discord for SVS? and also subscription question

arielg

@Nyrryl-Cadiz @danielerossi just FYI when i signed up before subscribing i could not access the forums.
but that's fine, and its cool that you can still access.

Nyrryl Cadiz

@arielg I don't know what happened with your case. I joined the forum months before I even subscribed to SVS. Maybe your sign in info was wrong

TessaW

@arielg So you mean you couldn't see any of the posts or go into the forums at all? Weird! What did it look like on your end. Did you get a screen that said "access denied" or something? Sometimes I cancel my subscription, but I have always had access to the forums and am able to post. They seem to treat the forums and the subscription as separate accounts with different logins- so I'm not sure how you accessed it through your subscription at all? Is it just different on my end? When you subscribed to the classes, did it let you sign into the forums with the same password/account?

Nyrryl Cadiz

@arielg just curious, did you just finished using the SVS free subscription when you tried to log in to the forums but couldn't? Because that means that you made a user account with the SVS school but you don't have an account with the forum yet. The SVS forum and the School are two separate platforms. If you're signed up with the school, it doesn't mean that you're also signed up with the Forum. You probably couldn't log in because you still did not have an account.

@TessaW I actually dont remember that good because it was 2 months ago, but i think perhaps i wasnt able to post anything. until i subscribed.

arielg

@Nyrryl-Cadiz yes, i think you are right, then perhaps that mistake made me think i couldn't register to the forums.
but its too long ago for me to remember which is which..thanks

also i do remember that i managed to sign in, but could not post.

@arielg really? It is weird! I haven't subscribed to the courses yet (I have done a trial version but was already posting on the forum before). Anyway! The good thing is, you stick with us now

@Braden-Hallett how is discord ? I heard a lot about this platform. Is it sort of chat room organised by category? A more lively forum? Can you still search for a discussion even after it is closed? What s the benefit to be on SVS discord rather tgan on the forum? Is the spirit of the platform like here? (I mean, nice and friendly?)

@Braden-Hallett Oh gosh I did not know there was a group hanging on discord! Do you all mind if I poke my head in from time to time? I moderate a few communities on there so my discord time is often pretty full but I'd honestly love a low-key hangout with friends from the forum

arielg

I signed in, so far its a quiet community, which is already a big plus (the discord one!)

Pretty much, yup

As far as I know it all sticks around. Forever. Foreeeeeeveeeeeeeer.

Not an SVS discord, just a discord where a few people from SVS chat We all still hang out on the forum, too. They fill different roles.

It's a private server (you need to apply to join) so the spirit is absolutely nice and friendly (if a little different in flavour).

Definitely a smaller community. They're moderately selective about membership. Which makes me feel incredibly guilty, lol.

@Braden-Hallett interesting! Thank you!!

@Braden-Hallett Hi, thanks but can you send me a new one? Sorry I only see this now, discord for me is way more proficient than the forum, because of other communities I follow there, So you got everything under ‘one roof’ , way more handy to me
