If a Discord user has one of those new names without #0000, the bot calls them by their @-name instead of their display name, which might be very unfitting if others were already taken (pretty stupid system in general). Only the name set in "server profile" actually works, but that would have to be set manually for each group by every user, even if it's identical to the display name. The useNickname setting does not affect this.
Proposed fix: Use display name whenever useNickname is false or no nickname is set. This doesn't even need a new setting to use the @-name, because from what I've seen so far, nobody likes that new system, so the internal username should not matter.
