This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Just because they didn't participate doesn't mean they didn't know it was there.
Discord specifically has a skip to most recent post button, that i use frequently on the busier ones, because I'm not scrolling through two miles of unrelated nonsense and sub-convos to get to what's currently relevant.
Am I guilty of thoughtcrime?
My question is why do people feel the need to be in 40 servers? I couldn't name 10 I give a shit about.
As a user you're voluntarily joining a server, you should know what the content is and how well it's moderated. Ignorance isn't a defense here; a server doesn't get nuked for one bad actor posting illegal content once or twice.
Nine times out of ten these stories are from a user that joins servers made for NSFW content (usually for something like OF leaks). There's no content verification and lots of active channels.
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that combo almost always ends poorly (see: reddit jailbait or old pornhub). If it feels risky just leave, there's no lack of places to find porn on the internet.
Edit: The downvotes and replies are hilarious. Have any of you actually been banned? Do you know anyone that has been banned? If these small servers for games or 10k member general servers were the issue, you'd hear about this way more.
Discord doesn't want to ban users, it's bad for business. They know what servers you're in and how you access them. If they think banning someone is worth it its to cover their ass on ACTUAL crime; nothing about this is thought crime.
Again, give me any counter example of masses of users being unjustly banned. You're tilting at windmills people...
1-3 for friend groups, 3-20 for various games because devs decided to stop using traditional forums so if you want to talk shit to a game devs face regarding changes that fix the exploit you've been using to have fun you have to pretend to be a discord kitten for months and gain their confidence so you can appropriately deal enough psychic damage to repay what they took from you, 5-10 for foss software collaboration, 5-10 for obscure porn game contribution so it stops taking ten fucking months between updates.
And I think I'm pretty asocial. Normies must have thousands of servers joined.
I'm in exactly 1 server, that my friend uses to organize game night at his place with many other people. If I could get him to switch platforms I would delete my account.
Limit is 200 with nitro but there is a reason why unofficial clients have workarounds for the limit
