How can i properly get the username of a member in a server? I tried to use <Message>.author.displayName under messageCreate callback but it returned the "global" username (in case of a specific member that didn't migrated to the new format yet, the user#0000 format).

How can i safely fetch the user that was set to be use inside the guild?

<Message>.author is a global User instance, and <Message>.member is a server-specific GuildMember instance
<Message>.member.displayName is probably what you're looking for
