    There's nothing we can do here other than collectively grief together due to lack of support from this company. Hopefully in sometime we can get more people to boycott Nitro and make them desperate to fix the issues they imposed on themselves.

    Mikey If we keep annoying them and not giving them anymore money, they will listen. However, we know guilded does have the same feature as Nitro for free. It will make more people go to guilded more than going to discord often.

    I am working on a video soon to explain what's going on with discord. If they don't care about the customers, but they care about small group of people who got their feelings hurt, the more people will stop paying for nitro and move out of this platform.

    They have such strange measures. If you joining a server gives you a message telling you that the server is bad and u being in it violates ToS, why was this server allowed to exist and why did it allow users to be invited to it?? It doesn't make any sense that a user that is new to a server would just get a message and no time to react. Not everyone is online on discord every minute of the day and some people get on a couple days a week or so on. 

    I got my account disabled without even getting such a notice. No email. No communication whatsoever. They just continue to tell me I violated ToS. I finally figured out what exactly caused this but not from them and they refuse to have a person look at what got me banned. I reposted a picture that is completely innocent in of itself but unfortunately it has a backstory and if you are a normal person who just minds their business and uses discord largely just to talk to their friend group, there is no way you would ever know this. Not to mention the image is posted by everyone else who joined the server and the image is sitting there over and over with no flag whatsoever. It is posted because it is the captcha system of the server to pick the coloured image of 4 images and paste it to prove you are human. No harm was done to anyone anywhere except to all the unsuspecting people like me who got invited to this server under many different guises. All of us get our accounts disabled. Meanwhile the only one doing the harm is the one who set up the server and doing the inviting, but they just get rewarded by discord because they don't get banned and they continue to lure innocent users. 

    Just sharing another example where discord's measures to keep the community safe are simply counterproductive and those who know what can get users banned without investigation can easily exploit the system to harm users instead. 

    My suggestion to them although they probably will never read this is to suspend the accounts as they are doing, but not to have any accounts deleted until a proper human investigation of the account is done to see if the user actually did harm or intended to. I'm sure they can also program an algorithm that detects trends in users accounts being disabled suddenly and realize that these people are victims of something and auto give back the accounts with a message telling them what caused it in the first place to serve as a warning. But ultimately, discord is a social platform and it's really sad that we have to be scared about joining servers because we never know which one could lead to losing our account. Not to mention being scared of a friend suddenly turning out to not be a friend, but actually someone just trying to get ur account banned.

    Shinyeeveelutioncosplayer  For your nitro, this is criminal in my opinion. Try to put in a ticket for a refund and if that gets ignored, request a chargeback to your credit card if that's what you are using. That usually results in your account being banned but if they banned it for you (unjustly especially) then you have all the right. I would just look into that to make sure your next account wouldn't be compromised too.

    They didn't cancel my subscription but rather told me mine would autorenew on Feb 1 unless I stop it which I can't because I don't have access to my account lol.. On the flip side as much as I want to have nitro, I refuse to pay them anything anymore on my new account. They don't deserve my support when they refuse to offer me support.
