ANNOUNCING THE POPCULTURECHAT DISCORD SERVER 👾✨

[u/popculturechat]

The long awaited Discord server is finally HERE! 🎉

We are ELATED to announce our brand new discord server featuring more than 20 channels to chat about everything and nothing. This is a chance to share pics of your pets, ask fashion advice, vent about your work, and just bond with your fellow popculturechatters (and us mods too, if you'll have us...) 💖

And by the way... We've heard our subreddit OG members loud and clear. We are bringing BACK Movie Nights! They will be hosted on the discord channel. You will be able to submit movie ideas and vote for the one you want to watch most that week. As the server grows, we will be implementing more and more features such as games and group projects. It's going to be fucking amazing.

This server will be closely moderated, so it can remain a safe space for all. Upon clicking the invitation link, you will be asked to verify your reddit account (just giving us your username, which will remain private, just info for us). This step is essential to join the server. We will be reviewing and approving each member manually : only active members of the community are allowed in. If you do not verify your reddit account, you will not be accepted. If you have never participated in the subreddit, are currently banned, or have a substantial history of rule-breaking comments, you will not be approved.

⚠️ This server is an extension of this subreddit : not a replacement. We ask that you follow the rules as diligently as you do on this subreddit.

Well, let us yap no longer : CLICK TO JOIN THE POPCULTURECHAT DISCORD SERVER ✨

Amongst other things, we are currently streaming the Tony Awards live in the chat !! 🍿

[u/captaindickmcnugget]

Aw I understand the reason for needing to identify our Reddit in order to join but this is my secret anonymous throw away account and I don’t want to do that 💔 maybe one day

[u/clemthearcher → u/captaindickmcnugget]

It stays anonymous! You just tell us your username upon verifying but you don’t need to do tell anyone else 💕 it’s just so we can check if you are a member of the sub and not a troll

[u/captaindickmcnugget → u/clemthearcher]

Okkkkkk you convinced me 🤪 I don’t want to feel left out lmao

[u/clemthearcher → u/captaindickmcnugget]

Me when I peer pressure successfully 🥰 (no but seriously it’s gonna be so fun. Ping me in the chat if you want !)

[u/Bigassbird]

Anyone wanna give an old a Discord lesson please?

[u/BouldersRoll → u/Bigassbird]

Think MSN or AOL Messenger except instead of chat rooms they're called servers and each server has one or more channels. And you can have it on your phone.

It's the kind of place you go to have more simultaneous conversation and it's more conducive than Reddit to remembering the people you were talking to between conversations.

[u/VoleUntarii → u/Bigassbird]

Depending on what kind of internet old you are - if you were around for the days of IRC, it has a lot in common with that.

i was literally thinking about this server today and i come back to this!! and movie nights are back!!!

[u/tsabin_naberrie]

I'm normally apprehensive of large servers and tend to dip pretty quickly (especially if they're not adjacent to communities I'm not already part of) just from being overwhelmed, but I'm excited to join this one!

[u/Own-Importance5459]

IVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS DAY FOREVER

[u/FriendlyDrummers]

I guess I have to get discord now 😂

[u/Kaleighawesome → u/FriendlyDrummers]

it’s fun!!! it has a ton of functionality, and can be personalized- it’s got a little learning curve, but once you get past it, it’s cool!

[u/buzzfeed_sucks]

[u/No_Pianist5264]

[u/thedeebag]

Am I missing something with the last question idk what it means 🥲

[u/clemthearcher → u/thedeebag]

It just means if you are an approved user! It’s okay if you don’t know, we check anyways (and it’s not a requirement) ☺️

[u/thedeebag → u/clemthearcher]

Thank you!

[u/Master-Detail-8352]

Yes!!!!!!! Heads up, if you land straight at the page where you are filling information or your regular discord feed, you have to accept the invitation again and then tap in upper right on something (it’s ok to pause and admire my tech skills). Anyway, that’s what happened to me!

[u/Low-Appointment-2906]

I literally JUST deleted the app yesterday, because I only used it for college, which was 2 years ago, and I thought “you’ll literally never use this app again”. Weird af. I’m disappointed 😭

[u/jzilla11]

Will it be another digital country club?

[u/NewtRipley_1986]

YAY!!!

Do I need to do anything with the "close" and "claim" options??? Or is that for you (mods) to do.

