Just because you don’t see something doesn’t mean it’s not there.

For people who actually think the Vex Girls discord is a bad thing.

1. Its a safe place for girls to open up why is it a bad thing.
2. The more people inspired to continue to stem the better.
3. @Unionjackjz1 the logo is kinda sick not going to lie.

I don’t think anyone thinks its bad, just not exactly necessary? but it is good.

Julia from @929D made the logo. It looks great as the server icon

Does anyone actually think the Vex Girls discord is a bad thing?

After coaching a few all girls teams and seeing some of what they went through at tournaments…this is welcome

Is it this bad in VRC? My MS IQ team this year was mostly girls and … wait a sec, we actually have had one incident that I have unfortunately only learned about a day later…

There are a lot of other places where oppression can occur that aren’t this forum, such as at worlds, in local competitions, on literally any other social media website, or via text or calling harassment. Nobody that would want to say something controversially against a minority would post it here, unless they lack the most basic intelligence that comes with being alive. Even then, they just get deleted. There are far less people watching and filtering posts on other sites, so it is much more common outside.
In fact, that’s one reason why the discord is so important, because discussion of these actions are hard because they usually go under the radar.

In this case isn’t this already a safe space?

I had one of my teams with primarily girls come and tell me of a situation they wanted me to resolve. Some people just don’t know how to take direct cues.

Hi everyone!

Little update on the VEX Girls Discord.

We have revamped the server a bit. We have hopefully made it easier to navigate, as we have less channels. I have also invited friends that will be assisting with robotics. We hope that these changes will help the server thrive.

When you join, please send a message in #verify containing your name and team number.
Example:

Jess, 21S

or

Jordan, BNS

.
We will not verify you until you do this! This is to make sure you are a real person and not a troll.

Hope to see you there!
