Begging, Gifts, Nitro & Personal Benefits
Do not repeatedly beg, pressure, guilt, manipulate, or harass staff or members for Discord Nitro, subscriptions, boosts, money, gift cards, games, items, commissions, loans, donations, free work, roles, promotions, access, shout-outs, partnerships, or any other personal benefit.
A single polite request in an appropriate place may be acceptable when the recipient is free to decline. It becomes misconduct when you repeat the request, move it to DMs, ping multiple people, follow the person between channels, involve friends, manufacture urgency, or continue after silence, refusal, or a direction to stop.
Do not claim that staff owe you a gift because you are active, loyal, struggling, celebrating a birthday, previously donated, helped the server, won an unofficial promise, or know an owner. Do not imply that refusing makes someone selfish, causes self-harm, ends a friendship, or will trigger retaliation.
Staff roles and moderation decisions must never be exchanged for Nitro, boosts, money, gifts, labour, affection, private contact, favourable treatment, silence, votes, or recruitment. Offering, requesting, or hinting at such a trade is bribery or abuse of influence and must be reported.
Do not impersonate a giveaway, fabricate proof of a promised gift, use chargebacks, reclaim a voluntary gift through threats, or pressure a recipient to return something that was clearly given without repayment terms. Genuine payment or delivery disputes should use the proper support and provider process.
