your Discord account is in danger
because you can get banned for being in
a Discord server that got terminated by
Discord which by the way can be any
server and that's where we start off
with the panda byy incident now Panda
was oh spoiler alert it's gone that's
why I use the word was but pandab by was
a Discord server with 300,000 members
but you probably have no idea what
pandab by is I'll forgive you if you
haven't been exposed to the countless
Panay Tik toks of people flexing their
Immaculate drip Panay is basically the
wild west of Chinese e-commerce do you
know how if you go on AliExpress you
might be able to find some uh inspired
Footwear like hm I wonder what these two
stripes are trying to represent Adidas
maybe or what are those racing Crocs and
sometimes if you're a hardcore
AliExpress sleuth that just searches for
Nike Air Jordan 1es you might be able to
find $51 Nike Air Jordan 1es 78% off
Gamers I'm going to be straight up
honest uh these are fake these are
really fake and with panda the exact
opposite of AliExpress panday is just
filled with fake clothes and shoes and
people gobbled this up it's like $300
for like uh the name brand on a T-shirt
and for some reason people are going to
spend less to get a fake version of it
to look like they spent $300 F I'm too
old for this [ __ ] man I don't know
what's going on I'm just a Discord
Channel I'm going to talk about the
Discord server so the Discord server was
normal at the start people are showing
off their hauls and people were showing
off their cosplay of being a late game
vendor in an RP g game but then pandab
did the unthinkable pandab had a data
breach of 1.3 million customers data oh
and it also doesn't help that pandab got
raided and apparently they had 20
football stadiums worth of fake goods
and pandab was going through the ringer
because while the police were raiding
their warehouses people were raiding
their Discord server saying in the case
of an investigation by any federal
entity or similar I do not have any
involvement with this group or with the
people in it I just I don't know how I
am here probably added by a third party
I do not support any actions by the
member of this group we like men yeah uh
people spam this as if it's going to do
anything it it won't by the way but it
was pretty clear the server had no
moderation there was messages like this
first our information now our Hall we
are done send wiener picks to the mods
to let them know how serious we are we
want our fake Jordans back God I can't
take this the Discord server is in
shambles no one is moderating this sh
hole and since it wasn't moderated
people started spamming links to
websites like this one here in this
Reddit thread it's a stockx receipt
generator you go on a little store a
website and you buy receipts for a
whopping $8 someone is going to mail you
a fake stockx receipt so when you buy
fake shoes on Panda you include the
receipt and now you can scam people
Welcome to the Real World Bud all your
favorite franchises are scams now shut
the up before I scam your ass oh [ __ ] I
didn't know I was talking to the fake
Balenciaga mob forgive me I apologize
this definitely isn't being used for a
scam like this person said it could be
used for legitimate reasons no it can't
why would you make a fake receipt either
to scam the company or to scam people
now unfortunately the day of observing
these zoo animals is now gone April 25th
2024 dear valued users we are sorry to
inform you that paby servers on Discord
has been perfect English suddenly
disappeared and we are checking with
officials about the exact reason right
now please don't worry also please join
our temporary Discord server which for
the love of God do not join this Discord
server because here's the thing let's
take a look at the Reddit comments my
Discord account has been limited due to
fraud as I was in the panda server I
wouldn't open another Discord yet as it
could truly mess our Discord accounts up
apparently the Discord admins were on a
little bit of substances because what
happened is that every single person in
the panda by Discord server got their
account Limited because a server that
they joined Panda by broke discord's
rules for fraud because of all those
people spamming those fake receipts
websites and you can see that this
account right now is limited but if they
joined the pandab server again and it
got terminated again then their account
would be very limited or it might skip
all the way to at risk and if you keep
on joining Discord servers that get
banned you're going to keep on getting
these violations which by the way expire
after 2 years so you have to be pretty
careful but if it keeps on happening
your account could get suspended off
Discord you can't build your replica
business and become the new Andrew T
that night sipping the Johnny Walker in
the War Room by myself with him chilling
you can't have any of that now because
now you need to be a hardcore Discord
degenerate and monitor every single
Discord server you're in if you don't
want to be banned and here's the thing
this pandab incident was just to
introduce the problem in fact this is
just one of many instances where people
are getting reported and banned off
Discord for being in a Discord server so
