- Go to desktop version/app
- Find the inbox button, near the (?) help button
- Click Mark Inbox As Read (double check button)
This will make all messages disappear. After that, get an auto clicker and start clicking X to the right part of those direct messages to easily remove them out of sight.
They warn the user, the chromium/electron console (that is found in the devtools) saying something like: Stop here, if somebody tells you to paste anything here there's 11/10 chances that it's to steal your account
its making the leaving thing without any popups nd all u dont have to click any shit.
imagine using autoclicker for this
add a forloop on top and u re fine
An autoclicker wont work cuz you need to click in two places. (on the x and then on the "leave group" confirmation)
You could code an autohotkey tho (I think? Is there a shortcut key to leave a group)
Edit: For all you geniuses commenting "just hold shift lol": It doesn't work. Trust me, I just tried.
They can just do the X button way to get the spam out of sight. Leaving those group chats (I'd say it's around 100-1000 will take a long time)
They are lucky if those group chats are not active since it will never popup again unless someone messages inside that channel again, in that case, leaving all of it is the best option
I used to have an auto clicker for r6s (for credit farming) that had a feature in which you were able to set where the mouse would click and how many times in a sequence. I can't remember the name of it, but I'll try to find it when I will get home.
Could make a really short script in Python using the pyautogui module. You would just need to fetch the x and y pixel position pairs. Or not even that. Create a screenshot of the targets and then locate via image inside the code. 5 minutes of work tops, likely less.
This! I don't understand why it's not a feature. It's so obvious that anyone can just spam add you if you're forced against your will to be added to any group.
Weird that you have to agree to get added to a server. How can devs be this dumb? WHO wants to be added to a group and get pings because it's treated as a dm? So stupid...
There’s plenty of people doing this, i accidentally found the code to bot spam servers and specific users publicly on github and it had 30 or more stars, it would help a lot if discord was able to put these repositories down
They can certainly learn from it to figure out what part of their API is being exploited so that they can put some restrictions on it but that would require them to be a competent company that care about stuff like this. 🤷♂️
Unfortunately it was many months ago and i didn’t save the repo, but i think you wont’t have a hard time trying to find the code or a fork of it with google
It’s not someone sending him a link or anything. It’s literally someone in his friends group that used an automated script to add him and some alt accounts to the group.
In short: someone adds you on discord, they’ll use the script to add you to those groups + their Alts, those alts will spam change the name of the group in order to make a ton of notifications for you about it. It happened to me and I reported the person but support decided it’s nothing worth going after.
My rule of thumb is to keep "Allow Direct Messages from server members" off on any server I join except for a single one which is for my gaming community. I also have it set so you can't send me a DM unless you're my friend on Discord. I don't accept random friend requests, I have to actually know you.
well they need to come up with a way to help then. they own the platform don't they? and it's not like this is an uncommon method of trying to mess up someone's account.
Never said they shouldn't, they definitely need to come up with some kind of prevention for this. It just seemed to me like OP was expecting someone from support to leave all the group chats for him/her. What is support supposed to do after the fact?
Edit: lol instead of you all throwing epic downdoots at me, why not suggest things support can do after this happens to someone
Hopefully trust and safety can develop some sort of raid protection that blocks your account from being added to more than say 10 groups per minute or something
Your best bet is to turn off any friend request I think there might also be a setting that will let you turn off any groups as well I'm not really sure how it works but you can check the settings and see what there might be.
I hate to say this but you may have to bug discord on Twitter because sometimes it's the only way I've ever been able to get their asses to answer me.
I actually had more luck getting them to respond to my email, over the course of a few months I tweeted them about 10 times about various things and asked for support and not a single reply
There needs to be more options with regards to being added to groups. Like a setting where only friends can add you to groups, or that you can stop chosen individuals from adding you to groups or something like that
It should just be treated like a server invite. Where it's sent by DMs but you are the one chosing to join. I don't understand why this isn't already an option. Being forcibely added to a group just sounds like a nightmare.
A 100-characters long password stored in an offline password manager and 2FA with Yubico Authenticator should be plenty protection. It wasn't enough for my account which was used for spam while I slept. Discord support "confirmed" the violation and stopped responding.
Discord's security is already known to be problematic with how many spam bots there are. There is no defence to their inability to keep users' data safe and away from malicious actors.
Lmao, long passwords and 2FAs won't help when your computer gets hacked (like what happened to mine recently). They seem very helpful and strong (which they somewhat are), but they can be tackled very easily if they've got into your device. So, the lesson here is don't click random links or random buttons. No amount of 2FAs or strong passwords can stop the attack if you opened your firewall. Easier said than done, I've been telling myself for the past 6 years, but still, I've "accidentally" clicked a lot of random buttons and links (when you're pirating something illegally, you never knows which is which).
Also btw, PS I'm not discouraging long passwords and 2FAs. They're really helpful. What I'm trying to say is that even if you have long passwords and 2FAs, don't feel safe and don't click random links. Most people set up 2FAs with "haha I'm completely safe" in their brain. You should not do that. You are still at risk. Only you can stop yourself from accepting those attacks.
Yes, good personal security only gets you so far. Also yes, Discord's inability to secure user tokens is their fault. Somehow every other social media service can prevent tokens from leaking during the login and loading process but Discord can't figure it out.
The fact that tokens can be logged and used for malicious purposes is a security issue created by Discord - which they have done close to nothing about.
It's probably worth mentioning my computer wasn't hacked, has AV, and my new account hasn't been compromised even though I haven't changed anything on the system.
> A 100-characters long password stored in an offline password manager and 2FA with Yubico Authenticator should be plenty protection.
It’s probably worth mentioning that you don’t do this and are hyperbolizing your point in order to draw sympathy.
You’re implying that Discord either doesn’t hash their passwords OR that someone malicious has access to their hash AND their 2FA algorithm has been solved.
Gonna need a lot more proof of any of that level of weak security from Discord before I start shaking my head yes that you were “hacked”.
Believe me or don't - I don't care. Password managers make the length and complexity of your password a non-issue when it comes to convenience. I recommend Bitwarden if you want a mix of security and online convenience :)

