Troubleshooting

Command not responding?

Verify bot is online (green status)
Check you’re in the correct channel
Some commands require specific roles (raid leader, staff)
Try again after a moment - Discord may be experiencing issues

Can’t sign up for FT run?

Check if signups are closed
Verify you’re not blacklisted (command will tell you)
Run may be at capacity with full reserves
Ensure you’ve selected at least one role

Reminder not received?

Check your DM settings allow messages from server members
Bot must be able to DM you (test with /forked-preferences)
Reminders sent 90 minutes before - check timing
Bot restarts may prevent delivery (rare)

Natural language time not parsing?

Include timezone if outside Eastern Time
Use common formats: "May 5 at 8pm EST"
Fall back to explicit format: "2026-05-05 20:00"
Check AM/PM specification

Can’t manage my run?

Verify you’re the raid leader for that run
Use /manage-run not right-click if thread was deleted
Contact staff if run is showing as someone else’s

Tips & Best Practices

For Scheduling:

Use natural language time input for convenience ("tomorrow 8pm", "next Friday 3pm pacific")
Include detailed descriptions - helps attract signups
Set passcode ahead of time to avoid last-minute changes
Post announcements at least 24-48 hours ahead for best turnout

For Signups:

Sign up early - popular runs fill quickly
Select all roles you can play to increase acceptance chances
Set party friends early for better grouping
Use /my-signups regularly to track your commitments
Withdraw ASAP if you can’t make it - helps reserves get promoted

For Raid Leaders:

Use /manage-run to keep tabs on signup progress
Distribute rosters 1-2 hours before run for best attendance
Consider party friend preferences when manually adjusting
Cancel early if you can’t lead - give people time to adjust

For BA Runs:

Set party friends to ensure you’re with experienced players
Sign up for perception/spirit dart early if comfortable
Plus-one system is for first clear only - don’t abuse it
Check /ba_toolbox for mechanics refreshers before run

For FT Runs:

Keep phantom job preferences updated
Select flexible roles to improve party placement
Vote in /prog-point-poll to influence community focus
Check thread frequently as run time approaches

For Reminders:

Set reminders for runs 2+ days out - easy to forget
Use Reminder Manager to view all reminders in one place
Ensure bot can DM you (check privacy settings)
Don’t rely solely on reminders - check schedule regularly
