At the Creeper's Lab, the starting point has obviously been the main website itself. Beyond that, though, there was a demand for something that others could easily contribute to, which is why we dedicated a discussion forum focused on this. The resources forum is still in use today. Any staff member is free to post there, each topic being about something different, creating a structure that's simple enough to browse and link to.

Later on came the wiki, using a format that many are familiar with thanks to Wikipedia and other well-known sources. Not only does it offer more flexibility than the forums do, it's explicitly designed for this, with tools that are more user-friendly. Even better, anyone with an Interordi Account can simply login and start editing. You see something that's missing, or obviously wrong? Login, edit, save, done! The wiki's search has also been integrated in other places, like in-game with the /wiki command, making it simple to interact with.

One thing that many will agree on, and readily criticize, is that Discord is NOT a good alternative. Several communities have migrated to it over the years, and while it's great for casual conversation and planning things with other people, it's far from ideal for documentation or information. For one, you can't access any of it through a search engine like Google – it has to be found within Discord itself. This search is limited to what features they offer, lacking the ability to do things like search for exact words. There's also the lack of an index or directory to let you see what's available. Sure, you can use Discord's forums feature – but then, why not just use regular forums, that you can access from anywhere and is open to others not already in the server?

Unfortunately, the trend in some communities is not looking good. Information wants to be free!
