use <@!id> for join message mentions #206

<@id> mention format doesn't prompt the client to fetch the user's information if it's not already cached. <@!id> does, so using it results in the actual name/nickname of the user showing up more of the time.

Discord lists <@!id> as "deprecated" and "should be handled like any other user mention" but... that's not what the client does. so that's cool. https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#message-formatting