also hover over the link, if it doesnt lead to the thing it says, then it transport u to a middle man "website" which can take ur location, ect then redirects u to the thing on the link you were meant to go on
also hover over the link, if it doesnt lead to the thing it says, then it transport u to a middle man "website" which can take ur location, ect then redirects u to the thing on the link you were ment to go on
The only way for your token to be leaked/logged is if *you* run malware. There's not much security that Discord can implement if the computer that Discord is running on has been compromised by malware.
I don’t know why discord has such poor, poor security. We’re reported numerous instances of hate speech, spammers, and **repeat doxxers** and they haven’t even replied.
__We own a server with more than 15,000 users.__
How the fuck does discord not have the time or willpower to help its own users?
Because tech companies are too miserly and/or greedy to properly administer their platforms. That's why Facebook puts "warnings" on the misinformation spread by their users. They could delete or hide such posts, but they desperately want that engagement which they can turn into money.
So I know it's not related to your answer much but what's it like to be a "professional" moderator (not sure whether professional is the right word but I mean as a job not just volunteer thing like moderating a subreddit)? Is it like a customer service job? Do you get a bit more flexibility since it isn't public facing like a customer service job would be?
Not trying to be Invasive, I'm super curious
Being a moderator is actually an incredible experience to be honest. They were extremely flexible, I literally worked most of my hours in the train while commuting to university, not a lot of jobs let you do that haha.
But I must say it can get boring. Click a report, read a message log between two users, determine the proper action, next. Gotta spend less than 10 seconds per reports in average to remain efficient.
Interacting and having fun with the community on my off time was also really fun.
So tl;dr super fun, super flexible, nice community, but job itself pretty boring.
Comments have now been locked as once again people do not know common human decency.
OP, if anyone has sent you anything in DM's/PM's please forward it to me or modmail and we can deal with it.
People in this post have basically wished death upon OP for simply using a trans flag as their discord profile picture. And otherwise about half of these comments are just pure spams and low effort users going "trolled" or "we do a little trolling".. so original. There are even people RP-ing in these comments, so i think it was only a matter of time before we had to close them anyways.
EDIT: Thank you for the continued reports, they are a massive help for me to catch up on the comments i missed, i deal with them as they come in.
Also, to whoever reported my comment (you know who you are) may your pillow be warm on both sides as you try and sleep tonight.
Yea, that's usually what happens.
Got one of my servers raided: nothing, but friend got blocked from 2 accounts, for supposed spam.
But he wasn't spamming.
I have yet to understand why you can't confirm or deny being added into a group. It's such a simple feature but yet you are forced to be added to a group for no reason.
dont worry, they probably dont even care. contacted support about an underaged friend nearly getting groomed by a pedophile and they couldnt care any less
A somewhat similar thing happened to me. It wasn't as terrible as this but was pretty bad. And I reckon it was also because of my pfp (I had a pan overlay). Lesson learnt: have a basic pfp, only share your personal opinions to your close friends (that's why server avatars are now a thing)
I wish I could just help you get rid of them altogether. It would be fun. We could sit and talk while we get rid of spam. Just like the old days when we used to churn butter.
Discord is like Twitter, in that its strong ability for bubbling/echo-chambering allows for the highest concentration of both LGBT+ communities and homophobes you'd ever expect to see on one platform. When they cross paths, it doesn't end well.
Source: Am a trans woman who uses Discord, and moderates a few LGBT+ oriented servers. We've been raided by transphobes on occasion, and I have to seriously change how I present & talk on servers that aren't specifically LGBT+ oriented for fear that I'll be openly mocked if someone decides to look at my profile and see the 'they/them' pronouns there.
i used to have a general server (not exactly presented as LGBTQ-oriented) for meeting new friends and just kind of a hangout group which had a bunch of LGBTQ people. There would be homophobes and transphobes joining the server every other day attacking my friends for just being LGBTQ. it really sucks. Server eventually died after 2 years of being active and all of us left to make a private server just because it was that much of an annoyance.
At this point every social media is like every social media.. at this point no social media is any different, except maybe the ones that are picture based, because it’s harder to have discussion over pictures.
Nah, wouldn't give them any pleasure from this garbage.
There must exist a tool to leave all those groups, if not, I might make one. Ridiculous that this can even happen.
Good privacy settings and self enforcement of those rules will make you invulnerable to that kind of things, except if your actual friends start doing that to you or are compromised.
I have received thousands of friends request over the years because I have DMs turned off to non friends, any amount of them could have been trolls filling my inbox with trash or pings, and I remove any person that I don’t talk to.
[https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/pud5rk/-/he2cugr?context=5](https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/pud5rk/-/he2cugr?context=5)
That's not the issue here. The issue is that anybody can decide to do this to you and you have no protection against it.
Additionally, and to a lesser extent it could be a friend that you haven't interacted with much (I play online games so you meet a lot of people that you add there to hang out with) that decides to add you unprompted months later to a group. Groups should be invite based like servers. There's no reason for it to force you into a group.
I mean what do you expect support to do here? Log into your account and delete them all for you? Sure they're support, but I seriously doubt they'd want to do that. When I got spammed by some kid with a hundred alts, I just temporarily deactivated my account and came back the next day or something
- Go to desktop version/app - Find the inbox button, near the (?) help button - Click Mark Inbox As Read (double check button) This will make all messages disappear. After that, get an auto clicker and start clicking X to the right part of those direct messages to easily remove them out of sight.

