|---|---|
| Read Messages History | Allows the bot to read your request. |
| Send Messages | Allows the bot to reply to your commands. |
| Use External Emojis | Allows the bot to display EVE custom icons. |
| Embed Links | Allows the bot to post Discord rich embed content containing images (ship renders, module icons) and hyperlinks (an external EVE database website). |
| Add Reactions | Allows the bot to post a trash icon reaction. You can click on it to quickly erase your datasheet response. |
