This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well yeah, because it's not a forum.

It's increasing taking up the role of one. And I'm sad about it.

I might stop being sad if its forum features become more used and Discord massively improved discoverability, but for now it sucks for people googling problems.

My rule of thumb is, if it says, "Join our Discord," I move on. I'll only join a Discord if I want to discuss something, not if I want answers to questions.

That's cool in principle, but what if I actually want help?

I just look up YT videos or find a wiki, and 90% of the time I can find my answer that way. It's a lot nicer than trying to figure out where they stuck something on Discord...
