Since november last year (2025) my account was suspended for ban evasion (I attached photos if anyone can tell if i missed something) . I have no idea how this happened!!! I have had my account for over 8 YEARS!! and have NEVER gotten any strikes on the account to reach the point of getting suspended. I have so much history on that account and im afraid of losing it 😭. I have tried reaching out to the support and filling a review ticket but it’s all the same bots and no actual help!! I have never made any new accounts or anything this had been my only account ever! I’m just asking if anyone knows anything useful to do or am I stuck waiting until next year to get my account back? Does that mean I’ll even get it back or is just the date my suspension ends and I already lost everything?? Im just confused how this happened to me when I had been using the same account for forever?? If anyone has any information to help I would appreciate it so much 😞😞😞.

I am aware of the fact that Discords AI moderation system has been falsely banning users because anything that contains an image in the form of a grid, is being falsely accused of illegal CSAM material.

This has made me super concerned and nervous because around January to say last month, ive been sharing to friends this character sheet art piece of one of my original characters, and well you can notice the background i went with.

I havent posted any images in discord as of right now, but i have the following questions that i wish i can get answers to ASAP;

1.) Is the AI moderation also targetting posts containing grid like graphics that were posted months ago?

2.) If i choose to delete the many reposts of this art piece from my friend's DM's, is discord going to do a check on the deleted message? (Im saying this one cus apparently i heard claims that discord scans your deleted messages)

3.) I have made several more character sheets that dont have a grid graphic but have repeated patterns as backgrounds, are those also being falsely too?

Please help me answer these questions, and what can i do to protect my account.

First, is it okay to accept random friend requests from people (I suspect this is a bot/scam account) and secondly is this a bot/scam account?

Edit: thank you guys for the help. Also sidenote HOLY QUICK RESPONSE, ARE Y'ALL JUST CONSTANTLY REFRESHING THE PAGE WAITING FOR NEW POTS???? 😭😭😭

The message was that they wouldn't attack at all if we surrendered... but I can't believe it. Should I have made backups and taken precautions beforehand for something like this...?

I’m a FNAF fangame developer who relies on Discord for communication. I’m currently managing 2 projects and helping out on another one, so Discord is a VERY vital platform for me.

Last night I sent some game textures I created in one of the servers I’m in and was immediately hit with a child safety ban. The textures in question include a checkerboard pattern so I’m assuming that’s what set off the grid detection. I’ve included a screenshot from one of my friends of the same exact textures I sent in another server so you can see that this is 100% a wrongful ban.

I genuinely NEED this account back so badly. I’m in communication with so many of my peers on that account for so many projects I’m involved with. I really don’t want to ban evade and alternatives aren’t really the best solution for me. I’m sure I could get some of my teams or friends to move over but certainly not all of them.

I’ve submitted an appeal and requested a review of the ban, but that was last night so I doubt anyone has seen it yet. I’ve also been tweeting at and messaging them on Twitter, my friends have been doing the same. I’m so insanely upset and infuriated by this whole situation. Discord shouldn’t get away with this, this needs to be made right. Especially with how many people this seems to be affecting.

Anyway, here are some questions I have. Should I continue sending messages on my support ticket? Or start new ones? Am I less likely to get this resolved because it’s the weekend? How long should I expect to wait until this is resolved, if at all? Is there something I can do that I haven’t already done that typically gives people a better chance at getting this resolved quicker? I’ve heard that Discord is aware of this issue and is trying to resolve it for people.

As fucking frustrated as I am at this it helps slightly to know I’m not the only one this is happening to. Misery loves company I guess!

So my account had been suspended over a year ago now but i did not try to update the age verification thing. Now when im trying to access my account I cannot access to as to get the "Restore account" option and when i tried contacting the discord support they simply say to comply or raise ticket with k-ID while k-ID support says to contact discord for this. I am completely lost as to how to access my account and verify or update my age and get this account back. I cannot view my account status or i do not have any option to verify my age. How can I get across this? please help.

Also for reference to the images when i try to login with email it says that "Email does not access" although I tried getting through my phone number in my mobile and then i get the instruction in the image "discord is for ages 13 and up", though it says it will send instructions to email but idk where it will send.

Please help me with this I really need to access my account.

I want it like this I tried tutorials but still when I open discord I that’s the only time I get notified. (IPhone)
