Counterevidence: not being a Discord user, although I'm vaguely aware
that there's someone named "Random Internet Cat" on Discord, I couldn't
remember which Agoran it was (until this thread reminded me). So this
didn't immediately specify a particular person, from my point of view.
(I could probably have figured it out if it were important.)

When I originally joined Agora, there was some sentiment that players
should be able to play without reading a-d (and people would send
"important" things to a-b as a consequence, even if they contained no
game actions). I'm not sure whether and when that part of game custom
changed, but it's probably still the case that information only
available via a discussion forum isn't available to Agorans generally.
