Purge

Minimalistic purge bot for Discord

Project description

Motivation

The bulk delete functionality is one of the very few things that are only available for bots. This project aims to bring that functionality to the Discord end user.

Usage

This bot has only one command: /purge - which lets you delete up to 100 messages at once. Please keep in mind that due to discord limits, the messages may not be older than 2 weeks.
