Channel cleanup
Delete messages immediately or by age
/autodelete set channel:#utility mode:Always/autodelete set channel:#utility mode:Timed minutes:60/autodelete disable channel:#utilityAlways removes every new unpinned message immediately and works through older history in small safe groups. Timed removes messages after a chosen age from 10 minutes to 30 days. Disable removes whichever rule is active without needing to remember its mode or duration; using it again is safe and simply reports that Autodelete was already disabled.
| Mode | New messages | Existing messages | Best use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Always | Removed immediately. | Cleaned gradually in small groups. | Command or utility channels where normal conversation is not allowed. |
| Timed | Remain until the configured age. | Eligible old messages are cleaned over scheduled passes. | Temporary coordination, media or short-lived discussion. |
| Disabled | Untouched by Autodelete. | No further cleanup from that rule. | Normal channels or maintenance pauses. |
Pinned messages are preserved. Autodelete changes only the selected channel rule and does not remove stable Luminox panels from unrelated configured channels.
Stable panels
Reuse when possible, reposition only when position matters
Most panels edit their existing Discord message. Final action panels such as GuildBank, Loot, Guildhall or Event Board may move to the bottom after a permanent log entry is published. Restarting the bot should discover and reuse stored message IDs rather than creating duplicate stable panels.
Private responses
Expiry follows usefulness
Discord controls the underlying interaction token lifetime; Luminox schedules deletion within that supported window.
Refresh hierarchy
Do not use a heavy scan for a visual problem
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
/install refresh | Redraw configured panels without heavy character scans. |
| System refresh | Reposition Registration, GuildBank or Support when required. |
/update | Refresh one member's main identity. |
/update-all | Administrator-only full registered-character synchronization. |
Local backups
Automatic, rotating and owner-operated
- One automatic backup every 24 hours.
- Keep the latest 30 daily backups.
- Create one monthly backup on the first day.
- Keep 12 monthly backups.
- Backup commands are not exposed to administrators of every installed Discord server.
Sustainable data
Balances outlive detailed history
Luminox keeps confirmed balances and the links needed for review while cleaning old reward detail, old transaction detail and temporary information. Full Support and Event conversations remain in Discord threads.
- Cleaning old detail does not subtract the confirmed balance.
- Pending records remain until staff reviews them or their documented deadline passes.
- Looking for team, Guard and report information is deleted after it stops being useful.
- Completed specialist requests use time and count limits while the readable Discord log remains available.
