Delete chat history. (leaked at 15) medium long story
This is more of my situation, I am now 18 and 3 years ago(15 years old) I got into major drama and my nudes have been leaked in a server. (I know I was very dumb to ever exchange something online with my privacy.) and pictures of my face. I have long gone left the server. But I can still see the chats with people I used to be friends with that leaked me. I want to remove every chat history they had with me and that I had with them. Please help. I can’t delete my face pictures because they’re the ones that have sent it in our chat history. I don’t want my face to be in the chat history. Discord should have an option where if you are no longer friended with the person the chat history disappears from both sides. Please this would make discord privacy so much better. I can’t delete something they sent (my face, my privacy.) No. blocking isn’t enough. They will still have our chat history and can still see my face. It’s uncomfortable. Knowing I can’t delete my face because they sent it in chat and can look back at our chats anytime they want(WHILE UNFRIENDED/BLOCKED) it doesn’t help at all. I know this is more of my problem and it’s dumb. But it still falls into others peoples request where they want chat history gone from both parties when you’re not added to eachother or Blocked. Also huge problem with the Account deletion. Why are chats still open for accounts that are deleted, it makes no sense. If their account was approved of deletion it should wipe every chat they had in servers or pms.
I am now 18 and still think about the people that have my faces in chat because it’s still very accessible whenever they wants cause discord allows people to look at past chats without being added.
Again, I know it’s about responsibility but anything can happen in the media. I hope someone else isn’t a victim of this. Cause holy it’s been 3 years but I still think about it becuase I literally can’t do anything about it anymore but post it here, I’ve tried contacting discord all they said was to post it in feedback lol.
Thank you to whoever reads this.

Hey there,
I'm sorry you're still going through this. Although I haven't personally dealt with this issue, I know it's a widespread problem with Discord. That kind of response from Discord isn't appropriate. I am aware of internal politics going on at Discord, and jobs might be at risk over this type of stuff, so everyone tries to throw everyone else under. It's not you.
As you seem to be keenly aware, deleting your account does not delete the messages. If you haven't already, use the button on Discord's account settings to request a COPY of your data and keep it somewhere safe (Google Drive with 2FA is where I keep my copies).
A COPY of your data will help identify the specific links or IDs to delete and help protect you if anybody violates the law by sharing those without your consent (also why I'd suggest a lawyer who will know your specific rights). A copy of your data may also help you when you contact Discord support with the specific IDs (server ID, etc).
I'd make a new, simple two-sentence request with Discord following up every week. Keep records of those requests with Discord. Just block out their ‘advice’ in your mind. The worst one is when they ask for more information. Try not to provide too much information; it should ideally be the minimum amount needed to process your request.
I would also try contacting a licensed lawyer from the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI) organization site. In 2 sentences, explain that nudes were shared and that you're 18 now and need help contacting Discord to shred the data so it isn't a problem. A lawyer can help reach out under the most applicable privacy law (CCPA, CPRA, etc., new ones every month) with enough information for them to delete the data.
I can't offer direct assistance or legal advice, but you can check out my Twitter @freezegw. Anyways, stay safe out there.

Damn yeah, I hope discord will add this. It’s so dumb how your chat still exist even after removing the conversation. I thought it would delete it for both of us like it just wipes out conversation together. I did a keyword search to find something and found the word inside a chat I wanted removed. Hate how this is the only app with this option. What’s the point in privacy when there isn’t privacy. Get them out of my life 😭 I don’t want to remember them and neither do I want them to remember me. But yeah this story is something else, hope you heal through it. Media is no joke and anyone can find anything you left behind it’s so ass.

It's a design defect/safety flaw that you can't delete your own messages (or, report messages) after getting kicked from a server. It's truly bizarre seeing your real issue buried under mountains of "why am I banned?" spam.
