Well that's no better than searching IRC logs, which are something folks have absolutely done in the past. I still haven't figured out why folks like discord so much though.

People like it cause when it first came out, it was considerably better than other popular voice chat software available for PC games at the time, like TeamSpeak and Ventrillo. But most importantly: it was free, unlike those other two. So people flocked to it and it blew up big, leading us to where we are today.
