Many of you have made it known you would like a group chat and I agree it has helped in the football league I run and in other leagues I am in. This will not replace proboards and guys will still need to be active on here, but it will definitely help speed trade talks up and help get league announcements out faster to people
1. Discord 2. Slack 3. GroupMe 4. Other?

My vote is Discord. I have experience with all 3 and I think all 3 work fine, but GroupMe seems to be a little messy and not the best system for handling this type of thing. I like Slack and Discord probably equally, but I feel, at least for the app, that Discord is cleaner and runs smoother.

I like Slack and Discord probably equally, but I feel, at least for the app, that Discord is cleaner and runs smoother. My vote is for slack and I have reasons why it is better than discord. I think overall Discord and Slack are very similar and its user preference. The biggest difference is that you can specifically have different usernames (team names) on slack as opposed to Discord. I think an example is easier. Discord: Mal has his name as Akron Hammers (Mal) on the specific group for the league. In the general chat or trade block, etc, it will show up as that. BUT if you try and DM/PM him, it will be whatever his username is and NOT Akron Hammers (Mal) Slack: Mal has his name as Akron Hammers (Mal) on the specific group for the league. In the general chat, trade block, etc, it will show up as that. ALSO, when you go to DM/PM him, it will show up as Akron Hammers (Mal) - This may seem like a minor thing but by being in other leagues, I cant tell you the amount of times I have to ask the owner who they are and it is annoying and makes it frustrating to do. - My honest opinion is if you have Discord for one league only, Discord is fine because its specific to that one league and this issue isnt there. Slack keeps each group or channel specific to each league, and you can have the customization you want and no time wasted in knowing who is who. - The last major positive with slack vs discord is the following. Every PM/DM you get from teams keeps it in that specific league chat and not all in one running tab of DM's. I am in a football and hockey league and all PM's are in one PM category and not separated by league. Partner that with the other issue I said and it makes it hard to know what team it is and what league.

I’m going to say I’m old and I don’t know any of those three so my “other” choice is only because I don’t know one to pick over the others. Im along for the ride so I’m down for any choice that’s made as a group.

Im along for the ride so I’m down for any choice that’s made as a group. No worries, they are all pretty simple to pick up and learn, so shouldn't take very long for you to get it figured out. Also plenty of us have experience with each, so any questions you would have someone would be able to answer and hopefully get it sorted out for you
