Nickname changed → Dehoist nickname.
What it does
Clean a name that jumps the member list or can't be read: leading !, ., odd characters and zalgo go. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 2 values later steps can use. Find it under Protection in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep the server safe: clean a name that jumps the member list or can't be read: leading !, ., odd characters and zalgo go.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire

Leave unwired for the member who started the flow, or wire one in, like Member from Find member.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a member. e.g. @Alex
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
