Discord Transparency

Discord is where the Temple works. We have deeply customized our Discord server to meet our needs, having developed the Temple Rituals bot and web app to help us with compensation, governance, and project management. As mentioned previously, we refer to working channels and threads in our Discord as Chambers.

TempleDAO is deeply committed to transparency and decentralization. We have nearly all of our working Chambers public to our community. We have a naming convention to help members quickly understand the visibility and permissions of a Chamber. Each Chamber in Discord will have one of the suffixes below at the end of the channel name to communicate this at a glance:

• no suffix: everyone can read and post to this channel

• -m = members of an enclave can post; everyone can read

• -t = team can post; everyone can read

• -p = private; only team members can read

This convention allows for the following:

• Increased team & community transparency

• Creates a space for structured product conversations in public

• Standardizes a method for moderation

• Minimizes discord complexity

• Utilizes and reinforces the existing org structure tools
