Server Boost Suggestion (Bots)

Detective Pika

This is a big suggestion but I would love to see this in the long run.

I think it would be nice if you could add an option to bots to make them "Exclusive". When doing this it will mean the bot cannot join any server other than the server it is exclusive to.

So this is where the server boost comes into it! So if I have a bot on 100 servers with 5k people then it's common knowledge that the API is a bit more forgiving, the speed of big bots are always faster and I am talking discord server response times which is unfair because if I had a server with 20k people and a custom bot for the users then it shouldn't be slowed down because it's not sloshed out like used bath water!

I feel level 3 servers should be allowed to have an exclusive bot account that has a small boost to their API request limit.

    Y'know, as a bot developer, you can just set the OAuth2 link not to be pubic or just stop sharing it, then the bot will become "excusive".

    I think you misunderstood the idea... I understand you don't have to give people the invite to your bot and I understand that you don't have to have a bot public.

    This idea is a way to help servers that are boosted to have their own dedicated bots that doesn't have to worry about being slowed down because it's not on 1000 servers.

    I noticed this got 8 down votes and most likely it's due to people who don't understand the actual suggestion
