Why Does Discord Server Get Deleted?
There are two reasons why a Discord Server can get deleted; the first one is that the admin of the server has deleted it or it was deleted by Discord itself. Why would Discord delete a server you may ask? Well, if Discord feels that the server is violating its term of conditions then it may delete the server immediately without notifying the owner.
Sharing adult or violent content on your channels is the easiest way to get your server deleted by Discord. So you need to be careful of what type of content is shared by your friends on your server. Also if people vote your server as spam then also your server can get deleted.
How To Recover Deleted Server Or Channel On Discord?
Sadly, it is not possible to recover deleted Discord server or channel once it is deleted by either you or Discord itself. I am not saying it myself but there is an official tweet from Discord that validates this statement.

Backup Your Discord Server And Channel
To create a backup you will need a special tool also known as a bot that creates a backup of your server, channel, roles, settings, etc. The best bot for backing up your Discord channel or Server is Xenon. Here’s how you can use Xenon bot to backup your channels.
1. Go to the Xenon Website. Now you need to click on the Invite button.
2. Next the Discord tab will open, if you have already logged into your Discord account on the same browser it will ask you to choose the server that you want to backup.
If you are not logged in you can log into your Discord account and then select the server.
3. Once the server is selected click on Continue and the Xenon bot will be added to your server.
Create A Backup Using Xenon
Once the Xenon bot is added to your server, now you can create a backup of it easily. To do so follow these steps;
1. Go to the server to which you have added the bot. Now load any channel on the server and type “/”. With this, some options will load on your screen. Select the option that says “/backup create“.
2. When you select the backup option, a backup of your server will be created. It will return a unique ID which will be used to check the info of the backup and to load the backup when you want it. So keep the unique ID safe with yourself, you can also note it down somewhere.
Load The Backup
Once you have created the backup you can load it later at any point in time. If you want to load the backup on the same server then you can type the command “/backup load” and then press enter.
Next, you need to paste or write the code (unique ID) returned while backing up the server.
After that, press enter and the backup will load. It will restore the deleted Discord channels, roles, etc.
If your server is deleted then you can load the server on any other server by entering the code “ā /backup load backup_id: <UNIQUE_ID>“.
