I am not giving you my mobile number to join Discord.  So I guess I will be out of the loop on the game.
Grind away, Kixeye want you to coin to stay in game.

    The mobile number is not requires by us.. However it may be required by discord. This is for two factor authentication and is meant to protect your discord account.

    To echo Darkshadows, that is not something KIXEYE has access to or are asking for. That would be something only Discord would use.

    No. If you violated the rules already, transitioning from here does not get you a get out of jail card.

    I went to join discord, but I'm not so sure about the info it's requesting from us. Phone number and e-mail? What the hell for? What type of security does Discord have? With all the hacking going on, I sure don't want my personal info out there... We all know you say it's out of your hands, that this is Discord asking for it...but I don't know Discord... Hell, we don't even know what type of security Kixeye has..yet, we give you our info, so that we can buy gold...when we want...and taking a chance of getting the CC hacked. Taking a chance with Kixeye, which at times I question its honesty...as it is, makes me even more wary about going to Discord. But let me ask. Why the move Kixeye? You haven't really been up front with that. I'm sure we players would like to know the REAL reason behind this sudden move... After all, the last e-mail I received from you all stated, "we really do care about our players". Yet, I've yet to receive the gold I lost in the glitch, building Bastions. And yes, I sent in ticket, long time ago...and saved it... So much for carrying about us players... since I haven't even seen a response...

    By the way, I see the label "Greenhorn" under my handle. Not quite, Kixeye. I had to leave to fight a real war. I was gone for 10 years plus. Before that, I had been playing for a few years...and back then, Kixeye seemed better. At least better than I have witnessed, since I started playing again...

    Greenhorn is based on the amount of threads and replies you have made, not about You in a personal way

    which is too bad .... would be awesome to be a Unicorn Overlord in real life

    I also lost gold with the bastion bug that came out with cc18 and have sent several tickets and they refuse to refund me too and also just put my tickets as solved when it most definitely is not solved

    First off, the company that gave you that phone has most likely already sold that info because thats what companies do nowadays, so Im not understanding the argument on that front.

    For game info, you seemed to have not read the whole post. Heres part of it:
     

    "On November 15th this transition will be complete and the Discord Forums will fully replace the KIXEYE web forums.In addition to this working like normal forum posts, these forums also incorporate all the other features of Discord, such as tagging, reactions, etc. The best part of it all is that you can seamlessly transition between using the Forums and the rest of Discord chats without having to leave another browser or app. 


    Moving forward, all Release Notes, Briefings, and Game Announcements will be posted on our Support Site, that can be accessed by clicking the “Support” Button on the top bar of the KIXEYE site."

    So essentially, Discord is only if you wanna talk or post; you can get everything else here, still. So...

    i understand majority of ppl playing this game are over 40, most even older, but discord is the future. virtually every game has discord as their primary channel for coomunication and forums. ive been using discord since 2017 and its great and easy to use and safe as well. its more safe giving your phone number or email to discord than facebook

    Discord is an app, and to use it you must give up your personal information, your microphone and camera/video, contacts, etc, etc.....I WILL NOT join Discord for that reason alone, and if Kixeye truly cared about its players, they would NOT be pushing for our privacy to be invaded by unknown entities like Discord. Read the discalimer before you download the app, that says it all, and if you disagree, then you DO NOT CARE ABOUT OUR PRIVACY AND OUR RIGHTS UNDER THE U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.....I mean, we already know kixeye MODS are totally against free speech with all the bans in kix discord.....matter a fact, Drake, why dont you post the number of how many people in just the War Commander community have been banned by current MODS...please post the number so we can see how many people are truly banned from kix discord server. I bet you wont do it, and I understand why, that would expose everything most of us have been saying and already know.

    Its funny cause posting that would not only violate company policy BUT The Privacy Act...

    As Drake stated, when you create an account YOU agree to the TOS, also you receive multiple warnings when you violate the rules before you get Muted .
