"Doing a hyper" is referring to when someone joins a discord call muted just to listen in on the conversation and then leaving a few minutes later without saying something. "doing a hyper" often comes with an eerie vibe, the feeling that you are just being watched or even stalked.
Ways to deal with this:
1, Have everyone unanimously agree not to talk when the "doing a hyper" users join.
2, When the "doing a hyper" user joins have everyone go to a different private call avoiding the user.
3, Confront the user about what they are doing. This can come out in 2 different ways, they could either dodge the question by staying quiet or leaving the call, or they could start talking making them no longer a "doing a hyper" user during that session.
