Overview

Mentions a new member in up to 10 channels, then deletes the ping automatically, a way to trigger channel “new member” notifications without leaving a permanent mention in chat history. Use it to point new members at the channels that matter, like the rules or the general chat: they get the notification and the red dot, and the chat does not keep a pile of old mentions.
In #general, after a message of pixelfox, Petto posts a mention of @Mia

In Discord: Mia joins and Petto mentions her in #general; the mention is deleted after 5 seconds.

The ping is sent the moment the member joins, even when the server makes the welcome wait for the rules or the onboarding: its job is to bring the member into the server, so it must not wait.