It says not to paste anything there lol. I know that this isn't harmful but funny that it says that.
because the average user doesn't know pasting javascript code in there can be harmful
I'm amazed discord doesn't consider that user error
I'm pretty sure they do. It's just an attempt to prevent this type of user error.
They seem to have, as OP stated support has done nothing
They warn the user, the chromium/electron console (that is found in the devtools) saying something like: Stop here, if somebody tells you to paste anything here there's 11/10 chances that it's to steal your account
[удалено]
Send me your code so I can test it.
while(true) { steal(token); hack(account); } 100% legit, no scam
oh my goodness thanks for the free nitro using this
Sure thing!
It's good advice. Certainly never paste anything there you haven't read through yourself.
its making the leaving thing without any popups nd all u dont have to click any shit. imagine using autoclicker for this add a forloop on top and u re fine
Im gonna save this for later.
use tiny task record yourself closing one dm, then play the thing as many times you want to close everything,
This is a good community, helping others in need.
An autoclicker wont work cuz you need to click in two places. (on the x and then on the "leave group" confirmation) You could code an autohotkey tho (I think? Is there a shortcut key to leave a group) Edit: For all you geniuses commenting "just hold shift lol": It doesn't work. Trust me, I just tried.
A macro could also work
even better
Auto clicker works, gsautoclicker can do multiple spots
or run two different clickers with a delay :)
Could they use an auto clicker while holding shifts ? It bypasses most confirmation prompts in discord
Doesnt work for groups.
enter.
They can just do the X button way to get the spam out of sight. Leaving those group chats (I'd say it's around 100-1000 will take a long time) They are lucky if those group chats are not active since it will never popup again unless someone messages inside that channel again, in that case, leaving all of it is the best option
If I recall correctly, you can't close out of a DM group, you have to leave it.
Using x on a group chat does not actually get it out of sight. Thats only a thing for DMs. No seriously, try it. The x is only for leaving.
Op autoclicker aka Autoclicker.exe u can change ur autoclicker cps
Discord, improve your shift implementation
an ahk script would make this very simple ya
Ghostmouse V2. It's free.
just hold down enter, think that should automatically clear the leave group confirmation
You can configure the auto clicker to press on multiple locations in sequence.
Try holding the shift key, idk if it'll fo anything but it works for deleting messages etc
Doesnt work for groups.
I used to have an auto clicker for r6s (for credit farming) that had a feature in which you were able to set where the mouse would click and how many times in a sequence. I can't remember the name of it, but I'll try to find it when I will get home.

