    They banned Discord back when it was called FFXIVAPP before the rebrand and change in focus to all games instead of only XIV, I don't see what the issue would be with giving it the boot now. Frankly, they should have started handing out bans for Discord links in PF/chat when those were being bandied about for RMT and ERP purposes.

    There's some truth to what they said but it's not entirely accurate. It used to be called discordapp and that was also the URL. On the original homepage for Discord back in 2015 they had FFXIV logos splashed around.

    Yeah, they're misremembering some factoids about Discords history.

    Discord was developed by an FFXIV player who also made Guildwork, which is an app very similar to XivApp. I assume that's where the confusion is from. Discord was created as a disposable voicechat, borne from frustration with trying to communicate in raids on 14.
