DGG Chat
More actions
DGG Chat is a live chat hosted on Destiny.gg to chat about Destiny's stream when he is live, and used for communication between DGG members when he is offline.
Chat Guidelines
| Not to be confused with the over-arching Destiny community guidelines. |
DGG is meant to be a chatroom, with a unique character not unlike the IRC chats of old. With these rules we seek to preserve this culture, foster a welcoming community, and please Destiny and chatters alike.
Conducting
The largest Set of rules concern conducting, streaming to DGG as a chatter. As a general set of rules:
- Do not stream while Destiny is live.
- Stop streaming if you are streaming and Destiny signals his intent to go live.
- Do not use DGG to harass and/or interact with small/random streamers/communities.
- Do not stream to chat for your own monetary gain. This means you can NEVER accept money for ANY conducting related activities.
- Do not stream during typical and/or expected stream times.
- If you are going to conduct something, be focused, do not simply be a conduit for whatever chat desires at that moment.
- If the content which you want to conduct is not listed here, assume it is not allowed, but feel free to ask moderation about special cases.
- Do not link or embed a streamer from outside the community who is conducting a movie/TV show.
- After conducting time ends, you must cease streaming. For at least a half hour, no form of streaming to chat is allowed.
Cinema
| Check out the DGG Movie Sheet or the DGG Letterboxd to see movies that DGG has watched. |
- If Destiny has not said he is modifying his typical schedule, see the normal schedule.
- If Destiny goes on vacation for more than two days (no stream exceeding 1-2 hours) in a pre-planned manner, movies will be extended via the vacation schedule.
- In the case that Destiny leaves for a day or two, and he states this in a pre-planned manner, flaired conductors can stream one movie each day he is gone at their preferred time, within the time frame of 11:00AM-10:00PM.
- To officially request a movie, use this Google form.

Hate-watching
Feel free to be insane and watch something you hate, but re-streaming any such content is discouraged. Do not re-stream Hasan simply because he is saying crazy stuff and people are watching him in chat. If something crazy is happening and worth
Radio
Feel free to share your love of music with other chatters during offline chat, some guidelines apply:
- Do your best to not promote spam.
- Radio should purely be about the music, refrain from showing other forms of content.
Games
It is discouraged to stream a game involving collaboration between chat and the conductor, such as Jackbox.
If you still decide to do so, limit the session to an hour or less (this limit will apply for an entire 24 hour period on all similar forms).
Debates
This is currently a bit gray, if you wish to hash out a chatroom debate in voice, feel free to stream it, but do not abuse this privilege. If such an event becomes regular, just start streaming for your own chat. Note that live streaming any debate in the Destiny.gg Discord is strictly forbidden.
Linkers
Unlike many online chatrooms, linking in DGG is not only allowed but often time encouraged. As a general rule of thumb, spamming links will get you banned. If you've posted a link once, don't post it again, everyone in chat has probably seen it, and so has Destiny, even if he didn't comment on it.
Posting an irrelevant meme with the misleading tag, e.g. "@Destiny Will you address these allegations? [pipeMemeLink]" will usually come with a ban.
NSFW
Posting NSFW has a long history in DGG, but over the years as Destiny has sought to lessen the "boys club" nature of chat, NSFW posting has been curbed.
- Posting NSFW during stream must be extremely relevant, otherwise expect a ban.
Utilities
Destiny's chat can be difficult to navigate and use at points if you are trying to do specific things. Thankfully the community has made various sites and scripts to try and help you chatters enjoy the chat more.
Websites
| tena.dev | Mainly a site for monitoring who posts the most of a particular emote or various stats about a user, this site keeps persistent data. | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| polecat.me | Hosts various hubs DGG information

Scripts
- https://vyneer.me/utilities Installed as a userscript, this allows users to have an extended amount of usage out of chat, avoiding nukes, seeing embeds in chat, and being alerted as to whether or not you are typing a banned phrase.
- https://github.com/Fritz-02/dgg-scripts/tree/main Chatter Fritz has made various scripts for dgg chat, though not widely used, one allows you to ignore chats from certain embed watchers, or ignore links from unsubbed chatters (who rarely are posting good memes anyway). This has been discouraged[1] by RightToBearArmsLOL.
