Additional Information
One week from today, May 18th, we will implement a new permissions system on our Discord server. Users who do not have a Discord account synced with their WebFlake account will no longer be able to read or write messages on our Discord server. Those users will still have access to read the #welcome channel that will display a reminder that they need to link their accounts. If you do not wish to link your personal Discord account to WebFlake, then create another Discord account (it's free). Once you have linked your accounts, your permissions will return to as they are now. If you already have a role assigned (Uploader, Support, Staff), this will not affect you.
This change will assist with "why am I banned on the site" or "unban me from WebFlake" messages (i.e. preventing them entirely), prevent users from circumventing bans and/or using different names to conceal their identity, and will also allow us to get more creative with various roles.
We are unable to enforce name syncing at the moment, so we ask that you contact us to have your nickname changed on the Discord server to match whatever name you chose on the site. This won't affect your nickname on other servers nor will you be able to do it yourself. You can tag any member of Staff on Discord or PM us directly on the site to have your nickname changed.
