Why is Discord IP Banned? How to Fix It?

Discord is a daily essential platform for many gamers and interest community members. However, some users sometimes encounter account anomalies, which greatly affects the user experience. In order to keep Discord accounts healthy and stable, users need to learn more about account anomalies.

Ⅰ. Possible reasons why Discord was banned

Most of the time, Discord is banned because the Discord account has been banned by an IP. In fact, it is not just Discord, IP bans exist on many platforms, often manifested as users being banned from accessing from a specific IP, which means that no matter how many new accounts are created or how much information is changed, this IP can no longer be used to register and use normally. The possible reasons for the IP ban are generally the following:

1. Violation of platform rules

In order to maintain the community ecology and order, the platform will inevitably take measures against users who engage in inappropriate and illegal behavior, the most common of which is to ban the account. Therefore, do not do things that violate the platform rules, such as:

·Making inappropriate remarks: such as insulting, discriminatory, fraudulent remarks, etc.

Spamming: Sending large amounts of spam in Discord servers, chat channels, or private messages.

Cheating: Using automated tools or other cheating techniques in games discussed on Discord.

Hacking: Hacking, phishing, using malware, and other acts that infringe on the interests and assets of other users.

2. Overlap or association with banned IP

IP bans essentially ban IPs, so if the IP of an account overlaps or is associated with the banned IP list, the account will be negatively affected, such as throttling, being banned from joining the server, or even being banned from using the account. This often happens when: using a free shared IP, using an unsecured network in a public place, or registering or using an account on a device that has logged into a banned account.

Ⅱ. Prevention and solutions

1. Comply with platform rules

Work together to maintain the order of the platform, use real user information, be careful about words and deeds, do not participate in illegal activities, do not use third-party tools and automated tools for cheating or fraudulent purposes, and cultivate account weight and reputation.

2. Do a good job in preventing association

Even if the account itself has not committed any violations, it will still be negatively affected if it overlaps or is associated with the IP blacklist. It is best to provide an independent and secure IP for the account, avoid using the public network, and do a good job of IP isolation and anti-association. You can use IPFoxy's high-purity IP, which can not only meet the IP isolation needs, but also maintain relatively stable and high-speed use, improving security and user experience.

3. Request an appeal

If a Discord account is subject to an IP ban, you generally will not receive a notification. If you find that your account is restricted, unable to join the server, or has other functional problems, it may be that an IP ban has been implemented. If it cannot be resolved after investigation, you can request an appeal and unban support from the server administrator or official channels.

4. Use a new account

The previous article mentioned the relevance of IP bans. If many methods do not work, you can replace the new device, use new information and IP to register a new account, and then slowly maintain the account.

Ⅲ. Final Thoughts

There are different reasons for Discord to be banned or blocked. Proper prevention and investigation, supplemented by reliable network tools, can effectively ensure the normal use of the account.
