When should I Block Someone on Discord?
If you’re not sure whether or not you should block someone on Discord, ask yourself the following questions:
-Do they repeatedly send you unwanted messages?
-Do they make you feel uncomfortable or harassed in any way?
-Do they spam your server with advertising or other unwelcome content?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, it might be a good idea to block the person in question. Blocking someone on Discord will prevent them from being able to contact you or see any of your messages. It’s a good way to protect yourself from online harassment.
If you’re not sure whether or not you should block someone, you can always ask a trusted friend or moderator for their opinion.
What happens when you block someone on Discord?
When you block someone on Discord, that person will no longer be able to send you any private messages or join any of the servers that you are a part of. If you have ever been on the receiving end of harassment or simply don’t want to be bothered by someone, blocking them is the best way to go. Keep in mind that when you block someone, they can still see your public information and message you on servers that you both share.
If you need to take a break from someone on Discord but don’t want to block them outright, you can also set your account to ‘invisible’ so that they cannot see when you are online.
