• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

    You can dismiss this notice by clicking the "x" box

Help Please! Entering chat room during pop-up submissions

Apologies in advance if this is explained somewhere in the Colony, but I was following Agent Pete's Pop Up Submissions on Facebook on Sunday and saw reference to comments in the chat room - where is this and how do I access this?

I wouldn't worry yourself too much about Discord, to be honest. For the Pop-Ups, most chat seems to take place on the Facebook page now, and that is obviously easier to find.
Come the Sunday Meetings - which are sporadic at best - then Discord is the focus, but there is time to fret over that later.
 
Thanks, Carol. I did see this, but didn't realise it was for the Pop-Up Submissions too (although probably would had my brain actually been switched on...)

You're welcome! Peter made a remark during the Pop-Up Submissions this past week that it was easier for him to read the comments in Discord during the event than to try to read them on Facebook. I didn't realize we were using both either until I tuned into the event. :)

Yeah, Sunday was my first Pop-Up and I found it an unusual set up to have the chat separate to the video... or rather, I was watching the video via Facebook and had Discord running the forum. If there's a way to have everything in Discord, I couldn't see it...but would be grateful to know.

No, Discord is just Discord. Its the main 'hub' for chat amongst Litopians, but the videos remain firmly on FB.
