Help command: add new commands and send it in text instead of on a picture. about frcbot-chatbot HOT 7 CLOSED

What is the reason that it is too big to send? Can Messenger not handle it or what's happening?

from frcbot-chatbot.

The Messenger API is limiting the number of characters. In a normal conversation, Messenger does not have a character limit but there is one for Bots. If you send something with too many characters, it would not be send.

That's why the Sponsor command only works with certain teams. Teams with too many sponsors do not work.

Ah I see...looks like 320 characters, right? Can you paste in the plain text of the help image here so that I don't need to rewrite to play with it?
