Discord is optional—not a requirement.
The Haus Forum is a complete website community for visitors who do not want to join Discord. Forum conversations stay on the website and are not copied from or posted into Discord.
The Discord server remains a separate way to participate in the wider Haus community. Members may choose either space or both.

Inside the public forum
Belonging needs boundaries.
The forum includes private email sign-in, a 21+ affirmation, rate limits, topic and reply reports, protected moderation, locks, suspensions, removals, and an audit trail. The Forum is community space—not emergency, medical, or mental-health care.
