Uh pretty sure you have to be staff yada yada something something you get the point
yeah, they might let you make one and give them the code (probably not) but they would def need to host it elsewhere
if this did get done, it would be great to also have my suggestion in #1048121379591028796 so that any songs that have been added to it in the past would not be lost
We do not let members create bots for the server for security reasons, largely due to the fact that we do not have full control over it, and any said user could do whatever they wanted on it, and see staff channels and issue special requests, etc. It's not that we don't trust you, but if we don't allow it for one we don't allow it for all if you know what I mean.
Yeah
makes sense, and i am guessing that nobody has time to go through the code to make sure it is safe, even if it was hosted somewhere where the writer of it didn't have direct write access
Having comments for all the code explaining what it does would probably also be helpful but it would still require reading of the code
Yeah because I mean you could just write
// Logs into discord
sudo rm -rf
lol, I doubt anybody would fall for that, plus that wouldn't even work as it is a js file, so would have to be done through other methods if you wanted to do smth like that
but also, why would you want to do smth like that, I think they are worried about discord targeted attacks more
Yeah ik, but the idea is fairly similar
Just adding comments isn't helpful, you'd for sure need someone on staff to actually review the code
true
I know what that one is...
but again, why are we targeting the host machine... it would likely be some random vm somewhere that doesn't matter much at all...
I feel like the concern it more about what sombody could do to the discord with the bot
This is why you shouldn't give bots admin permissions and only give them what they need lol
We wouldn't allow it either way though yeah
this however I probably wouldn't be entirely against
it seems like you are saying that you are against it, then not as much against it in the next sentence?
I meant I would be against it unless we were hosting it ourselves
ah, yeah
I'm not even sure how I'd host it
oh I thought we did, my bad
Nah, never give smth more permissions than it absolutely needs
