When will Replit's discord URL be returned to its rightful owner?

Description of the problem (please keep it simple and short):
https://discord.gg/replit isn’t run by (or even supported by) Replit.

Explain what you were trying to do:
See if Replit’s guild name was saved

What areas or features are involved?
User support, Discord chat

At this point it’s not possible. The Replit Discord is no longer official, and some user thought it would be funny to snipe the url.

So I don’t believe it’s possible to get it back unless the sniper gives it up.

The new vanity url is Friends of Replit

Will Replit be forced to either request for it to be assigned to their own (private) guild or let users be sent to a fake guild?

I don’t know but what happened is here

Could you copy it into your message? I can’t access that.

That doesn’t explain the URL being dropped by Replit

Basically they dropped it because it was unofficial and TMK they basically abandoned the link for a while since they were thinking of closing it or smth but then tried to get it back but it was sniped

I wonder if they’ll sue the person who stole it

Find out, replit

At this point, I should just make a Matrix room for Replit. Probably bridged to IRC and others too.

Okay! Can I run bots?

Sure, we can move this conversation elsewhere.

It’s basically impossible for Replit to “sue” them over a vanity.

It’s actually possible, they are infringing on Replit’s copyright.

Replit lost the vanity due to their own mistake, it can’t be fixed unless the person who claimed it wishes to give it back. Replits best bet is to calculate how long the server will have the vanity for based on boosts, # of people boosting & if the server has active boosters.

They got it back already :bullettrain_side::train::train::train::train::train::train:
