PATREON EXCLUSIVE EPISODE 10 - The End of Our Discord

200$ upfront for a whole year access to the discord sounds fair

Hello

Danny Darbyshire

I joined the discord I think automatically when I joined the Patreon, got spammed by furries waving at my join notification, opened up general, and just saw people being really weird so I left. Maybe I’m just old but I don’t see why I’d want to talk to these people anyway when they just spam memes. I think $5 for the exclusive episodes and early access is good and you should put the discord behind $10. Also, don’t highlight that your “worse” content is the Patreon stuff. People like to think they’re getting something of equal quality/effort, for the money. I think the podcast is excellent and can see you put a lot of time and effort in to it and moderating the discord, just the latter isn’t for me. Then again, I’m not paying to get value for my $5, but just because I want to support the continued existence of the show.

I'm listening to what the discord is like and I genuinely want to know WHAT TYPA FUCKIN WEIRD FANS DO YOU GUYS ATTRACT

Dr. H

BTW me personally I've been around since I was dumb kid listening to that shifty mom's basement so I like colossal and pyro from his own stuff with dolan being likeable but the difference with nerd on the podcast is you just get so tired of his monotone boring voice sometimes he's unfunny. I come back after work tired and i genuinely get happy when I hear bs between pyro,dolan and colossal. P.s Idc about the discord it sounds fuked I jus like the no filtered shi between the 3 brits

Dr. H

Can you please mute nerd

P0ltergiest

Actually yeah. I'm kind of gullible.

Tom Gallagher

did you do it

Joshua Oster

my first three interactions was somebody calling me a faggot and the next person asking me if I heard of squid game and the third person confessing their love to me. Wouldn't have had it any other way. :)

P0ltergiest

Dude, literally my first interactions with the TBH discord someone told me to kill myself. I thought it was funny and on brand, but still. Like first 3 interactions

Jaemisu

I think the issues that plague the TBH discord are the same issues that come with just about any discord, but as size grows they get worse. As someone who's been watching Pyro since I was like 10 back in 2015, when I say I think the Pyro discord is shit, it's not because I don't like Pyro or his content, but because of the nature of large discord servers. Discord was built for small communities (a few thousand or less) that have maybe a few hundred users on at any one time. With larger servers comes more brainlets and bigots which causes more stringent moderation being a necessity, especially when it's a youtuber who has a reputation to maintain. The issue is with heavy moderation it feels less like a community and more like Twitter 2.0 (with worse UI). It's gotten to the point where I'm in two (2) discord servers, one with IRL friends for gaming, and the TBH discord, because I like the creators and it's small enough to get a word in if you're actually interested in a conversation. I think a lot of the difference in quality chatters between the TBH and Pyro discord comes from TBH being like a thousand or so, and Pyro's being 30,000.

I started listening to the podcast because of Pyro but quickly became a fan of you all and the dynamic between you. I would love to engage on the discord as well but avoided it just because of what I’ve heard about it. Purge is needed.

Okay moe lester

Guy Mendes

Yeah, I pretty much joined only to get the exclusive episodes besides the already public ones. Only use the discord to tell Pyro that tonight is the night when he randomly @everyone.

Siméon Picard

Fair

Igggy

its more about intent than the actual things done i think. if people are harrassing people they know it can be a joke, but when its done to strangers it can be taken any way, and it can be hurtful without context

Jordan Gibbs

yay

kevin43

I joined the discord and people asked me to talk to them and I just ignored everyone, I’m just here to listen to yall make fun of pyro.

senor wok

I kneel, but was it for the best?

TBH

fixed

senor wok

Lol, im in the discord but I can’t even post or join any vc for some reason, Probably a blessing in disguise

LilHal

i use the discord to tell pyrocynical to kill himself when he pings

Mcdonald

it’s weird how despite all the active members from TBH, the actual topics from the podcast are rarely ever discussed in the discord lmao

TBH

you need to link your discord to patreon

Josh Birdmyn

I have never been in discord I think I need a link???

On the topic of genuine Pyro fans y'all mentioned halfway in this episode, I would say that's me. I've been following him since, god, 2014 I think. But I NEVER post in the Discord because on day one of me being a Patron #general bullied me for my pfp and sent mildly threatening GIFs which scared me off. It wasn't a community, it truly was the maggot pit. Absolute shithole, I wouldn't touch that server with a twenty foot pole. I heard the cancer is contagious.

