Hello, and welcome to the community if you're new!
This thread is going to be all about the Discord server for VocaVerse Network, so if you haven't joined yet and are just finding this forum on its own, feel free to join it via the Discord tab at the top of the forum.

If you've done that now or are coming here from there, the next thing you should know is that
all of the rules linked in this text apply to the Discord as well unless stated otherwise here.
Also keep in mind that unlike the forums, VVN staff reserve the right to ban members preemptively if said user is known to have committed bannable actions in other chat groups/forums, or if it's evident that users are likely planning to break rules or take part in a raid.
Action may also be taken if other users complain about receiving unwanted private messages from you.

When you first join the Discord, you'll be in a channel called "#start-here".
You may not be able to post or see all the channels right away. If that is the case,
please message one of the mods or admins and we'll adjust your settings to let you in.
Welcome to our Discord Server!
Please note: Discord's official guidelines still apply of course as well.

Discord Channel Rules & Tips

Main rules:

1. Please avoid spamming. This includes using mentions (@ name/role) a high amount of times, sending messages a significant amount of times within a minute, and advertising heavily without permission or in the appropriate channel.

2. Let's be respectful! Please avoid arguing with others, or making an attempt to make others distress. It's okay to have disagreements, but please do so in a respectful manner. Do not attempt to force your opinion on someone! If necessary, you can carry your discussion through DM.

3. Please keep your posts relevant! If you're ever unsure of what a channel is for, or where to set your message, you can always ask one of our Mods or Admins, or check out the pins! You're welcome to read through this thread, hopefully you'll find exactly what you need then!

4. Use common sense, and have fun sharing your love and passion for Vocaloids and voice synthesizers with other fans and creators!

You are encouraged to visit the #bot-room to receive a role! This will help users know what you like to do in the community!

VVN Support
Need help with the VocaVerse forums? Any questions, comments, or concerns?
Please visit this channel and the staff will do our best to assist you!

You may also post any concerns about the Discord server in this channel as well.
Please wait for a response, as some members of our staff are not always available. If you do not receive a response within the next 24 hours, please inform us again of your concern.
We hope to do our best on the forums and on Discord, so please do not hesitate to let us know if you have any concerns :miku_move:
Please be patient and understanding.


VVN Announcements
This is the channel for making important announcements related to VVN: whether is be the Discord server or the Forums.
If you notice something's been changing lately, you can check this channel and see what the changes are.
This channel is dedicated to keep our users updated and informed on changes taking place!

General Chat
You're allowed to post just about anything here, even if it's already been posted elsewhere - as long as you aren't interrupting
a conversation already taking place or spamming.
If you have an image or link to share, please keep it to one at a time. If a conversation is going on already, look through the other
channels first and see if it's something you can post there instead if it doesn't add to that conversation.
You are discouraged from discussing subjects related to: "the chat is dead", topics fitting for #vvn-support, links without context, and hateful or disrespectful discussion about someone whether this person is in the server or not.
As with the common rules, please avoid NSFW, sexual, political, anti-religious, or sensitive topics and imagery.
Self-advertising embeds are discouraged from being in the #general-chat channel. You are encouraged, instead, to use the #promotion-channel found in the Off Topic category. You can discuss your services and what you offer, or about your work.
For sharing artwork, you are encouraged instead to use #your-art, also to avoid your work being lost! If it is not Vocaloid-related, please use #other-original-art, or if it's a drawing you did not create, please use #fanart.

Read the pinned message for more information!


Vocal Synth Chat
This channel is focused on topics related to Vocaloid, UTAU, CeVIO, Synth V, and all kinds of voice synthesizers around the world! It's the perfect place to talk about a more specific subject rather than in #general_chat

The same rules for #general_chat, our main chat channel, apply to this channel as well. Please stay respectful and avoid sensitive or inappropriate materials!
If a topic is already taking place (such as a certain subject continues without an over 5 minute pause), you can look through other channels and see if your topic is more fitting there! You can try having a discussion in #general_chat. Or, be patient for a chance to speak your subject.
If you are looking for assistance with certain software, please be patient! You may use the more dedicated channel to receiving help: #technical-help. Everyone has a variety of schedules, but we hope you get your response soon. You are also welcome to use the Forums as well to create a thread and look for help!

Technical Help
This channel is dedicated to helping users receive technical help or advice - whether it be related to using the Vocaloid software, DAW, and more!
Remember, this channel is for receiving help, please user the other channels such as #general_chat to carry a more casual conversation

If a topic is already taking place (such as a certain subject continues without an over 5 minute pause), it may be best to either try another channel or be patient. Otherwise, you may miss your chance to receive assistance, or disrupt a current helpful session.
If you are looking for assistance with certain software, please be patient! Everyone has a variety of schedules, but we hope you get your response soon. Like the Vocaloid Chat channel, you are also welcome and encouraged to use the Forums!
