what does the "unable to load profile banner, badges, and about me" mean

Cat Bot

So I recently started noticing these error messages when clicking on some accounts. Although the error message itself may be self-explanatory, I want to know why exactly this is suddenly happening when clicking on some accounts.

    it seems to happen when you used to share servers with someone, but haven't since the rollout of bios

    Oh hey, there's a genuine possibility I was one of the accounts he checked. We were friends a while back but drifted apart long ago. I had this same question, and I looked it up. Found this post and immediately noticed the author of the post. That couldn't be him.. could it? Checked on my Discord and lo and behold, he was.

    That's some incredible serendipity right there.

    @LegitSi I don’t remember you. Did you change your name or something, what server did you originally find me in?

    i also find it,i think its because you had send messanger to him before(you have same server) ,but there is no common server between you now. And they close the private of this "allow the private message from server",so you would see that and also you won't see him online anymore.

    If they aren't in the same server as you and not friends at you at the same time, it will hide their info.

    "If they aren't in the same server as you and not friends at you at the same time, it will hide their info."

    I just discovered that this also happens if whoever has the profile blocks you, even if both of you are from the same server.

    To put it simply, the reason why you see the Discord Unable to Load Profile Banner, Badges and About Me bio is because they are not on the same server as you and not your Discord friend as well. Due to this privacy reason, that user’s profile information will be hidden from you.

    So, how to fix it and be able to see the data? Well, if you know the person or want to get to know them, you can send them a friend request. Or you can have a common server where both of you are added in. This is when you will be able to load their bio and other information. If not, there is no way or workaround to make it happen. This is not a bug but a feature designed to keep the personal data of users private from those that are not connected to you in any way.

    It seems that the "blocker's hidden bio" rule doesn't apply anymore.
    Apologies.

    I'm having the same issue, but it keeps me from seeing ALL my friend's profiles and it's all my servers. It's EVERY profile.

    I'm having the same problem as Alora.
    I started checking through the users of a server I'm in, out of curiosity, to see what our Mutual Servers were. A couple of them would not show (no profile banner, no mutual servers), which is a bit bizarre because we clearly both were in the same server.

    Eventually, the (!) sign started showing up on EVERY user, including my friends, so I cannot see anybody's banners anymore.
