We created Discord to be the best place to talk, hang out, and have fun with
friends online. Our Community Guidelines ensure everyone can express themselves
and find community — but not at the expense of anyone else.


These Guidelines explain what isn’t allowed on Discord. Everyone on Discord must
follow these rules, and they apply to all parts of our platform, including your
content, behaviors, servers, and Apps. To learn more about the requirements for
developing a bot or other App, please refer to our Discord Developer Terms of
Service and our Discord Developer Policy.


If you plan to monetize your content, please review the additional rules
outlined in our Monetization Policy and Monetization Terms.


Our Trust & Safety team reviews reports by users, moderators, trusted
third-party partners, or where required by law. When we reactively or
proactively discover a violation of these Guidelines, we may take a number of
enforcement steps against them, including issuing warnings, removing content,
suspending or removing the violative accounts and/or servers, and potentially
reporting them to law enforcement. We may consider relevant off-platform
behavior when making assessments for violations of specific Community
Guidelines.


If you come across an account, server, or content that appears to break these
Guidelines, please report it to us.
‍


RESPECT EACH OTHER

1. Do not promote, coordinate, or engage in harassment. We do not allow any type
of harassing behavior, including sustained bullying, sexual harassment, ban or
block evasion, or coordinating server joins for the purpose of harassing server
members (“server raiding”). (See our Bullying, Harassment, and Threats Policy
Explainer for more.)

2. Do not threaten to harm another individual or group of people. This includes
direct, indirect, and suggestive threats. (See our Bullying, Harassment, and
Threats Policy Explainer for more.)

3. Do not share or threaten to share the personally identifiable information
(PII) of an individual without consent. This includes providing services that
facilitate doxxing, such as buying or selling doxxes or compiling doxxes for
others. (See our Doxxing Policy Explainer for more.)

4. Do not use hate speech or engage in other hateful conduct. This includes the
use of hate symbols, imagery, and claims that deny the history of mass human
atrocities. 

We consider hate speech to be any form of expression that either attacks other
people or promotes hatred or violence against them based on their protected
characteristics. (See our Hateful Conduct Policy Explainer for more.)

5. Do not organize, promote, or support violent extremism. This also includes
coordinating violent acts; glorifying or promoting violence or the perpetrators
of violent acts; and promoting conspiracy theories that could encourage or
incite violence against others. (See our Violent Extremism and Violence and
Graphic Content Policy Explainers for more.)

6. Do not solicit, share, or make any attempt to distribute content that
depicts, promotes, or attempts to normalize child sexual abuse. Also, do not
post content or engage in conduct that in any way sexualizes children. This
includes real as well as manipulated media, animation (such as lolicon), and any
type of digital creation (note that this includes AI-generated media).

We report child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and grooming to the National Center
for Missing & Exploited Children, which may subsequently work with local law
enforcement. (See our Teen and Child Safety Policy Explainer for more.)

7. If you are under the age of 18, do not engage in sexual conduct or any
conduct that puts your online or physical safety at risk. This includes
consensual sexual interactions between teens, as well as any encouragement or
coordination of potentially risky behaviors, such as vigilantism. 

We want teens to be able to express themselves freely on Discord as much as
possible, but given the risks associated with online dating, we will remove
spaces that encourage or facilitate dating between teens. (See our Teen and
Child Safety Policy Explainer for more.)

8. Do not solicit sexual content from or engage in any sexual conduct with
anyone under the age of 18. We report child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and
grooming to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, which may
subsequently work with local law enforcement. (See our Teen and Child Safety
Policy Explainer for more.)

9. Do not make sexually explicit content available to anyone under the age of
18. You must be age 18 or older to engage with adult content on Discord. 

Server owners must apply an age-restricted label to any channels that contain
sexually explicit content.

Users may not post sexually explicit content in any space that cannot be
age-restricted, including in avatars, custom statuses or bios, server banners,
server icons, invite splashes, emoji, and stickers. (See our Sexual Content
Policy Explainer for more.)

10. Do not share, distribute, or create sexually explicit or sexually suggestive
content of other people without the subject’s consent. This includes the
non-consensual distribution of intimate media that was created either with or
without an individual’s consent. (See our Non-Consensual Adult Intimate Media
Policy Explainer for more.)

11. Do not share content that glorifies, promotes, or normalizes suicide or
other acts of physical self-harm. This includes content that encourages others
to cut, burn, or starve themselves, as well as content that normalizes eating
disorders, such as anorexia and bulimia. Self-harm acts or threats used as a
form of emotional manipulation or coercion are also prohibited. (See our Suicide
and Self-Harm Policy Explainer for more.)

