Remove the discord.gg requirement from the support invite.

Suggestion

Make it possible to use a website url as a support invite. I have a website that redirects to the right invite url to make it easier for me to manage them. But I can't use that on dbl, because you require the invite to be a "discord.gg" url.

I don't see a use for this, bot invite links sure, but the support link?

It allows you to have your website redirect to the invite, so you can remove it and easily change it in the event of a raid, without having to change the support link on DBL (or other listing sites). Also you can have analytics to analyse the URL if you put some kind of referrer query string and find out where your invites are coming from.

Makes sense, but you can 1) revoke the invite on discord 2) see how many people used the invite...on discord

[fatchan]

Yes, but then you have to replace the invite link anywhere you posted it bot lists, social media, info channels in the server, etc. It makes sense to have a permanent link with interchangable invite behind it. Also think -- what is easier to remember (without having a partnered discord server)

something.com/invite

discord.gg/asdfghjk

Plus its not about how many times an invite used, its about the source. You can have yourwebsite.com/invite?source= And track how many invite link clicks you get from each of those sources. Also helps determine rate of people who click the invite link and actually accept/join the server

I temporarily solved the problem by adding a small js script to my long description. (Only possible if you are certified)

<script>
  var a = document.getElementById('support');
  a.href = "your invite link"
</script>

We're not going to remove the discord.gg requirement on support server invites.
