Twitch IRC Membership Commands
The Twitch IRC server sends your bot the following messages only if your bot requests the membership capability. For information about requesting the membership capability, see Requesting Twitch-specific capabilities.
| Message | Description |
|---|---|
| JOIN | A user joined the chat room. |
