post here to fix/gain your FORUM TITLES: name(rank)[TITLE]

name (rank) [title]? I am confused. Steemit is confusing in general and slow. Why not just use Discord?
Anyway I'm still Darches.

@darches (rank 25) Title: [Darches]
@name - may or may not be the correct ID for crowns, so we also have:
[ title ] - an easy to select text in a box that is the correct ID for crowns.
( rank ) - is based on the number of upvotes you receive and their power.

Rank vaguely correlates to what amount of 'Steem Power' you gain, which then determines what strength your votes will have in the future. These '$' numbers everywhere are the steem blockchain payouts determined entirely by votes. My votes just happen to be worth more, for now.

Here is the community Discord incase you missed it: http://discord.gg/4JTyKcv
but chat could never replace a forum, so here we are.

What does a traditional forum offer that Discord doesn't? And who are you? Shouldn't @thegrandestine be the admin?

forum/chat are different in the way they are referenced across long periods of time. A forum thread will show in search results for someone asking similar questions, or searching similar topics, but in chat this is not the case. Additionally, a forum has capacity to stabilize very large and detailed conversations about a single topic, where chat is usually done in the form of small 1-line sentences, and a much more casual dynamic even for serious topics. These things serve two entirely different purposes, so both are available. It would be strange to find someone attempting to use a forum as a chat room, and vice versa.

... I always used them the same. Meh.
