled there. (my opinion)

[narrow cliff]

Probably the same channels as the ones that give you xp

[snow condor]

Considering my teacher openly swears 🤣 great example

But fair

[void heart]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[native turret]

Considering drama and arguments manage to still happen just a bit less frequently...

[left violet]

People will find any way to stir up drama, so I don't see screenshots changing any time sooner, unless it's stricter rules. Which I find fair enough.

[upper verge]

Problems in the server:
-members asking for help in #game-feedback
-toxic members

[spring tulip]

-people unfortunately don't read channel descriptions, best to do is guide them to the right place, it happens often but remember it's likely that user's first time asking.

-as always please report unwelcome actions and we'll do our best to handle it

[mental pecan]

And setting the right example by not being toxic always helps the best 👍

[upper verge]

🆗

[peak ivy]

@zealous sphinx have you considered making #714429950765301791 slowmode longer? allows for small comments on mods posted but cuts down on off topic discussion

[zealous sphinx]

Thank you for your idea, but we always consider and discuss such things together as a team.
And as always, please feel free to use our report system or even ping a moderator if you aware of any unrelated or inappropriate happens

[peak ivy]

pinged you directly because you're the only one i remember seeing posting there. but yeah as usual just another long string of off topic posting

[bold ice]

for the love of god no

[snow condor]

Slowmode is long enough in most channels lol

[viral heart]

30 is enough

[bold ice]

there needs to be a rule ‘don’t be a nuisance’ in my honest opinion

[native turret]

that would be rule 1 no?

[rotund nest]

"1. Treat other members of the community with respect.
⠀
Keep discussions civil and constructive. Avoid personal attacks, profanity, religious or political remarks."

[bold ice]

I think it needs to be more direct about it

[snow condor]

Having some common sense is always a great rule for throwing at downright stupid remarks

[native turret]

Used to do that in my own server. Had a rule that legit said “don’t be childish. If you don’t act old enough to be here without violating discord tos you don’t belong here”. Kept the place pretty civil.

[native turret]

Even though rule 1 was “be nice and respectful”

[spring tulip]

most likely people that are a nuisance haven't sat down to read the rules, that rule is pretty general and should be enough to deter someone that did actually sit and read the rules

it covers us as moderators, and you as the community, enough to also act on someone being a nuisance so it does work

[bold ice]

there are certain people it doesn’t seem to be applying to tho

[true fern]

That’s crazy

[native turret]

Still the same issue in #modding-general that everyone wants help with mods rather than mod making

[native turret]

Another suggestion is to disable pings in the image only channels

That sounds brilliant and terrible at the same time, idk

[jade terrace]

We cannot prevent a message ping & if we allowed only messages that ping someone, well, it'll become ping pong at that point.

[upper verge]

We need spam channel.

Instructions unclear, installed TSAR_Bomba.exe in my laptop. It says "Your PC will blow up in 5"

[severe hemlock]

I believe we already explained why that is not going to happen here

[true fern]

Spam channels are goofy idk why anyone needs them

[zealous sphinx]

In some servers, there is a spam channel for gaining XPs easily, so that's on of the reasons I think.

[narrow cliff]

I would prefer a shitposting channel over a spam channel

[upper verge]

I don't know I just clicked it and its registered.

[native turret]

Longer slowmode here, maybe 15 minutes?
IMO this should be longer than #game-feedback

[little locust]

Why, like, why, just why.
5 min is fine, it really doesn't allow for a conversation, 15 min is way too much 5 mins there would be better.

[native turret]

:ChillThink:

[lucid thicket]

No

Just no

Please leave

[left violet]

Perhaps renaming #714429950765301791 to " Showcase your mods " could help people realise it's to showcase their mods, not any random mod they've downloaded.

[native turret]

yeah i AGREE

[livid sparrow]

i would be banned permanently i think

[narrow cliff]

People would be like: "This server language is english"

[livid sparrow]

apparently only in some channels though

[crisp atlas]

Devs, can you make a channel for poll where we vote on things that you devs can't decide! For example, we publish in next update sport car? or publish 4x4 truck? 👍 and 👎 or we remaster map? or publish new map?

looks something like this

[narrow cliff]

I don't believe they want help on that

[jade terrace]

We have plenty of idea's.

[crisp atlas]

Let people make threads in channels not meant to be chatting in, like that people can discuss over a screenshot in #screenshots for example. Idk how hard this would be to moderate tho

[little locust]

I think the reason why #screenshots is so restricted now, it's because of drama and difficulty of moderation, so threads would contradict the attachment only system.

