Gaming communities

A lobby, a games forum, LFG and team voice, set up before the first raid.

A gaming community is a start area in front of a captcha gate, news, a community area, a games forum with a tag per game, an LFG channel, voice with team rooms and a join-to-talk lobby, a support area with a ticket panel and a bug forum, staff and logs. The Gaming community blueprint builds exactly that.

Then the parts that keep it alive: giveaways by reaction, XP for messages and voice with roles at levels, reaction roles for the games people play and the pings they want, and, for communities that run their own servers, live panels for CS2, Rust, ARK and other Source games with a join button that hands out the connect line.

Gaming community: 27 channels · 10 roles · 6 Discord AutoMod rules · 10 house messages

What the blueprint builds

Read from the blueprint file: every category with its channels, exactly as Apply creates them. You rename what you like afterwards.

Questions people ask

Does it work for one game or many?

Both. The games forum has a tag per game and the role pickers list the games your community plays; add more from the dashboard.

We already have a server. Do we start over?

No. The setup recognises your channels and proposes to use them as the blueprint’s; you decide line by line, and nothing is deleted without your choice.

It takes one afternoon. The captcha, the roles and the welcome are waiting for them.
