TarnVeilChannels and messages
Split subjects across text channels, send files and images, reply to messages and pin what matters.
People with something in common
Communities, group chats and discussions in one space
In TarnVeil you can gather friends, a team or a club: split the talk into channels, keep separate discussions, hand out roles and call each other without leaving for another service.
What a community gives you
A community keeps conversations, people and rules in a structure you can read — not in one endless feed.
Discussions
Start separate threads with titles and tags, so long conversations do not get lost in the main chat.
Roles, rules and moderation
Set roles and permissions, publish the rules, work through reports and control who has access.
Invitations and QR codes
Hand over a short link or a QR code. The person on the other end decides whether to join.
Starting your own space
- Create the communityGive it a name and a description, so people can tell what the space is for.
- Set up the structureAdd channels, rules and roles that fit a small team or a club.
- Invite peopleCopy the invite link or show the QR code to the people you want inside.
Invitation only
TarnVeil does not publish private communities in an open directory. People join by invitation, and the rules and access inside a space are controlled by its owners and moderators. This is an early beta, so before a big launch it is worth testing the structure and the permissions on a small group.
Frequently asked questions
How do I invite people to a community?
With an invite link. It opens in a browser on a computer or a phone, and it can be entered as a guest, without signing up. The link can be given a lifetime and a limited number of uses.
How is a discussion different from the main chat?
A discussion is a separate thread on its own subject, with its own unread counter. Conversations on different subjects do not blur into one feed, and somebody coming back sees what they missed in the thread they care about.
Is there a public directory my community will end up in?
No. Communities are not published in a public directory and are not indexed — the only way in is an invitation from somebody already inside.
What happens to the chat when somebody is removed?
Being kicked or banned cuts the person off from the community's text channels and its voice rooms at once — the connection to the media server is dropped rather than left to run to the end of the conversation.
