Development
This function was added in 2.6 to allow you to get the ping of a user in the channel. It was originally called "Ping".
The function was renamed to "PingByName" for 2.7 due to conflicts with the commonly used parameter name "Ping" in user events.
It may be preferred to use the Channel object to access more detailed information about users in the channel.
