Hey @grim gyro!

It looks like you incorrectly specified a language for your code block.

Make sure you put your code on a new line following py. There must not be any spaces after py.

Here is an example of how it should look:
```py
print('Hello, world!')
```

This will result in the following:

print('Hello, world!')```
You can **edit your original message** to correct your code block.

    await ctx.channel.send(f"purged {amount} messages") #deletes the amount of messages specified```

#

the purge command s ok

#

the kick command is not ok

#

when i make !kick @a user

#

doesnt work

safe stump Jun 7, 2024, 7:59 AM

#

grim gyro when i make !kick @a user

role hierarchy could be the cause

#

    if member == "":
        await ctx.channel.send("Please mention a member to kick")

#

and this will never be true

#

as its assigned to be a discord.Member type

#

you can do it

#

if member == None:

#

instead of ""

grim gyro Jun 7, 2024, 8:00 AM

#

ok

#

it makes an error

#

comaprsion to none should be cond is none

#

this is what it says

#

i fixed it

#

if member is none

#

not if member == none

#

wait

#

the !kick still doesnt work
