View the server's Message of the Day — a welcome message from the server administrators that is also shown automatically when you first connect.
When to Use It
Use it to read the server news or rules again after they scrolled out of the Status window. It is also the way to read a new MOTD that was posted while you were connected.
Syntax
/motd
How It Works
Displays the current server MOTD in the Status tab. The MOTD is shown automatically when you connect, and you can re-view it at any time with /motd or Help > Message of the Day. If no MOTD has been set by the administrators, you'll see a "No MOTD has been set" message.
When an administrator changes or clears the MOTD while you are connected, a short note in the Status window tells you so. The new text is not shown by itself. Type /motd to read it.
Rules & Limits
- Anyone can use it. No channel or server status is needed.
- The command takes no parameters. Anything you type after it is ignored.
- Only server administrators can change the MOTD, with /setmotd or /clearmotd.
