Some groups are don't lose their owners when the owner leaves

Sometimes, but not all of the time, when a person abandons a group they own, the leader stays attached to the group in some areas of the website but not others, leading to issues, like ownerless groups being unable to be claimed.

Examples of these types of groups:

In the v2 groups api, these groups are listed as having an owner:
https://groups.roblox.com/v2/groups?groupIds=36040781

In the v1 groups api, these groups are listed as having no owner:
https://groups.roblox.com/v1/groups/36040781

Expected behavior

When the owner leaves the group, the ownership should be properly removed and not partially removed.

But… these groups do have owners? Am I missing something?

All the groups have 0 members, no one is in them at all, not even an owner

Oh, I see. Missed that. Then when going through the “owners” other groups, that group is not listed.

The above communities have been fixed. They were in an unstable state due to partial failures during community creation, an issue we’ve already resolved. Thank you for the report!
