  1. Joined your Discord but was banned by one of your snowflake mods. Simply because I don't believe in pro nouns although if people want to use them. That's their business and I told this idiot that!

    You might want to remove this chap as his views on this topic should have no bearing on your members and goodness knows how many he has removed without you knowing?
