DevTalk quotes system
The DevTalk quotes system allows users of the DevTalk Discord server to store, and later recall, text or images, using a keyword. It is managed by Plum. Quotes are most commonly used to store screenshots of humorous messages sent by a particular user, but they also hold a variety of other pieces of information - some silly, some useful.
Usage
Add a quote
To add a quote, use this command:
.. word Text or link to image
This will create a quote under the keyword "word" with the content "Text or link to image".
Retrieve a quote
The most basic retrieve command is as follows:
... word
This will retrieve a random quote under the keyword "word". To retrieve a specific quote, use:
... word n
Where "word" is the keyword and n is a number indicating the quote from that keyword you want to retrieve. These numbers start counting at 0 and will keep going until there are no more quotes under the given keyword. The same number & keyword combination will always retrieve the same quote.
Delete a quote
To delete a quote, use:
.qdel x
Where x is the universal identifier for that quote. Plum will always provide the universal identifier for a quote when she retrieves it. Most universal identifiers are 4- or 5-digit numbers, though some may be fewer digits.
Not everyone can delete a quote - only the person who submitted the quote, moderators, and Stars have permission to use this command.
Special Quote Names
Some quote keywords are used in automatic processes throughout the DevTalk Discord server.
