WHAT ARE AGE-RESTRICTED COMMANDS?
Age-restricted commands are commands from apps that may contain age-restricted content, and may only be used by people 18 or older. To ensure that Discord is safe for everyone, our policies require that developers label adult content as age-restricted and not distribute it to people under the age of 18.
WHO CAN USE AGE-RESTRICTED COMMANDS?
Users who are 18 and older can access them in servers and DMs.
WHERE CAN THEY BE USED?
They can be used within age-restricted channels in servers, and in DMs after a user has opted-in to use them.
HOW DO I ACCESS AGE-RESTRICTED COMMANDS?
In servers, you can use these commands only within age-restricted channels. Not all apps have age-restricted commands, but if an app in your server has them, they’ll only be accessible within those designated channels.
In DMs, age-restricted commands are turned off by default. If an app contains age-restricted commands, you can access them by enabling the toggle within User Settings > Privacy> Server Privacy Defaults.
HELP! I'M OVER 18 YEARS OLD, BUT CAN’T USE AGE-RESTRICTED COMMANDS!
If you are over the age of 18 and have been locked out of an age-restricted channel, or are unable to use age-restricted commands in DMs, you can appeal by following the instructions below.
WHAT DO WE NEED TO UNLOCK ACCESS?
Step 1:
Take a photo of yourself that includes yourself holding the following items:
- A photo ID that contains your date of birth
