These backers feel a bit needy so far today... hope this isn't another fav that loses 8-)
Lucky to get that one over the line, hit 9.0 IR.

I wish this thread had a Slack room instead of the forum. The info is useless after the event anyway.

Live chat would be better to bounce ideas around

Dont see why it cannot be trialled for 7 days and assessed afterwards. Im sure there are implications that I am unaware of but we could administer it ourselves and it would enhance the experience - only for the 'Todays Racing' thread though.

Mentioned this before…

I believe a Discord channel would work perfectly.

They can be monitored and administered just like a forum…

I am part of a FX community on Discord and I have learnt more there over the last 3 years or so..

Dont know, I no longer watch the Horse Racing. Never heard of discord but I'd be willing to give it a go.

SLACK is by far an easier set up. Easy to use and administer.

You have your own SLACK room so why not just invite people from the forum to it?

If I remember correctly, admin didnt want me to be taking people out of the forum because it might look like a third party pushing an outside agenda or some sort of promotional aspect, which I totally understood and agreed with.

The SLACK room is still there. I'd need BA's permission to promote it on here though. I thought it would be maxed out at around 10-15 people. It would also be better if BA Support done the Admin (very little work after set up) as then they are in full conrol of the site.
