Community Tech Help

There are several ways to get community-based tech support from the SCN community, such as the Help Desk. You can use any of these methods to request Internet service from us, request general technology or computer help, or contact us about any other topic.

Join our Discord!

The FASTEST way to get support will be to join the #support channel on our Discord, a messaging platform that we use to organize.

Follow these steps to join Discord:

  1. Join our Discord server via the invite link. You will need to log in or create an account to join, and a moderator will need to assign you a role before you are allowed to join permanently.
  2. Install Discord for your computer, Android, or iOS device to stay up-to-date on conversations.
  3. When posting to the #support channel, describe your question or problem in as much detail as you can. Someone from the community will most likely respond within a few hours.
  4. If you would like to get to know the community, introduce yourself in the #introductions channel! How did you hear about SCN and why are you interested? (More complete instructions can be found here).
