How to register for an account?

Make sure you check "No, create an account now" button if you are using the second method. Once this is done, you will receive an Email prompting you to confirm your Email address.

How to link your character?

Go to (https://www.mineplex.com/link/). You will receive a command that is in /link XXX-XXX-XXX format. Copy the command to your clipboard. Login to either us.mineplex.com or eu.mineplex.com in-game and paste the command in chat. You will get a messaging saying you have successfully linked your character with your forum account. Since this requires you to login to our servers, if you are banned on our servers, unfortunately you won't be able to link your character until you are unbanned. You are allowed to submit punishment appeal and support ticket even if you do not have a linked character.

For the time being, users without a linked character will be able to post in Help section.
