Parameters:

• Channel
  • Direct channel link
  • channel ID
• Start message
  • Message link
  • Message ID
• (optional) End message
  • Message link
  • Message ID

Behavior:

• When given a channel and only a start message, purge all messages posted in the provided channel after and including the start message
• When given a channel, a start message, and an end message, purge all messages posted in the provided channel after and including the start message AND before and including the end message

Example calls:

• .mpurge #general 642051421549625395 -> purges all messages posted in #general after and including the message with ID 642051421549625395
• .mpurge #general-2 642051421549625395 -> produce an error because there is no message with the provided ID in the provided channel
• .mpurge 567169726250352644-642051421549625395 -> purges all messages posted in channel with ID 567169726250352644 after and including the message with ID 642051421549625395(this is the format that discord gives when you shift+click to get a message ID)

Other notes:

• Channel can be omitted if using message links
• Secondary confirmation should be required before doing the purge. This could be formatted something like the following:

You are about to purge <#> messages from <channel>. 
The purge will start at <first purged message link> and end at <last purged message link>. 

Are you sure you want to proceed?
