In fact, it actually even helps identify potential trolls who could mess with the wiki in the future before they have the chance to do more damage. And besides all that, we've seen how DBW Discord servers have gone in the past & it wasn't good. Whos to say it won't go down like that again. Furthermore, A Discord server could be joined by a troll just as easily as the wiki chat except there they can be much more annoying tagging @everyone all the time. Long story short, I don't think it's worth it. The problem isn't that big to begin with & a Discord server would only enable chat trolls more. I've received a lot of reports from the report board and people have been asking for help regarding to ban them. As such, I don't think this issue is any less as the troll actually messing with the pages. If a troll really wanted to mess with a page, they'd be smart enough to stay out of the chat until they can edit the page.

DBF is vastly different from us. Their normal chatroom is very commonly used, unlike ours. Then they removed that, and their Discord was being used at it's peak. Their Discord stopped being used when they brought back their chatroom iirc.

A welcome channel could be made where admins can allow users to chat in the other channels, or reject likely trolls or people who haven't shown to be trust-worthy.
