Please refer to the Chat Code of Conduct.
Discord
Visit avlis.org for current Discord Join links (top left of portal page).
Avlis currently operates the Avlis Discord server
The Avlis Discord server is where you can communicate with the team and other players. It is Discord only, so does not have a connection to IRC.
Post an event on Discord
We've added an event system to the Team Avlis Discord channel. You can post events and Apollo will automatically notify your attendees 15 minutes prior to an event. Your attendees can also add the event to their google calendar.
How to use it:
1. Go to Chat with the Team (official Avlis channel).
2. Type the message: /event (and post it).
3. Apollo (bot) will send you a private message on Discord taking you through the process.
4. When it asks Where would you like to post this event? make sure to post to #announcements.
That's it! It's pretty easy to use. On the posted event, the event creator can edit or delete if needed.

Important:
[1] Discord is NOT an In Character space. Make an IC event post on the Avlis forums BEFORE you use Apollo to promote it.
[2] The Discord event bot does NOT interact with the Avlis forum event calendar. You can create an event in either or both locations.
