      That looks like screenshot from any user to me. The highlighting is the same as me taking a screenshot of a comment where I @ someone else. It also looks the same when I see someone else’s comment @ someone else.

      Edit: thank you all for down voting me for admitting that I didn’t notice the difference in the background and replied thinking they might be referring to the name highlighting. Clearly I must have been disagreeing with the comment I replied to and not just trying to learn something!

          I don’t worry about it, just bugs me when people get downvoted for being unaware of something and admitting to it. “Here’s why I don’t understand” tends to be inferred to mean disagreement.

        dont worry about downvotes, everybody will at some point be downvoted, valid reason or not. I know it feels bad, but everyone makes mistakes and it’s totally normal to be wrong sometimes ❤️
        Lemmy doesn’t have karma for a reason :)

        PS, it might be best etiquette to strike out your text like this so people understand that what you were saying was incorrect (2 of the ~ symbol on either side)

        But that’s not what it looks like to you. It’s what you remembered it looking like. If it looked like that to you, you’d have a completely different experience of discord than anyone else. I didn’t downvote or anything, but you basically said “you’re wrong”, but they were correct.

        Your comment could potentially have mislead others. People downvoted so it was less likely to be seen. When you noticed the downvotes, you acted like you were getting downvoted for admitting to an oversight. Even now you’re acting like you were just trying to “learn something” and pretending like you were never actually suggesting they were incorrect. It’s ok to just say you were mistaken. You weren’t downvoted for saying you were mistaken, you were downvoted for being wrong and potentially downvoted more for then complaining about downvotes.

          No, I did NOT say that nor did I imply that. It is also pretty fucking arrogant of you to asssume everyone notices and remembers everything. Fuck, I even posted screen shots to show I tried to check to see what I was missing!

            So you just responded for fun? You thought they were 100% accurate and you posted screenshots just to agree with them?

            I did not assume everyone notices or remembers everything and even if I did how would that even relate to arrogance? I said it’s ok to be mistaken. You seem to be unable to process that. Really, good luck, because it seems like you’re going to continue to have a rough go of it.

    I do feel bad for people born in the year 1488 though, their usernames look really suspicious.

    Gee, I wonder if Aryansoldier1488 knows if 1488 is a dog whistle for Nazis? I’d hate for Aryansoldier to get caught up in this. It was probably a random number.

        As a radical centrist, I must find any possible reason that someone would stick an obvious dogwhistle in their name besides being a Nazi. We can’t just go assuming the blatantly obvious.

    Just the number? The Aryan Soldier part is fine? Dude there’s no redeeming part of that name. It translates as IamANaziIAmANazi.

    I hope he gets messaged every hour about how his name might draw the wrong crowd.

    Also that he needs to take pills for a bigger penis.

    ETA: And that he might be able to profit from Nigerian princes needing some money laundered through the United States.

    Also he should try EA’s FIFA offerings… okay, I’m getting carried away. No one deserves that.