KissMP itself is dead too, so makes sense
I don't get how WhyBeAre's is still kicking

[native turret]

#screenshots seems nearly unmoderated for swearing

[little locust]

Lemme guess, you're complaining because of this?

If so, gosh why people are so sensitive, like don't interact with internet at all if you can't stand such words.

[native turret]

Not that I can’t handle it. I literally left this sievert for 3 weeks, and when I came back the moderation standards were much lower

[little locust]

Um no, it has always been that way, only #BEAMNG and #HELP channels have filter on, the rest not and even so what's the deal, if someone says something severely bad a real mod will moderate him.

[native turret]

Alright. I guess people just started cursing more

[native turret]

[native turret]

It’s a Bible scripture lol. It explains why I do not curse. But to each their own. I don’t know why people would swear more now than they did a month ago

[little locust]

Sorry I'm not strongly religious, but yeah as SDB said above it's the internet.
Personally I don't see how a simple fuk or shi can be unsettling.

Yeah you might want to DM leeloo :P

I can give you the role but I'm not sure if there is any other administration behind it :P

[bold ice]

can i dm them on discord or is it forum only?

[mental pecan]

Discord should be fine

[bold ice]

alright, thanks

[snow condor]

I'll wait a couple more days to be fair then will send a DM 👍

[native turret]

I think people like Theo or Shados deserve it. Maybe not lower-level modders like us. Let me know if you get it

[snow condor]

I think that's very rude. We all put effort into our mods?
Car mods take far more effort by nature but it's not I've lazily slapped mine together and begged for a role? The role is for content creators; by definition in #welcome: "modders"
It doesn't state you have to be a "high level" modder and I don't think it should

[native turret]

I mean, that’s true. I wasn’t just referencing you, myself as well. Frankly applying for the role never crossed my mind

[tepid quest]

In my opinion, though it has no relevance, "modders" should only be described as individuals who are known for the content they produce. If anyone considers "low-level" modders to be content creators, then damn everyone here would practically be served the role. I feel keeping the exclusivity of the role to individuals who willingly deserve it regarding their content and how relevant it is throughout the community will serve best fit in deciding whom will get the role. Prop modders are very likely to be beginners, and there are many of them, so yet again, I don't deem them to fit the role quite yet. If you think it's rude, then I apologize. Though I'm just blatantly expressing my opinion and hope to god this doesn't start fights.

[native turret]

I agree 150%. Like i said, i never applied, because all I’m really known for is Flooded WCUSA lol

[bold ice]

I’m not some kinda higher being lol

[snow condor]

I just don't feel being told you're different and don't deserve a role (which is cosmetic really) because you don't make models or stuff. But the final decision is in beam's staff not us. If they decide that people like me don't deserved to be recognised as modders, that's okay with me, I'll live with it

[left violet]

I think the main reason I got it was because of my channel lol, other than that I just make skins.

[jade terrace]

Check your spam

[jade terrace]

Check ya spam also, it happened to me before I joined, email sent to spam for me in the past. XD

[left violet]

Theo you're finally

[jade terrace]

@bold ice Got ya sorted.

[jade terrace]

Please message @graceful sparrow & well see if we can get you sorted out too. (Sorry for the ping!)

[frail fractal]

alright, will do

[left violet]

You are also now

[snow condor]

Yeah, nothing there

[jade terrace]

Send it again.

[snow condor]

Alright
(double checking: it is [e-mail]?)

[zealous sphinx]

Yes.

[snow condor]

👍

[feral shell]

okay, i got a thing i need to say how do i become a contributor?

[native turret]

#welcome

it lists roles and descriptions

[feral shell]

ah i forgot about that i feel dumb now, but thank you

[upper verge]

#screenshots -place to share screenshots***, only messages with attachments are allowed***
#automotive - all things about automotive (stuff)

[little locust]

#game-feedback Only feedback, ideas and bug reporting, in case you're having issues with the game, visit #support first. [...]

[upper verge]

Is it just me or did the server lose braincells in the past few days?

[inland prawn]

Lmao yeah I think so too

[native turret]

What braincells?

[upper verge]

These:

[native turret]

There was a rule I had in my server back when ai had one that said “Do not be childish. If you act like you are too young for Discord ToS you don’t belong in this server”. I think this server could benefit fromsomething like that

[native turret]

I’ve probably requested this five tiles… and that’s just me.

