  • Do you have an `on_message` event? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49331096/why-does-on-message-stop-commands-from-working – Patrick Haugh Oct 26 '19 at 16:01

From what I've read from the discord.py docs you should code it like this:

Bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")

@Bot.commands() 
async def ping(ctx):
    ctx.send("Pong!")

When you use 'print' you print the answer on your idle terminal. 'ctx.send' print the answer on discord chat. And every function on discord.py needs and argument.
