flag it's not the most important thing in the world but,

if any setting in my FAF accout is changed by itself, how can my rating, pw and name be safe??
is there any way users can access their settings?

The flag is probably determined by your ip, so maybe your ip changed and faf has the new one in the wrong categorie.

IP geolocation is notoriously unreliable.

Also, it's about the best way to do it, short of actually asking, soo....
