Beluga’s Discord server is known for being extremely toxic now to understand why let me tell you what events led up to beluga’s admins being warned for dehumanizing or discriminatory content by Discord now this is the same with every video I make but do not harass the Beluga staff team so back on track on January 25th one of the admins Benji sends a message in the staff random chat now the staff random chat is accessible to people who have been stabbed before so retired staff and current staff so a lot of people can see this message and Benji pinged everyone and said it is now against the rules to be gay if you are gay you have to decide if you are the bottom or top if you’re the bottom you are now a girl in a straight relationship this will be added to the guidelines now this could be taken in One of two ways it can be seen as a really edgy satire joke that just really shouldn’t have been sent in the first place or it could be seen as straight up homophobia and the issue with this is that a whole bunch of the other admins Chimed in as well with the same message Richard Sanchez saying the same thing Rand chaos and Ken all copy and pasting the same message and someone found this to be quite bad so they decided to talk to the community manager of the Beluga staff team now the Beluga staff team is Split up in this hierarchy when you have an issue with all the admins saying a homophobic joke then you need to talk to the community manager and our community manager Blackwater cat was contacted what Benji said yesterday definitely should not have been said regardless if It was a joke or not and in a private Channel anyone who sees that message will think that bulu gang is full of homophobic staff which may put the server’s reputation down and beluga’s with it I’m pretty sure that this was a joke but it was a crap one Benji pushed The limits and unfortunately all the other admins besides you participated by resending the same message if any member said anything like that they’d be banned on the spot Benji and the other admins are not following basic server rules even if that is a joke and therefore should be treated like any other member Regardless of if it was outside public channels or not so this is a pretty bad event and they got reported for it and it was all silent on the Western Front it sounded like nothing was happening this report was going nowhere but kaboom baby discord sends out this warning Hello Discord is focused on maintaining a safe and secure environment for our community we found your account to be in violation of of our terms of service or Community guidelines as a result we’re issuing this morning for the following reason your account posted dehumanizing or discriminatory content for incited Violence towards an individual or community based on their real or perceived membership to a protected group and there’s a whole bunch of information I’m going to gloss over if this Behavior continues you may be banned permanently but with that morning all heck Breaks Loose it turns out that Staff chats have been privated and a duplicate has been made we now have staff random too staff chat 2 and mod chat too it turns out that Benji the original person that sent this homophobic message was trying to cover up their tracks and private these channels and make new ones now this Cover-up gets even worse because Benji actually demoted the people that reported this message for being homophobic and it continues on because Benji makes this announcement at everyone staff channels have been archived without going into greater detail some former staff decided out of frustration or lack of progression in Staff to the admin position have decided to start reporting old messages of mod members admins and other people who aren’t even here anymore out of safety for your accounts and are ourselves we have archived the old chats making it so that they can’t have any messages be Reported anymore and they will only be viewable by admin plus now it should be obvious that this message is complete bogus so as we know already the people that reported this message as homophobic have been demoted they got their roles removed and it turns out that we have Another character Pat which I’ll talk about a little bit later they list all the people that were demoted and they said this person this person this person and this person have unfortunately left the event team so no they didn’t get demoted because we’re trying to cover up A mistake we made they just left the event team and this is only the first taste of Pat you’re gonna get in this video because later on you’ll see how much of a piece of work they are now while this cover-up was happening someone actually messaged Blackwater cat Removing our role simply because we reported homophobic comments is absolutely disgusting the only things we reported were the messages which you guys said it is now against the rules to be gay I’m not trying to escalate this further however demoting us and deleting staff chats is just gonna make you look Worse and that is 100 right now Blackwater cat does respond by saying that they were at work when the this all happened and their opinion is is that reporting and spreading messages from staff chats before going to beluga and getting a response from him is not something we want because we really want To make sure the staff chats are safe for all retired staff members I’m sure you are aware that Beluga does not often respond to his messages hence why we messaged you and I even got another person to message beluga and messaged him myself on an ALT to ensure he got my Message it’s really hard to get Beluga to respond and you and I both know that Additionally you guys do not have the power to tell us when we can report actions Discord expects all users to report any found activity which could be breaking their terms of service immediately stuff like this