Automatic messages

Messages that send themselves, in five different shapes.

Sticky messages

A message that stays pinned to the bottom of the channel. When someone talks, it’s deleted and re-sent below their message.

!sticky add #general {description: Read #rules before posting.}

!sticky existing #general <message>

!sticky update #general {description: New text.}

!sticky view #general

!sticky remove #general

!sticky list

Requires Manage Messages. Aliases: stickymessage, stickymsg, sm.

One per channel, and use it sparingly — a sticky message in a busy channel is deleted and re-posted constantly, which is visually noisy. Best for slow channels where the information genuinely matters: rules in #support, format requirements in #applications.

Scheduled messages

Recurring messages on an interval or a cron-like schedule.

!schedule add #general 6h

!schedule add #general every day at 12am

!schedule add #announcements 1h

You’ll be prompted for the message content. Requires Manage Messages. Aliases: timer, automessage, automsg, am.

!schedule view #general
!schedule list
!schedule remove #general
!schedule clear

Only when people are around

!schedule activity #general on

Skips the message if nothing has been said recently. Stops a scheduled reminder posting into an empty channel at 4am. Aliases: requireactivity, ra, active. Times respect your timezone if you’ve set one.

Dead chat revivers

The inverse of a scheduled message: fires only when a channel has been quiet for a while.

!schedule revive add #general 2h {content: {random: dead chat, someone say something, hello?}}

After 2 hours of silence, the message posts. Aliases: deadchat, dc, inactivity, inac.

Randomise it — a revive message that says the same thing every time reads like a bot nagging people. {random: a, b, c} picks fresh each time. See operators.

Paginated messages

A message members page through with buttons or reactions. Good for rules, FAQs and guides that would otherwise be a wall of text.

Create it

!pagination create {title: Rules} {description: Page 1 — be decent.}

Add pages

!pagination add <message> {title: Rules} {description: Page 2 — no spam.}
!pagination add <message> {title: Rules} {description: Page 3 — no advertising.}

Pick the navigation style

!pagination style <message> buttons
!pagination style <message> reactions

!pagination edit <message> 2 {description: Updated page 2.}

!pagination move <message> 3 1

!pagination remove <message> 3

!pagination view <message> 2

!pagination render <message>

!pagination list

Requires Manage Messages. Aliases: paginate, pages, page, pg.

Response buttons

Attach buttons to any message that reply privately to whoever clicks them. Nobody else sees the response.

!button add <message> primary ❓ "How do I get roles?" {description: Head to #roles and pick what you want.}

!button edit <message> 1 {description: New answer.}

!button style <message> 1 success
!button emoji <message> 1 ✅
!button label <message> 1 "Getting roles"

!button move <message> 2 1

!button remove <message> 1

!button render <message>

Requires Manage Messages. Aliases: responsebutton, rbutton, rb. Buttons are indexed from 1, oldest first. !button view <message> 1 shows what a button is configured to say.

This is a lightweight FAQ that doesn’t clutter the channel. One message, five buttons, five common questions — each answered privately so #general doesn’t fill with the same explanation forty times.
