Have a good day, sorry for bothering you.
I have a problem and need your help, it's really matter for me. It's my identity
Step by step:
- my account was created in 2015


- I login into Discord every day


- as soon as the opportunity arose to change my nickname, I tried (8 june 2023)

- I got an error, It was told that the nickname is not available

- I went to check if it was taken by someone through "Add a friend", nickname wasn't taken, there was no such person in the system, after that i checked availability every day till yesterday

- I wrote about this to support (same day, 08 june 2023) where they sent me to nowhere and said that they could not do anything and did not know what to do with this Error

- yesterday I tried to take my nickname again, got an error, and then I found that someone with an account created in 2019 took my nickname.

Help me to get my nickname, my Name

Best regards, Kior (currenly known in Discord like edwardkoen, before system change was Kior#1580)

    From what I've heard, if you weren't able to get the name but couldn't add the username as a friend, that meant it was "reserved" in the system by that point, but not yet in use by the account it was reserved for.  If a 2019 account got it, that likely means that somehow, the reservation probably went into the system for their account instead of yours.  Despite Discord stating that account username changes would roll out by year and Nitro status (2015 Nitro, 2015 Regular, 2016 Nitro, 2016 Regular, etc.), it's been a complete disaster because that's not what's happening.

    You're not the first person experiencing this issue, people in servers I'm in are also having the same problems where accounts from 2019 - 2023 are getting access to reserved usernames even without Nitro on their accounts.

    Regretfully, though I can't confirm this directly so take it with a grain of salt, I've seen people mention that reporting the issue doesn't yield any results either, only ending in the users being told "Sorry that this happened, but you can just add periods, underscores, or numbers to get the name you want."  Saw a thread on Twitter where someone got their username swiped and the person who took it tried to sell it back to them for $800, too, which is something we all knew was going to come out of this update.

    I'm not sure if you'll be able to get your name back, but I wish you the best of luck and hope that you somehow do.  If we're lucky, this update will cause enough issues and headaches for Discord staff that they'll revert it, but in the mean time, just keep trying I guess.
