The following is a full register of directives (commands) for Lord Bottington. Directives are separated by functionality and usage.

Last Updated: August 14, 2023

General Information

Each directive must be in the form /directive-name for proper functionality within Discord.

It is also important to note that not all directives are available to all members, meaning they require administrative privileges for your guild, as some can potentially contain private information (birthday information, etc.) or alter your guild functionality entirely. Please use and assign the following directives accordingly.

Please do not hesitate to contact myself (XxJSweezeyxX) or Join the Support Guild and contact an administrator or myself there for assistance with directives or to notify us of any bugs or updates that need to be made.

For Lord Bottington's features to work, please make sure that the following permissions are granted to the automaton within your guild.
