Ooh, also every person you speak to on the forum has made the bodacious decision to be a member of TEST.

This automatically qualifies all discussion partners to utmost respect as You yourself are due for having made the same brilliant decision, this mutual respect helps everyone Be Excellent To Each Other - unless they haven't joined TEST yet or are filthy affiliates of course but still, respect for all is just a nice thing to do yo.

To summarise it's like a sensible and mature persons communication method rather than the "50 people talking at once about completely differnt things" that discord kinda is?

Everything is organised into topics for example this "post" is a thread about how forums work and will contain many useful answers and opinions that you can access and read clearly and easily in date order.

If you want to read about something else you can back up to the list of topics and read about something else.

You can also do advanced searches to find the topic that discusses whatever you need.

Trying to learn forums spent too long on discord!

Teach me why are forums better than discord
Words, my friend. Which can be formed into coherent thoughts at a particular point in time, and shared with others. Whereupon they too, can form coherent thoughts and share them in return.

Doesn't happen often, but that's the theory 🍻

It's like the difference between going for a beer at your local pub where you'll always find some of the regulars, and shouting over the music with an ever-changing crowd of mates, people you've met a few times and strangers at a convention. Both are good.

So much TESTcellence deserves a meme!
