Uboachan in social media

Uboachan users have used other means of communication besides the boards, official and unofficial, often receiving criticism for circlejerk and drama.

IRC
The oldest and most universally liked place to chat, discussion was moderate but in control, when Discord started to become big the channel became inactive, which gave one of the mods the brilliant idea of making a Discord server, the remains of it can be found in Irchighway #uboachan

Facebook group
A closed facebook group for no other purpose than shitposting was created in 2012, the year of the peak of its activity, with 59 members, today rotting in inactivity and forgotten, it was never mentioned in the boards.

Skype group
Similar to the Facebook group, the Skype group was low on activity and rotting, later becoming irrelevant when Discord came around.

Discord official server(Uboachan)
AKA Containment chat, it's the most used official channel of communication nowadays, half of the users didn't want it to be created, because it was thought it'd only produce circlejerk and drama, and that's precisely what happened, although it's very functional and active.

Originally being created somewhere in 2016 by a mod as an unofficial hangout, Seisatsu caught hold of it and created his own server. After some back and forths, people migrated to Sei's server in 2017 and now it became the official channel.

Because of the repeated cases, bringing drama from the Discord to the boards became taboo, some consider the server to be a completely different community separated from Uboachan that happens to have Ubuu users in it.

Many of the members have recognized they don't even visit the boards or lurk.

Discord containment server(Uboachan's containment server)
AKA containment server of the containment chat, the moderation in the Discord server has been criticized for have different standards there than in the boards* and having a more strict response to racism, sexism and slurs in general, which gave birth to arguments, personal attacks and other kinds of pathetic behavior.

The containment server was created for users who were not happy with the rules in the main discord, there they are allowed to behave as they please, far away from the official server.

* The reality is that a lot of posts in the boards simply flew over mods heads, but the criteria for moderation was more or less the same.
