•   taah The shady way the discord tos works is troubling and something that could usually get me or Ryan's account suspended, it's a bigger risk then other rules mentions since a minor is involved, Child Protection Laws is what stopping discord from lowering the number and that's something I legit wanna stay away from, last thing I want is to be called up for allowing minors in, we started to only ban people who listed their age, for example, if someone said they are 12, we ban for an year and so on.

    Just something that I don't wanna deal with, I already was contacted by discord for it before and that shit is scary.

  •   erin I had no choice since Ryan wished it to be that way, not throwing him under the bus, God no, but he doesn't like such things there and I listened.

    The more I looked into those laws being enforced the more sick I got of it, I understand that TF is no longer owned by a private person in their own home but a company that is at risk of such law violations, I have no idea how to work it out between making the server actually be a fun server without those stupid laws up my ass then again, it's shady and risky.

    I help run a partnered server and we frankly don't do anything about underage users- it's not our job and discord should be enforcing it better. Discord also does say not to stream copyright laws, and nobody here has said streaming videos from youtube differs from streaming copyrighted content, but apparently you're streaming it as well. To be honest, I don't care, discord TOS can go smd, lol.

  •   taah I legit don't care about those rules or regulations put on us but looking at it from both sides, I rather be on the safe side of things especially with the CPL in place, that shit is scary.

    Discord is no doubt stupid when comes to TOS enforcement reasons why I didn't wanna mention it in the DCP because if they can't enforce their own rules, why should I? Guess I'm only trying to make the big man happy without testing the waters too much.

    I use to be the Staff Manager in a big debate server when stage discovery was a thing, it was around 30,000 members and we didn't enforce anything of what's happening here, I'm looking for ways to go back to just one conduct policy and still be respectful to discord's shitty guidelines.

    i mean, i do that all the time atm lol

    and also, streaming stuff from youtube via discord really shouldn't be an issue -- they're working on a watch2gether thing anyway that's centered around youtube so..

    alternatively, if you want to actually use the YouTube feature, it's available via this bot https://top.gg/bot/830155764865695757 (official site for the bot seems to be non-functional atm) -- it typically will block copyrighted material from being streamed through it.

    The reasoning you provided would be valid if Nick was actually streaming on YouTube, but as Luke cited, the likelihood of the stream actually being on YouTube is extremely low (From Luke himself: this has no bearing on the situation. all we have to confirm this is your word - all you’ve done is say “no I’m innocent I used youtube” but you’ve provided no reason for us to believe so). This isn't even mentioning the possibility of there being pornographic/NSFW scenes in this, which would obviously be a bannable issue by itself.

      simplynick everything has context

    What context is there to justify what you did, or even explain it?

      simplynick I personally have a Netflix account which I can watch the series fully without using youtube or different illegal streaming platforms

    How and why is this relevant to the investigation and situation at all?

    @'phrman' It is not even a case of “he said she said” given we have multiple pieces of evidence to support what we are arguing.

    Took the words right out of my mouth. The evidence provided is so substantial that it's as clear as glass. It's illogical to claim this incident is a case of "he said she said" once there's actual proof towards one side. It's shocking how the Discord Manager thought that it was a good idea to break his own rules and expect to get away scot-free...

    Why do your server's rules matter on TotalFreedom? It's stupid to uphold another community's rules and expectations despite TotalFreedom having its own rules.

      taah not y’all getting mad cus he’s violating discord tos, even a partnered server isnt this strict loll

    I think the majority of us are upset because it shows Nick being hypocritical. Nick has banned users before for violations of copyright and piracy, even stating that Miasmus's ban will be one of the last accepted appeals for copyright infringements. Let's not forget that Nick violated his own rules doing this, showing that he's aware of the consequences for this behavior...

  •   MagAgentV3 No, this is over Nicks hypocritical punishments and outright unfair management of the discord.

    I have seen multiple comments similar to this one that don't add anything to the discussion. If you don't have anything of value to add to this conversation, don't post.

      MagAgentV3 This Is so stupid all of this over two episodes of a show

    This is literally a violation of United States and United Kingdom law. Nick should be held to a higher standard than any past instance because he's literally the manager of the discord, he's meant to know what's against the rules and what's not against the rules.

      MagAgentV3 just let the admins do the work Instead have this big argument over a show

    You're missing the point. This thread was created because the people in power have yet to make a final verdict.

    You're contradicting yourself; is this straight up stupid, or should we let the admins just do their work?

      MagAgentV3 Then let them make that decision

    Clearly you’ve not analysed the thread properly here and went forward with this view of ‘this thread is an expose and has a bunch of writing, let me provide a dumb solution’.

    Given the significant amount of evidence provided, and the significance of the evidence provided, there is little to no reason as to why Nick has not been sanctioned yet. In fact, the ‘little’ reason is what could be undisclosed evidence.

    People want answers, and they’re not getting them, so they’re trying to fight for them. Posts like yours don’t help, at all. If you’d like a thread locked use the allocated feature for that.

    Why not allow input to be provided from regular operators? Surely there shouldn't be any reason to hide people from seeing what's playing out? Transparency is important on this server, right?

    This thread was created to bring a light to Nick's situation, I don't see how it's interfering with the admins' work in any way.

    The point is the original poster (in this case Petya) believed that no sanctions would be put against Nick from management, so he created this thread because the situation should be discussed openly to reach a final decision.

    is this not the the definition of ‘one rule for them one rule for us’

    the only reason I’m investigating this so much is because i want to make clear to the users that it is the same for everyone. i could literally lose my position and shit but i’m still doing this so people know things are fair
