All the bullshit aside.
Why does any account that literally cannot be under 18 need to verify their age? On any service.
If the minimum age to create account + account age is at least 18, they are an adult.

the discord minimum is 13, unless jurisdiction demands it to be higher (ie 16 in germany and australia)

Yeah so, if someone's Discord account is 5 years old, they must be 18. Therefore they should be automatically verified.
(Id verification should be abolished though, crazy we are letting this shit happen)
