    We told you this would happen. We told you this would be the result of “age verification”. As usual, you fucking didn’t listen.

    I hope Discord is sued into receivership over this.

      Discord isn’t the one that got hacked and leaked the info, it’s whatever 3rd party they used.

        that’s just a feeling, right? there’s no prior experience that could trigger that, right? *nudge, nudge. wink, wink.*

        Anyway, miraculously i haven’t been hit with the age-wall yet, bur when i do, Discord will lose a user.

          I checked and both of my accounts are considered adult apparently, so hopefully they won’t change that in the future for me and that will be the end of that for me.
