[Implemented] Preventing Automatic Game Registration in Discord

I would like to propose an enhancement to the functionality of the current activity as a status message, specifically in regards to game and application detection. The current system provides two options: Allowing for automatic detection of all games or no detection at all. I believe users could greatly benefit from a more nuanced, user-centric approach.

My suggestion is to implement a toggle option to disable the "Automatic Game Registration" feature. By doing this, we can introduce a new feature, "Manual Game Registration". This alternative won't automatically detect and register games, providing a layer of user-driven control and customization. This feature could complement the existing "Add Game" option under the "Registered Games" settings.

The goal of this proposed feature is to enable users to selectively decide which applications or games they would like to display as their status message. Currently, users are forced to either display all detectable games or none at all, which can be limiting.

By offering more customizable options, we can cater to a wider variety of user preferences and enhance their overall experience.

Over the past few years, a consistent need has been expressed by various members of our community for a specific feature enhancement in our beloved platform, Discord. Today, I'd like to draw your attention towards this important request which has been echoed by countless users.

The first request for this feature dates back to 4 years ago, clearly indicating its long-standing demand among users. Since then, it has been a recurring theme in user feedback. Notably, I've recently encountered 15 separate instances of similar requests, all voicing the same desire for this feature's integration. The persistence and commonality of these requests highlight the significance and potential value this addition could bring to our user experience.

Here are 15 instances of the same requested feature:

Thank you for considering this suggestion.

 

EDIT: This feature was implemented.

Kind regards.

    Exodus:

    Can you be specific? What do you mean by "some"? They all want the same feature that I proposed here and what was proposed 4 years ago here.

    You can go to "Registered Games" under "User Settings" and hit the red X from an "Added Game", but the removed game/application will reappear once you launch it again, so the detection is persistent and it always registers. Currently you can either display game/application as a status message without having control of which application/game to be displayed, or you can switch that feature off entirely.

    sheraz shah I'm not sure where you're pulling this information from, but it seems like you are hallucinating. There are no "Game Activity" in User Settings. The option to "Automatically Detect Games" does not exist. Please stop using tools to generate misinformation.

    Discord doesn't automatically register or detect games played on your computer by default. However, Discord has a feature called "Game Activity" that allows users to manually add and display the games they are currently playing. If you want to prevent Discord from automatically detecting and displaying your game activity, you can follow these steps:

    Disable Game Activity:

    • Open Discord and go to User Settings (click on your profile picture at the bottom left).
    • Navigate to the "Activity Status" section.
    • Toggle off the switch for "Display rent a car dubai currently running game as a status."

    Reset Game Status:

    • If Discord is still showing your game status after disabling the above option, you can manually reset it.
    • Go to User Settings > Game Activity.
    • Click on the "X" next to the game you want to remove.

    Please note that the exact steps and options might vary slightly based on updates or changes made to Discord after my last knowledge update. Always refer to the latest version of Discord and its documentation for the most accurate information.
