Utility commands
Lookups, translation, reminders and polls, without running a second bot.
Overview#
These are the small jobs that would otherwise mean a second bot in the server: looking somebody up, checking when an account was made, running a poll, shortening a link, or setting a reminder you will actually get.
None of them need setting up. They work the moment Iris joins, and like everything else they run from / or your server prefix.

Tips and gotchas#
How do I write a reminder time?
In plain shorthand, such as 30m, 2h or 1d, followed by what to remind you about.
Can I turn one of these off?
Yes. Individual commands are turned off per server in command management.
Where did the VoiceMaster commands go?
They have their own page. VoiceMaster is prefix only, under .vcmaster. See VoiceMaster.
