Discord said:
"All-in-one voice and text chat for gamers that's free, secure, and works on both your desktop and phone."

Note: check your rank on here if it is registered you will have Guest rank on Discord (Basic rights to move around). You can contact message me, Irathi, ShiftyFred or dnaRIP. They can also be reached on Discord, and we will sort it any issues.

10 Second guide

Copy the server's invite URL: https://discord.gg/EQmDFzZTeF

  1. Sign in to https://www.discordapp.com.
  2. Click Login on the top right of the page and sign in.
  3. Click the + icon.
  4. Click Join a Server.
  5. Paste the invite URL.
  6. Click Join.
  7. Click Associate with Discord by going to this link: https://brtd.net/account/connected-accounts/
  8. Click Authorise on the discord page**
  9. Fill your password for BRTD.net and Click Associate.


Note: once correctly connected, you can then use the desktop client.

Note:
I have set the minimum rank to be a Guest on the discord server if you have connected your account to Discord. So if you have just registered rank, you will be just a guest on Discord. Only PM, any of the officers above, to get your rank adjusted.

if you no permission on the BRTD Discord server Please follow this guide :
  1. Make sure you are signed in on the web version of Discord before associating.
  2. Dis-associate your account with brtd.net
  3. Sign into your proper discord account once that is done,
  4. Re-associate your account on BRTD.net
You should then have the correct permissions
