Instructions on claiming Connect Plus and what might go wrong.
Connect Plus is easy to get. You just have to pledge a qualifying tier on our Patreon. When that's done, your account should be automatically upgraded to a Connect Plus account within an hour. When pledging on Patreon, you must have a Discord account linked. If you do not, we will not be able to locate you in our database and add you there. If an hour has passed and your account has not been upgraded, you should join our support server and open a ticket.

How the Connect Plus Clock Works
Instead of having Patreon instantly send us a request saying that there was a Patron, we do something different. We instead check for new Patrons every hour. If there's a new Patron, it adds it to our database.
Why do we do it this way?
We do it this way because we could not figure out how Patreon webhooks work, so instead we just make API calls every hour. Will we get ratelimited? Guess we'll find out. The way we do it isn't very well tested, so errors upon donation may occur.
