 My friends are nice - With this setting, all direct messages sent by users who are not on your Friends List are scanned and age-restricted content is blocked. This setting is good for those who trust their friends not to send content that they would not want to see. This setting is on by default.  Do not scan - With this setting, none of the direct messages you receive will be scanned or blocked for age-restricted content. 17.3.4 Direct Messages (DM) Settings You might only want certain people to contact you. By default, whenever you are in a server with someone else, they can send you a direct message (DM).  You can toggle “ Allow Direct Messages from Server Members ” to block DMs from users in a server who are not on your friends list.  If you have joined any servers prior to turning this off, you will need to adjust your DM settings individually for each server that you have joined.  To change this setting for a specific server, select Privacy Settings on the server’s dropdown list and toggle “ Allow Direct Messages from Server Members ” . Everyone - Selecting this means that anyone who knows your Discord Tag or is in a mutual server with you can send you a friend request. This is handy if you do not share servers with someone and you want to let them friend you with just your Discord Tag.  Friends of Friends - Selecting this means that for anyone to send you a friend request, they must have at least one mutual friend with you. You can view this in their user profile by clicking the Mutual Friends tab next to the Mutual Servers tab.  Server Members - Selecting this means users who share a server with you can send you a friend request. Unselecting this means that you can only be added by someone with a mutual friend.  If you do not want to be open to ANY requests, you can deselect all three options. However, you can still send out requests to other people. 17.3.6 Block Other Users When Needed When you block someone on Discord, they will be removed from your friends list (if they were on it) and will no longer be able to send you DMs. Any message history you have with the user will remain, but any new messages the user posts in a shared server will be hidden from you, though you can see them if you wish. 17.3.5 Friend Request Settings Discord offers different options for friend request settings. 
