point drain at a forum channel and it answers each new post there: a message under the post in your own words, an up and a down vote on the post itself, or both. it can also keep closed posts closed.

​
setting it up

open the dashboard, pick your server and go to forums. add a forum, then switch on vote reactions, lock closed posts, or write what drain replies, and save. up to 50 forums.
replies, votes and locks are set per forum, and any of them can be on without the others.

​
the reply

{user} is the person who posted, {title} is the post’s title and {server} is your server’s name. keep it under 1,500 characters. drain shows you how it will look when you set it, and only the person who posted gets pinged. ,forum reply <forum> off stops replying there.

​
locking closed posts

discord reopens a closed forum post the moment anybody replies to it, so a solved question in a help forum keeps coming back. with ,forum lock #help on, drain locks each post as it’s closed: it stays closed, and only people with manage threads can open it again. drain needs manage threads in that forum to lock posts, and says so when you turn it on without it.

​
every command

​
posts drain leaves alone

posts made by bots, including drain’s own pinned guides, get no reply and no votes.
