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...
I'm in 60+ servers, but actively follow maybe 4-5. Others are for different games, twitch communities, lots of subreddit discords since I haven't used Reddit since the API bullshit... I should trim down the list but I like popping in to them occasionally, don't feel like I should get banned due to activity in a server I rarely check