H U M O R

Based ep, I wuv getting banned by unlce ben~♡♡

Misty

I’m here for the podcast first and didn’t even care about the discord. I joined as a curiosity and muted everything but the “podcast” channel. So it’s just a notification for me when the episodes go live 👍

Siméon Picard

I think its a bit hypocritical to bash people mimicking your online personnality on YOUR discord if you’re not happy with your fan base change your content! For exemple clown spent the whole episode gay bashin pyro. Im all for the gay bashing but don’t be surprised when yoyr community is gay bashing. Additionally, the N-word I dropped was during the Christmas no ban break so please give context when your calling out people for saying the N-word some of us have moral

AE0N

I want to preface this by saying im not a pyro hater, been watching his content since the leafy days. But It's kind of unfortunate the limbo you lot are stuck in, you could boot pyro off the show and I think the show would be better better content without him, my favourite episodes are the ones where he's too lazy to show up. Since when he's here he never takes anything serious. Ie: spamming the discord golf clap sfx during ad reads and topics. Though removing him would sacrifice a large portion of your revenue, as most of the listeners are "slop fans" as is obvious in the discord where almost nobody shows any sign of maturity. Anyways lads, keep it up

Spider-Man

Nah you’ll be fine. There are nice people in the discord as unbelievable as that sounds

Gryzbowski

Why was I kicked from the server Pyro

skdl

loving the slurs, as a faggot myself i support it, but we need consistency.

NahNahBro

As a fellow faggot I just ask for consistency, sometimes it’s one podcast exclusive episode for an entire month or if we’re lucky 2.

Oliver hartfree

See, I pay for the Patreon. I don’t bother with the discord because I just know it’s bad… and this just confirms it. But I just like the early/Patreon exclusive episodes. I’m just happy to be here 😊 … also ps. This is the only Patreon I pay for 😅

TBH

you are no longer racist

Autistic Tyson

I just gave even more money.

Unfortunately, Clown's solution of using AI instead of Reddit is that Reddit posts are in the training data, which is why ChatGPT is such a fucking dweeb

Nessy

Man they dont do shit to "cultivate" the community, they let us fester and every now and then come in and abuse their power (giggler does deserve the maggot pit)

Staci

I never tried discord so I created an account since it was part of the $5 & I've never said a word. Hearing this episode makes me feel better that I instantly felt like an outcast.

Interesting episode, I’m not in the discord (yet) but this love/hate relationship you’ve got with the discord is really interesting. It really is a double edge’d sword because I love hearing about the various creatures that inhabit the maggot pit but I’m sure it must be frustrating to actively try to cultivate a community while being sabotaged at the same time. This might sound like a shill but there’s this book “The Art of Community: Seven Principles for Belonging” by Charles Volg that might be interesting read for Nerd; he seems genuinely interested in cultivating something resembling a community in the discord. As for the quality of the episodes I think there’s no need for concern, this podcast is one of my favorites at least when all four members are present and they actually have topics. Just record more episodes, please I’m dying to hear you guys talk about Palword and the twitter meltdown.

jesus montes

*joins discord* "ARE YOU A PEDOPHILE?" bro wtf 🤣

Dylan Collins

Have to say good episode talked about a topic that needed attention I joined the discord as in fans of you all and thought it was a good way for interaction with you guys/fans but I used it for about a day and haven’t looked at it since as it is just the definition of brain rot of the modern world. I have a topic discussion that I’d like to hear nerds opinion on about the hate speech bill coming in to effect in Ireland

Tom Gallagher

literally me

Yuya

Didn’t expect for my historic discord entrance to be mentioned 😭

Odhrán Fee

Finally. I get my slurs back

Tristone

Tbh, I'm quite glad I'm not terminally online to see all that stuff in the discord. I just want to see Nerd and Colossal cook something, while Pyro should never be allowed near a stove for the rest of his life.

Bunny

Heads up there's a data driven approach to helping with the discord moderation issues - toolsets, monitoring, ways to make it a little easier to do what you're already doing. I'm not a salesman so I won't mention any names, but know it exists and it's worth looking into. @Nerd reached out via Twitter DM - let's talk about it. - A Patreon Subscriber that Isn't Using the Discord

Nidale Nieve

Finally my well deserved slur

TBH

link your patreon account to discord, if that doesn't work unlink and relink it