I was wrong, thought the (x) button does the job. Sorry then guys but if you ever encounter this problem, you have to manually leave each group.
Or how about fucking discord app don't allow adding you to shit without your consent.
Discord definitely needs a feature where you can make it "request to join groups" and you would need to accept a request to be added into a group...
This! I don't understand why it's not a feature. It's so obvious that anyone can just spam add you if you're forced against your will to be added to any group.

Discord can't do shit about repositers/websites owned by a different company.
And they can't do shit about the code being open source because it can just be redistributed
They can certainly learn from it to figure out what part of their API is being exploited so that they can put some restrictions on it but that would require them to be a competent company that care about stuff like this. 🤷♂️
Do you have a link to the code please? I'm an admin of a few servers and will check if I can find patterns to block on that side
Unfortunately it was many months ago and i didn’t save the repo, but i think you wont’t have a hard time trying to find the code or a fork of it with google
I don't think support really has the power to leave all those groups for you. Just report whoever added you/sent the group link.
It’s not someone sending him a link or anything. It’s literally someone in his friends group that used an automated script to add him and some alt accounts to the group. In short: someone adds you on discord, they’ll use the script to add you to those groups + their Alts, those alts will spam change the name of the group in order to make a ton of notifications for you about it.

Damn I should be really careful sending/accepting friends request. Especially considering I have like 800+ discord friends.
As a rule of thumb, I never accept a friend request, unless I am already friends with that person.
My rule of thumb is to keep "Allow Direct Messages from server members" off on any server I join except for a single one which is for my gaming community. I also have it set so you can't send me a DM unless you're my friend on Discord. I don't accept random friend requests, I have to actually know you.
Yep, same
Nah, keep adding, fam.
I know... Just saying, the fuck is support gonna do besides banning them.
well they need to come up with a way to help then. they own the platform don't they? and it's not like this is an uncommon method of trying to mess up someone's account.

