Does Discord tell you who’s banned?

Answered by Robert Dupre

As of now, Discord does not provide a built-in feature that directly notifies users about who has been banned from a server. When a user is banned from a Discord server, they do not receive a notification stating the reason for their ban. Instead, they are simply unable to access the server and all its channels, and their username is removed from the member list.

Discord server owners and administrators have the ability to ban users, but the notification process is different. When a user is banned, the server owner or admin has the option to send a ban notification to the user, which can include a reason for the ban. However, this is not a default option, and it is up to the server owner or admin to choose whether or not to send a ban notification.

In some cases, server owners or admins may choose to communicate the reason for a ban directly to the user through private messages or other means of communication outside of Discord. This allows for more personalized and detailed explanations, especially in situations where the ban is a result of a violation of server rules or community guidelines.

It is worth noting that while Discord does not provide a built-in notification system for bans, server owners and admins have the option to use bots or custom scripts to automate ban notifications or logging. These third-party solutions can provide more detailed information about bans, such as the reason for the ban, the moderator who issued the ban, and the date and time of the ban. However, the availability and implementation of these features vary depending on the server and the moderation tools used.
