Additional FAQ

If there’s anything else you’re interested in finding out regarding bans on Discord, check out the next section:

Are Bans on Discord Permanent?

Whether the ban is permanent on Discord depends on the type of ban involved. Server bans occur when a moderator bans a member from a particular server. This means that anyone using the same IP address also won’t be able to access that server. This ban doesn’t need to be permanent. The moderator may decide to unban that person, so they’ll be allowed into the server once again.

However, there are also system-wide bans. If Discord bans a member for violating their policies, these bans are permanent.

What Happens If You Ban Someone on Discord?

When a moderator bans someone on Discord, this member can’t post on the server, see messages, send or get voice chats. They also can’t see other users who are on the server from which they’ve been banned. Since these bans are IP-based, other people using the same IP address won’t be able to access the same server.

The person you’ve banned won’t get a notification. But when they try to enter the server, they’ll see a message that the link has expired.

Can I Get Unbanned on Discord?

Unless a moderator decides to unban a member, there’s no way to do it by yourself. However, a banned member can reach the server moderator, apologize for whatever made this person ban them, and hope they’ll revoke the ban. But keep in mind this is only possible if the moderator hasn’t also blocked you. If that’s the case, you won’t be able to send them a message.

If Discord has banned a member, the only way to get unbanned is to contact Discord and appeal. Banned members can write in detail about their problem and hope for the best. To write to Discord service, here’s what you should do:

• Tap on this link.

• Select Trust and Safety under What can we help you with?

• Choose Appeal an action Trust & Safety took on my account under Report Type.

• Write about the ban details.

• Attach any documents if you have.

• When you’re done, tap Submit.

Can You Ban Someone Again After Unbanning Them on Discord?

Even if a moderator revokes a ban, it’s still possible to ban a member again if there’s a good reason for that. The moderator should follow the same steps they did the first time to ban this member.

Unbanning Discord Members

Whether you’re using Discord on your computer or a smartphone, it’s possible to unban a member you’ve previously banned. Perhaps you’ve made a mistake, or they sent a message apologizing, which is why you decide to revoke a ban.

Keep in mind that if that member violates the rules at any point, you can ban them once again. Since these are IP-based bans, they won’t be able to use the server even if they make another account but still use the same IP address.
