In order to reduce griefing and spam in our Discord without forcing everyone to have a verified phone number on their account, we require new members to validate themselves as a /tg/station player before entering our Discord.

In-game method

  1. Connect to one of our game servers and click on the OOC tab.
  2. Click the Link Discord Account button.
  3. Get your Discord UserID and copy/paste it into the box.
  4. Go back to Discord and send !tgs YOUR_BYOND_USERNAME verify as a message.
  5. Return to the game server and click on Verify Discord Account, also found under the OOC tab.
  6. If everything worked correctly you'll now be able to see all of our channels.

Whats my Discord user ID?

You can get your Discord user ID with one of a few ways. (Main Page: How to find your Discord User ID)

Is there another way?

Not yet, but we are working on providing a way for those with byond-linked forum accounts to auto verify without having to do so in-game.
