You do not have to read all of this Q&A as part of the mandatory rules in our Light Shines Discord Server. However, these Q&A provide additional fine points for what we manage in our Discord server if such case arises.

___________________________________________________

(1.) Who to contact if there are questions, issues, or someone is violating rules in this server?

Contact StanleyQ6309 on DM (Direct Message), even if he is on "Do Not Disturb". If he is not active at all, you may message another Discord mod named Eppsilon7.
StanleyQ6309 is usually active all day between 9:00pm ET to 12:00am ET
(At GMT+9 Tokyo time = 10am to 1pm approximately).
If however, he does not respond back to you after a couple hours, then you can not message him and he is very busy. As a result of this, please do not spam him.

___________________________________________________

(2.) What are the punishments for violating the rules? If I get banned, can I come back?

- 1st + 2nd time: Warning with no punishment
- 3rd + 4th time: 10-24 hour timeout
- 5th+ time: Permanent ban

Violations on the number of times are calculated based on the same specific rule you broke. However, failure to follow the 1st rule may lead to a Permanent ban regardless of no warnings. If you are banned, you may visit stanleyq6309.wixsite.com/lobby/discord-contact and file a ticket for a chance to return back. You can find it after clicking the Discord Invitation button on the website and scroll all the way at the bottom. Alt accounts will also be banned immediately.

(3.) How do I or another person get invited into this server?

Visit stanleyq6309.wixsite.com/lobby and find a discord button below on the home page to enter back in the Discord Server. As of now, it is open to the public and we welcome newcomers to enter, as long as they follow the rules.

(4.) Do all video links can only be posted on the #videos channel?

 

This specific rule is only applied to those that wish to post their own promotional videos like your recordings/stream of a game or such. Outside of that, video links can be posted onto other channels as long as they are on topic of that channel.

​

(5.) What is the Event Category in this server?

The Event Category rewards people for taking part in our Discord Server. You can earn tickets simply by chatting or participating in Stanley’s custom events, which can be traded for prizes like exclusive roles. Equip the Event Pass role in the Channels & Roles section to get started.
There will also be a channel in that category where you can play with commands of BGbot and with other bots.

___________________________________________________

(6.) What is the BGbot in the discord server? When is it active?

The BGbot is a Discord bot made by StanleyQ6309 to enjoy some of his custom commands you can play with. It is however only active rarely (typically when Stanley's computer is typically on). If you wish to enjoy the BGbot commands, just ping StanleyQ6309 when he is active.

(7.) What if I want to post a photo that belongs in more than one channel or it technically belongs in multiple channels?

You can post it in any channel as long as it’s on topic of it. You can post the same on 2 channels if you want, but never more than that. If you are confused to know where to post it and just posting only once, you can pick whichever it favors. If you prefer StanleyQ6309 suggestion, prioritize from the top channel to lowest.

(9.) Why are there different art channels?

Different art channels are made to divide into different sections for artists. These are broken down from draft art, finished art by the artist, and another being finished art from other artists. The following art channels are:
 
- 📝designer-chat🖌    (Post your own art progress.)
- 💻your-finish-artwork    (Post your own finished art.)
- 🎈art-and-cosplay    (Post finished art from other artists. Cosplay pictures can also be posted here.)
- 📁art-resources    (Post art references that is useful for artists.)

___________________________________________________

(10.) Are there self-assigned roles and do they have purpose? 

In the Channels & Roles section (located at the very top of the Discord server),
You will be able to checkmark certain roles by answering questions you would like to see. Most roles when equipped will provide DM alerts for certain gacha games while some others will hide off channels that you do not like to see. You can un-checkmark your answers if you want to undo it at anytime.
The roles are:

- Promotions = (Receive Alerts for any random Promotions)
- Hu Tao’s Spirit = (Genshin Impact Role for Code Alerts)
- Fu Xuan’s Dimension = (Honkai Star Rail Role for Code Alerts)
- Mika's Halo = (Blue Archive Role with no purpose besides showing you're a fan)
- Keykid’s Book = (Access to view past KH UX/DR channels and Dissidia Opera Omnia channels)
- No Art = (Remove all Art channels)
- No Spoilers = (Remove Leaks + Spoilers from Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail)
- No Genshin = (Remove all Genshin channels)
- No TCG Genshin = (Remove just Genshin’s TCG Info Cards)
- No Star Rail = (Remove all Star Rail channels)
- Event Pass = (Access to view all Light Shines Events)
- NSFW = (Access to NSFW channel) [Must be age 18+]

(11.) Why can I not see certain channels?

In the same the Channels & Roles section,
1. Click on: “Browser Channels” (“All Channels on mobile”) at the very top.
2. You will be able to checkmark and uncheck the channels you like to only see.

Alternatively, you can go our Discord Server Settings (by opening the dropdown menu via top left) and checkmark "Show All Channels" to view every channel available excluding any roles equipped that block certain channels.

___________________________________________________

(12.) What NSFW art is classified as NSFW and what does not?

Any of the explicit content that displays Nipples, Genitals, or deep explicit focus on sexual Body Parts will be classified as NSFW. NSFW art/cosplay that are censored (such as showing pixels on the mentioned stuff) will generally must also follow this rule.

Any mild NSFW such as characters that are mostly clothed (including Swimsuits), no exposed sexual anatomy displayed, and those that are safe for most audiences are fine to be posted outside of the NSFW channel.

For a brief context, this particular rule will follow the audience of Blue Archive fans.
