    That completely defeats the purpose of the badge. The badge was a "gift" to the people who supported Discord before a certain date. It was a thanks for helping Discord in it's early stages. It is past the "early" stage right now, so why would they give the badge again? Also, if you were able to buy the badge, it would lose value. Discord badges are supposed to be an item of value, that you have to earn. The only badge that you can (and should be able to) buy is the nitro badge.

    To my knowledge they only gifted it because you had nitro before a certain year and date.. and yes per hello there, if everyone could get it, it defeats the purpose. It won't be an "Early supporter" badge then anymore.

    This completely defeats the purpose of this badge – “Early Supporter” is for users who bought Nitro before a certain cutoff date. I don’t think it would be a good idea to provide options for users to get the badge again.

    early supporter was one time rollout given as reward to nitro subscribes because of breaking change in nitro system. there is no reason to make another rollout

    As much as I know a lot of people would like this, it wouldn't even make sense. Newcomers to the badge wouldnt even be "early" supporters anymore, they'd just be supporters... and that's what the current Nitro badge is for

    Dear Discord, it has been really teasing to see all of my friends with the Early Supporter badge while I don't have it. Although I know that there are no plans to bring back the badge, I would pay $50.00 just to get that badge right now, or even more! I sincerely ask you for another chance just for us who bought Discord Nitro (normal and Classic).

    Did you even read before posting Boris? There's no way to get it anymore. I didn't know people care about it either, I happend to have it and don't think it's anything special.

    Who cares that much about what badges you have. I have early supporter and could care less, I bought nitro one singular time years ago and I didn’t even know I had a badge that said early supporter until someone told me. The badge doesn’t give you any extra status or anything, so I would say just don’t worry so much about it lol

    The badge will lose its reputation, if they did gifted it back again. Maybe they'll make a gift of another badge, called "Late Supporter" :P

    I think it is an good idea. On October 10, 2018, PDT, users who subscribe to Nitro after 7:20 pm will have a late supporter badge. An account can only have one badge (early supporter and late supporter)

    It’s fair to retain the value of early supporters and allow those who join Nitro late to get badges.

    There is already badge for current nitro users. No need for another, just deal with it.

    If I were you, make new friends that do not brag about it. the purpose of the badge is for you yo look at on your profile. not to brag to "friends"

    there should be two badges
    early supporters badge and a normal supporters badge.

    when a early supporters badge buys nitro boost they get 2 more boosts

    supporters badge is just a visual badge no benefits

    It does. it rewards the early supporters instead of it being a visual thing

    and about the normal supporters badge it shouldnt be a thing anyway

    I understand that those who supported Discord Nitro up to that point in October of 2018 recieve the badge, and I'm sure those who have the badge would be wary of it coming back again— I know I would be in that situation. However, I do believe that those who have been a Nitro user for a very long time should have a chance at the badge, though I agree it should't be like, 6 months. Not only would this be a great way to motivate Nitro subscribers (cough cough that means $$$ @Discord), but it would be a great way for those who have had nitro for 2 years, for example (wink wink) to show off their dedication to the program. After all, the maximum boosting badge is 2 years (24 months), so why not use that same milestone for the early-supporter badge.
    Although, thinking about it, it is called "early supporter," rather than "long-time" supporter, so perhaps a NEW badge for these individuals, which would also preserve the integrity of the "early supporters?..."

    Maggie why’d you deny my appeal. I’ve done nothing i promise. I beg you reinstate my account before 12 days. It may get deleted forever. I beg you I’ll never ever join a server again. Just please reinstate it. I will do anything I promise Maggie just don’t deny my appeal and please accept it. It matters so much to me. Read my appeal and you’ll understand. Thank you.
