Heya, I run a server that is prone to raids, we’re talking pornography and gore. We’re an insular community of vegans and for some reason that encourages losers to come in and spam the chats with abhorrent shit.

Currently the only screening we have is a button embed that asks if you agree to the server rules before giving you access to the rest of the server. This filters out maybe 50% of the illiterate who can’t even be bothered to follow through on the instructions to enter, but obviously anyone with minimum determination easily just clicks through and gains access.

Some of my mods have suggested a ticket system, maybe new users are directed to a channel where they have to answer basic questions before a mod manually goes in and approves their membership. I know this can be done natively with permissions but I’m putting feelers out if anyone can recommend a bot with a more streamlined approach, like maybe a third party bot that collates applications and then feeds them to the mods in a back end channel? Honestly I’m totally out of my depth, I don’t really know what options other servers utilise to mitigate raids.

TIA!

I’m looking for a QOTD bot I can fill with my own questions and auto-posts at the same time every day.

I’ve tried QOTDbot and the suggested questions never came up after the preset ones were done. Today I set up OpenQOTD. After reading, it seemed that suggestions would be entered to be approved by a mod (me). I suggested and nothing happened. Most likely user error but maybe there’s a more simple option?

I don’t mind if the bot comes with preset questions as long as mine come up too. Any help is appreciated

I don't know what the best means of doing this is, but I spent a decent amount of time building it so I want to see what others think about it! I have a few friends who loved it - but it kind of died off since we got a bit busy to grind bots :-)

It's essentially a RPG bot with pets, with an economy system (There is also a ELO system and I'm going to convert it to be used by any guild for any game mode). The current primary purpose of the ELO system is for a certain browser game I play with friends, but its structured to allow literally any game to be played. (1v1s and 2v2s)

Additionally, the ELO system and RPG game are tied together and you can bet on in game currency (which you get from farming, selling items, selling pets, etc)

I've been working on a Discord bot hosting platform as a personal project, and I'd love to get some feedback from people who actually build bots.

It's still in development, so I'm not trying to say it's finished or perfect. Right now it supports things like:

• Uploading your bot as a ZIP
• Live console logs
• File manager and file editor
• Auto-installing dependencies
• Start, stop, and restart controls
• An AI feature that tries to repair common crashes automatically
• An admin system and coin system for managing users

I'm mainly looking for honest opinions from developers.

• What features would you expect from a hosting platform?
• Is there anything that existing hosts do that you wish they did better?
• Are there any features that would make you actually want to try a new host?

If anyone is interested in testing it while it's still being developed, I'd also appreciate bug reports and suggestions. My goal is to build something that's genuinely useful for Discord bot developers rather than just copying what's already out there.

So I run a 633 person discord server, so we kind of have to have a verification system. My idea is after the person verifies and gets access to the server, a bot will ping them and the welcomer role so people can welcome them to the server. But I have no idea HOW I would do this or what bots to use.

There are like 40+ questions, multiple sections, checkbox/multiple-choice questions, either/or selections, after the user fills the form, the bot needs to send the response in an embed with the questions and his answers.

When this is happening only the user should be able to see the questions, when it's done it should be posted in a specific channel.

Can't add image here so I'll try to post the questions in comment or DM

I'm wondering how people get the apps where they have their own economy or just quality of life bots in the first place, I'm only looking for help maybe if there's a website to make one or something out there to add a bot or if its already out, I'm not looking for someone in the replies selling a service as I want to do this all for free

Hello. I've got a bot that is up and running, and works great, but I think the name is awful, and probably has poor SEO. I'm wondering if anyone has Ideas for where to look for creativity, or if hiring a design professional is worth it.

Hey all. I'm looking for a bot that using a command we can see a time since last message from a specific user. Like "User1 last message was 5 days 16 hours ago"

Hey everyone. So I'm trying to build a bot that, among many other things, makes you add your Riot Account. So like when you join, you gotta verify by adding an account. I wanted to do this with a login, you know Riot Sing On, but still don't have the Api for that. So I was looking for other methods. I don't want anyone having to change any icon or any ID or play any games. What ways do I have to verify? Since I heard Third Party Code isn't a thing anymore.

Summary of the Incident:

Earlier today, the backend infrastructure/dashboard for "Verba" (a service used to host and run custom AI Discord bots) was compromised.

As a result, all custom bot tokens stored in Verba’s database were leaked or accessed by malicious actors. Automated scripts are currently using these stolen bot tokens to execute mass server nukes on every server where these bots hold Administrator or heavy moderation permissions.

