I tried. Problem. How do I join the FAF Discord??

[bofhlusr]

Hi @strydxr, I don't understand. Yes, I know the link DOES expire. I used it quickly but I still keep getting the same error message.

Also, your statement about banning this guy, might that be in reference to me?? If it's in reference to me, I don't understand. Why would you like me banned? I haven't done or said anything wrong. Kindly clarify. Thank you.

Edit;
For what it's worth: I'm a member in good standing at the Sanctuary and The LOUD Project channels too. I've given no one a reason to complain. In fact, I've made donations so they know my real name.

And, I just checked my account at Discord:

1. I'm unsure how this error forms, I can look into this quickly.

2. it's a general joke made by a few friends of mine, it appears under all of my posts, so no, it's not about you.

try this and let me know

@strydxr thank you for the reply. I visited the link you provided and read the entire post. It suggested one option which is to use a vpn and I do. The IP address changes each time I turn on my computer.

The post in the link also mentioned something about having a minimum age requirement which is unlikely that FAForever would have one, and besides, I'm also a senior citizen and retired.

Additionally, I also tried logging in by using "incognito" mode (I use Microsoft's Edge browser) but I get the same error.

One suggestion was to use another email and create another account, but I'd rather not have two accounts in Discord since I'm trying to simplify everything and prefer not to have yet another login/password pair.

Hopefully, you have other suggestions. I've been using Supreme Commander since almost forever (when it first came out) as a replacement for the Red Alert Yuri's Revenge game. I'm looking forward to Sanctuary, and I'm currently playing Warno and re-visitng FAF again. I still like FAF. It's still the only true RTS especially with the M28 AI in my opinion. If only FAF didn't shoot at solid objects, FAF would be close to perfect.

This guy is so toxic. Why is he writing under every one of his posts to get someone banned?!

I have tested the official link with Firefox and the invitation works as expected. The link is valid. Try another browser, another Discord account, or contact Discord support.

@magge Thank you for your reply. I tried another browser as you suggested but it didn't help. I still can't log in. The message I'm getting is: "Email is already registered".

I've exchanged email with Discord's tech support. Their last message to me yesterday is embedded below.

I can't find the contact info for the admin for the FAForever Discord server. Do you (or anyone) have this info?

Your Discord account has already been banned for quite some time because it was used to spread advertising links.

I have unbanned the account in question and urge you to ensure that your account is secure. If you wish to review the chat evidence, please create a moderation ticket on FAF Discord and we will provide it.

@magge I'm in... all good now. Thank you!

I changed my password after coming across this post today. An interesting post from "Jip". This was probably why the account was banned.

@bofhlusr I thought we were talking about discord account.
FAF account and discord accounts are separate from each other, and that Jip's post is talking about FAF accounts

Would it surprise you that lots of people use the password for both?

This post is deleted!

Yup, that was my mistake. But like everyone else, who also have many accounts, I too have LOTS of userID /password pairs

I used to manage a 300+ workstation and servers running mission-critical apps for a very large financial institution. From home, to get into mainframes in data centers in another state remotely I had to login to 9 different pc/servers/firewalls: passwords to 1) login to employer supplied pc at home 2) remote to my local pc from home, 3) password for pc, 4) local network 5) local servers, 6) local legacy app 7) firewall to data center out-of-state, 8.) network. 9) app in data center. And, each one had to be changed exactly every 30 days, requiring 12 unique characters with words not in the dictionary and you can't use the last 10 passwords!! It was a nightmare! I did this one or twice weekly for troubleshooting for 10+ years.

Unfortunately, this was and is unavoidable and is the world we live in but still, I haven't given up trying to simplify everything as much as possible which is why I prefer to have just one FAForever account.
