Do not remove numerical discriminators

Please dont remove numerical discriminators, its been a vital part of the discord user experience for as long as i have used it (December 2015).

I can only think of drawbacks with this system:

People selling accounts with certain usernames/old accounts

Impersonation of well known people ie, youtubers, streamers, artists ect

Hacks and harassment will be more common than ever, someone has a name you want? just harass them until they deactivate, same goes for hacking.

Why remove the number? not everyone has a super unique name? my Vinny/Eirwyn#1515 will just turn into vinnyeirwyn1515. . .honestly how is that any better?

Your platform at 196.2 MILLION users, thousands of people with undoubtedly share the same name theyve had for years and will be forced to come up with the name they dont connect with or having to add numbers at the end of their name.

Discord isnt like twitter, its a communicating and messaging service that allows so many coummunities and people to meet. This change will 100% negatively affect users and the app as a whole, please dont do this.
