    Hey Folks,

    I just recently discovered the glory of Discord. Yes, yes, I'm like ages behind everyone else. Would there be any interest in a Terra-Arcanum discord server?

    Woah. Not sure how I feel about breaking the fourth wall and actually hearing your voices. And your heavy breathing into the mic.

    But, since I already have discord installed I guess I'm game.

    Also, welcome back DF.

    I've created one called "Terra-Arcanum." I don't want to post a link to it, since that'll just attract bots/spam/etc. However, I will provide it to anyone who dm's me requesting it, and I'll post it in the admin's section, so they can provide it upon request as well.

    No one is going to bother sending you a DM to join, Matt. We're going to have to risk the spam bots. Let's just mitigate the risks.

    This link is good for 24 hours for a maximum of 10 users. If you use it, please introduce yourself or risk being kicked out. (You risk that anyway, but I promise introductions will reduce the probability, significantly.)

    I think the odd thing is, while I know who some people are through FB, I still identify people with their Terra-Arcanum forum name more so than their real life name - so much so that's a stretch to link a name to a forum profile.

    Institutionalised, man.

    And after I've now lulled you into this false sense of security, please provide me with your bank details and social security numbers.

    DarkFool is his third or fourth account. I'm pretty sure that at some point, his user name included the name Matt. #knowYourHistory #introducingHashTagsToTerraArcanum

    Don't forget Silvio_Arjunza, Spamminister, Darkchylde, Twillights_Hammer I think (one of the orcish clans in Warcraft at any rate) and possibly a few others. Banning DF was like a game of popamole back in the day.

    EDIT: I just realized we don't have the old smileys anymore!

    You got most of them. Well done. :)

    Also, Spamminister, iirc, wasn't actually the name of an account I created? I believe that was an account I created that was renamed after it got banned... or it got renamed, and then I got banned. It's been a decade or so, I can't recall.

    Could be, but unless memory fails me, Spamminister was one of your sock puppets which I detected within a few posts. Your writer's voice was always distinctive enough. :)

    It was recogised by the word "tyme". Also did not you change one account name, because of you have broke up with your girlfriend or something?

    I'm amazed you remember that, Arthgon.

    Yeah. My original account used a handle that my then-girlfriend and I shared (we both wrote online under pseudonyms, and used the same last name, with different "first" names). We broke up, and she went berserk, insisting that I rename myself everywhere, and not use that handle anymore. Since I was trying to fix things with her, I relented and changed it.

    Kind of weird that your girlfriend would want to post under "Matt", but okay.
