One of these is the "Browse Channels" menu, which can be found at the very top of the channel menu in the Discord server. It is possible that, even though you joined the correct groups through our EVE University Auth, you cannot find the channels you joined in your channel list. In this case, check out the "Browse Channels" menu and ensure the channels you want to see are checked. Discord may be (inadvertently) hiding channels from your view. | ||
