My bot responds to any prefix???

[Slurpity]

const Discord = require('discord.js'); const bot = new Discord.Client();

const token = '(token taken out for obvious reasons)';

const PREFIX = '.';

var version = '0.420.69'

bot.on('ready', () =>{ console.log('Slurp Bot is now online!'); })

bot.on('message', message=>{

let args = message.content.substring(PREFIX.length).split(" ");

switch(args[0]){
    case 'website':
        message.channel.send('https://www.coolmathgames.com/')
        break;
    case 'info':
        message.channel.send('Version ' + version);
        break;
    case 'purge':
        if(!message.member.hasPermission("PRIORITY_SPEAKER", explicit = true)) return message.channel.send('You do not have permission to execute this command!')
        if(!args[1]) return message.channel.send('Please send an amount of messages to delete!')
        message.channel.bulkDelete(args[1]);
        break;

}

})

bot.login(token);

Okay, so my bot responds to any prefix... The prefix I use is "." so I should do .(command) for it to work right? no. I can do anything; f(command) y(command) ?(command). Any help? I am a complete noob to this.

(For the screenshot, Slurp-Bot's prefix is ";" and Slurp-Test-Bot's prefix is ".")

It’s because your bot doesn’t check if the message starts with the prefix

Add this to the command handler: If(!message.content.startsWith(prefix) return;

@Slurpity, a representation of what @MrDiamond64 meant is shown below:

const Discord = require('discord.js'); // Imports discord.js library
const client = new Discord.Client({disableMentions: 'everyone'}); // You can use "bot" instead of "client"

client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`${client.user.username} is online!`);
  // This will get the username of your bot without you having to set it manually
});

client.on('message', (message) => {
  var prefix = '!' // This is your bot's prefix, in your case you can use anything
  var args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).replace('^\\s*', '').split(' ');
  var command = args.shift().toLowerCase();

  if (message.content.startsWith(prefix)) {
    if (command === 'ping') message.channel.send('pong!');
  }
  // That's just an example, you can make your own commands
});

client.login(token); // Your Bot's token here
