It's gonna redirect you to our Discord server. Wanna talk in real time with some like-minded fellows about the mod you're playing? This is the place to do it!
We've got channels for our most popular mods, and a lot of our modders frequent it as well, so if you're looking to have a chat with one of them, this is the place to do it. The voice channels are really great also.
We really don't have a whole lot of rules for the Discord. They're pretty much the same as the site.
I'm just going to quote part of the forum rules on this one, because it's pretty much exactly the same.

Rule One — Be Respectful
This website does not belong to you. You are a guest here. This is a private site. We are not a "for profit" business and we are not funded by any governments. This means we run the site the way we see fit. We are not obligated to observe anyone's notions of "free speech" or even "fairness." We try of course, but we have our limits. Generic trolling will get you banned. If you must flame, be smart or creative about it, and make sure the flame was warranted to begin with. Generally, you'll never go wrong by being nice, polite and mature.
Think before you chime in with your opinion on a given post or series of posts. There will usually be some history behind a given exchange in our forums, so take the time to observe what might really be going on and put the conversation into context before you decide who's "right" and who's "wrong." Above all, take into account who is posting — context is everything. Joining a conversation with grossly uninformed opinions will only make you look dumb and irritate the heck out of the people who do know what's going on.

Aside from that, just listen to the Moderators. Their word is law in the Discord.
Discord Moderators
These are your moderators. As the above states, a Moderator's word is law in Discord, but with that being said we're generally pretty lenient. If you ever have an issue with a Moderator, you're free to PM an Overlord or myself. We're really not that bad, I promise.
Of course, with rules you must have a way to enforce them, right? Well, here's where our bans come into play. We only ban after warning you multiple times, and a ban always follows a kick. So, if you've been kicked (and it wasn't a joke), that's a pretty good indicator that you're on thin ice, so a repeat offense within a short period may likely mean a ban, either temporarily or permanently.
Below is a list of banned users along with who banned them, and why.
Ban List
- enter a username [Advent] - Being a jackass in #smrpg-a and #development // first offense was a kick, second was a ban
- itoikenza [Hart-Hunt] - Being outright toxic in every single conversation he's in
- kenmacawili [Advent] - Mac/Azza
If you do find yourself banned, you can always contest it. While you probably did something to deserve it, we want to be fair and provide a level of accountability for both moderators and users of both Insane Difficulty and the Discord.
If you'd like to contest your ban, contact a Moderator or higher of Discord via PM on the site.
And that's pretty much it! Enjoy yourselves, guys!