to protect your Discord account or maybe
your Empire of scamming people at your
school we need to understand how these
Discord punishments work now if you try
doing the research yourself good luck
because Reddit is completely worthless
this person said that they punish
everyone in the server no matter what
and that Collective punishment is a war
crime Discord you hear that you're
committing a war crime now unfortunately
for me but fortunately for you I am a
Discord degenerate it's basically a
mental illness on how much I know about
Discord and Discord does not punish
everyone in the in fact it varies a lot
depending on what the server got banned
for if you are in a Discord server that
got banned for harassment and bullying
not everyone gets punished the people
that get punished are the staff of the
server and anyone that actually actively
engaged in the harassment and bullying
like this person here they're trying to
get it removed from their account they
100% participated in the harassment and
bullying but for Discord servers that
are focused on illegal stuff like cyber
crime so we have fraud malware scams
this one specifically is a scam or more
really bad illegal stuff revolving
around child safety you probably know
what I'm talking about then every single
person on the server usually gets
punished there's a little bit more
Nuance to it I'll explain a little bit
later but the main thing I want to point
out is this Reddit user experience here
their friend was invited to an escape
from tarov server they played with
someone once and then they completely
forgot about it just like the pandab
server it was completely normal nothing
you should be concerned about but it
turns out one of the people in the
server shared this type of content on
the server and then the server got
reported and terminated for child
endangerment and since that was the case
every single person on the server got
punished so you could be in a completely
normal Discord server everything could
be good until one bad person ruins the
whole thing for everyone and gets
everyone's account in trouble but when
you do get punished for being in a
Discord server how long and severes the
punishment well most of the time people
just can't join Discord servers for like
a day in fact if we look the Child
Safety one and look at their punishments
they can't DM people they can't friend
request people they can't really join
servers and they can't upload
attachments for one whole day especially
around child safety this seems like it
should be a lot more but the important
thing is that the punishment stays on
your accounts for two whole years and
that's important because your account
gets limited and if you keep on joining
these bad Discord servers you will
eventually be punished by being banned
off Discord because if you join a
Discord server that got banned for child
safety once okay it could be an accident
could be a mistake but if you do it
three times then you're probably a creep
that really should be off Discord but
this is where things get kind of
confusing because people are saying that
they're being punished for just visiting
a Discord server once specifically for
the fraud and illegal stuff and Discord
knows exactly when you join a Discord
server and just visit it once versus you
joining a Discord server and looking
through all the channels which would be
really bad if it was one of those child
endangerment servers but Discord is able
to figure that stuff out because Discord
tracks every single thing you do on the
platform and you can actually look at
Discord tracking you live so let's say
this is a really bad server and inside
of this bad Channel it has a lot of bad
images where if I looked at it I'm
committing a crime well if I click on
this channel you'll see that there's
this science request and inside of this
tracking it shows you that I opened this
Channel with this channel ID which
correlates with the Channel with all
those bad images so Discord can use this
information to figure out if I actually
engaged and looked at the illegal stuff
inside the server so if you join and
then immediately leave you should be
fine but according to some people on
Reddit someone joined one of these
servers and then immediately left and
their account got straight up disabled
they just got banned instantly this
person could be lying it is Reddit but
it could also be a problem with Discord
let's be honest they probably use AI to
figure all this stuff out and their AI
just might be way too sensitive there's
definitely a problem here with Discord
but this whole punishment system that
tracks you is even more scuffed than you
think let's say you're trying to be a
goodie T shoes you stumble across a
Discord server that has a lot of no no
content you go through each one of the
channels and you report all these bad
messages you did a good job and the
server gets terminated for child
endangerment well here's a thing when
you were going through that server and
going through each one of these channels
Discord was tracking you doing that
which means that your Discord account is
also going to be punished which is
exactly what happened with this person
they visited a server they reported the
server and then left and then weeks
