Posted on September 8, 2020 by Alexandra

Hey there Ice Warriors!

The Internet Safety and the Wellbeing of our troops is one of the top priorities of the Ice Warriors Leadership and Staff team. We want you to be safe and happy in our community. This post will be sharing some very important tips with you regarding internet safety and how to safely play with us online!

First, please make sure that you are following all Discord Terms of Service when chatting in the Ice Warriors server. The official Discord TOS information can be found here.

Here is a list of tips that can help you be safe online:

Do Not Share Personal Information – Although we are all a family in Ice Warriors, it is important that you do not share your personal and private information online. This includes your: full name, address, family member’s names, social media accounts, passwords, photos/ videos/ recordings of yourself or family, or any other personal information.
Do Not Meet Up With People You Meet Online – This can put you in real-life danger, as sometimes people are not who they say they are.
Do Not Click on Suspicious Links – If someone you do not know or trust sends you link, please do not click on it. Suspicious links can grab information about you from your computer. Discord server links such as discord.gg/iw or discord.gg/roblox are safe and cannot hurt you or your computer, but please be wary of links that take you outside of discord.
Do Not Download Anything – Make sure you do not download anything that anyone sends you online. This will make sure that no one can get any personal information from your computer.
Make Sure Your Internet Connection is Protected – If possible, always use a VPN when playing online. VPNs can protect your I.P. Address and other sensitive information on your computer. There are many free VPNs that you can get online. If you have any questions on how to get a free VPN make sure to message an IW Leader.
Be Safe in Voice Chats – Voice Chatting (VC) is very popular in the Ice Warriors server, however, it is important to be safe while chatting with others. On discord, you have the ability to begin a video chat when in a VC, do not do this, as it will allow strangers on the internet to see what you look like.
Do Not Accept Friend Requests from People You Do Not Know – Make sure that you only accept friend requests from people you know and trust online! Also, do not send friend requests out to people that you do not know.

Always remember to be kind to each other online. If you have any questions about how to practice internet safety or are having any internet safety issues, reach out to any Ice Warriors Leader or Staff Member for help!

We care about you and want you to be safe! ❤

Love you all,
