The SpongeBob Community Discord (SBC Chat) is an official chat server originally created by Mr. Dr. Professor Patrick and now owned by Jjs. It is based on the Discord chat platform. It was founded on June 28th, 2016, and was officially made a part of SBC on February 10th, 2018.

The SBC Discord was originally created for use with SpongeCraft, although it has expanded and become a successor to the aging SBC Xat, which was declared unofficial in January 2014, and which was later abandoned entirely in favor of Discord. With a steadily-increasing number of users, the Discord server has grown to become the main hub of socialization on SBC, with (as of September 1st, 2021) a total of 105 users and 4 bots (MEE6, Starboard, UnbelievaBoat and Chuu). As of September 17th, 2022, there are 3 chat categories, 1 voice category, and 1 archive category. (check below for more details) Discord can run on various platforms, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. Alternatively, you can access Discord with the web app, available here. You used to be able to earn doubloons on the Discord, through Karen, but the feature was disabled in September 2018.

Chat Categories

SBC

#rules-and-announcements

A read-only channel that hosts the introductory post and important announcements. It is the only channel new members are allowed to see before they are let in.

#sbctopicfeed

A read-only channel that automatically posts when a new thread is created on SBC.

#sbc-games

Originally made due to issues regarding the SpongeBob Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Dunces and Dragons, and SBC Music rooms, the #jeopardy channel was created on August 17th, 2018. On August 18th, 2018, #jeopardy was renamed to #duncesanddragons for the Dunces and Dragons game that would take place later in the day. On August 25th, 2018, the channel was renamed to #sbc-games to host games until the revamped rooms were finished. It was made read-only and archived on September 16th, 2018, due to the new game rooms having been finished.

The channel was later resurrected on February 28th, 2021 for March Madness 2021 to promote and play SBC games, staying a permanent channel ever since. This marks the first time a formerly archived channel was brought back to life.

#dapit

Originally named #nsfw, this channel was intended to be a subsection for more mature content. The channel had become a hotbed for confusion for new members as a result of its name indicating that more mature content was meant to go there. In truth, the channel is rarely used for sexually mature topics and is instead traditionally used to post selfies and memes. The current pinned message reads as follows:

"ATTENTION: The NSFW channel is here for slightly more mature content that doesn't fit the general discussion thread as this Discord functions first and foremost a chatbox for a SpongeBob forum; the nature of the discussions had in the general discussion channel should be a reflection of the nature of our community. Conversations revolving around mature content will be directed here."

The channel originally gained much controversy due to sexually-explicit conversations between minors and adults occurring, which has lead to a shift in the channel's focus. The channel was renamed from "#nsfw" to its current on October 14, 2018.

#davent

The channel for venting and discussing personal issues happening in your life.

#robot-pirate-island

A channel created for checking message rank levels. You can check your rank by using the "!rank" command. This channel is also used to display welcome messages whenever new members join the Discord.

#music-fm

A channel created for using the Chuu fm bot. It was added April 3, 2021 for Jellyfish 14.

#starboard

The channel used for the Discord’s starboard. The starboard is a list of posts that were reacted to with a star 6+ times, which is used on posts that people like. It is considered a successor to the Archives thread.

Fake News Media

#da-art

A channel for posting drawings and art. It was added due to most members' art being posted in #dapit.

#writing

A channel for discussing writing, literature and your own SBC writings. It was first added for Spin-Off Festival 10.

#music

A channel for discussing music and sharing music. #music also has its own voice channel, discussed more in depth below.

A channel used to discuss both TV and film. This channel was added due to the high amount of discussion about both subjects on the chat.
