# Preventing accidental owner announces
By default `announce` command sends a message to every channel the bot is on
prefixed by `Announcement from my owner (username):` and this may be easy
to trigger by accident when not specifying the plugin such as `GitHub` or `RSS`.
However this is easy to avoid with a couple of plugins
1. `/query botname`
1. `load Aka`
1. `load <Reply|Utilities>` meaning to load either Reply or Utilities
1. `aka add announce "<reply reply|utilities echo> You didn't mean for me to send that message everywhere, so I am hijacking it instead"`
* here again one is picked, "utilities echo" will just repeat the message
on channel while "reply reply" will ping you. The name of the plugin is
specified in case the command "echo" or "reply" was in multiple plugins.
1. `defaultplugin announce aka` so that when `announce` is called, it's
assumed that our new `aka` is meant instead of Owner which is an important
plugin and loaded by default.
