Dude in this discord server I'm in has Pepe the Frog in a Crusader outfit as his avatar. Unfortunately, it is a circumstance in which I'm compelled to deal with it rather than just ignore them, so I need sources to share with the server owner in order to convince them that a Crusader Pepe profile pic is a massive red flag.

Anyone got any resources I can link to?

I have a gut aversion to discord so not having experience with it. I am just curious, what kind of situation leads to someone needing to be in a discord?

Not directed at OP specifically. Just as a generally thing.

Well regardless what you think of discord a fuckton of folks use it to communicate online. All my people use discord.

Its quite useful if you follow smaller or indie games like you can get access to early footage or even gameplay and stuff like that. Lots of stuff gets posted on there early. I assume that is true for tons of other topics like music etc as well. I would assume if you want to connect or network its useful as well my buddy who is an artist get basically all his work through discord.
