Ask HN: Discord account disabled, no response from support?
I use my Discord mostly for talking in tech communities and messaging people. But somehow I got my account disabled on Discord for being involved in "malicious hacking, fraud, account or credit card cracking, and/or attempting to damage a computer network or machine". I've never done anything remotely close to that on Discord. However, contacting support just gives me an initial bot response and 0 follow-up replies.
For some reason Discord also starts deleting these disabled accounts 14-30 days after they're disabled, and I can't find any way to download my account data.
I would really appreciate any pointers from people who've dealt with these kinds situations before, whether it's on Discord or on some other platform that had similar issues.

In an ideal world I could just make another account and forget about this, but there's still data in my old account that I can't export.
