First impressions on autopilot: welcomes, goodbyes, and custom commands

Greet every joiner in-channel or by DM, wave off leavers, and build your own !commands for the questions you answer every day.

A member's first thirty seconds decide whether they say something or leave silently. GolemHQ makes those seconds warm without anyone lifting a finger.

Welcomes that feel personal

Pick a channel and a message with placeholders — the member's mention, their name, the server, the member count — and every joiner gets a public hello: "Welcome @rex to Night Owls! You're member #1,204." Premium servers can also send a DM welcome: the rules recap, the starter tips, the "introduce yourself here" pointer that never gets lost in a busy channel. Goodbyes are optional — some communities like marking departures, some don't. Your call, one checkbox.

Custom commands: your FAQ, one ! away

Every server answers the same five questions daily. Where's the schedule? What are the socials? How do I get the role? Build !commands for each in the dashboard — name, response, done. Members type !socials and the bot answers instantly, correctly, at 4am. Placeholders personalize the response, and free servers get five commands (Premium: fifty).

Set it once, benefit forever

These are the features you configure in ten minutes on day one and never touch again — they just quietly make your server feel staffed around the clock.