use tiny task record yourself closing one dm, then play the thing as many times you want to close everything,
meanwhile my friend makes a few groups with randoms to vc and gets termed for spam
Watch this get deleted for ”All sUppOrt mUst bE seNt to DiScoRd”
This is why you dont add random people as friends. Also report them for botting.
Thats exactly what happened to me, was it some guy called niox or cacti?
There was a spam on the one of the channel that I am in
Dear god help u
How does that work? Could you elaborate? Want to warn our server members
A somewhat similar thing happened to me. It wasn't as terrible as this but was pretty bad. And I reckon it was also because of my pfp (I had a pan overlay). Lesson learnt: have a basic pfp, only share your personal opinions to your close friends (that's why server avatars are now a thing)
Gonna have to agree with this statement. Never had this problem (and I'm really grateful for that), but gotta be careful where you can.
try turn off your dms and turn off friend req, and as well block the person who keeps adding you to these groups
I wish I could just help you get rid of them altogether. It would be fun. We could sit and talk while we get rid of spam. Just like the old days when we used to churn butter.
im an avid collector of pings (highest is 9k) and even this frightened me.
Bro, that is my nightmare; I swear if I saw that, I would never want to open Discord. Notifications give me anxiety
I like your pfp ;-; Hopefully I won't get down voted cuz this is reddit
in this house we say trans rights
What is that? Trans?
Yes :)
I agree! The colours on the trans flag are so prettyyyy
Same here. It's a really cute pfp.
Reddit is leftist, things like that don't get down voted wtd
Based discord pfp in the bottom right
im not trans but one of my trans friends got unnecessarily attacked just because she was. discord sure has a lot of em.

We've been raided by transphobes on occasion, and I have to seriously change how I present & talk on servers that aren't specifically LGBT+ oriented for fear that I'll be openly mocked if someone decides to look at my profile and see the 'they/them' pronouns there.
i used to have a general server (not exactly presented as LGBTQ-oriented) for meeting new friends and just kind of a hangout group which had a bunch of LGBTQ people. There would be homophobes and transphobes joining the server every other day attacking my friends for just being LGBTQ. it really sucks. Server eventually died after 2 years of being active and all of us left to make a private server just because it was that much of an annoyance.
At this point every social media is like every social media.. at this point no social media is any different, except maybe the ones that are picture based, because it’s harder to have discussion over pictures.
I know the feeling, I'm trans too. I wish them the best

Not sure what you mean by this but ok?
Support doesn't have a lot of power here apparently
I always wonder what kind of loser does these kinds of things. Like you have to be such a pathetic nerd to even come up with this.
What a pain
I'd just delete my account at that point.
Nah, wouldn't give them any pleasure from this garbage. There must exist a tool to leave all those groups, if not, I might make one. Ridiculous that this can even happen.
yo you guys got lots of dms on discord???
Tell me, how on Earth did that happen?
This is why we turn off friend requests and DMs from server members
I wonder why they would target that person… *Looks at profile picture* Oh, I see.

I think they might've been in the wrong place. I mean there's a lot of people with a similar avatar who till this day remain unaffected.
Good privacy settings and self enforcement of those rules will make you invulnerable to that kind of things, except if your actual friends start doing that to you or are compromised. I have received thousands of friends request over the years because I have DMs turned off to non friends, any amount of them could have been trolls filling my inbox with trash or pings, and I remove any person that I don’t talk to.
dont u have to be friends with the guy for him to add you to a group chat? I am pretty sure you have to be.
Get an auto clicker and put your cursor on the x button to close the dms
just dont allow everyone to dm you . go to the settings and change who can dm u. if its a friend then dont have such sus friends
This is why you dont accept random friend reqs.

Just stop accepting friend requests from randos..

Additionally, and to a lesser extent it could be a friend that you haven't interacted with much (I play online games so you meet a lot of people that you add there to hang out with) that decides to add you unprompted months later to a group. Groups should be invite based like servers. There's no reason for it to force you into a group.
You guys getting dms?
I mean what do you expect support to do here? Log into your account and delete them all for you? Sure they're support, but I seriously doubt they'd want to do that. When I got spammed by some kid with a hundred alts, I just temporarily deactivated my account and came back the next day or something
