Alrighty! So, it's been about a year since we started this, and I think it's finally time to make it more open rather than relying on word of mouth. Me and a few other mods made an **Unofficial Kongregate Discord Server**, and would love to have you join us!
___
Oh yeah, first off, what even is Discord? It's a group chat client, in the vein of Skype, where you can find/be invited to servers for specific groups, like this one!
___
As for joining itself, a _permanent Invite Link is below_. However, due to abuse potential, we require anyone who wishes to join to, after joining, **send a message (through Kongregate, not Discord) to one of the Server Mods in it** (TheLinkToThePast, itsn0tme, FelineForumer, DaveOP, Darky14, MaginManiac7, Toa_of_Pi) **from the Kongregate account you want associated with it, with your Discord tag enclosed for confirmation purposes.** Beyond that, hope you guys enjoy, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Oh I see, Magin cares about the regular Kong discord more than the OT discord that he left behind.

I joined up, but I only see 2 channels?

The Verified Users role unlocks access to the rest of the channels. You can also ping a mod to request a custom hex color once you're verified.

Way 2 much pain to get into :/

You literally just need to send one message through Kongregate. Not even necessarily to me, to any server mod. I don't even need you to read the entire rules, just the very last message. It probably took more effort to read this than it does to get in.

Since criticism gets removed and raged at, I have to say it's an easy process to get in

I To Agree That The Method To Obtain Access To The Server Is Entirely Reasonable And Required.

I'll just add that I originally hid an above post when flagged because it bumped a 1 1/2 year thread and I wasn't sure of the status of the Discord, but unhid since there is current discussion happening.

It's quite hypocritical to criticize this process when it's the norm all over Kong.
Who can't remember calling up the admins when creating their first account and handing full real name and social security number?
Or when you make an alt and have to provide your original account's username to proceed?
Or when you want to follow Kong on Twitter and have to DM the admins with Kong's username before accepting the follow?
So it's only fair that an unofficially made server by unofficial users to have the same or even stricter restrictions.
Kids these days, they want it all easy. I blame anime and video games for corrupting the youth. They think they can just click a link and chat up. No sweety, this is real life. If it was for me I'd have those wanting to join first fill up a survery to check their IQ, skin color, religion and their political stance on hot topics to see if they are truly worthy of joining.
I'll go set up a discord account now. I'd love to have the same faces on Kong moderate me elsewhere but with more power and no administration to report them to. If it was up to me, I'd have Kong mods moderate everything in my life, even the color of my panties when I decide to wear some.

I vote for neon pink, and lights up in the dark. I don't even care if you wear it anywhere OTHER than on your crotch
I apparently wasn't around when Kong was still communicating via morse code. But anyways,

verifying via known/confirmable routes is a common practice not just in Kong but all over, too. (never heard of verification code sent via text message? Gmail does. Why Kong doesn't confirm the linked e-mail is a mystery, but that's a separate issue)

That's the current status of the Discord.

The verification process goes a step above other servers but if anything that should be something that's appreciated, it's not too much to ask of people I think

Is it still bloated with people who don't even know what a "Kongregate" is like when Mamoon/Kick owned it?
