hey can you not use @everyone or @here for announcements unless people Need to read them, it's annoying for people who don't care about the harry potter stuff like people who do care will check announcements but if i see that little red 1 then I think it's important

We use that for specific announcements that pertain to the entire chat. We use them for the house points winner specifically because it relates to the chatter role color changing, which can be a big deal for many users. The problem we’ve faced in the past is that people mute the announcements channel; then we post in there and they freak out because something changes and they didn’t have advance notice. So, we have to use the @ functions to make sure people know about the changes and we don’t have to field a multitude of repetitive questions because people want to mute an important channel.

I understand it’s annoying, but one notification a couple of times a month is far less annoying than 20 notifications in one day because people don’t read/mute the announcements channel.

i have a cousin who is Ace and I'm not sure how to help her, I want to be able to help but i cant, I try my hardest but I just will never be able to see eye to eye with her and I just don't know what to do, would you mind talking to her? I just feel like she needs someone who is going to be able to relate to the things she feels and has been through...

She’s definitely welcome to join the chat whenever she feels comfortable.

Hi, the link says it's expired :) !

I just tested it and it works on my end. 

[acespacenews]

how bout i just tell ya to o fuck yourself

I mean....you could, but I wouldn’t. 

Also, care to explain why? If there’s a genuine concern with the chat, it’d be a lot more productive to let us know the actual reasoning behind your anger rather than just a vague, typo-ed anonymous insult.

Hi! I was going through the docs that explain the chat rules and such and when I tried to look at the one that explains the trigger tagging information it says the document can't be found?

Yeah, I’m looking through the google drive and I’m not seeing it either. It was originally created by someone who isn’t a mod anymore so maybe they accidentally removed it from their drive? No idea. 

In any case, you can find explanations of the trigger tagging information in the #rules channel along with a list of possible triggers in the #resources channel. 

If you have questions about a specific topic/word, you can either ask it here anonymously and we’ll address it for you, or you can PM a mod or ask in the #ask-a-mod channel.

I joined a few days ago and everyone seems really nice but I have p had anxiety. Do you have any tips for starting out how to get yourself to engage more or something?

Maybe wait until chat is a bit more quiet (certain times of day are busier than others) and then when it’s been slow for awhile, it’ll be easier just to pop in and say Hi and start a conversation? 

You can also just start with little things. You don’t have to full on engage in conversations in order to integrate in the chat. Maybe just start with one or two word comments on something someone else has said? Nothing super committed to the conversation if you’re not up for that or if you might need to step back.
