Discord, a hub for communities, isn't immune to criminal activity. Witnessing or experiencing something illegal is alarming, and knowing how to report it is crucial.
First, document everything. Screenshots, timestamps, and user IDs are vital evidence. Next, determine if the situation requires immediate law enforcement intervention. If there's an imminent threat to safety, contact your local police immediately.
For non-emergency situations, Discord has its own reporting system. You can report users directly through the platform. Select the message, user, or server involved and choose the 'Report' option. Provide detailed explanations and attach your documented evidence. Discord's Trust & Safety team will investigate.
Remember, reporting isn't just about protecting yourself; it's about safeguarding the entire Discord community. If you're unsure, err on the side of caution and report. Your vigilance can help create a safer online environment for everyone.
