Recommend modding communities

[FWolfe]

I'm hesitant to agree (beyond the TIS discord), especially without a strict set of guidelines as to what qualifies a server to be included. I personally sit in over half a dozen servers with their own 'modding communities' where people ask questions and get help, but when it comes down to it these servers are primarily there to provide support and collaboration for the owners personal modding projects or have a large amount of unrelated activity (my own discord server also falls into theses categories).

Out of all the servers I'm on there is only one that is specifically for modding discussion without attachment to any projects or other distractions with all channels dedicated to various modding aspects, but is also disqualified from the list by being invite only (closed to general public to reduce the signal to noise ratio).

I'd really rather not have us in the situation where we're listing support servers for various mods simply because there are a few channels in there where people discuss modding in general. Without strict inclusion/exclusion guidelines it could become messy leading to questions why is this server included but not mine? and less useful (diluted waters).

My preference and original goal of the document was to limit it strictly to the technical aspects (which are very clear-cut) and not get bogged down by other aspects which maybe better suited to the general wiki. The guide was intented be more of a knowledge endpoint then a hub.

My opinion here should not be considered a hard and fast no, this idea should certainly be open to further discussion.
