when you mistype a command, in many cases the bot prints the usage string. This response should get automatically removed after some time (~10 seconds). This could also be done for "Success" style responses. For this, there should probably be a new function SendAutoremove (or something like that) created in command.go, which resembles Reply, just that it automatically removes the message after a given amount of time.

i totally didn't just copypaste this from the linked issue without putting any thought into it.

Even better: Error messages are now ephemeral, so they won't get shown to others at all
