Since most of us are on discord, I think it might be a good idea to have a new profile field for discord name, so we can tell who is who better.

It should be a single line text field that is displayed on a profile. I don't think it needs to be linked, it's just something that can be used to correlate a poster's identity to their discord identity. Might be a good idea to have it visible next to posts as well possibly.

If you need help setting it up, Kain, let me know and I should be able to walk you through it.

I second this!

ICQ: (No one uses this.)
AIM: (AOL, that's like dialup of the past. Why do we want to be reminded?)
MSN: (Now Skype - Skype has adware, and a horrible interface.)
YIM: (Yahoo is famous for being hacked? But not that good either.)

Although, thinking about it more, I think we should change how this stuff works.
So like... one example:  A Discord slot, and then a single "Custom" slot for preferred contact? (Get rid of the four current ICQ/AIM/MSN/YIM labels. Assuming they're used even less commonly, and also not worth advertising.)

Maybe some smileys: (Brackets or colons.)
[DIS] or [DCD]
[ICQ]
[AIM]
[MSN]
[YIM]

Sometimes I like to compare apples to oranges. (Figuratively) ... They are both fruits, but which one would you eat more? (If taken literally, I'd probably choose apples.)
Maybe it is over-analyzing, but it doesn't mean the information is useless.


The only GS Discord servers with significance are:
Golden Sun Hacking Community
GS Speedrunning
/r/Golden Sun
GS United Nations
Temple of Kraden

Can you believe how small the Golden Sun Community is?

2+2=5 Don't believe me? Those are rounded decimal numbers. Take that, flat earth theorists! :)

Done

It would be nice if you could customize the social media accounts that show up on your profile, but they're kind of hard-coded in so it would take a lot of work.

Thanks, Atrius!!

Edit: can't find it under the profile, is it hidden?

I see the place to insert the Discord name.
I do not see a Discord column here, though: http://forum.goldensunhacking.net/index.php?action=mlist


@roger = The website on your profile gives an Error in the title bar.

Thanks, Fox

Yeah I'm aware it's down, I haven't been able to pay for the fees to keep it up. Unemployment sucks.

You are welcome!

Aw. Mind if I ask what the fees are?
Maybe we could get a few guys to pitch in and help.

Good news over here is that I am currently employed. (After being unemployed for so long.)
Still though... Chances are, it is more than I'm willing to afford. (e.g. I need to build bank. - Reach certain values, and never go under them sort of thing.)

If you check out (eg; https://www.google.com/search?ei=OHjBWpjxLs645gLq277wDQ&q=us+unemployment+rate+by+year&oq=employment+rate&gs_l=psy-ab.1.0.0i71k1l8.0.0.0.8632.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1c..64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.UqqSwb6gwO0 ), hopefully that raises at least *some* hope... unless you are choosing to be self-employed via your Colors Chromatics project? Hm?
The statistic I'd be much more interested in is what percentage of people actually enjoy their jobs? :D
Including the percentage of people in career-based jobs? (Ones that aren't dead-end and low-paying.)
