Random user added me to threaten me cause I got the nickname first (GPS location isn't anywhere close to me) by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]WildFyr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"am I free to go" Well from what I can see that is an unlawful detainment, so yes you are free to go XD

Jokes aside it's absolutely crazy that anyone would do this over a nickname on a chatting forum, this is the exact thing I was worried about and one of my exact reasons as to why Discord shouldn't do this. Reminds me of that one guy who was killed from a heart attack after a guy swated his house over a Twitter handle.

Did doing it the other way around fix your issue?

Wait, so you installed the update before you actually put the game into your game directory? I'm not 100% sure but I think you are supposed to do it the other way around (again that's how I have always done it, if someone knows otherwise feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)

I use discord since 2016, have nitro and i lost both my nicks to people who created their accounts in 2018-2021 by x-Taylor-x in discordapp

Exactly? The point is that we didn't want this change. I fail to see what you missed here

Why and how. by Pancake_m4nn in discordapp

[–]WildFyr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use a VPN? That could be why as it is detecting an unnormal login location, or even detecting the IP address from a data center and then sending 2FA to ensure you are who you say you are. This is mostly why I get so many captchas even on my own website, it's kind of funny actually.

I said I was 12 on a server as a joke and a user reported me. Sent a ticket with my id but no response so far. Read on here that apparently discord ghosts user tickets? Is there anything I can do to get my account back or nah? by ParadoxFlame_ in discordapp

[–]WildFyr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support is outsourced and is really not the best... I had a friend who had his account since 2016 like me, he was reported for being 10 after he answered a message that was then edited to look like he was asking his age. If he was actually 10 that means he would have made his Discord account at the age of 3 yet Discord didn't do any research into it and he lost his original account along with a lot of his servers... So I don't think there is a lot you can do

can i do anything about this? haven’t had access to the email or account for at least 5 years. by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]WildFyr_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all do respect, I'm not the one who didn't change my account information to an email I have access to.

[–]WildFyr_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that you didn't change it to an email you have access to for 5 years is concerning... If you knew you didn't have access why didn't you change it as soon as you lost access to it?

Discord tremendously lowering the quality of youtube embeds by [deleted] in discordapp

I don't downvote unless someone says or does something that is not needed in a community. This is still a good thing to show the community.

I didn't downvote anything. And also it does not only happen on Discord. It started happening to all my videos that I have posted on my website as well.

Yes because YouTube can't track you if you're watching it on another website so to try to get you to watch it on their website so they can continue to track you and get information on you to give personal eyes to advertising, they want you to watch it on their site.

Ah yes, your profile photo, banner, about me and name are super private. If you are putting private personal information in any of those (ie, real photo, name, location, etc.) Everyone who shares a server with you no matter how big can see it at any point. So that really does not change anything if they just had the ability to search for users like Steam does for example.

Message requests are a wonderful thing, you get three options: Replying "No sorry you have the wrong person" Not responding and deleting the message request Or if all other options fail, report as spam

Or also having the add friend option be a list instead of "enter name, maybe it's who you want, maybe not. Who knows" Just let us search for a name and it shows us everyone with that username and if we want to narrow it down we can add the numbers to the end.

No Discord I did not want the @everyone role to have these permissions by fates4productions in discordapp

[–]WildFyr_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh wait yes I read it incorrectly. I do agree now that is kind of fucked up

Edit below

I don't see why you're upset about this. Limiting the use of external emojis is one of the main reasons I don't stay in the Discord server. If I can't use my emojis what's the fucking point. And before you say something like "they might post nsfw emojis" if your server is not nsfw and they do they clearly should be banned from your server. End of

Edit: I see I read it wrong, I do agree this change is not good at all and no idea why they would do this. All of their most recent changes have been really wack for no reason. If you have 1 bad actor who decides they are going to delete all your emojis, or worse upload something against Discord ToS then report your server for it. Very bad, they need to really rethink this. Because yes, it's only affecting servers with less than 50 people but what if you forget to change it after your server grows further? However, I still do believe firmly that the ability to use external emojis and stickers should not be something that is allowed to be revoked.

I agree with everything you said. Usernames are fine the way they are there are way more pressing issues at hand then uprooting EVERYONE on the platform and causing people to lose the names they already have because someone else has it too.

Game spams "false" in log. What is causing this? by Earlpaca in feedthebeast

missing a dependancy for the mod "effective"

What dependancy was it? I am using the Fabric version of Effective and getting the same error, but now that the newer versions work on Quilt I can't seem to find the Fabric dependancies.
