Hi everyone,
I’m looking for advice from anyone who has experience with Discord’s Privileged Intents approval process.
My bot has already reached 100 servers, and now it cannot be added to more servers because it needs approval for Privileged Intents, especially:
- Message Content Intent
- Server Members Intent
The bot is an RPG/game bot with many player progression features, such as:
- inventory system
- hunt system
- fishing / mining
- crafting
- leaderboard
- player profiles and saved progress
- other RPG commands and game activities
Currently, the bot uses prefix commands like !command, so Message Content Intent is very important for the bot to read and respond to player commands properly. Some features also rely on member/server data, so Server Members Intent is also important for the bot to work correctly.
I already submitted the Request approval for Privileged Intents form, but I have been waiting for more than 2 weeks and still have not received any update. Because the bot has already reached the 100-server limit, new users cannot invite it to their servers anymore.
I would like to ask:
- Is waiting more than 2 weeks normal for Privileged Intents approval?
- Is there any way to check or track the status of my request/ticket?
- Is there any way to speed up the approval process, or should I submit more details somewhere?
- For an RPG bot using
!commands, is there any temporary workaround while waiting for Message Content Intent approval? - Should I migrate to slash commands to avoid this issue in the future, or is Message Content Intent still usually acceptable for this type of bot?
Any guidance, experience, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
