welp... the amount of context and in-between messages that are missing (edited out) is large, I would appreciate it if things that I say were not presented in an easily misconstrued manner such as this.

In response to the claim in the post title: I wouldn't be able to honestly say that anything in the game is permanent, because it would not be prudent to assume that something in a live service game (like Fortnite) is permanent. And it's something that due to our holiday break would not even be able to be changed until like January sometime at the earliest, and even then I imagine the team would want to evaluate the impact other changes (as mentioned in the design chat) have on the game first.

Well if you want to be represented then represent in a more open location like the reddit or the official discord (or really anywhere but a private discord). For a community coordinator you sure like segregating yourself from said community. Keep posting to a streamers private discord and see where that gets you.

I find it's much easier to have natural conversations with folks on Discord rather than on Reddit. And while I do frequent a few Discords that are based around streamers, that is because they have active communities that do not hold back on their opinions (I value that greatly). I also am very involved in the operation of the Discord servers that Epic administrates (Official Fortnite, Fortnite Creative, Battle Breakers, etc.) as running those is something else that I do an addition to my duty to serve the STW community.

I don't have that much experience using Reddit as a platform compared to others (this is something I've been honest about in the past and will be here again). So I'm always looking at ways that I can improve my comment game, if you have any specifc things in mind I am happy to take them into consideration!
