title: How to make it so only certain people can message?
body: <pre><code>if message.content.startswith(&quot;$s&quot;) and message.author == &quot;Talon#1509&quot;:
      message.channel = client.get_channel(808825410669903984)
      print(message.author)
      print(message.channel)
    
      mess = &quot; &quot;.join(message.content.split(&quot; &quot;)[1:])
      await message.channel.send(mess)
  </code></pre>
  <p>When I, Talon#1509, posts a message starting with $s, it does not send a message. Is there anyway to fix this issue?</p>
