5 - I would greatly prefer giving up Mumble for Discord.
4 - I'm happy to give up Mumble for Discord.
3 - I don't care with VOIP we use.
2 - I prefer Mumble and would dislike Disord
1 - I am absolutely unwilling to switch to Discord.

Pros for mumble - Faster. Open Source. More stable. Light weight.
Pros for discord - More widely used. Does not require a client. Has text channels. Free.

Just to clarify, we currently have a discord server that we use for text chatting, and I encourage all of you to join up for that! I'm wondering if you'd prefer to ONLY use discord and ditch Mumble as the VOIP server.

2/1. I would spend 0 time on voice unless I was actively playing a game with someone if we switched to discord.

I've sorta grown into Mumble. Never used it before joining AM, but it is fairly solid and it being open sourced is just amazing. As per Discord, I didn't like it at first either, but it turned out to not be that bad.

I do like how Discord has persistent chat and voice in one package, so that is the one big feature that Discord has going for it.

I'm ultimately at 3, leaning towards 4, so basically 3.3 ish on the scale. I ultimately don't care about which voip system is used, but Discord having persistent chat is a big bonus.

I think it would be nice if more people joined in on the chat part of discord. We have it set to no voice chat right now but no reason we can't change that. I prefer mumble. We just wonder if it would be a good idea to make our discord more used since its so popular among the rest of the universe it seems.

i say 3, but for the bi-weekly 5v5's i'd say to use discord instead since many of my friends refuse to download mumble. although it's a non-issue and you can use in-game chat, i just figured I'd put my 2 cents in.

I don't know much about discord, and don't really use it. Maybe I could grow into it, but as of now I use Mumble only. I'm at 3 cause like I say, I may grow into discord, and I like have the choice to use multiple VOIP system, incase one starts going nuts on us... lol

2 or 3. It allows me to be on Discord and Mumble at the same time since Discord does not support multiple connections.

we just need people to occasionally drop into discord some and throw a few comments here or there. This will help us slowly build it up.

Oh I didn't even comment on this.

3 for me. I don't care what we use but I won't use both.

Don't worry, expecting you to use two VOIPs is obscene.

The neutrality of opinion makes me just want to keep mumble, which I prefer.

No to Discord. Every time I tried to use it for streamers it would always give me a hard time. It might of been because I was using the web client or something but I just didn't like it. I will try it tho if someone walks me through it, but I do not want to switch.

I don't want to switch I want to use discord fit posting info to each other and what not. It's good for that.
