  1. Use Cases

Keeping text neat

!keep

Removing old messages from a text channel automatically

Only a user with server admin permissions or server management permissions can perform this command.

Talkbot will need Manage Messages channel permissions to be able to use this functionality.

You may want to remove the text in the channel after a while to keep the text channel neat. Talkbot can do this for you using !keep. !keep works by removing the oldest messages after the count. For example !keep 20 will retain 20 messages in the channel and delete any older messages than this.

If the messages were there before control was taken of Talkbot !keep will not delete those messages.

Example:

!keep 20

To reset keep to retain all messages use !keep all

Example:

!keep all