[true fern]

Sounds like you’re losing sleep over that issue as well

[native turret]

​

[native turret]

agree

[sharp shell]

90% of it would have to be banned then... lol

[scenic garnet]

yes, literally everyone’s requesting this

[native turret]

Thank you for the channel update!!

[narrow cliff]

discord.gg/beammp

[little locust]

Lmao

[native turret]

I would change the name of #modding-general to #help-with-modmaking or something. People get way too confused and ask for help with low quality mods

[spring tulip]

we changed it, hope it helps at least a little bit to keep those channels on the correct topic

[native turret]

Thank you

[peak ivy]

who do i ask for the mod role?

@spring tulip no, not moderations, content creator (as in, game mods)

[spring tulip]

You mean to become a moderator? You'll need to wait until applications open again and be over 18

[spring tulip]

Oh then just follow this, it's in #welcome

[umbral loom]

yes u didnt know?

[bronze geode]

why no voice chat?

[native turret]

For the 15 millionth time in this channel, vc’s are too hard to moderate.

[rotund nest]

This.

[native turret]

You should honestly pin stuff like that, that new folks ask all the time

[hollow elk]

why would beamng discord even need vc

[livid sparrow]

most servers have no problem with vcs

[snow condor]

This isn't "most servers"

[livid sparrow]

because theres like a 40 minute slow mode on every channel

[hollow elk]

reduced slow modes because it's difficult to continue conversation when theres a 4 minute buffer

[spring tulip]

feedback channels purposely have a long slowmode to actually deter conversations, this way it's easier to go through feedback for us and the devs.
If you see something you want to discuss in a feedback channel then use a discussion channel

[livid sparrow]

"hiring" more mods should be pretty easy though considering they aren't paid

[snow condor]

I doubt mods want to sit in a voice channel all day

[native turret]

"Hiring" mods is easy, finding mods you can trust is not.

[spring tulip]

We can't just have anyone on board, this being a large server and for an actual company means there needs to be a stricter selection process than just a friend's server or something like that

[spring tulip]

Another issue here is most of us have work irl besides this, when we're online it doesn't mean we're constantly glued to the channels here either (which is why we rely on your reports too), however a VC needs more concentration and possibly confronting someone there is a bit different to some text

Having said that we bring up the discussion of VC's every now and then in our chat but we aren't quite ready for it now

[livid sparrow]

sure, but out of fifty eight thousand five hundred and seventy two people there's gotta be some

[spring tulip]

Last set of applications were nowhere near that number of course lmao, and like mentioned before it needs to be trustworthy people and over 18 for signing the NDA

[glad karma]

Maybe a way to control vc is using a bot, the bot records the conversation and deletes it after let’s say 2 days, a user can then report it if there’s a violation with date and time and voice channel id, the mods then can search that recorded file and listen to it to see if it has any violations. Idk if this is even allowed by discord and privacy rights, if it’s allowed you can add a self role with the description:”ONLY GET THIS ROLE IF YOU AGREE YOUR VC CONVERSATIONS BEING RECORDED”to be sure

[agile perch]

Or because that would be hell to create just don't have vc?

[bold ice]

why do you need a role to use bot commands

[native turret]

Good question. We just tell everyone anyway

[little locust]

You know that I don't know?

[bold ice]

wh at

[native turret]

I suggest changing the content creator or server booster colors. I find them confusing.

[left violet]

Darken the purple slightly more and it's fine. They're not that similar at all.

[native turret]

For me it's nearly identical. May just be my screen, idk

[little locust]

He's not that wrong tho, it's not confusing but why not having 2 different colors, maybe red color for content creators.

[left violet]

They're fine as they are tbh.

[jade terrace]

booster & content creator can easily be told apart.

[left violet]

Mhm.

[little locust]

Just saw this now, why do we need a VC channel in first place?

[glad karma]

idk, but people where asking for it, so this could be a solution

[amber shard]

to talk while hotlapping or troubleshooting

or multiplayer

[snow condor]

Private voice calls exist, use them

[native turret]

I don't mind slowmode in discussion channels, but in #modding-general even 5 seconds is a bit much

[gritty isle]

to TALK, and not just write. since it is waaay harder to comunicate per chat than per VC

[little locust]

Not for me tbh, if it's chat it's chat, if it's VC it's VC, not like it makes a difference to me, VC might be more involving and direct but that's the problem with its moderation. As for for chatting while playing as someone pointed out you can go make your private call.