later they got the exact same message
and they got punished for being in the
server and this is an actual issue this
is why I have so many Discord alt
accounts because when I need to report a
server I need to make sure that I'm not
using my main Discord account because
I'm putting it at risk when I report a
Discord server so how do you protect
your sacred Discord account from being
punished from things like this well make
sure to use an ALT account when you
check some random Discord server that
you just aren't too sure about and since
you can be punished if one of the
servers you're in turns into a no no
server then make sure to leave servers
that you aren't active in and just as a
side note how in the absolute do you
guys get put in these fraud AI profit
servers like one of my viewers got in
trouble for being in a Discord server
that sells accounts another viewer of
mine got in trouble for being in a
server that tries to hack accounts how
the [ __ ] are all of you guys in these
like fraudulent Discord servers well the
answer is just right underneath the
message they verified with restore cord
this person here verified with restore
cord these people join these servers
because of something called the join
servers for you permission now before I
get into some Mega rant and dive behind
the scenes of a whole bunch of scam
servers to protect your Discord account
from joining random servers you need to
go to your Discord account go to your
user settings go to authorized apps and
remove and deauthorize any Discord bot
that has the join servers for you
permission all righty Gamers you've made
it this far which means Buckle in your
seat bels because I'm going on a rant
scammers can get you banned off Discord
let's just let's just think about that
for a second this is [ __ ] stupid and
there's two ways scammers can do it they
can either do it accidentally because
they're trying to scam a whole bunch of
people or they can intentionally Target
you when you join a scam Discord server
they usually ask you to verify with a
bot like restore cord because here's the
thing when you visit the website and you
verify it's going to ask you to
authorize a Discord bot that can join
servers for you what these scammers will
do is that if their Discord server gets
terminated which by the way you'll get a
warning for because you're in the server
then they're just going to make another
Discord server and then add you back to
it so now you're added back to another
fraudulent Discord server that server is
going to get terminated and you're going
to get another warning you're confused
by you're joining a whole bunch of
servers you don't know what's going on
and you get added to another fraudulent
scam server that server gets terminated
you get another warning and kaboom baby
you just got banned off Discord for
doing absolutely nothing so a scammer
just accidentally banned you off Discord
ORD because they were trying to scam you
over and over again but things get much
worse because scammers can intentionally
get you banned off Discord all in one go
so just as a little bit of a background
these uh Discord scammers they all kind
of group up in other Discord servers
where they try selling Discord members
we have this configure fella here who is
selling rewards offs which basically
mean they're selling members who fell
for a fake reward server and it turns
out this configure fella is uh in that
Roblox server and also in my server okay
I I'll deal with that later but they are
selling 1 th000 members for $2 I'm going
to be real with you for a second but
this person is a [ __ ] idiot they are
wasting all of their time going through
all of this scamming and tricking all
these kids with these fake Roblox
servers to make $6 when you know they
could just work a minimum wage job and
make a lot more money than $6 for
however many hours of their time they're
spending doing this but anyways it's
confirmed that this person is a is a
[ __ ] and let's say they didn't like how
I called them a [ __ ] they're mad at me
and I made the grave mistake of
verifying what with one of the scam Bots
that they own and since that
verification bot can join servers for me
this configure person could make a new
Discord server add me to the Discord
server and what they do is they uh they
make me the owner of the server because
here's the thing when you give someone
ownership of a Discord server it's not
like a thing you have to mutually agree
upon the second I click transfer
ownership my ALT account is now the
owner no questions asked on my alt
account I don't get a popup saying oh
are you sure you want to be the owner of
the server no it just happens and now
that this account account is the owner
of the server all configure has to do is
just get an ALT account join the server
and spam it with a whole bunch of bad no
no material and once all that bad stuff
is sent they are going to report the
message on another account for being
this no no content the Discord server is
going to get banned and this account is
the owner of the illegal Discord server
it gets completely nuked off Discord you
get completely banned and the worst part
is that there's no chance to appeal
protect your Discord account any who
Gamers that's all I got bye-bye i' love
