Worried about someone seeing who you’re sniping in a public Discord server? Bloxiana has a setting that makes your snipe commands visible only to you.

How private snipes work

When the Private Snipes setting is on, every time you use /snipe the bot’s reply is an ephemeral message. The confirmation, search progress, and results are private, so only you can see them in the channel.

Before: public snipe (default)

By default, anyone in the channel can see your snipe command and its results.

After: private snipe (enabled)

With the setting on, the same command is only visible to you.

How to enable private snipes

  1. Run /settings. You can do this in any server that has Bloxiana, or directly in your DMs with the bot.
  2. In the settings menu, click the Private Snipes button to switch it to Enabled.
That’s it. Your /snipe commands will now be private by default. Run /settings again to toggle it off at any time.
