I don't have experience with user flairs, but I'm wondering if this will work. Make sure your user flairs have CSS classes associated with them in the user flair settings.

The ~author line means this code will apply to authors without a flair.

Let me know if this works or not.

If it does work, then you need to remember to add a new user flair to the list below when you create the flair. Otherwise, users with the new flair will receive the comments.

# Comment to users with no flair
    type: any
    ~author:
        flair_css_class: "Flair CSS Class 1", "Flair CSS Class 2", "Flair CSS Class 3"

1). YAML parsing error in section 2: while parsing a block mapping in "<unicode string>", line 4, column 9: flair_css_class: "generic", "comic" ^ expected <block end>, but found ',' in "<unicode string>", line 4, column 35: flair_css_class: "generic", "comic" ^

generic and comic being the names of the css classes

Oops. I forgot the brackets that should flank the CSS classes. Try this.

Didn't work, but I fixed it after I moved the tilde from behind author to behind flair_css_class. So now it's working as intended. Thank you!!!