[gritty isle]

not my problem, so i dont care. the mod. reason is just CAP since u dont need to do that. its VC

[severe hemlock]

What???

Like stated before, its incredibly difficult to moderate VCs. We would love to be able to add them but they would be abused, which has been proven by many of our other features we've added before.

[little locust]

I understand it's not your problem, but it's the moderator's problem and guess who are the people who read and accept or decline our suggestions? Moderators, so I was just pointing out the reason why a VC isn't going to be created anytime soon.
As for moderating, ofc you (not you but the moderators) need to do that like they're doing in all channels of this server otherwise it could become a hell place from kids insulting each other to potential criminal behaviours (and yall know what I'm talking about).

[gritty isle]

it is a thing of opinion. And i have never seen a VC being moderated, so I can see where the problem is but i dont have any solution. Thats why im wondering: why is beamNG the only server without VC that i know of?

[native turret]

This server has a massive issue with drama, we can barely control it when its in text and get berated for doing so... so why would we have a VC which would be even worse

[livid sparrow]

suggestion: make server anarchy lol

[native turret]

Im sorry we cant do something that is already happening

[topaz summit]

alright here we go. did people ever complain about others using this recent work around aka chatting with beam pics included

[native turret]

yes 🙂

[stoic hatch]

.

[bold steppe]

Yk this is good and bad.

this just dries out the fact of screenshots channel. its gonna be dry, boring, and no way of like asking for "image skills" or reshade stuff.

good thing no more drama. but isnt their a way to ban someone from typing in the channel if they disobey the drama stuff?

[narrow cliff]

so what are you allowed to post now if no more screenshots and memes?

[severe hemlock]

I mean someone literally complained about it half an hour ago...

[left violet]

Well, as good of an idea as it is, there's two key problems imo which will happen after this.
A. Drama is going to be directed towards other channels, you can't exactly control it other than punishing those who are doing wrong. I know it's been to prevent it in screenshots, but unfortunately you can't stop people having pathetic arguments.
B. Having it attachment only, without the ability to leave messages, yes it's not meant to be a talking channel, but on the off-chance someone wants to ask a question, or leave a compliment on someone's picture, or critique it, and such else, it removes that entirely. Which, for a screenshots channel may be good and to keep drama away, but for a lot of people, all they want to do is post screenshots and comment on others, without causing drama. Some people, such as myself, do sometimes like to put captions on my images, and having that ability removed is slightly upsetting, but there's not much that can be done.

This is just how I feel, feel free to disagree, there's nothing wrong with it whatsoever.

[native turret]

afaik you cant ban specific people from specific channels, you can only remove roles from a channel

[native turret]

you can still post screenshots and memes

just not text

[bold ice]

this is a discord server, a place to message people
and you guys have removed that ability in 3 channels

[native turret]

it can only be images

[native turret]

its also a place to be able to talk without getting yelled at all the time
but this community made that impossible so

if yall want to be able to talk in those channels, earn it. The community lost text only messages, and still continued with image required messages, so here we are

[frail fractal]

what you guys just did in #screenshots is frankly insane

discord is a platform to talk to people, and you've just removed that ability in 3 channels

people are gonna argue, that's just what happens, but angering them further by removing such abilities and rendering a channel useless won't help anyone and will divert that anger to others

[native turret]

its because that was a hotspot of drama

[jade terrace]

You can but that would be very annoying as you'd have to do it manually for every user, with almost 60k user's that's a bit much.

[stoic hatch]

I am 40% sure this is why the rule was just made. Also I don’t care that it was removed but Isn’t the whole point of having moderation in severs is to stop stuff like drama from happening?

[native turret]

oh really? im assuming its via a bot then as compared to the discord internal

[jade terrace]

Good thing we have many other channels for talking in :D

[bold steppe]

Honestly. 1 warn, next is ban (from channel). its the same people over and over causing issues. there is no need to punish those who arent doing bad. Ik its tough, but thats why there should be a place to report people. or able to just ping a mod to who is doing it. thats it. Drama may be something that isnt avoidable, but its no fun not talking in screenshots. i love that place.

[native turret]

Correct, and we are doing what we can but when every 30m we have to hop in to make sure that yall are not attacking each other because someone used a mod they didnt like...

we have lives too

[topaz summit]

wait you cant chat in memes channel? Whats even the point of it anymore loool

[narrow cliff]

cant you use the contributor role for that? You are already weeding out people with that, so it would finally have a use

[left violet]

Knowing the community we're never getting that back ever, lol. It's not y'alls fault though, not at all. Some people can't seem to keep things to themselves and take it out on others, causing drama and hassle for you as moderators to handle. So I do see why it's been done, just a little sad for some who have done nothing wrong. What's done is done.