12. Do not share real media depicting gore, excessive violence, or animal harm,
especially with the intention to harass or shock others. (See our Violence and
Graphic Content Policy Explainer for more.)


RESPECT DISCORD

13. Do not send unsolicited bulk messages (or spam) to others. Also, do not
facilitate this activity, such as by selling spambots, server “raid” tools,
account-creation tools, token generators, CAPTCHA-solving services, or other
spam tools. (See our Platform Manipulation Policy Explainer for more.)

14. Do not use self-bots or user-bots. Each account must be associated with a
human, not a bot. (See our Platform Manipulation Policy Explainer for more.)

15. Do not engage with our service in an inauthentic way. This includes
artificially inflating server membership, manipulating engagement metrics, and
selling artificial engagement services. (See our Platform Manipulation Policy
Explainer for more.)

16. Do not sell or purchase Discord assets, including accounts, usernames,
servers, server permissions, or custom server invite links. (See our Platform
Manipulation Policy Explainer for more.)

Abuse of Discord's paid features or monetization opportunities are covered under
our Paid Service Terms.

17. Do not share false or misleading information (otherwise known as
misinformation). Content that is false, misleading, and can lead to significant
risk of physical or societal harm may not be shared on Discord. We may remove
content if we reasonably believe its spread could result in damage to physical
infrastructure, injury of others, obstruction of participation in civic
processes, or the endangerment of public health. (See our Misinformation Policy
Explainer for more.)

18. Do not misrepresent your identity on Discord in a deceptive or harmful way.
This includes creating fake profiles and attempts to impersonate an individual,
group, or organization. (See our Identity and Authenticity Policy Explainer for
more.)

19. Do not evade permanent Discord-level enforcement actions. This includes
creating new or using existing accounts or communities after being removed for
violating our platform rules. (See our Identity and Authenticity Policy
Explainer for more.)

20. Do not engage in activities that could damage or compromise the security of
an account, network, or system. This includes using deceptive techniques to
trick others into revealing sensitive information (phishing), using malicious
software (malware), and flooding a target with traffic in order to make a
resource unavailable (denial-of-service attacks). (See our Deceptive Practices
Policy Explainer for more.)

21. Do not use or attempt to use Discord to promote, coordinate, or execute
financial scams. A financial scam is any intentionally deceptive act taken with
the intent to receive an illegal, unethical, or otherwise dishonest gain. (See
our Deceptive Practices Policy Explainer for more.)

22. Do not engage in activities that fraudulently generate a profit at the
expense of others. This includes facilitating, providing instructions for, and
participating in fraud. We do not allow coordinated efforts to defraud
businesses, price gouging, forgery, money laundering, counterfeit goods, or
tools that facilitate illegal behavior. (See our Deceptive Practices Policy
Explainer for more.)

23. Do not submit false, misleading, or abusive reports or requests to Discord’s
support teams. A report or request will be considered false or misleading if it
contains demonstrably untrue information submitted with the intent to manipulate
staff into taking a desired action. (See our Discord Support Abuse Policy
Explainer for more.)


FOLLOW THE LAW

24. Do not share content that violates anyone's intellectual property or other
rights. This includes sharing or selling game cheats or hacks. (See our
Unauthorized Copyright Access Policy for more.) 

For more information on how Discord handles copyright complaints, please view
our Copyright & Intellectual Property Policy.

25. Do not organize, promote, or engage in the selling or facilitation of sales
of regulated or potentially dangerous goods. Regulated goods have laws in place
that restrict the purchase, sale, trade, or ownership of the goods. Dangerous
goods have a reasonable potential to cause real-world, physical harm to
individuals. (See our Dangerous and Regulated Goods Policy Explainer for more.)

26. Do not coordinate or participate in illegal gambling. Users are responsible
for complying with applicable gambling laws and regulation. (See our Gambling
Policy Explainer for more.)

27. Do not organize, promote, or engage in any other illegal activity, such as
human trafficking or sexual solicitation. (See our Human Trafficking and Sexual
Solicitation Policy Explainers for more.)
‍

If you see any content or activity that violates these Guidelines, our Terms of
Service, or our other policies, please report it to us. You can learn more on
how to report to us here. However, please note that we strongly discourage and
may take action against vigilantism, as this behavior can put individuals in
harm’s way and can also interfere with our investigations and ability to report
to law enforcement.

These Guidelines will continue to evolve over time. This means we may take
action against an account, server, or content that violates the spirit of these
Guidelines when we encounter a new threat or harm that is not explicitly covered
in the current version.

We will always make our best effort to notify you when we update these
Guidelines, but it is up to you to follow the spirit of them: Keep Discord safe
and help us continue to make it the best place to talk, hang out and have fun
with friends online. Thanks for doing your part.‍
