Discord for Starship pilots?
-
That sounds excellent. Please make a ticket with Just Flight Support saying that I told you to get in touch with me. They should forward that to me by Monday. This is exactly the kind of relationship I've been looking for with a Discord Moderator. I stay away from most social media, because I have a hard enough time already answering questions here and also developing new aircraft! Having someone in the aviation industry and a fellow pilot is just about the perfect combination. Looking forward to it!

@ch0llis Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain it and clarify.
I don't really view inviting fellow enthusiasts to a Discord server as 'promoting another service' just given that there's really nothing to be gained by doing it. I "have no dog in the hunt," as they say. It certainly could never take the place of the forum in terms of being the appropriate avenue for product support.
I certainly understand the purpose and presence of this forum, but it brings with it certain limitations. Can't share media or photos, no DM's, etc. Not to mention that you obviously can't communicate on voice in a forum
Given that I'm not the only person who's suggested it now, I'm still happy to share the Starship Society discord with everyone, but only with Nick's blessing. With the number one server rule being that anything related to product support has to come to the forums.
What say you Nick?

Just Flight don't offer product support on the forum, we have a ticketing system for that as it's better suited. The purpose of the forum is to foster community amongst customers of the products we develop, publish and retail - so it serves a similar purpose to Discord even if there's no personal gain.

Image uploading will return, hopefully very soon, it's currently disabled due to our storage provider plugin not being compatible with the latest forum software.
DMs/Chat has been disabled temporarily while we work out the implications of new legislation in the UK. We hope to restore that functionality as soon as we can.I'll let you two deal with further Discord discussion

@Black-Square Thanks Nick! I give you my word, it'll get done right and the community guidelines will be designed to keep the server's purpose in the world in the right context.
If JustFlight can put us in touch, I'd be happy to spend half an hour or so with you previewing it before I open the doors to the community, and would be delighted to hear and feedback or input you have for it! Won't be for a little while, have a little ways to go before it's ready for prime time.
@SinkRate Just going through my emails before Flight Sim Expo. Yours is the Gmail with the number 4 in it?

I would also love to get on this if its still an ongoing thing. I fly the Starship often and truly love this thing.
There doesn't seem to be a way to seind a PM through this forum.
