Directional messaging

[phil-flip]

• Outgoing -> The channel will only send messages
• Incoming -> The channel will only receive messages
• Both -> The channel will send and receive messages (which is already available on this bot)

Example:

Channel A - only send messages to Channel B

• Meaning, whenever a webhook bot, any bot or the user makes any message (all formats), it will be sent to Channel B
• While on Channel B, when you (user), any bot or webhook bots post any messages (all formats), it won't send to Channel A

Good Use Case for this is:

Following an announcement channel from Channel A (not an announcement channel) to a official server that has announcements channel but then you want it to be broadcasted to Channel B, but instead the Channel B is already an announcement channel (hence the discord rule that if you make the channel an announcement channel, it won't receive messages from other followed announcement channels)

• So you want to link it like this

Official Server that has announcement channel posts a message -> it broadcasted to Channel A (not an announcement channel) -> Linked to Channel B (which is an announcement channel) -> Channel A broadcasts the message to Channel B -> Channel B receives the message from Channel A -> Channel B now then broadcasts or publish the official server announcement message channel that came from Channel A

Term: broadcast -> forward
