By publishing this post, in addition to our official announcements across all our socials, we want to provide more details about the current situation, what it means for lookup platforms as a whole, and how it will affect end users moving forward.
Discord has decided to block bots from all lookup platforms, including EYERCORD Lookup. Competing platforms have also become unavailable. Developers of these services have received emails from Discord notifying them of violations of the Developer Terms. Some developers, including our team, have submitted appeals and are currently awaiting a decision from Discord. You can see an example of such a message in the screenshot below.
Email for developers by DiscordWe reached out to other developers of similar lookup tools, and they confirmed that their services were affected as well. Many of them have also filed appeals and are hoping for a review of Discord’s decision. For now, however, all lookup platforms are non-functional.
When you request information about a user or a bot, the lookup platform sends the provided ID to the Discord API through a service bot, retrieves basic public information about that profile, and returns it to the user interface. Because Discord has now banned these service bots, the platforms have effectively lost their data sources. For example, EYERCORD Lookup currently returns empty or incomplete data fields for any user or bot.
EYERCORD Lookup return empty fieldsOther platforms face the same problem — either returning incomplete information or being completely shut down by their developers. Among the affected services are:
Many users have relied on platforms like EYERCORD Lookup to verify user and bot identities before granting them sensitive roles — such as community moderators — or before allowing them to join their servers. These platforms have been instrumental in identifying whether bots were legitimate or malicious, helping communities ensure that the people and bots they interacted with were trustworthy and safe.
EYERCORD Lookup also included a set of knowledge blocks for thousands of users and bots. This information — collected exclusively from publicly available sources and kept up to date by our algorithms — allowed users to verify whether a bot was genuine or a copy, and whether a user had previously been involved in harmful activities such as raiding, spamming, or fraud.
Moreover, EYERCORD Lookup was tightly integrated with EYERCORD Blacklist and Topol’ Blacklist, which maintain records of users and bots that pose risks to communities or violate Discord’s rules and guidelines.
Disabling the lookup platforms exposes many users to potential risks, as they lose an additional layer of safety and verification they have come to depend on. The EYERCORD Blacklist is also affected — it currently cannot update properly because creating new reports requires EYERCORD Lookup’s functionality to fetch metadata about reported accounts or malicious bots.
Without lookup platforms, the entire ecosystem of moderation, trust, and safety tools becomes significantly weaker, leaving both community owners and everyday users more vulnerable.
Like many other developers of similar platforms, we have submitted an appeal to Discord and are currently awaiting their response. We sincerely hope that they will reconsider their decision.
Until Discord reviews and reverses this action, neither our platform nor any third-party lookup platforms will be able to resume normal operation. The EYERCORD Blacklist service will be temporarily moved to archive mode until EYERCORD Lookup is restored.
We truly hope that Discord will take into account the positive impact these platforms have had on the safety and transparency of the community. We will also share this article with them as part of our appeal to highlight why such platforms should remain available to users.
Any further updates will be published here and announced through our official social media accounts.
