Revision as of 08:10, 30 March 2021

Quick Start Guide

  1. If you do not have a discord account go to Discord.com and signup for an account
  2. You will need to get the join link from your Exec and/or Supervisor
  3. Go to the "#staff-new-to-server" channel and post your name (as it is shown on the Concom Org Chart) and your role/title(s)

Recommend also checking our out the #start-here-discord-tips-and-tricks channel

Adding a Server

  • Once you have the invite link to the Norwescon 43 Server, you can click the link and go through the prompts as the app launches. OR, you can do the following.
    1. Open Discord and log into your account
    2. Click the plus icon in the left sidebar of the app. It is green and towards the bottom. (Exact location dependent on how many servers you have joined.)
    3. Select "Join a Server"
    4. Paste in the invite link and hit "join"

Advanced Setup Recommendations

Apps

It is highly recommended to download and use the app version of discord both on your computer and smart device(s). These platforms are much more stable then the web version of the platform. https://discord.com/download

Voice Channels

The best way to think of the voice channels are the same as the radios we use at the hotel, but on steroids. This is where you can hear someone talk to you (and get your attention). Plus, you can also share your screen and/or video while you talk.
why is this so important you ask, as we can do this in Airmeet? Because for example, if you are having issue with something in Airmeet you can stay in your session AND share your screen with the Help Desk person (or your team's leadership) without leaving the session/table/etc.

Notifications

Notifications settings are one of the powerful functions of Discord and used right can change the experience from an annoying one to a very useful and gratifying experience. Notifications are set at two levels, you can set them at the server level and the system uses this as a default for other channels. Unless you set the second level which is individual level, you can override the server level notifications setting for a given channel.
NOTE: If you do not customize your notifications settings the amount of chatter on the server will likely overwhelm you.

Recommendations

  • Set the server level notification settings to '@mention' by clicking on the 'ᐯ' in the top bar next to the server name then click on 'Notification Settings'
Discord Server Menu
  • Then for the channels listed below (if you are on that team/have that role) I would recommend setting them to 'All Messages'
Channel Setting Menu

Channels recommended for 'All Messages'
For all staff

  • #staff-announcements

For Execs & Core Team

  • #leadership
  • Your teams chat channel(s)

For On-Duty Tier 1 Help Desk Staff

  • #webpage-help
  • #staff-help
  • #helpdesk

For Discord Admins

  • #leadership
  • #staff-new-to-server

There are 3 different settings for notifications

Function Description
Use Server Default Use whatever the Server level setting you have set
All Messages Every message you will get a notification for
Only @mentions Only messages that have a mention of you and/or a role that you have been assigned to you will get notifications for
Nothing You will not get any 'notifications' for this sever/channel

How to get help on the discord server

One of the two main advantages to having access to the Staff Discord is having access to priority support from our help desk team.

I am a host

I have a technical question about Airmeet

Go the the chatroom #staff-help and use '@airmeet' followed by your question

I have a non-technical question

Go to the chatroom #stage-managment and use '@sm-help' followed by your question

I am not a host

I have a technical question about Airmeet

Go the the chatroom #staff-help and use '@helpdesk' followed by your question

I have a non-technical question

Go to the chatroom for your team and ask your question
If you do not have a chatroom for your team, you can ask in the #staff chatroom
