Motion to Create Skype Forum, Begin Official Work on TeamSpeak Server

[St Oz]

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) just calling to check on you boy.

I might stop in teamspeak once in awhile, but I'd probably never do scheduled Skype groups. I only ever did Skype if we had a superpowers 2 night. I'm curious who else utilizes the Skype group as well

I'm ok with a SP2 night

I can't speak for everyone, but while I personally do not object to there being a Skype group, I wouldn't use it. I don't know if that position is common or an outlier.

^ I feel the same way.

I don't want 3, 4 or 5 different "meeting places" for Taijitu unless we can take something or value from there, like events...collective gaming...storytelling...

^ Also agreed. When the forums, IRC, and NS all exist already, I'm not likely to ever use Skype (especially when most people will already be online in one of the existing meeting places). Voice chat might be redundant for those at home, and unusable for those at work or school who can't be making noise.

That's not to say I oppose it if others actually want it. Out of curiosity, has anyone been asking for a Skype channel apart from our Citizen-Liaison?

^This is pretty much my own opinion.

I'm with Dyr on this - there isn't any need for the Ecclesia's approval unless the forum is intended to be made 'official' in some specific legal sense (which it should not be).

My suggestion is to just make a thread in general discussion, organize and advertise it. All those things are well within the scope of the Liaison's power (or of any citizen, for that matter).

1) Many of us have been talking semi-regularly on skype for months. In fact I believe during my last term I actually created a thread solely for the exchanging of skype and steam info. To build a community focus rather than a GP based focus. It had mixed results, but the region is still here.

2) As stated by many others, we do not need another region sponsoring initiatives which can be easily handled internally.

I do not see the need for this legislation.

Oz's Twitch Garden Party event was very participated and wasn't on Skype.
