How to Set Custom Status on Discord With Best Status Ideas

EvelynBy EvelynNovember 21, 2021
Discord Custom Status

In a world full of “Online”s and “Playing Minecraft”s, be a Custom Status.

You could always choose to have the pre-set statuses on Discord. But the communication giant has launched the customize option for all users for a reason. It’s interesting, personal, and all things fun. So if you’ve missed out on all this goodness so far, fear not.

Follow this article to find out how to set a custom discord status on Desktop, Android, or iOs. Not just that, also find some uber-cool and trendy status ideas that will cover you for quite some time.

What is a Discord status and what are the Active statuses?

Before we move on, let’s brush up real-quick on what these features are.

Discord status, like on other networking platforms, is a way to share your information with other people on your server/friend’s list. Though you have the option of keeping it permanent as well, most users update it frequently.

Originally, statuses were used to update everyone on what you were up to. Therefore, even Discord has a set of pre-made ones that you can choose from. The four choices are:

  1. Online:
    This option lets everyone know that you are on the app, and available for messaging. A green dot will appear next to your username when you select this status.
  2. Idle:
    If you are on-and-off from Discord, this status is for you. This will let people know that if you have not responded to them immediately, you might be away from the app/device for a while.
  3. Do Not Disturb:
    This option will also turn off Desktop notifications for you. You can receive messages but not their alerts. This will tell people that you are busy with something else, but you will be back soon!
  4. Invisible:
    This superpower feature is something we all need IRL. Meanwhile, we can enjoy it on Discord. You can play games, talk to selected people, or go through memes all you want. Others will have no idea about it. To everyone else, you will appear offline.

Best Discord Status Ideas

Sometimes, a creative block makes us run out of good ideas. Fret not, feel free to get inspired (or copy) from our list.

Sharing your information

An ongoing trend that is likely to stay on Discord for a while is sharing your information. You can update Discord status with Twitch handles, Gamer IDs, social media usernames, Youtube IDs, and much more!

Funny

A good laugh hasn’t ever hurt anyone. Be a Pun-expert, or pull out a wickedly funny piece to amuse your audience.

Facts!

Never make the same mistake twice, there are so many new ones to make.

You’re sure to get “SAME” replies on this one!

Life is beautiful… from Friday to Monday.

This is as Discord appropriate as it gets!

I Have A Dreams That One Day My Mom Will Understand That Online Games Can Not Be Paused.

Just in case they don’t take a hint from your active status.

Player mode on. Will reply after I run out of lives!

Riddles

– They had Apples, not dates!

– January 2nd, and no more!

What can you not keep until you give it?

– Your word

What is deaf, dumb, and blind but always tells the truth?

-A mirror!

Ad-dress!

Quotes

Use the good-old trick of quotes, but make them classy!

“You were almost a Jill sandwich!”

A classic quote from the all-time favorite Resident Evil.

You can’t break a man the way you break a dog or a horse. The harder you beat a man, the taller he stands.

Far Cry lovers will dote on this!

Grass grows, birds fly, the sun shines, and brother, I hurt people.  Team Fortress 2

Not literally, of course.

I don’t need to get a life, I am a gamer, I have lots of lives.

Talk about a comeback!

Battles come and go, I am eternal.

– From the League of Legends
