#AbusedByDiscord campaign
On January 11th 2021, Spike Viper's Discord server was removed by the moderation team.
Several tweets [3][4][5] were made with the hashtag #AbusedByDiscord and Spike rallied his community to spread it on Twitter.
A video was released ("My Community was #AbusedByDiscord" [6]), which presents three main theories on why their server was removed:
- The moderation team at Discord would prefer to reduce their workload (from dealing with the issues being reported from their server) by just removing the server permanently.
- They started building an alternative chat platform ("Valour") and subsequently got banned. Though it is noted that their Valour Discord server was not banned. (Editor's Note: This is definitely not a valid theory as both Revolt and Fosscord continue to operate Discord servers without any issue.)
- Discord had some sort of connection with the doxxer.
This campaign was used to help promote this platform, shortly after Spike also livestreamed Valour development with an overlay "#abusedbydiscord"[7].
