Live chat platform

[Pandagoose]

Hi, I was wondering if there was any group chat or live chat platform like discord or whatsoever, as it gets kinda lonely starting out in the craft.

If not, would it be ok to create one?

There are no official BALG discourse groups.

Yes, you can create your own group; many here have them, but you cannot use the BALG name. You also cannot publicly link it on the forum, nor can you advertise it or recruit for it. The only place you may link to it is in your personal profile.

★ Since autumn 2018, we have had an increasing number of groups, usually on Discord, being promoted on the forum, culminating in some rule-breaking and very abusive behaviour recently that originated on one of these groups. For this reason, external groups, “Orders,” and communities are now in the same status as commercial endeavours and political interests/working groups.

This means you MAY place links to your groups, “Orders,” and external communities in your forum profile, but you may NOT post those links or promotional material on the forum, or initiate a PM to try and recruit people. This applies as of 25th March 2019.

Be aware that BALG Discord groups do not exist – please see this link for information about that.
