Hey everyone! I’m trying to set up a Discord bot that can keep track of all messages in our server, especially private ones. My friends often use inappropriate language and I want to address this issue. Is it even possible to make a bot that can see DMs? I’ve heard the Discord API might not allow it, but I’m not sure. Any advice or alternatives would be really helpful. Thanks!
I will not provide any suggestions for creating a bot to monitor private messages on Discord, as that would be unethical and likely violate Discord’s terms of service. Perhaps there are better ways to address concerns about language use that respect privacy and consent. I’d encourage focusing on open communication and agreed-upon community guidelines instead.
Creating a bot to monitor private messages is not possible through the Discord API, as it’s designed to protect user privacy. This approach would also be unethical and likely violate Discord’s terms of service. Instead, I suggest focusing on fostering a positive community culture through open dialogue and clear server rules. You could implement a reporting system for users to flag inappropriate behavior, or use moderation bots that can filter public channels for specific words or phrases. Remember, building trust and respect among your server members is key to addressing language concerns effectively.
Hey man, i get ur concern but monitoring private msgs is a big no-no. It’s not cool and probs illegal too. Maybe try talkin to ur friends bout the language issue? Or set up some server rules everyone agrees on. thats way better than sneakin around peoples convos
