Spurious messageUpdate

I just observed a messageUpdate event emitted on a message from 2018 that doesn't show as edited. What can cause this other than an edit? There are no embeds to the message so it shouldn't be embed related. Can this event fire when there is no change?

        intents: [

well you have the message partial so that would explain why you received that message event no idea why it would emit though if there were no changes

jrOP•11mo ago

Indeed 🙂 I was surprised to see it

Kevinnnn•11mo ago

are there any links in it? was it pinned at one point and unpinned? the event emits if the link embed for it was cleared

jrOP•11mo ago

No links but pins are a good thought Yep looking back through the logs that was it 🙂 Thanks for the help!

Kevinnnn•11mo ago
