Sonic 2 Movie Discord Channel - Give Me Chaos!

So, on Monday the Sonic the Hedgehog Movie social team launched an official Discord server, ahead of a possible trailer release later this week.

There was a special incentive to get involved quickly; a “special role” in the Discord server, apparently. Thousands of fans dive-bombed the server, and utter chaos ensued.

Channels were shut down, a person who was (but is no longer) associated with the server ended up being an NFT bro, and the general chat was filled with crazy talk, slurs and other nasty things. Even now, things are a little shaky, but hopefully those that run the server are doing their best to clean house.

As suspected, the Discord was a preamble to a trailer reveal, because on both the server and on Twitter the official movie team posted this:

Hopefully things are smooth sailing on the Discord channel from here on out, but I noticed there wasn’t a lot of chat about it on the forums so wanted to have some kind of recap on here to document it all for the years to come. 😄

That's the thing about Discord. You got to be careful when you asking loads of people to join like that.  Discord tends to be full of people who make a lot of offensive comments and if you don't have the right bots or people to monitor the server, then things get messed up pretty quickly. Let's hope that they have the right people to fix all of this before it's all said and done.

Yeah, I hear it's usually best to avoid joining an "official" server for anything on Discord, at least if said something is made from a huge corporation.
