Check if a member is already on timeout

[hollow oxide]

if(member.isCommunicationDisabled() === true) return interaction.reply ('User already muted')
Why is it returning even though they aren’t timed out?

Were they timed out previously?

[hollow oxide]

No, they've only just been muted

and it says 'User already muted' while they are not

    const member = await interaction.options.getMember('user');

    const time = await interaction.options.getString('time');
    const muteTime = ms(time);
    if(muteTime === undefined) return interaction.reply({ content: 'Invalid Time' })

    await member.timeout(muteTime);
    if(member.isCommunicationDisabled() === true) return interaction.reply ('User already muted')

this is the full ish part

[karmic island]

So you time them out. And then you check to see if they’re timed out.?

[hollow oxide]

yes

it times them out, and if they're already muted it sends 'User already muted'

[wintry spoke]

?? that doesn't make sense

[hollow oxide]

how so?

[wintry spoke]

if you put them on timeout, then check if they're on timeout, that if statement will always be true

[karmic island]

You may want to check before timing them out

[hollow oxide]

i'm gonna be amazed if i'm actually that dumb..
