# Send Messages with the Bot

We have multiple commands where you can send messages as the bot. This is very useful if you want to chat anonymously or if you want to add some information to a channel

## Base Command

You can send messages to your server with the bot by using the `/say` command.&#x20;

| Command Option Name | Function                                                                                             |

| message-content     | In this option you can enter the content that you want to have in your message                       |
| embed               | In this option you can choose if you want it to be a plain text message or an embed message          |
| dm                  | In this option you can select a user to DM. If you do not want to DM anyone, leave this option empty |
