Worked for me as well. Hopefully my account of 11+ years isn't penalized because of this. Not like it matters because I'll quit anyways if forced to send my face or ID.

You probably won't even have to validate then. I guess they can safely assume that you didn't create your account when you were 7 years or younger. They said they expect 80% of users or so to be auto-verified by some other means (account age, typing statistics, whatever)

My account is almost a decade old and discord is still asking me to complete age verification.

Are they rolling this out in stages? I haven't been asked to prove the age of my account.

I'm in the UK (where the law allows them to use heuristics).

So VPN to the UK?

[Retr0id]

What?

[dark-star]

maybe it's different per country shrug

Unfortunately I wouldn’t be so sure that there aren’t any 7 year old Discord users

[LadyCailin]

7 year olds with a credit card?

[dark-star]

to be fair, you don't need a credit card to create a Discord account. And yes, I don't think there are ZERO seven-year-olds on Discord. I just think the number is pretty dang small

Wonderful. Hopefully I'm not retroactively banned for things I said when I was fourteen on servers long gone.
