To report a Discord profile picture for obscene or sexual content, open the user’s profile, use the profile’s three-dot menu , and choose Report User Profile ; Discord says profile-based reports can include a user’s avatar, username, custom status, profile banner, or bio, and you should paste the user ID if the form asks for it.

What to include

  • The user’s ID if you can copy it.
  • A short description of why the avatar is obscene, sexual, or otherwise violates policy.
  • Any relevant context, like whether it appears to be explicit content or involves a minor.
  • Screenshots only if the reporting flow requests them.

Best reporting path

  • In-app report: Use this for a normal obscene avatar, harassment, or sexual content tied to a user profile.
  • Discord report form: Use the public report form at discord.com/report if the content is especially serious, such as intimate imagery or content involving minors.
  • Immediate safety: If the image involves a child sexual abuse material issue, Discord says to report it through in-app reporting and it will be escalated appropriately.

Simple wording

You can say:

“This user’s profile picture contains obscene sexual content. I’m reporting the profile avatar for violating Discord’s rules.”

Extra note

Discord’s safety materials also say that if you encounter violating content, you should report it and leave the space rather than engaging with it.
