PSA, there's a really nasty Discord scam going around rn. If one of your friends DMs you, starting off with a simple "hello" "how are you", may even joke around a little, and then starts asking you to look at a game/project they're working on, don't click the link, don't download anything. If you can reach that friend through non-Discord means, reach out and let them know they got hacked.
One of my friends said the link takes them to a very convincing video game page that has in-game screenshots and stuff, and then gives you an option to download a playtest zip file or something. That download exploits a weakness Discord apparently has for password protected zip files and steals your Discord log-in and changes your account info to the scammer's account info. Two of my friends lost their accounts. Be careful.

Discord Account
Since several people are having trouble with tumblr messaging, and told me I should check out Discord, I caved and did so as of today. So yeah, I now have a discord account. LMAO@myself.
No idea why I have to set up a server, or most of the things getting tossed at me to talk to people, but I’m sure I’ll figure it out as I go.
