Discord is a fucking plague. I loathe it for communities. As soon as there are more than 10 people in a room, no one can follow what anyone is saying. Threads? No dude, this isn’t the 90s! Let’s slack it up!!! 🤮
It also seems to attract a younger crowd - I had to state my age to join one server and the mod screenshotted my info and everyone laughed calling me "boomer". I'm only 40 (Millennial) and it wasn't a gaming or specifically teen-server. It was a silly ironic European Reddit server.
The subreddit seems to have a range of ages. The Discord server is a bunch of kids commenting capybara and cat emojis like it's funny. :/
The age is represented?
I dunno why but they wanted you to comment your name, age and location in a welcome channel. I did and they screenshot and shared it in the main channel. Most of the people are around 16-19 with a few 20-25yo. I didn't know that til I joined though!
I was very weird to be there apparently.
I just wanted to take the piss out of Europeans. There's no age-limit in that.
Please do, I enjoy banter, especially when it comes from the colonies
Colonies?! Colonies?!!!? I'm British you dirty Kraut! Wait, do you mean the Saxons?
Listen here you little shit! Don't try and be funny. You're German - it's not in your nature!
Ouch. I've been called many things, but never that. Calling someone German who isn't, is not banter, that is genuinely hurtful.
Being hurt by being called German although not being one hurts my German feelings.
Not if you knew my nationality. I'll give you a hint: we have much more than you of the following: languages, gold, mountains.
Oh a fellow swiss-bro. Although according to this: https://tradingeconomics.com/country-list/gold-reserves Germany has 3 times as much gold.
That's what we want them to think!
That is truly weird...
Thanks for answering!
