Discord Guidelines

We encourage you to stay around for a while after you ask a question. Listen to the various discussions in different threads. Someone will likely have an answer to your question once they check in. If you don't get a response someone might not know the answer or the person who knows it is hasn't read it yet.

To assist those looking for help, please make use of the off-topic channel to lower the noise for others. This also helps reduce the backlog so that others can catch up.

If you want to draw someone's attention, type their name to ping them. Don't be rude though.

To prevent flooding the channel, please also use a service like https://bpaste.net/ instead of pasting your logs directly.

You can also set the Discord notifications setting to “Mentions only” so that you will only be disturbed when someone writes your name.
