You can contact the GMs by two methods:
Emailing is not anonymous, but the RPGSoc's MailDragon system is set up such that it is not always immediately obvious who is sending the message, so please do make it clear who you are! All of the GMs will be able to read your message, so if you'd like to contact just one specific GM, doing so via Discord will be most effective.
