Brainstorming Discourse Communities and Research

The discourse community I will be researching on is the discord community. A youtuber named, Rishab Jain, is trying to show this problem to everyone that has a discord account regardless if you want discord Nitro or not. He is trying to protect people from scammers and trying to help us not to get our accounts hacked. Literally everyone who has a discord account needs to know about this problem because there is not a single person that wants their account to be stolen. There are people that are not cautious enough and just click into the click and the next second their whole account is gone. Your login credentials will be in another person’s hands if you click on a scam link. Some ways to know if the link is a scam or not, you will have to carefully look at the link. A scam link is https://dlscord while the real link is https://discord. There are people that are not aware of it and press on the link and have all their informations leaked to others. Also, the real discord nitro gift tells both the receiver and the sender when will the gift expire. In addition to it, there is a link and a claim button to claim the discord nitro while the scam discord nitro only has the link.

    We should talk about your topic a bit because I’m confused. Your discourse community seems to be Discord users. And your issue seems to be that Discord users are vulnerable to hacking. But you also seem to be addressing Discord users in terms of the audience you want to make aware of the problem. Ideally, the directions for Unit 1 ask that you make an= audience outside your discourse community aware of the issue you are writing about and that you have a reason for it. Perhaps your audience is Discord users but then what is your discourse community? What would you call the community that is brining awareness to the hacking issue and trying to offer solutions?
