One of the things that really confounds me about Discord is that so many groups will just keep coming back, even after they're booted, like they're in an abusive relationship.

I used to follow some of the console homebrew / piracy Discord servers from a distance. (For some reason, this was where you had to go to get some of the homebrew, even if it wasn't related to piracy.) They would always complain about servers getting shut down and people getting banned, but for some reason the idea of just moving to a different service was unacceptable. They need to be on Discord to get their 7th account banned and set the server back up for the 10th time. They could just host it on some service that won't shut them down (or self host), but they'd rather just keep getting banned on Discord. Why?
