Don't forget that we're comparing:

1. someone who broke site rules

2. someone who did not break site rules

I advocate group #1 suffering the consequences for their actions. I do not advocate group #2 losing access due to factors outside their control. Not sure why you're getting the two confused.

The person in this original post broke Discord's posted rules. So this whole debate entirely falls under the category of #1. That's why I'm confused here.

So I'm glad to see we agree. When you break the rules, it's OK for the site to ban you. So in this instance, Discord did nothing wrong, they banned someone who broke the site's rules.
