What changes once you are linked
- Your messages in the bridge channel are reposted with your Minecraft head and name. Your original is deleted and the repost takes its place, so the channel shows the same person the guild sees.
- Guild chat is told your Minecraft name, not your Discord one. Somebody in-game replying to you can type your actual name.
/networthwith no username looks up your own account.- You may be given a role, if the server has one configured — see Link role.
The rules
- One link per Discord account, and one Discord account per Minecraft account. You cannot link two Minecraft accounts, and two people cannot claim the same one.
- The link is not tied to a particular guild. One link, whichever of the bridged guilds you are in.
- Membership is checked against the live roster of every connected guild when you run
/link, and being in any one of them is enough.
Undoing it
user: to unlink
somebody else — for example when a member leaves the guild.
Looking links up
Both are admin-only:/linkslists every linked account./whois <user|username>looks one up in either direction — Discord user to Minecraft name or back.
Things worth knowing
- A reposted message is a new message. You cannot edit or delete it afterwards, because Discord considers it the bot’s message rather than yours.
- Replies keep a jump link instead of Discord’s reply header, for the same reason.
- Mentions in a repost are limited to users. A repost is not subject to your own permissions, so
@everyonein a reposted message does not ping. - If the bot is missing a permission, linking still works — your messages just relay the ordinary way, without the head and name, until an admin fixes it. See Permissions.
