Whoops! Unable to accept invite
Why am I not able to accept a Discord invite?
There are various reasons why you are unable to accept a Discord invite. If the link that you got is corrupted or has not been copied correctly, you will fail to join the server. Also, if your profile is connected to 100 servers, which is the threshold, or if it’s banned from that particular server, you won’t be able to join it.
Fix Discord Unable to accept invite
If Discord is unable to accept an invite, follow the solutions mentioned below.
- Ask them to resend the link
- Make sure that you have not joined more than 100 servers
- Check if you are banned from the server
- Check your Internet connection
- Find out Discord’s server status
- Open Discord in Incognito or InPrivate Mode
- Clear Browser and Discord Cache
Let us talk about them in detail.
1] Ask them to resend the link
Sometimes, when copying a server link, we tend to miss out on certain fragments of the URL, which causes the link to become impaired. Also, if the link is used many times, it can become obsolete due to security reasons. So, if you are facing such issues, ask the server owner to recreate and resend the link to you. Once they resend the link, you can try to join.
2] Make sure that you have not joined more than 100 servers
Discord has limited a profile from joining more than 100 servers. If you have joined more than the threshold, you might want to unsubscribe a few to join the one in question.
3] Check if you are banned from the server
Next, we need to ensure you are not banned from the server. To do so, ask one of your friends to join. If they are unable to join, that means you are banned from the server. You might want to contact the admin of that server to remove the restriction.
4] Check your Internet connection
You need to check if your Internet connection is slow and your bandwidth is low. To check that, use one of the free Internet speed testers. If your bandwidth is low, you need to power cycle your router. To do the same, turn off the device, unplug all the cables, plug them back in after some time, and finally turn the device on. In case power cycling is to no avail, ask your ISP to resolve the issue.
5] Find out Discord’s server status
You need to find out if Discord’s server status is down. To do the same, you can either go to discordstatus.com or use one of the free down detectors. If the server is down, there is nothing you can do other than wait for the issue to be resolved.
6] Open Discord in Incognito or InPrivate Mode
If there is some issue with the browser that you are using, such as corrupted cache or cookies, due to which you are unable to join a Discord server. So, to resolve the issue, we need to open Discord’s website in Incognito or InPrivate mode. If the issue is caused due to corrupted caches and cookies, this will do the trick. However, we can not always open Incognito mode to use Discord as that would require you to log in every time, hence, move to the next solution to clear caches.

7] Clear Browser and Discord Cache
As mentioned earlier, corrupted caches and cookies can cause various and peculiar issues for you. In order to resolve the issue, you need to clear caches. So, go ahead and clear Chrome and Edge’s caches. If you use the client application, you must clear the Discord cache. Once done, check if the issue is resolved.
Hopefully, you can resolve the issue using the solutions mentioned in this post.
