Discord-style prank text story: Server announcement
A ready Discord-style chat for a harmless prank, eight messages long and about 24 seconds as a video. Load it, change the words and export it as a labelled, fictional mock-up.
The full script (8 messages)
The first four messages open on the Free plan; the rest need a paid plan.
The script: Server announcement
Load Server announcement and you get eight messages: Moss starts with "Admin notice: all emojis are now banned.", Tilly closes with "I hate you. 😂", and the read-through takes roughly 24 seconds.
Look at message 1, "Admin notice: all emojis are now banned.", which runs 7 words, then at message 2, "Since when?". One of the lines is a question, and each one pulls a reply out of the other side.
How the Discord look carries the story
Dark mode is the default look, which suits late-night, gaming and horror stories without any extra setup. Discord is one of the looks open to everyone on the Free plan. Switch on typing dots, reactions and an online status when you build the scene; read marks are not offered for Discord. Usernames can carry a role colour, so one name in red and another in green tells the viewer who is the moderator before a word is said. This look has its own drawing in the editor.
Writing notes: prank
The best prank stories keep the trick harmless and the target in on the end. Build a clear set-up, let the trick run for three or four lines, then end with the reveal and a laugh. Pick a prank that is clearly funny and nobody could be hurt by: a fake delivery, a made-up contest, a mix-up with a pet. The viewer enjoys the trick more when they know nobody is truly upset.
What the Free plan shows
The Free plan opens the first four messages and two people, so Server announcement would stop at "You cannot do that.". The other four, through "I hate you. 😂", need a paid plan with a higher message limit and up to four people.
Tips
- Hold message 5, "I just did. Please use words.", a beat longer than the rest.
- A prank story loves a quick payoff, so aim for a video under thirty seconds with the reveal in the last five.
- Change one word of Tilly's closing "I hate you. 😂" so the ending is yours, then caption the video as a fictional chat.
- Rename Moss and Tilly to keep the story original, and keep every character an invented adult.
- Read Tilly's answer "Since when?" out loud; if it takes more than two seconds, trim it.
Questions
Can I use Server announcement on the Free plan?
Yes for the look, with limits. The Discord look is on the Free plan, and the editor loads the first four of the eight messages and two people. The rest of the script needs a paid plan. Exports on Free carry a visible ChatsRat watermark.
How long is Server announcement as a video?
About 24 seconds at a comfortable reading pace, counting eight messages with a short beat between them. Add a second or two for the ending card and a little more if you use a typing indicator before the last line.
What makes a prank story funny rather than mean?
The target should be fictional, the trick harmless and the ending warm. If the story would embarrass a real person, change it.
Is this Discord-style chat a real conversation?
No. It is an invented story between Moss and Tilly, made as a mock-up. ChatsRat is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Discord, and the name describes a style only. Label the video as fiction.
This is fiction. The people and events in this story are invented. ChatsRat makes mock-ups and fictional conversations for creators, designers and teachers.
