Previously known as nwPlus Discord Bot, Factotum started as a Discord bot to support small and medium hackathons run on the Discord platform for free. Now it has become a fully customizable, feature rich bot to support any and all types of events over discord.

Factotum brings a lot of features that would traditionally happen at in-person hacakthons all over the word to the Discord platform.

Most features rely on emoji reactions, custom emojis can be used as well!

The mentor ticket system or more generally the ticketing system of HackaBot is an advanced ticketing system for a set of users to inquire by the use of tickets, and another set of users can respond to such tickets both via text or voice.

### Clear Chat
Sometimes as an Admin you want to delete an entire text channel, well HackaBot has a ``!clear-chat`` command that will delete 100 messages from the text channel. You can let the bot know if you want to keep any pinned messages.

### Channel Creation (WIP)
Channel creation gives users the ability to create private voice or text channels for them to use with their team or group of friends. With a click of a button, the bot starts asking the user questions about what type of channel they want, the name of the channel, and who has access to this channel.
