Option to display Discord Username in Forums Profile/etc

[4g0tt3nSou1]

Title is pretty self-explanatory. Discord has became one of the largest communication platforms for gaming and as a whole. We seem to take discord as an afterthought, even though a majority of users in our community most likely have a discord.

By allowing us to display our Discord info on the forums, we can better connect with each other as a community.

If you think this is an unnecessary addition, I ask you why do we still have slots for ICQ Number, AIM Screen Name, MSN Messenger Handle, Yahoo! Messenger Handle? Let's be real, Nobody has used most of those in probably a decade. We need to socially keep up with the times!

I feel a great way to ease back into the future is this kind of small addition, and with time utilizing the future a little more as comfortable. But we definitely need to work towards it.\

Thank you for your time!

Or just put it in your signature

That would only appear on posts, not your profile, no?

Because Vbulletin came with this by default, at the time. The forum has been around a while you know.

This is relatively easy to add in the settings though.

I personally think the forums are due for a face lift, but maybe that's something for down the pipeline.

We’re always looking to improve it - we’ve just spent most time prioritizing the game servers than this. Lack of web devs too.

It’ll happen, at some point. But we will always prioritize the game servers.

That would have to be edited manually in one of the templates

For now this will be put to the side, but it shall not be forgotten (no pun intended).

Great suggestion!
