Discord is a rather popular VoIP chat application that first started as a communication platform for gamers but has since evolved further to include just about everyone.

The application has many features revolving around user privacy that make it a safe place for anyone to use. Apart from blocking individuals from DMs like the way we’ve come to see from just about every chat application on the market right now, Discord also allows server admins to ban people from their servers.

In this article, we’re taking a look at how you can unban users from your server. Note that to unban (or ban) anyone from a server, you either need to be the server owner or have a role with server management permissions.
