There is one. But it's very inactive. I only just realized it after having made a fully fledged channel and gotten a bunch of people there. So i guess that sucks. But yeah, this one is pretty active right now.
Well. For the Discord you dont have to manually connect all the time. You basically just have to open Discord, which can be set to startup with the computer if you wanted it to.
Back when teams were a thing; team genesis created a skype group chat; and there have been quite a few people who came and went; some actually members of team genesis, and other just floaters. It is quite a bit more active than the IRC chat. I feel if the entire community was in such a group though; responses would be faster. I will check out this application this weekend.
Yeah, I used to be in the team chat back then. I was kicked for inactivity because I was in the military for some time, which meant I had little to no time on the computer. It would be pretty great to have something like that back again in a more "enhanced" form though, which is why I went ahead and made a discord server
You guys are more than welcome to do this, however, it won't be official. Curse has it's own chat client/mod client called the Curse App -> curse.com
I'm working on getting something official together to co-exist with the IRC currently that will make it easier for you guys to reach us personally. Just wanted to give a heads up on this before anyone got to settled in.
It was worth a shot though! :D I'll still be sure to keep going with this chat though and try to gather members for it if that's not too uncool :)
Discord is an application much like skype. but simplified. You can chat with friends or join servers with many people in it. You will find that it is much easier to use. It's aimed a lot more towards gamers than skype, which is aimed towards normies :p
I wouldnt say it should replace genesis chat, as genesis chat is meant as a sc2 team chat. But it would be cool if people from there joined here, as, if you ask me, discord feels more accessible. You should come check it out :)
So I decided to make an unofficial discord with the hopes of bringing everyone a bit more together. I feel like having a place to stay connected at all times will help grow the community a lot more. I will try to stay active on there as much as my skills allow it. And I hope people will use it as well to talk about sc2 mapping etc! Hope to see you soon!
That link above will connect you to the Server. if you dont own Discord, i highly suggest getting it!
If you have any suggestions, I will happily hear them. You can either text them to me somewhere (discord or sc2mapster) or leave them as replies to this threat!

We're now 22 users away from 300! Let's go!
if you have the app it will stay in the chat channel until you manually leave. I dont think it does that on the web page :)
Hmmm. I dont know what would cause this. Do you not have the app?
Hmm. That sounds odd. I updated the main post with a new link though

Thanks for pointing it out :)

Here's something to explain it a bit better

Anyways, I think you should give it a chance if you loved, or even liked genesis and IRC chat.
