Channel Specific Nicknames
My friends and I have discussed that it would be cool if their were channel Specific (rather than server specific) nicknames. Like if, Server A had an RP channel, in the RP channel you would be seen as your character's name but in the main channel of Server A you'd be know as your Username or whatever other nickname you wanted.
On top of that, server specific icons would be rad!

Here is the git repository https://github.com/LilithTheSuccubus/pap-discordbot
Took me quite a while trying to figure git out, as I never really used it before, but here you go.Further questions regarding the bot might be better of in the above mentioned git, considering this thread is years old.

Yes please. Especially with so much online play these days. I want my character names tied to those channels. We have a server that house 6-10 games at any given time. I want my campaign names to show up in those channels/ videos!!

We don't use voice, but text only channels for our RPGs. I was thinking about working on a bot that would change the nickname based on the typing status. When someone starts typing in a channel, it would look up the nickname based on the channel or category for the channel and set it. That may get a little annoying when someone jumps between multiple channels/categories and they have different names for each. All their messages will all flip when their nickname changes.
Ideally, the nick displayed on the messages would remain static.1 -
WHY IS THIS NOT ADDED YET? PLEASE ADD.

There is a clear use-case for this, as I host a Discord server but have multiple voice/text channels for various games.
Thus,
Channel A: DND game with players A, B, C, D;
Channel B: online video game with players B, D, E, F;
Channel C: second DND game with players G, H, I, J;
Channel D: online shooter with players A, C, E, G;
In most cases, players aren't going to use the same handle in every game. In channel A, I'd like to be "Feros the Fighter", but channel C "Charlie the Cleric", and B "Serina the Sorceress" with D "xXx420_shootermanxXx", without having to cross-pollinate the usernames or do a /nick command every time I want to talk on a different channel.
@discord support/community management please do what you can to escalate this feature request.
[side note: no i do not actually use any of those character names, lol.]6 -
It'd be a very useful feature and I think that Eudas has perfectly explained in detail what could be a use case... So bump

Definitely bumping-- this would be massively useful for RPG servers with multiple games running. Agreed Eudas laid out the use case very well.
