Overview

Petto remembers the names (display names and usernames) and the nicknames of the members it sees, from the moment it sees them: when a member joins and every time they change one. You can look it up in the server with a command, or on the website. Petto does not keep avatars. It used to, with a copy of each picture, but that used too much storage, so the avatar history was removed and only the history of names and nicknames stays. Saving starts when Petto first sees someone. It cannot know what a person had before, and it only keeps the newest 200 of each kind.

​
Commands

  • !names and !nicknames list what is saved (up to 40), newest first, with when each one was seen. Nicknames are the ones of this server.
  • !clear names, !clear nicknames or !clear all delete your own saved history. It is separate from the channel !clear <number>, which deletes messages.
  • !profilehistory record false stops Petto from saving your history and nobody else can see it; what is already saved stays until you !clear it; true turns it on again. Short names: !phist, !nicks.