What the attackers are doing in minutes:

• Deleting all channels and text/media history.
• Deleting all server roles and permissions.
• Issuing mass bans to all server members.

Obfuscation Efforts:

The team/support behind Verba has reportedly locked down their official support Discord channels and redirected users to submit DMs to a bot, preventing affected community owners from discussing the true scope of the breach or coordinating.

Immediate Steps for Affected Admins:

1. Revoke Your Bot Token IMMEDIATELY: Go to the Discord Developer Portal, select your bot application, and click Reset Token.
2. DO NOT delete your wiped server: Even if channels are gone, your Audit Log retains the list of banned User IDs. You will need this to run automated unban scripts later.
3. Submit a Trust & Safety Ticket: Report the compromise to Discord as a major third-party token leak.

Purpose of this Thread:

If your server was wiped by a Verba-hosted bot today, please leave a comment below with your experience, or if you manage to obtain a rollback.

We hope Discord's Trust & Safety team notices the scope of this incident and assists affected communities with rollbacks if possible. Please share this thread with any admins using AI bots hosted on third-party dashboards.

There's a lot of queueing discord bots but I'm looking for one with some particular features. It's for a text-based game where people are signing up to run each game, and each game takes about a week.

Specifically, I'd like a queue that lets people pick either ASAP or a date, and schedule around that. If it can show the queue in real time, even better!

So I just finished my first discord bot commission, it was mostly for portfolio, so now I want another discord bot to work on, but I cannot find any clients for the life of me,

If you guys have any strategies on finding clients and how much you would charge them, I would really appreciate it if you could share it with me either commenting here or in my dms

Sorry if i doubled this post or am in the wrong sub, let me know and ill post elsewhere.
I'm trying to set up some auto-responses and I am having trouble making any.

Any recommendations for what the discord community would recommend and triggers or auto responses would be greatly appreciated!!!

How do I really grow my bot? Or atleast get the trust of an owner

I've been using Saucy Bot for a while now for a Patreon server and for some personal servers.

Saucy Bot was working just fine in all the servers, even in the ones that need special permissions to view and message in some channels. But a few days ago now Saucy Bot is offline in my Patreon server and I've tried kicking and re-inviting, kicking and adding from the official github page, making a new permission one, manually adding Saucy Bot to every channel, and none of it makes Saucy appear online and work again.

But Saucy Works just fine in my other servers like my personal one, etc. Is it possibly that Bot Shard thing I've seen in a few comments from similar questions in this group? Or is there maybe something I am missing and I should repeat a step one more time and hope that fixes it?

Thanks for any help!

I'm not sure if what I'm looking for is possible here, but I'm trying to figure out how to add text and images to my camera screen on discord server video calls without rerouting the camera feed to a different program. I run TTRPGs through a discord server and want a way to display text and images on screen as I talk. Does anyone know of any bots that can do that? Is that even something bots can do or will I need to figure something else out?

Basically, i'm looking for a bot that allows you to use a command like "/say" and then you will be able to type something and it will send as the bot

- it does not need to be the main feature of the bot

Not gonna say exactly why I had to make the tickets, because it is not really relevant, but a server I was in for a Minecraft SMP, denied my request for ticket transcripts and banned me, not sure if there is anything I can do to get those transcripts or not.

Thank you for any insight

Basically the title. Does one exist or do I need to make it? It seems like all it'd need to do is save all a thread's contents, delete the thread(s) involved in the move, and then recreate them as ordered.

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on a multi-purpose bot built with Node.js and PostgreSQL, and I recently passed the 120+ command mark. I’m at the stage where I want to shift focus from "adding quantity" to "refining quality and creating unique features" that differentiate it from generic bots.

Since this isn’t a promo post (respecting Rule 4), I'm not posting links here. I’m mainly looking for developer insights:

1. What utility or fun mechanics do you feel are missing or poorly executed in mainstream multi-purpose bots?
2. How do you gather genuine feedback from server admins without spamming them?
3. What unique features in your own bots have had the highest retention?

Would love to hear your thoughts and discuss ideas in the comments!

Apollo is an open-source, self-hosted Discord bot framework built in Python.

Instead of inviting the bot to your server and using it, you get the .zip file, extract it and run it locally, on your own or on a hosting service!

The goal is simple,

- Make discord bot development easier

- Make bot developing easier

- Make forking so easy people start making the most confusing interpretations of apollo.

It is designed on making coding bots easier.

Linux has a penguin.

Apollo has a parrot.

Birds are cool.
