A Community Update (A small list of updates to bring discord to all not just gamers)

I LOVE discord, I think it is by far the best application for community managment and has made many amazing strides in the last few years, however there are some core things I think it needs to turn from a FOR GAMERS, master race into a platform for all. 

1st - Bots need a way to intreact with users more but in a safe way, so what if you add a SmartEmbed
where you provide some small html/js and the emebed when a user clicks any "submit" button returns
a json response to the API that can be used by the bot dev. Though the potential abuse is there for something like this, i think there are ways to limit that by limiting the html/js usable in the emebed. 

2nd - More channel types, right now we have Voice and Text. I think there are 3 more that would change discord to make it better for anime communities, photography groups and more. 

 Gallarys - These will let users upload images but that is it, the images get put in like a pintrest style system so its just a nice way to share photos, maybe sorting by date and other filters too. 

 Boards - These are channels that support FULL markdown, you can not post messages in them, instead you see the board with example content on creation and when you edit settings there is a "MarkDown" window where you see the raw markdown and can create your own things here. This would make things like rules/partners/about and other common server channels alot more personal and give servers whos aim is more than just basic hangouts alot more flexablity to show off what their about. For example a book club would be able to make a page with info on upcoming events that has a nice graphic too it. 

 GameRooms - this final room idea is around games, primarly browser games, I would love to see discord partner with a site like miniclip, adding their browser based games for users to just click and play in discord, but with a server leaderboard, so friends can play silly versions of pac-man and see who is the best on that server. This idea does not even need partnering, just make a few games that are easy to make like pac-man, space invader, tetris etc... that discord make. It would also be good if the person with the most score could gain a special role as a result. 

3rd - NESTED CATEGORIES, I think we need 2 layer deep nests. Let users create something like this:

        - Anime
        -- Shonen
         --#room 1
         --#room 1
        -- Slice of life
         --#room 1
         --#room 1

I think with these minor changes the entire feel of discord could be changed, taking what is an amazing platform to use in conjunction other things to backup your community into a one stop shop. As a business owner there are two more features that would make discord AMAZING. 

Google Drive intergration, just the ability to have a "Drive View" room where people can just see a explorer for google drive and double clicking anything simply opens it in web, however its linked to roles. 

So if i have a "Staff Update" folder I can in a settings menu select that the staff role can see/edit that folder. This would need alot of work but would be amazing. 

And the final feature would be Premium accounts, I would like to click on a discord server and that server has a secondary profile linked to it, so everyone in that discord sees that profile and not my weeb one.
