Don't give them ideas. ?You don't require phone verification for these forums. Why do it for Discord?

This is incredibly naive. As others have pointed out it very easy to get round the verification (there are even guides to do it) so it doesn’t prevent the bad actors. All it does is prevent legitimate users from joining.At the moment no, but we'll see in the future if this is something we can do. Especially at the start I am opting for more restrictive, so I get the pushback, but this absolutely will cut down on spam and trolling (both from the community and external to it) so this requirement will remain in place for now.
then it's a pointless channel and useless for me.It's true we are requiring phone verification for Discord accounts as an anti-spam, harassment, ban evasion, and anti-bot tool. While I can absolutely appreciate the position of those who don't want to provide a phone number, it is a requirement for this Discord.

they should start by hacking my forum account and game account which also don't have 2fa. there is a lot of false sense of security with 2fa, but it can be useful sometimes (and a pain in the butt almost always).lmao all the people who will get their account hacked cuz u need phone number for 2fa![]()
100% this.lmao all the people who will get their account hacked cuz u need phone number for 2fa![]()
A phone number is not required for 2FA100% this.
2FA is a must if you want to use discord.
Double check your account profile maybe and make sure you've got the number added. I haven't run into this before, although in my case I have two accounts, a work account and a personal account, so I have to swap the phone number between them sometimes. You can only have the number associated with one account at a time.I signed up for the discord and when I went to verify my phone number it says I already have my number associated with my discord account and it wouldn't let me verify for Discord with it. I then tried my google voice number and it wouldn't let me use that either. What do I need to do to get verified if my Discord is already associated with my phone number? Thank you so much!
