in the forums I've seen posts regarding (and you'll have to forgive me if I've forgotten specifics) both people complaining about the treatment they recieved at the hands of those from the discord groups and well as those from the discord groups bragging about the nasty things they did to people outside their group. Moderating the discord group doesn't help when people use that as a shell to get away with nasty behavior. People who think "I'm in a group, so the group will support me doing X because we don't like that this other person is here" at which point you then have to have the person not in the discord group joining to try to report someone who is... which brings me back to my other point that for some people, getting into that group is a very difficult or undesirable thing, and the person or people who committed the bad behavior get away with what they did.

Also it's hard to trust a group to police itself. I don't trust that of the government or corporations, and I definitely don't trust that of random player collectives.
