  How did you have to prove your id? It was wrong on you being underage?

    Very much wrong. I had to write my username (with the numbers too) next to me. Fun fact: I could not access my Discord, so could not see my exact username, so a friend saved me over Reddit, by sending me my username. I also needed my ID next to me, I had to take a picture. I of course, got the news that my personal information was leaked from support, some time later.

    How nice.

      Jesus, I wish you hadn’t done that, it just encourages them. Isn’t it convenient they never promise not to use this personal information for commercial purposes. Not that a promise means dick with these parasites running these places.

      With like twitter, they allowed influence agents to run amok and then when they get flak for it the solution is to demand commercially valuable information from users to prove whom they are.

      So they made you present your username, your ID, and your own face?

      Next time, doctor an ID with the details of like Pharoh Ramsey or something, I saw someone doing that for an ID thing.
