That actually sounds like a good thing though.
It's great until you discover that Google's migration tool doesn't port Google Authenticator data when you switch phones. Ask me how I know. :-)

The first part of the TOS is standard, even something as simple as showing a thumbnail of a posted picture (which discord does) requires it. AutoHotKey have their own relatively active Discord server, so obviously, you can talk about it. What is banned is the use of macros on the Discord client itself. As for seeing every single message, then yes, certainly. That's how you get the entire conversation history when you…
This is the most well-thought-out response in the thread. My initial knee-jerk is too extreme. Thank you for the sanity check.

For a lot of my less tech-savvy friends, it has been a blessing too. Discord is incredibly easy to set up, the audio adapts without tweaking, and new chatrooms are just a couple clicks away. Really my only other option was Skype and that is seemingly much worse.
The majority of people I talk to on Discord went the route of AIM/MSN/Yahoo -> Skype -> Discord. The big thing that I found was that the concept of Discord server was so significantly better then using group messages on anything before it that everyone immediately flocked to it. Just the concept of channels is a new one to a lot of these people. The majority were not gamers (never used Teamspeak/Vent/Mumble), or part…
The general stability was also just fantastic compared to Skype. I used some Skype last year as part of a teaching role and good grief was it torture in comparison. Constant dropping, terrible quality, and painful to arrange.
Is there a reason why they don't just keep a fork their code and rebrand it as a "serious app" for corporate use and charge money for it? Discord has the best service for voice chat and screen sharing I've seen and I'd love to use it with clients instead of all the other weird apps I've had to use. The least painful so far has been Google Meet but even that one has its issues and likely an expirement date.

There's also an issue that there doesn't seem to be any way to mute @ mentions of roles you're assigned to. So if a server admin assigns you to a role and then mentions that role you'll get a notification even if server mute is on and suppress @everyone and @here is on.
I wonder if this is the reason I am still getting notifications on 2 servers. It sounds plausible, as they are game related servers, so quite possible I was assigned a role. I don't recall investigating this, although it is several months ago since I last tried solving mute issue. This does not solve my mute issue, but great to know that this might be the cause! Thanks for this.

>No strange rituals involving NickServ or ChanServ. True but God help you if you ever lose your discord 2fa seed; you'll have to throw away that identity and start over. [1] From their FAQ: Note: If you do not have access to your backup codes, we are unable to remove 2FA and you will have to create a new account. Discord cannot remove 2FA or issue you new backup codes. *1 https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/artic…

Why are macros banned? What kind of stuff can you do with macros? Spam?
But the rule is very odd. Most "gaming" focused mice/keyboards have software and buttons dedicated to performing macro functions, and they're present on major brands like Razer and Logitech equipment.
