A Discord display name is not valid proof. Your report MUST INCLUDE the following Discord proof to be considered valid:

1. A screenshot of their Discord Profile (Example)*
   
2. A Gif or recording of you collecting their Discord unique ID (Example)
3. An explanation of how you made the connection between their unique ID and Sythe profile.

*Note: Even with a screenshot of someone's Discord profile you will likely be asked for #2 as well.

How to view someone's Discord profile

1. Right click their name either at the top of your DM with them (Example)
   
2. Click view profile and screenshot it (Example)

How to collect someone's Discord Unique ID

Im sorry i didnt knew that i needed to make a video before buying gold. Currently im unable to find vigourgp and the uid mentioned above on discord, which would be the proof of the actual person banning me.

Did you join a discord server, or did you add them and conduct the trade in a private DM?

i joined the discord server, while being in it, i check if i am talking to the correct person through uid and his user id.

 

he did not join my server. he probs joined a fake server which looks like mine.

and the fact that your username and uid is banned for me?

im sorry for your loss, but you did join the wrong server and not mine im certain of that.

 

@yogurt the link you sent me for the discord server you joined matches a known imposter server, as seen in this report.

You also mentioned that you googled 'VigourGP' and joined the imposter server from a google search result.

I am sorry for your loss, but there is nothing further I can do for you here. It might be worth giving the thread below a read as well to help avoid these situations in the future.

A warning to all Discord traders
