A Guide to Discord/Age-Restrictions
Discord is useful for creating communities focused on a variety of topics, including those that may not be suitable for minors. Channel settings allow you to designate one or more channels as age-restricted.
Enabling Restrictions
[edit | edit source]To designate a channel as age-restricted, find the channel you'd like to mark and click the "edit channel" icon. Within the edit channel tab, click on the option to mark the channel as age-restricted.
Unlocking Access
[edit | edit source]If you are over the age of 18 and would like to access an age-restricted channel but are unable to do so, take a photo of yourself with a photo ID that confirms your date of birth, as well as a piece of paper containing your full Discord Tag. Submit a request to the Trust and Safety Team (https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000029731) and select "Appeals, age update, other questions", then "Update my age information".
