Talk to the people around you. poqpoq World connects to Discord so joining voice is one click away -- no hunting for channels, no alt-tabbing, no friction.
Text chat creates communities. Voice chat creates friendships. poqpoq World uses Discord as its voice layer because it is free, reliable, and something most players already know how to use. When you walk into a new area, a voice channel is automatically created for that location. A single click in the game UI drops you straight into the right conversation.
No extra software to install (beyond Discord itself), no accounts to create, no subscriptions to pay. Just link your Discord account once, and voice is always one click away.
Joining voice chat takes about thirty seconds the first time. After that, it is a single click every time you want to talk.
The voice indicator sits in the top bar and changes based on what is happening around you. Here is what each state means.
| What You See | What It Means | What Happens When You Click |
|---|---|---|
| Voice: 3 in Discord | Three people are talking in this area's channel | Opens the voice channel so you can join them |
| Voice channel ready | A channel exists but nobody is in it yet | Opens the channel -- be the first to start a conversation |
| No voice channel | Nobody has been in this area recently | Nothing -- a channel will appear when the area gets visitors |
| Link Discord for voice | Your Discord account is not linked yet | Opens the account linking flow in settings |
You do not need to create voice channels or figure out which one matches your location. The system handles it automatically.
When you enter an area like pOqpOq Plaza, the system checks whether a voice channel already exists for that location. If it does not, one is created automatically under the WORLD VOICES category in Discord. The channel is named after the location, so you always know where a conversation is happening.
When everyone leaves an area, its voice channel sticks around for five minutes in case someone comes back. If the area stays empty, the channel is quietly removed. This keeps the Discord server tidy -- you only ever see channels for places where something is actually happening.
If you have linked your Discord account and opted in, moving between areas in poqpoq World can automatically move you to the matching voice channel in Discord. Walk from the Plaza to Allen's Workshop and your voice follows you -- no clicking required.
The community Discord server is organized into sections that mirror what you care about. Here is the layout.
The WORLD VOICES section is fully automatic. You will never need to create, rename, or delete a voice channel. The channels that appear there reflect the places in poqpoq World where people are actually gathered right now.
Your role in Discord is synced with your poqpoq World account. As you progress, your Discord permissions expand to match.
Role syncing is automatic and one-directional. When your poqpoq World account tier changes, your Discord role updates to match. You do not need to request a role change manually.
Builders can place a Discord widget directly inside the 3D world. This is a live panel -- usually set up on a flat screen or notice board prim -- that shows who is currently online and which voice channels are active. You can see at a glance whether your friends are around before you even join a channel.
Look for screen-shaped objects in social areas like pOqpOq Plaza. These "community boards" display the live Discord widget, showing online members and active voice channels. It is a window into the community without leaving the 3D environment.
If you are a builder, you can set this up yourself: create a flat prim, open the Build Panel's Media tab, and paste the Discord widget URL. The prim face becomes a live community dashboard.
Every voice-related action in poqpoq World uses deep links -- URLs that open the correct place in Discord directly. Whether you click the voice indicator, a community board, or a link shared in text chat, you land exactly where you need to be. If you have the Discord desktop or mobile app, it opens natively. If not, it opens in your browser.
There is nothing to configure. The system knows which area you are in and generates the correct link automatically.
Linking your Discord account shares only your Discord username and user ID with poqpoq World. No passwords, no message history, no friend lists, no guild memberships -- nothing beyond the bare minimum needed to connect you to the right voice channel. You can unlink your account at any time from the settings panel.
Your Discord username is only visible to other players in poqpoq World if you choose to show it. By default, other players see your poqpoq display name, not your Discord identity.
