I can shorten this into 3 eras:
before forum
before discourse migration
today
doesn’t really tell the story, more like categories for the eras rather than eras themselves
Well, this is actually the 2nd forum. The first forum platform was Circle, but it didn’t have enough moderation so it moved to Discourse.
Edit: There was also a false reporter incident in the old forums, and the whole forum on the old side, it was GONE. And by Gone, i mean EVERYTHING was lost.
It was also made in the forum platform “Circle”, false reports were allowed for some reason, and 1 report makes a post go “bye-bye”.
Yeah.
That is why “before discourse migration” is second
Yeah, but there are also periods like the “GimAI” era
I’m talking about larger categories for eras, which I call eons.
By the way, I should create a chart to showcase these eras and eons
No, that would probably get you in trouble.
Era | Eon |
---|---|
N/A | No forum yet |
Circle Forum Grace Period | Pre-Discourse |
False reports | |
May 25th - migration | Discourse |
Early Discourse | |
GimAI | |
Post Gim-AI | |
July - Grace Period | |
Today |
The GimAI era was very large, not in time, but in size, if you know what I mean.
TLDR; Some AI that helped you with Gimkit came on that kind of ruined the purpose of the forums, everyone started using it, some people trained it badly, it went crazy, the mods banned it, the creator decided to stop using it (forever).
During N/A, the forum was in a channel in the discord server.
Perfect, It goes right in my usercard
