"Help Me Please" - Channel Redirect #28

Open AwesomeBFM opened 1 year ago

AwesomeBFM commented 1 year ago

My idea was for the bot to send a message in any non-help channel if it sees certain keywords like "help" or such. It would have a CD so it would only send this every 3 minutes.

Example: Welcome to Cortex Development! If you need help I recommend following these steps:

  1. Checkout #⁠minecraft-plugins or the related forum
  2. Be sure to read ⁠[GUIDE] - How To Properly Ask A…
  3. And have fun!

While this may not be the "end all" implementation it should help redirect those who fail to read server-info, the channel description, or just scroll down.

What if instead it deletes the original message and DMs the user with what channels to go to for help.

We could also make a /help with an ephemeral response for that :slightly_smiling_face:
