One works inside of Discord. The other one does not.

Get your divider here by copying this to your Discord server: “💡 ┃community-feedback”.

Before we hand out the task of community management to someone else, we want to make sure that we create a great community that is benefitting us.

Your community will help you bring success to your game while remaining financially stable in the future.

Remember, there is a whole category of gamers who just play games to “network”. So the community is as much part of your game, as the audio, visuals and code.

We don’t want your engagement from a community manager that goes: ”So how is everyone doing…?”, every few days effectively alienating your engagement.

Your community is your biggest asset when it comes to testing you marketing messages and upselling future products.

When we are soft launching our community, we want to only launch it with a minimal amount of channels or sub-forums, to make sure people start talking to each other.

Have you ever been in a Discord server with 20 channels and no one communicating? That’s part of the reason why.

When we build our community structure, we are creating it for our “dream” community down the line.

Resist the urge of immediately add channels or forums whenever someone demands one and make their naming precise enough for people to immediately know their purpose.
