Feature to auto-reset Bot Token, when there is more than a connection.

FyN8

Could we add a feature or an option to reset the token instantly (like when 1000s of connection requests come in a very less time period), if more than one connection through the token is detected. Yes it might lead to the bot being offline for a while, but at least it would invalidate leaked tokens

    More than one connection is 100% valid for zero downtime time/rolling restarts, and clustering (like sharding but for shards). And your token is auto reset when you get above the login limit (1000 for bots with less than 250k guilds)

    Couldn't this feature be a separate option to enable incase we want to, like the Presence Intent option. Yes more than one connection is really valid in many cases, but in a lot of cases (involving smaller scale bots, made for mid sized servers (~400-3k members?) its leaked tokens), and this feature can really help to prevent stuff like nukes, and spams.

    "and this feature can really help to prevent stuff like nukes, and spams." not really, you can very easily do that without connecting to the gateway at all

    Tokens regularly expiring can cause hours of downtime. Especially if it happens when you're away, and unable to exchange the token. That's not worth the minimal amount of security that would give. Just keeping your token secret provides more than enough security.
