    Issue #233: add Discord server to irc page.
    
    As per discussion in #gimp, let's add mention of the Discord server to
    irc now that we have admin access there.
    
    I also cleaned up the text very slightly (e.g. changed "obsolete" to
    "redundant", they are not synonyms ;D )

-Several IRC channels and [mailing lists](/mail_lists.html) are available for discussing GIMP-related topics. 
IRC offers real-time communication, but be aware that there may be long periods of silence in the channels 
when other users are busy or away from their keyboards. When you join the GIMP IRC channels, please do not 
ask if somebody can help you. If you have a question, ask directly and then wait patiently to see if someone 
answers. Other recommendations can be found [at the bottom of this page](#rules).

 The official GIMP IRC channels are on GIMPNet ([irc.gimp.org](irc://irc.gimp.org/)) and have existed for 
more than 20 years. Many [channels related to GTK+ and GNOME](https://live.gnome.org/GnomeIrcChannels) are 
also on GIMPNet.

 The main GIMP IRC channels described above are on GIMPNet (irc://irc.gimp.org/), the official network for 
topics related to GIMP and GNOME. However, several channels also exist on other IRC networks, though 
sometimes also operated by core team members, more often by third-party community members.
-
 The community is very welcome to discuss about GIMP anywhere, on other IRC channels as well as on other 
networks, chat protocols and forums. Nevertheless our channels on GIMPNet stay so far the only instant 
conversation means officially operated by the GIMP project (as this has been the case for many years).

 ### <a name="rules"></a>Rules and hints
 
 *   Don't expect to be greeted. Start talking or listen.
-*   <a name="just_ask"></a>Don't ask to ask, just ask. Questions like "May I ask a question?" are obsolete, 
you have obviously joined the channel to do something. Questions like "Can someone help me?" cannot be 
answered until you have described your problem. Be direct and describe your problem or question immediately.
+*   <a name="just_ask"></a>Don't ask to ask, just ask. Questions like "May I ask a question?" are redundant 
since you have obviously joined the channel to do something. Questions like "Can someone help me?" cannot be 
answered until you have described your problem. Be direct and describe your problem or question immediately.
 *   Be patient. This is not a phone support line.
 *   Don't ask frequently asked questions. Using a search engine, visiting [this web site](/), the [developer 
site](https://wiki.gimp.org/) and reading the [documentation](/docs/) will help you to determine if your 
question falls into this category. It's not forbidden to ask the question, though, but you should be prepared 
for answers like "RTFM" or "use Google".
-*   Don't mess with other users. In case of doubt, they are far more experienced than you, might have admin 
status or be the equivalent to gods, IRC operators. An occasional joke is ok (unless your sense of humor is 
really weird), but try to keep a minimum of maturity.
+*   Be respectful towards other users.  An occasional joke is ok (unless your sense of humor is really 
weird), but try to keep a minimum of maturity.
 *   Don't make fun of other people's problems with the language. English is the language used in the main 
GIMP-related channels and it might not be the native language of some users.
-*   Don't assume that you can break the rules if others seem to do so. There are a few users in #gimp who 
have been granted a jester's license. Additionally, there is an unwritten rule that you may talk offtopic up 
to the amount of your ontopic contribution.
-*   In #gimp (the main channel), the GIMP developers have special privileges and may use and abuse them. If 
you are not comfortable with that, then you should join #gimp-users instead.
-*   Don't mess with the admins. You will regret it.

 *   Say what you want, tell us what you've done, and be precise about it.
