Regarding our KF discord, I have three suggestions:
1. Use a bot to require you to link your KF account to your Discord account. Right now, anyone can join the Discord and proceed to shit the place up. Because Discord won't let server owners see their user's IP addresses, there's no way without authentication to know who is who. Take this user named Meeki, who joined with two other random newbies and shot their sperg load everywhere for hundreds of messages.
Sperg-outs like these are a very common occurrence. These situations should either be stopped or linked to someone's KF account when they do happen for cow-watching material for threads. By the way, a certain Eggplant believes Meeki's this cow https://kiwifarms.net/threads/angie-anqi-angi-dong-skagra.38426/ , but my eyes glaze over when I try to read her mooing.
2. Replace the god-awful, laggy chat at the bottom of the main page with an embedded KF discord widget. Naturally, this ties back to the authentication in #1.
3. Management. More organized channels and roles (e.g., a supporter role for those who donated to KF) would go a long way to making the discord a better place.
The natural question of all this but especially #3 is whether you, staff, give a shit about the Discord or not. I sense that you don't - at least insofar as you won't bother to care about it outside of movie night. If that's the case, I hope you consider that a) the Discord seems to be prime grazing grounds for lolcows to come and b) I or another user experienced with Discord would be happy to help you implement some of these changes.
