It is disabled because someone could troll on dynmap and there is nothing we can do about it. With discord you can atlease ban someone and stop them.
Well there is one thing, when it is required to register yourself for dynmap from within the game, and then you'd be allowed to use that chat. But that also bars dynmap behind this 'must register first' wall. Due to requests that wall was removed, which then actually started that entire "lets troll on dynmap" thing, which made me disable the chat alltogether.
Though there are always other ways as well to enable some chat service out of the scope of Teamspeak and Discord (like web integration for example).
Not right now no, in Discord it looks like they wanted to have either text or voice channels. Ofcourse you can have the same amount of text channels to the voice ones, but it does not switch on its own. The feature has been requested by other people on the Discord website though.
Another con: to chat you still need e-mail confirmation. I would rather restrict voice chatting instead of texting for people without accout. If there is anyone new its more likely he would like to use chat instead of talking.
Will this 'test' phase be ever concluded? With almost even scores moving something so impractical (oh hey, but its fancy!... (...)) will scare more people off than bring new ones. The feeling that discord is more lively and full is just an illusion: voice channels are full in same level as in ts, the only differenceis 'social media' feeling accounts (you can see members in the sidebar, send them a message) and chats provide. But with limitations coming from both (no chats for voice channels, needs for frigging accounts) there are no benefits. At least for me.
Since discord was introduced I feel less and less motivated to access any server related voice chatting app.

Alright, at first i was contra Discord, but after using it quite regulary now I think thats its alot better then Teamspeaks and serves exactly what we need. I think the first main difference is, that Discord isnt just a "skype for gamers" its more of a community hub, due to it having a bigger focus on text channels aswell. That and the Serverchat Function make it extremely usefull to Discuss stuff in chat with others. In terms of voice chat i see no big difference to Teamspeak, the sound quality is equaly good, and it has most options teamspeak has aswell.
The only con i see right now is that there is no Text channel for each voice channel. But that can be worked around by adding a seperate "Voice Chat" Text Channel.
The Email confirmation thing shouldnt be a problem aswell, since its so little work that i shouldnt stop anyone from actually joining (also forums do have it aswell right?)

But it kind of takes over/overlaps the function of our forums. Also: it has one very annoying (maybe client side?(my cousin has the same)) bug for the desktop app: sometimes your voice stays connected even if you closed discord, and then you can't open discord to disconnect your voice, but you have to login on your phone to reconnect. This is a very bad bug which imo is a 'danger' for your privacy.

People barely post on this forum for community based matters anyway so saying it replaces them doesn't seem correct. Also no one else seems to be suffering from the bug
although annoying its not a bug and yet another con for discord although everyone should use push to talk to 'defend' their privacy.

I do use that but it seems broken for me
I think this is similar to how skype works where when you press the x to close the program it doesnt fully close. In bottom right the is a ^ symbol to show hidden icons. discord will still show in there once started up. If you right click on it, you can quit discord there. which i believe shuts it fully (has for me at least)
Yeah, Discord wil even when closed, continue running on the background (same as skype). the way to fully exit is throu the top right discord icon.

I'm sorry but nothing of what you guys said worked, but I found out something very very scary! For me there is a discord logo, hiding in the minecraft launcher!!!

And I swear I closed Discord totally, I think Discord is just CIA, that might explain why it's free
Do you have the in-game overlay enabled? If so that's whats causing the logo to show up in your client. If you untick the overlay option in your discord settings the logo should go away.I'm sorry but nothing of what you guys said worked, but I found out something very very scary! For me there is a discord logo, hiding in the minecraft launcher!!!
Unfortunately there seems to be no way to hide the logo while using the in-game overlay (which is pretty annoying since it is completely opaque and takes up a part of the screen) but I'm hoping the discord team will fix it eventually since there seems to be a lot of people who are bugged by it. The in-game overlay lets you see who's talking without having to guess or tab out of the game so its a pretty useful feature otherwise.
