      one of the community managers in a server i used to be a mod in was hacked by one of the scams. long story short, they kicked all the other mods but thankfully the other community manager at the time (who actually had owner perms) came online after we spam pinged them and kicked the hacked acc. it was VERY stressful but thankfully the hacked person made a new acc and now we’re all paranoid of suspicious links 😀

    I joined Discord in september 2015 where my friend had made a small server. I later took over the ownership of said server and along with my other server I made in early 2016, both have been actively running ever since. I remember having to spend weeks setting up my server and making them raid-proof with roles. Back then NadekoBot was one of the only good bots you could get and I'm still using it to this day. I'm proud to say that that ancient bot has been doing it's job without fail for all those years.

    My short history on discord in a summary:
    Discord wasnt that well known for me in 2015 and I wasnt that active on social media either so yeah I only focused on playing games. On 2016 I kept hearing about it but didn't join it for some reason that I forgot but probably because I thought it wasnt worth joining. On 2017 I finally joined discord because my friend just asked me to join it and I cant see why not. 2018-2019 I was barely active on Discord and on 2020 I just joined some servers and became known there but left at 2021 without a farewell and just focused on reading comics, novels, and doing school work. 2022, Yeah I was active on gaming, reading, on discord, and etc. My schedule is busy so atm Im just trying to balance it all out before school starts again on August.
