8bitwidgets.com Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 I'd be willing to do it, though i've never hosted a channel before. Maybe someone already has one? I am in the atariage one but while it's nice, it's a bit broad.. the "programming section" would seem a bit diluted considering how many vintage devices are being developed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Does Discord maintain discussion for a little while, something like chatting in Slack, or is it instant like IRC? I've never used Discord so I don't know what to gain from chatting over there. Also it assumes you'd have others to chat with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never got into slack when it was all the rage.. it's probably come a long way.. I just know discord has become the latest platform for both gamers and game developers.. and of course all kinds of other stuff. yea i guess I was seeing it as a little more realtime and it's able to display code well, but i suppose it probably might be overkill. Seeing Atari Age has a channel, it would be GREAT if they could just give intellivision it's own little channel since. I feel like if posting questions in the general "programming" section it would just be lost in a muddle of various projects / languages / platforms..

Zendocon Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 There is already an Intellivision Discord server, with a #game_dev channel. AtariAge has a Discord server of its own as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitwidgets.com Posted September 5, 2021 Author Share Posted September 5, 2021 i'll definitely get into that one then. the atari age discord is too broad and doesn't cater to intellivision specifically so i left that group.. @Zendocon thanks for sharing that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
