/notify

Used to be direct messaged of a game's or user's new LFG Posts on the Global LFG Network.

Usage

In order to access this command visit any text or thread channel and type /, then select /notify.

Automatic notification via direct messages are a fantastic feature provided by our service. A large problem in the LFG process is finding others to play with. We have simplified this issue by notifying subscribed users of new LFG Posts for a specific game or from a specific user, as soon as they are posted to the Global LFG Network.

Similar to /search, users no longer need to be apart of multiple servers nor know multiple people.

Notify does require certain parameters but they are required after using the command.

Available Sub-Options

Upon running /notify in a server channel or via direct message, you will be presented with choices:

Tip: alternatively provide your response as a parameter in the command to skip the below.

🔔 Setup Notifications

Upon selecting this option you will be prompted to provide a formatted response within the same text channel. This is the format to be used if you provide the subscription parameter.

Response Required: In order to specify what games or users to be notified of, respond by typing in the same channel one of three ways:

• Game URL(s): Provide the Steam Store page URLs to enable notifications for any new LFG Posts regardless of user for said games. With each Steam Store page URL being separated by a single space. (Ex: https://store.steampowered.com/app/107410/Arma_3/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/281990/Stellaris/)

• User ID(s): Provide the user IDs or @ a user to enable notifications for any new LFG Posts from them regardless of game. With each user ID being separated by a single space. (Ex: <@Garrus Valkyrin#9816> 224349699061186570)

• User ID(s) & Game URL(s): You may also pair notifications for specific users, to enable notifications for them when they host LFG Posts for desired games. With each user ID followed by a semi-colon and consecutive Steam Store page URLs each separate by a comma. For multiple users, each must be separated by a single space. (Ex: <@Garrus Valkyrin#9816>;https://store.steampowered.com/app/107410/Arma_3/,https://store.steampowered.com/app/281990/Stellaris/ 284839059157942274;https://store.steampowered.com/app/107410/Arma_3/,https://store.steampowered.com/app/281990/Stellaris/

Upon providing a valid response your message will be removed as to keep this interaction private.

❌ Clear Notifications

Selecting this option will clear all currently subscribed notifications for games and users. This does not have a required response, simply select it to take effect.

You may alternatively disable individual notifications as they come in until no more remain.

Results

Upon providing a valid response, you will be provided a confirmation message showcasing your current subscriptions. Running /notify will replace all existing notifications with said new settings.

Accepted and declined parameters will be showcased to help confirm what was accepted.

After subscribing for notifications, users will be informed via Direct Message of new LFG Posts.

The same buttons are provided to interact with as described in the results section of /search.

Users will be given the option to unsubscribe from individual subscriptions as they are notified.

Individual un-subscriptions are especially useful for those whom wish to not LFG after finding a host.
