Is Discord no longer a thing? Do I need to ask to join?

For me, the discord link at the top of the page seems to work, but the link from RUNIE's signature shows 'invalid'.
(It's a different link...)

Still getting "Invalid Invite" from the link in the OP, RUNIE's sig, and from the link at the top of the Ask for help page.
Not a big deal for me, I just wanted to check it out and see what it was about.

link at top works for me too. Hmm. maybe its to do with already being a member there? Or maybe some IP or region blocks / vpn / whatever

Then either your Discord account is banned from the Discord server, or by proxy your IP is banned. If you share household or live in a dorm, someone under the same IP (or someone that previously held the lease to your current IP) has been banned.

If you could give me your Discord username and discriminator (user#1234) I can check if your account has been banned, but it sounds like you've not been in the server previously.

Thanks.
If I have a user name it would be Hellbent.

I actually checked it out the same day as this thread was made. There was 31 people online but was very quite. I had the window open in the background for an hour or two and not once did someone type something in chat. Perhaps a off day.

ah, that was a weekend. weekends are indeed slow. And probably depends on your timezone, it's more active during USA hours. We used to have 4x the users, but then discord stole most of them, then freenode (where we used to be) went suicidal and we lost another 50% (the ones who were /never/ active. just joined for some reason, to sit and do nothing)

"If I have a user name it would be Hellbent."

Sounds like he was trying to join as an unregistered/guest discord user. Do we block/ban non-registered users, @RUNIE

No users banned with that name, so if you can't join it's because of an IP ban. I can't help you with that sorry.

No such thing as a guest Discord user as far as I am aware.

@RUNIE when discord was new, and I'd assume even now (not sure) you could join any server without even being registered to discord, similar to IRC, can just connect, use any non-taken name, join any room (that doesn't force "registered only")

I probably went a month without registering 'tidbit' just to see what discord was like. But that was what... 4-5+ years ago? Maybe now that its huuuuge they require an account as basic abuse protection, and to collect data.

Maybe, I can't really remember. It won't explain what Hellbent is seeing either way.
