What do we plan on using this for?

This is cool and all but what should we use it for? Could this potentially replace #🔨┃develop-your-project-archive? It has much nicer UI and a forum doesn't get closed removing the need for a bot like @Thread-Watcher. Things this could also replace are: #📦┃finished-project-archive (depends if you can sent files and use Discord formatting, which you can), #🎤┃project-discussion (this could also tie in with #📦┃finished-project-archive). It could also replace #🔍┃job-offers. Overall I think this has some cool features. If only we could make it so forums could have tags. Like an "project" or "job offer" tag. Anyway curious to hear your thoughts :)

We can also pin posts which is quite nice That would help if we want to have a page of rules and guidelines. Like how to use forums properly

Yes but they should still be viewable if someone goes to #💬┃forum

Nope It dies after archive. I guess we would need @Thread-Watcher And make it watch all posts

Yeah but I mean for naming of your post if we go that route See #💬┃moderation

and I already typed out a similar message in #💬┃moderation, but then continued to ask if only one forum is possible per guild

We could do something like "Project: MyAmazingProject is finally released!" Well one forum but I mean posts. Having rules so people name their posts like this could simplify the number of text channels we have

I WAS THINKING EXACTLY THAT Threads are just temporary text channels to split discussions so they don't end up in an out of context mess Forums are much better suited for this

Yeah that is my opinion as well

yes, definitely. I've seen some servers simulating it with channels, threads, bots, ..., but I never thought discord would actually ship it natively

ahhhh i see, that would be cool it wouldn't really fit to discord tho, as it's more like a conversation and less like comments here.
