I'm so sorry they deleted your discord server
The control by pro-genocide extremists of tech and suppression of Palestinian support is pure evil

Yes, it seems so that my game's discord was deleted today, and every member of it, including me, received a warning and temporary limit on their account until tomorrow.

It was going to happen sooner or later.

The hypocrisy.

There's games made by the west that show the killing of brown and yellow people such as CSGO and Call Of Duty.
But they target the games that show the opposite of their agenda.

Why not remove all of the WW2, vietnam, gulf war, middle east games.
The rest of the world doesn't get offended but when there's a game of the "bad guy" doing the same to westeners (including Isr@el) then suddenly it's extremist and promotes terror.

I'm going to cancel my nitro I've been paying for years.

This just wants me to make my own game for palestine ngl. lol.

Every time I consider buying nitro I get reminded not to. I have never wanted a platform to go out of business more. Forums died for this.

100%

I wonder if and when discord dies out.
I distanced myself from discord a while ago but only kept tabs in the fursan al aqsa server every once in a while.

I'm glad now I have a reason to completely stop using it.
Might just delete my account too.
It's a valuable account, 2016 account with nitro subscribed since it first came out.
I don't care. Discord sucks, and they sell your data too.

I used to use forums and skype before discord. I miss those now.

I've been waiting for discord to die and be replaced since the day everyone started using it. I hated the look and feel of it. Scaled like crap and user unfriendly as hell too.
Unfortunately at the risk of sounding like a boomer, a lot of the newer generation are worse with computers than my grandparents. We just need to go back to teamspeak or something.

You brought up an old but good idea.
Maybe we can create a teamspeak server for fursan al aqsa.
Slowly but surely that will maybe spark more interest into using teamspeak.
I'm not sure if it'd be worth it but I can give it a try and send the link in here soon.

If you don't think it's a good idea what do you think would be better?

Do you know of other alternatives to teamspeak or discord?

I remember guilded but it's owned by roblox and might do the same as discord.
I'm very unsure if it would last long there.

Edit:
Redisovered that Element/Matrix exists. But it's banned in many countries and on google play store.

Id be down for teamspeak. Slowly but surely return to old faithful and let discord die out like it deserves

I have submitted an appeal which reads as follows...

Subject Line: "I should not be punished for merely participating in a friendly Palestinian game development fandom community server."

Description: "The Fursan Al-Aqsa Knights game on Steam is quite popular and very highly regarded. It is also being targeted for harassment by extremists in lots of Western countries who want to see its presence on all gaming platforms banned. Such extremists undertake many covert means of achieving their goals, such as false reporting, and false flag rule violating actions through sock puppet accounts. So far this has been successful in the UK, and it seems that now in the US, your platform is unfortunately becoming susceptible to such pressure. My participation in this server was severely limited compared with my other activities on other gaming-related servers, and yet because of some belligerents who possess personal political objections to the existence of a mere video game which I happen to enjoy, my account now has a black mark upon it due to your automated system's gullibility under such sensitive circumstances. Were the primary violators of these rules who actually triggered this ban themselves new arrivals to the server, and if so, why is this parameter not factored into deciding upon limitations for those who had nothing to do with those violations? I would appreciate either a repeal of this unjust restriction, or at least an explanation of the details that contributed to that. Again, to my recollection, I have not even sent any messages in this server, and joined out of my appreciation for the artistry of the game's development and gameplay mechanics. If you intend to police behavior on your platform, your moderation systems must be informed by environmental conditions which lead to the violation reports collected through both automated and manual submission means. Any decent moderator should be well aware of various abusive techniques like fraudulent coordinated group violation report campaigns. I suspect this is what ultimately caused this outcome. Please reconsider your ban decisions."

Thanks my friend for this! I also reported because I am also just a user of the discord server for my game, I was not the owner at all. Let's see if they will restore the server or not. In any way, twitter is where I post most about my game:

Create a server on Matrix. Element is the most well known app for it but there are several others as well. It's basically Discord, except it's open source and decentralized. Servers can't be banned there. Worst that can happen is users being blocked from joining server X if they are members of server Y as everyone makes their own rules.

the amount of outrage over one small game developed by a single palestenian living in brazil depicting the palestenians as the good guys

the amount of games where you gun down people from the third world are loved and praised, yet this is what gets targeted
