Linking My Minecraft Account

I've just joined the forums today and i've been looking around on how to link my minecraft account. Eventually i figured out that in order to link your accounts, you have to type /forum in game, So, i did. But when i followed the link you get in chat i just got an error message on the forums saying the url was invalid? how do i fix this?

also, i dont know if this is the right place for forum related questions, i just saw the Questions tab and figured it belonged in here

 

Wynn API is down so you won't be able to link your account until that's fixed. We don't know when that will be. And yep, right place for questions!

 

okay thank you!

 

that helped alot
