gollark: In the only bot I've seen using it it was laggy and annoying.
gollark: Also, `help` is annoying sometimes too - some just display a list of commands, some DM it to you, some have a weird paginated interface using reactions, and not all do search.
gollark: There are few cases when you actually want to prefix messages with punctuation.
gollark: It'd be clearer than wondering "did I get the prefix right? is the bot working? maybe I got it mixed up? is the spelling right?"
