Creating an Account

Creating an account takes less than a minute. Head to app.gathertocraft.com and click Get Started.

Step 1: Choose how to sign up

Section titled “Step 1: Choose how to sign up”

Use the sign-up form. You’ll need:

  • Name: your display name. It follows Minecraft username rules: 3–16 characters, using only letters, numbers, and underscores (steve_123 is fine, steve#1 is not).
  • Email: used for verification and notifications.
  • Password: at least 8 characters, with an uppercase letter, a number, and a special character.

Complete the captcha (a simple checkbox), and you’re done.

Step 2: Verify your email

Section titled “Step 2: Verify your email”

We send a verification email to the address you signed up with.

  • The link is valid for 24 hours.
  • Clicking it signs you in automatically.
  • Didn’t get the email? Sign in anyway. You’ll be offered a Resend option.

Step 3: Complete onboarding

Section titled “Step 3: Complete onboarding”

The first time you sign in, a short onboarding tour walks you through the platform:

  1. Welcome: a quick intro to what GatherToCraft does.
  2. Community guidelines: the rules every member agrees to follow.
  3. Link your Minecraft account: optional, but recommended. You can skip this step.
  4. Choose an avatar: pick one of the preset avatars (or use your Minecraft skin if you linked your account).
  5. Link Discord: optional, for Discord notifications. You can skip this step.
  6. Join the Discord server: a community hub for announcements and help.
  7. Explore: you’re ready to go!

Choosing a secure password

Section titled “Choosing a secure password”

Passwords must be at least 8 characters and include an uppercase letter, a number, and a special character. We also check every new password against lists of passwords from known data breaches. If yours is compromised, we’ll ask you to pick a different one.

You can enable two-factor authentication (2FA) anytime in Settings → Security for an extra layer of protection.