should not Be left as they can be deleted and then without the message links nothing can be done now Blackwater cat does respond but it’s only talking about how this person got demoted for no reason people wanted to figure out what is going to happen with Benji so someone reaches out to Rick and says is anything going to happen to Benji or is this just going to be dismissed as his 67th mistake and eighth major mistake you said that you accepted Community manager to make change do the right thing and Rick responded back saying Beluga has responded bluga has told us that Benji Went too far with this and he could be demoted but the thing is Benji has ownership to the server ban appeals and server guidelines and the server spreadsheet if we demote him he may lose his head again and screw everything up like two other people that kind of like Messed up the server which could create another whole set of problems and again he won’t give up the ownerships that easily so right now they’re in a little bit of a standoff now Rick has a mighty plan that’s definitely not gonna fail what we can do is we can tell Pat and Ran to make a whole new bot in a different Discord server and after they clear out all the existing appeals they can implement it and Rick says we will shift the server and Benji will be demoted after we shift the server an Immaculate plan but the person talking To Rick says you do realize that by leaving him with admin permissions you are just opening the door for Benji to abuse admin perms now that he knows he’s going to get demoted but Rick turns back on the Mission Impossible Spy music he doesn’t know it yet it will be told that The ban appeals has a malfunction now here’s the sad thing this actually hasn’t happened yet so we’ll see well Benji realize that he’s getting demoted and wreak absolute havoc on the Discord server well I don’t really know we’ll have to see but I want to talk about two People Pat and Rick who are people that are not the nicest to say the least Pat is a character with a pretty well known history in fact here’s a message back from August 17 2022 and Pat says at mod and at helper look in staff news and this message was edited thankfully we Have message logs because let’s read this oh my God this message is pretty brutal at moderator at helper why did you even apply for mod because right now to me everyone is just mod just for the role so they can join a voice call without member limit or talk an Exclusive chat no one freaking moderates and then staff complain the server is unmoderated and now people are retiring and going on break left and right why is no one moderating and I know there are mods online but not AFK because there are mods and voice call an exclusive Chat the rant keeps continuing but they end out the rant with this we are one of the freaking biggest servers on Discord with one of the biggest staff teams and yet the least moderation and someone sends them message and Pat still angry says what the f is wrong with you this Guy is extremely toxic if your staff aren’t doing anything step one isn’t to just yell at them and treat them like crap but I guess Pat didn’t get the memo in fact Pat did get the memo about everything because I searched up their most recent messages and as you can see They say the arsler they also use this word which is a big No-No and congratulations Pat guess what you are the winner of a new Discord warning because this language falls under the same your account posted dehumanizing or discriminatory content and the bad admins don’t stop there we have Rick and Rick is a community manager so top of the food chain and let me just show you this is in the uh the Beluga handbook using gay as an insult is bad and our first message from Rick is saying gay equals man arsler in the staff random chat but Rick isn’t just homophobic it Keeps on going with racism this is your pilot Muhammad bin I’m not going to pronounce that speaking this flight is sponsored by bombs please check out the new flavor of bombs Burgers yikes that’s all I can say yikes now I presented you this information so you could make up Your own opinion but there are a couple things that I want you to take away first off if your admins are sending jokes like this I seriously have my doubts that they will actually deal with a situation like this homophobic joke with actual care and seriousness and Another thing if you’re admins the role models of the server are spewing this hatred and toxicity then people in your community will follow and that’s why the server is toxic at the end of the day and the final thing I want to say is that personally I commend Beluga for Their hard work but here’s the thing you are still responsible for your Discord server whether you like it or not so I really hope that this is a wake-up call and that this kind of pushes the server to improve and be less toxic and just For the final time I want to make it clear please do not contact or harass the Beluga staff team I personally will check in once in a while and just see if things have improved and if they haven’t well there’s always a part two I can make hopefully not though anyways that’s The end of the video I love you

Let me reiterate, do not harass Beluga staff.
Beluga’s Discord server has been known as a toxic mess for a while. Ex staff members complain about the harassment from admins and conveniently we get a glimpse into one of these events. From racism to homophobia, there is a collection of bad apples that ruin the whole bunch. And with someone as busy as Beluga behind the wheel, this ship is steering into an iceburg that’s visible from miles away.
I’m supposed to write stuff for this description and talk about discord servers, beluga and all that jazz. It’s midnight before this video comes out and I’m kinda tired. Just enjoy the fancy edits that pop up because they took longer than I thought to do.
