Discord Limits

This page lists the various "limitations" imposed upon servers and/or users in Discord, mostly to answer "how many X can I make?" questions. It's important to note that other than the 5,000 online user limit, none of these can be modified. There is currently no feature/method by which a server or user can bypass the limitations noted below.

  • A user cannot be on more than 100 servers. Once this limit is hit, any server invite will display as "Invite Expired". User with Discord Nitro (Not Nitro Classic) have this limit increased to 200 Servers.
  • The Member limit is 250,000 but can be increased by Discord to 500,000, 700,000, etc.
  • Servers reaching 25,000 simultaneous online members will need to contact Support to be moved to hardware supporting larger servers - this is when members start getting "Server Unavailable" errors.
  • A server can have at most 500 channels1. Once 500 channels are reached, no more channels can be created.
  • A category can have at most 50 channels2. Once 50 Channels are reached, no new Channel can be created in that category.
  • A server can have at most 250 roles. This also included Managed Roles.
  • Servers reaching 1,000 members have the offline members list removed.
