Users who were banned lost access to their accounts and were unable to log back in. Shortly after the incident, a [https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/13d01h7/anyone_elses_account_randomly_disabled/ reddit post] was created on the r/discord subreddit. Discord staff u/coral-discord informed people that they were investigating the situation and asked affected users for their usernames. Within hours, the issue was resolved and affected users were able to log back into their accounts after resetting their passwords.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

This change removed discriminators from usernames, making it impossible to have the same username as any other user. And as the feature was slowly being rolled out to users, some users wanted to check if their username had been taken. To do this, users would need to make an HTTP request to the Discord Pomelo endpoint. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
