In Creating a Rules Channel & Setting Rules for Discord, you’ll find an example template for rules as well as how to create a rules channel that @everybody in your server can’t send messages in.
Newcomers definitely appreciate a server map so they know what channels to check out first or if they have a specific issue.
Although your bot welcomes people, you might have other people that welcome others when they join the server! This is also a good place for introductions.
You don’t want to be discussing the intricacies of bagel making and have other people command “. play the safety dance” and then the bot responding to that command. Keep all those “. play” or other commands in a separate channel so your discussions aren’t interrupted.
File sizes are limited in Discord, so if the clip or video is too long, you can upload it somewhere and then share it in this channel.
If you’re playing something like World of Warcraft, you can have multiple announcement channels, for each game, like #retail-announcements, #wotlk-announcements, and #classic-annoucements.
You can add bots to your server that offer memes, like Tofu, Dank Memer, and Redbot.
This is great for games, like Guild Wars 2, that participate in fundraisers to raise money for charities! You can post updates and share stories to get that charity more interest!
Learn how to add reaction roles with bots like Carl.
If you’re commonly asked how to get the Skyscale in Guild Wars 2, you can post the wiki to that achievement in a pinned post instead of having to repeat yourself over and over again!
For the techies, you can have a “My Setups” or “Setup Recommendations” channel so everyone can share the computers, graphics cards, keyboards, and mice that they use.
For the people without pets, you can include a “Leafy Lovers Channel” instead so people can post their plants, which is a popular sidebar.
Ask your members what they are interested in and create a channel for that.
