Unless the account user allows you, we wouldn’t recommend trying to get anyone’s IP from Discord or any other platform. IP addresses count as personal data in some cases, and it is illegal to find someone’s IP and use it for malicious purpose. 

Is It Possible to Get Someone’s Ip From Discord?

Getting someone’s IP directly from Discord is not possible, but unfortunately, some people use malicious links in chat and try to trick users into clicking on them. Once the user clicks on the link, it redirects it to a website that can be legit in some cases. And then the person who owns the website can check their visitor IP addresses in the visit log. 

And it’s not just Discord; it can happen on Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp, or any other social media platform. So if a stranger sends you a link in chat, it could be a hacker trying to get your IP for malicious purpose.

What Is a Discord Ip Resolver? Is It Possible to Obtain Someone’s Ip Using It?

Discord IP resolver is a tool that pretends to pull IP addresses of Discord users. It does not work, look at the red circle on this image to figure out why.

Some people think it’s possible to pull discord IP addresses by using Wireshark (a network protocol analyzer) but just like those fake IP resolver tools it does not work. 

How to IP Ban Someone in Discord?

If someone is misbehaving or doing something that’s against the terms of service of the platform, you can block them from accessing your server.

Step 2: Sign-In using your credentials.

Step 3: Select the server and look for the user you want to ban.

Step 4: You’ll be able to see if they are hosted on text or VoIP channel.

Step 5: Right-click on the name of the user and a menu will appear.

Step 6: Click on ban, and you’ll see a pop-up for deleting comments of the user you are banning, and you can also enter the reason for banning.

Step 7: Click on the ban button, and they won’t be able to access your server anymore.

What to Do if Someone Pulls Your Ip From Discord?

If someone pulls your IP using malicious links or using other ways, you can contact Discord and inform them everything.

Don’t panic, even if someone gets your IP, it’s not a big deal. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) provide a dynamic IP address that will change occasionally, and they are public IPs, it means you share your IP address with multiple people. 

Is Discord Safe From Hackers?

Discord is a lot safer than it used to be, but you need to make sure you don’t click on links sent by unknown people, don’t share personal info with strangers, and be careful when you add a bot. 

Below we have described why Discord is safe to use. 

IP Security

Discord has a client-server architecture, and your IP is secured and can’t be obtained using third-party tools. 

Email Verification

Login-attempts from different IPs require verification through email, so if anyone tries to get into your account, they will not be able to access it. 

Two Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security, and it’s widely used by social media platforms. If you have enabled 2FA using Google authenticator or Authy, you’ll need an authentication code every time you log in to your account. 

Streamer Mode

Discord has a mode for streamers that hides sensitive information such as your email and invite links. So if this feature is enabled, you can open OBS or XSplit without worrying about anything.
