Several '''Discord Nukes''' have taken place over the course of Aurora. A discord nuke, for the purposes of this article, will be classified as an event where one or more people purposefully delete/ban large amounts of the discord, for the goal of harming the server without approval from the leadership of said discord.
Several '''Discord Nukes''' have taken place over the course of Aurora. A discord nuke, for the purposes of this article, will be classified as an event where one or more people purposefully delete/ban large amounts of the discord, for the goal of harming the server without approval from the leadership of said discord. Reasons vary, though most often they are because of wars, deep internal disputes, or in some cases, just for shits and giggles.

==[[Aurora:Cascadia|Cascadian]] Discord Nuke==
On July 22nd, 2024, the Cascadian discord was nuked by Texas. This was because Cascadia and Texas were at war in a war known as the Great North American War. After a Texan was accidentally given admin by the President of Cascadia at the time, they deleted a majority of channels and kicked/banned around 100 members. Several channels though, survived including several important channels like passed-laws and passed-resolutions. The reason for this is that the Texans were banned by server owner [[SayerQT]] before they could finish the nuke. Additionally, the server was renamed to 'TEXAS VICTORY' and an announcement was made by the Texans declaring victory over Cascadia. The discord was later rebuilt by the Cascadian leadership, notably [[Dracnoian]] and is now fully functional. <br>

== "The Global Chat" Podcast Nuke ==
Article last updated on October 8th, 2025
On August 9, 2026, members of the nation of Australia nuked the discord for "The Global Chat", a podcast started by DekuFullCowling, dedicated to EarthMC. By the time of the nuke, he has since quit EarthMC and had passed down the discord server to GuyWithALife. Eventually, on the day on the nuking, a couple members of Australia, likely including nahember and Nearings(formerly Panth_rr), mass banned members of the discord, bringing the member count from 250~ to under 30, although the content in the discord was left relatively unharmed. The motives aren't known at the time of writing, though Deku, the founder of the podcast, suffered a major scandal around the time of his quitting, which may be related.
