#a "forum" for class discussion

Issue: lots of information on this discord in general chat, but it's not structured in an easy way to sift through. When searching for key words like "farm" or "levelling" you're presented with hundreds of pages of data, some of them being relevant and some not.

Solution: Please create a section on the discord for class discussion, in the same "forum" style format as the suggestion section. The great part about this is that it doesn't require any game development and could be rolled out quickly (tbh I don't know why we don't already have this)

An example of the layout could be:

[Class name - one header for each class]
Guides (forum)
Build discussions (forum)
Character stats (to post screenshots - forum)

Or a more condensed version:

[Class name - (forum)] which would require more moderation as to what content is posted, but still better than what we have now.

Subsequently, you could create a section for general guides for things like pet builds, farming spots, consumables, etc.

Potential issues:
catering for multiple languages
Spam in class forums / offtopic chat
Misinformation? Idk

Conceptually it could look like this (below):

0or they could just add channels to the discord on each master class ...

Yeah a channel per class would be really great.

I think only adding a channel for each will eventually present with the same issues now.. lots of information but it's not sorted in any meaningful way.

The proposed idea above is actually only one channel for each broken into "forum posts" in the same way the suggestions channel is only one channel, but has individual suggestions separated out.

#

I.e. the difference between adding another channel that looks like the "general chat" and one that is actually segmented

I think it's a really low effort implementation for such a huge amount of gain in the community

You can make class channels and then make multiple threads per channel over different subjects and in the main channel lock it and make a post going over subject topic with a link to each thread, if you're stuck using discord that is

Another example of why we should have this.