[severe hemlock]

The community as a whole has proven time and time again that it can't handle doing both talking and posting screenshots. Most of you are not part of the problem, but there are many here that would prefer to argue and start drama about petty things for no reason. Its been out of hand, and no matter the number of moderators we have it would've still been problematic.

[native turret]

Some of the worst people in that chat tend to be contributors

[jade terrace]

Also to add onto this we could have ither A: done what we did or B: made it so only 1 comment every 15-20 mins.

[bold ice]

you can remove certain people from channels lol
i understand why yall have done this, but it will probably put off a lot of people from using the channel

[jade terrace]

I've already replied to this, Look above.

[native turret]

Ah I was unaware of that... that would become a massive mess fast once you get more than 50 people and whatnot ;-;

[jade terrace]

Here

[severe hemlock]

Look how active its been since the change already, and yet, zero drama.

[native turret]

Should be noted, you can still discuss screenshots or request them and whatnot

[bold steppe]

Cant you guys limit how much someone can speak? lets say 3 messages per every 2 mins? this will limit others from arguing.
What im tryna say is like you can say 3 messages, but after that it stops you till 2 mins pass if that makes sense. If this is possible it could work. its just to let people compliment at least. would make sense for 2-3 messages per 2 mins. yk?

[native turret]

you just have to use a channel for chatting n stuff

[stoic hatch]

To sum everything up for everyone.

You can’t talk in screenshots so deal with it, no one can talk unless you have a role that allows you to. Contributors cause most drama so they won’t have the ability to talk and you will just have to live with it. Now your caught up.

[severe hemlock]

People can use the thumbs up reaction as complements

[topaz summit]

Tinder pick up line: 👍

[feral shell]

tbh, yeah what they did sucks but tbh the people arguing ruined it and its their fault how about we as a community try to earn that back besides complaining?

[bold steppe]

(we can just make a trusted role, people we know who wont cause drama can have the trusted role. not all contributors are bad)

[bold ice]

i might be wrong then
whats the alternative channel if you want to reply to a screenshot
or is there one

[spring tulip]

.. people might end up complaining why they aren't trusted 😅

[native turret]

Users could also be like
"Hey @bold steppe I like that screenshot you just posted, what reshade did you use and do you have any other views"
In #game-discussion-1 or whatnot
(sorry for the example ping stance ❤️ )

[feral shell]

besides its not the end of the world that they removed that anyways lol

[topaz summit]

Wouldnt that be the same issue as the last one stated, sorting thru 60k peeps?

[narrow cliff]

what screenshot? people usually post a bunch, in this case you can just post the screenshot in general

[frail fractal]

i understand that it's difficult to keep up with and monitor drama with 60,000 people in a server, but isn't that why there's quite a few of you? it's always the same people causing it anyway, so it wouldn't be too hard to take action against them. i hardly ever, if ever, see any action being taken against anyone in that channel, not even warnings.

plus, not all 60,000 are in a channel at one time, it's most likely gonna be like 10

[bold steppe]

Its good dont worry :) i dont mind

[left violet]

In the end, there's always going to be drama, with or without these restrictions, any amount of it won't fix it, so we just have to put up with what has happened. It is what it is.

[native turret]

Yes but unless we had 20 online at any given time there is always times where people are at work, or eating dinner, or in VR or being human

[severe hemlock]

I'm not sure what channel discussions should get sent to, as we are still trying to figure out what the best course is

[feral shell]

true but at that time people might be able to calm down and maybe matured and not act like kids who didn't get anything for their birthday

[severe hemlock]

But #game-discussion-1 would be fine to use for that imo

[bold ice]

being human? i dont allow my server's 10 moderators that privilege

[frail fractal]

i can confirm this

[left violet]

what is human

[neat pollen]

(please help)

[bold steppe]

Yes, but dont they already complain about being muted?

[jade terrace]

Also note you can ping & discuss screenshots at the moment in #off-topic if you wanted to ask them "what mod" "is it private" "Cool screenshot" ETC

[native turret]

Hey when we are locked in chuck's basement we do what we can to feel human at least

[topaz summit]

if there is/will be a channel to discuss pics, the drama would just be in a different channel causing the same thing over again no?

[jade terrace]

We'll replace them with bot's ASAP /s thank you for the feedback!