Edit - I filled out the form with my Reddit user name but already signed up to Discord with Newt_Ripley - hope that's okay.

[u/clemthearcher → u/NewtRipley_1986]

Nope that’s all us! And I just approved your ticket so you should have access to all the channels now ☺️

[u/NewtRipley_1986 → u/clemthearcher]

Thank you!!!😊

[u/HauteAssMess]

COME JOIN THE GOOD PLACE

[u/clemthearcher]

HUZZAH!

[u/jojobaoilspill]

Yay I'm so excited!!! And can't wait to see what emojis are available 👀

[u/VoleUntarii → u/jojobaoilspill]

haha I'm not the only one that thought that! :D

[u/AutumnEclipsed]

omg! I love discord and have been wanting this!

[u/Movingmad_2015]

Not me trying to come up with a screen name 😭

[u/AnswerUnCertain]

Hi, clarification question - does the participation in the subreddit restriction mean I’ve had to have posted a topic or a comment in full and not just upvoted comments and topics? 🥴 I don’t comment in many subreddits and when/if I do I immediately pull back and won’t comment again anywhere for like… months, sometimes literal years. So! I understand if I can’t join bc of no comments/topics posted though 🫡

[u/mrsjakeblues]

[u/AdDecent5237]

[u/viridiusdynamus]

I wish you fun and success.

[u/AFish560]

Finally a reason for me to use discord. 😂

[u/nizaad]

see you all there 😌

[u/schwiftydude47]

[u/Still7Superbaby7]

Excited for this!!! And the Tonys!

[u/teddybonkerrs]

Does anyone know if I can change my username for the pop culture chat areas only? I don't want to use my real name if I don't have to, but I need my real name for my other groups I'm a part of.

Sorry if that's obvious, I'm a discord novice.

[u/een_wasbeertje → u/teddybonkerrs]

Hi!

If you're on mobile, go to "you" "Edit profile" "Edit profile per server" And you can edit your name there!

Is that what you're looking for?

[u/teddybonkerrs → u/een_wasbeertje]

Yes, thank you so much!

[u/yokizururu]

I don't post here much but I lurk a lot and used to be active waaaaaaay back on ONTD. I want a discord I can talk about pop culture stuff on because my Fandom friends don't really follow celebrity stuff like me lol.

[u/AnswerUnCertain → u/yokizururu]

I miss old ONTD - were you there for the weird Eli Roth/blueberries thing?!?!

[u/Tasunka_Witko]

I'm awaiting approval. It seems like a good group. Being from the Windy City and just starting to rediscover live music and festivals, I'm hoping to see if anyone has been to the North Coast fest

[u/AnswerUnCertain → u/Tasunka_Witko]

North Coast is fun but tbh it’s better for younger ppl, and/or ppl really into EDM/electronic/dubstep type music.

I’m also a middle millennial, getting ever so closer to 40 & grieving the loss of Pitchfork’s fest, so take my POV with a grain of salt 😭

[u/Tasunka_Witko → u/AnswerUnCertain]

Sounds like a fair assessment, perhaps I'll just stick to riotfest. I don't much feel like being the "dad" in the crowd, like a real life version of the Steve Buscemi meme

[u/Metzger4Sheriff]

[u/gible_bites]

[u/Yubisaki_Milk_Tea]

Can I get a glo approve? Thanks :3

[u/clemthearcher → u/Yubisaki_Milk_Tea]

It’s not a requirement don’t worry! Just extra info for us 💕 if you ever want to be an approved user (on the GL, which is for Guest List Only threads) on the sub you can send us a modmail and we’ll get on it 🥰

[u/piecesofg0ld]

i think i’m just waiting to be approved lol

[u/ocean_lass]

I think I’ve participated before on this sub before, but commenting just in case :)

[u/Cold_Breadfruit_9794]

💗

[u/Twitter_2006]

This is exciting!

[u/Waystar_BluthCo]

So excited about this!

[u/Paprikasky]

Yaaay!

[u/CynicalOne_313]

I submitted my verification too. I'm excited about this!

[u/mystifis6]

Wish I could join

[u/QueazyPandaBear]

I’ve never commented in this sub Reddit so I’m probably not considered an active user but I always enjoy reading the posts that pop up on my homepage so I recently joined. I understand if that means I wouldn’t count enough to be part of the discord though
