Schizoid Arena is a big low-moderated discord server founded by Pathseeker
History
"Manji Symbol Reversed" (resolves to the Swastika used by Nazis) which was the former name for the server, was founded by PATHSEEKER on August 10th of 2022. A pushing factor for the decision was him disliking the way other communities were ran - often filled with clutter, or mod abuse even in communities that claim to allow everything. Moreover, he wanted to invite everyone in one place but didn't want to contribute to communities he doesn't have full control over.
The server got renamed to "Schizoid Arena" in a few days, and Edik was the one who had come up with the name.
The founder and initial members came from xat.com but as a lot of xat users are mostly braindead losers who are too traumatized to move onto something new, they slowly abandoned the server once it started getting new people.
The discord custom invite link vanity 'xat' was chosen because it was concise, had some marketing power to it and it was also snatched from under an alcoholic druggie who spent his entire life on xat.com
Policies
The server always had a very strict no mod abuse policy, which would make it a true 'uncensored' (relatively to discord's standards) server. The founder autistically enforces this policy even when it doesn't necessarily benefit him, having demoted some admins for small infractions and deals with abuse cases to them if they arise, regardless of who commits them.
It also has no hoisted or custom roles unless people pay for them on a monthly-basis, because he believes in minimalism and to avoid cases of favoritism where one person would have a higher role than the other, etc.
As the admins don't get into what people do in privacy or other servers, the server has received a lot of criticism from some people as Pathseeker refuses to ban anyone that doesn't explicitly break his rules in the server, such as known pedophiles and child porn posters.
Ironically enough, the founder of the server is a nazi sympathizer who believes in censorship and authoritarianism as long as it's done his way.
Advertising
The admins advertise the server aggressively, raiding and mass DMing servers with bait shock value advertisements. This method has worked out quite well for the server as it managed to amount 5K members and an active community.
