Linking proves that a Discord account and a Roblox account belong to the same person. Once they're connected, your rank can follow you into our servers and notices can reach you by DM.
Regular members can choose whether to link. Anyone serving in a division or unit has to, so their command can reach them, and the portal asks for it before anything else. See Email and what your account needs.
How to link
- Sign in to the portal.
- Open Account, Discord and press Get a code.
- In any server with Andrew, type /verify and paste your code into the code box.
- Andrew confirms the link and gives you your roles.
Your code works once, for 15 minutes. If it runs out, get a new one.
Running /verify without a code gives you a link to the page with your code. Nicknames are never used to work out who someone is, because anyone can type any nickname.
Keep your code to yourself. Never type a code that someone else gave you, and never give yours to anyone. Staff will never ask for it.
What linking does
- Roles and nickname: in servers where role sync is on, Andrew gives you the roles bound to your rank and groups, and keeps your nickname up to date.
- Your record in Discord: /me shows your rank, what's waiting on you, notices and your next events.
- Lookups: anyone in the server can use /whois or right-click you to see your rank, assignments and awards. Those are the same details the public Personnel Search shows.
- Notices: reminders and notices can reach you by DM, including orders sent after you linked.
- Andrew's tools: commands that depend on your rank, such as /wide, need a linked account.
What's stored
The portal stores your Discord user ID and username, and when you linked. The Privacy Policy has the details.
Unlinking
You can unlink at any time from Account, Discord. Andrew then takes back the roles it gave you, resets your nickname and stops sending you DMs. If you serve in a division or unit, the portal will ask you to link again before you carry on.
Common questions
I linked the wrong Discord account. Unlink it, get a new code, and run /verify from the right account. Linking a different account also replaces the old one.
My roles didn't change. Role sync is off by default in each server, so it may not be running there. If it is, try /update.
I'm not getting DMs. Check your privacy settings allow DMs from people in the server. Andrew also has to be online to send them.
Does linking give me portal access? No. Access comes from your Roblox groups, as explained in Signing in.
