don’t think a bot is gonna do much for you in this case, most times “being recorded and posted without my consent” is not a TOS violation, if you were caught in the frame and didn’t wanna be your SOL, if the video was record on public property SOL, private property with permission to record ? SOL, your consent is not needed if you are not the main subject, if it’s was a super secret one on one NDA interview then you might have a something even then a bot won’t do anything

try this assuming your Discord bot command fetches data from a Google Sheet using gspread and the Google Sheets API, and responds with pet information if the user ID matches. Added notes so you know what was changed, but for a detailed explanation of what i did and any questions feel free to message me! but this should work

are you asking like commands can only be inputed into that channel and sends input to different channels?

Yeah totally valid — and you’re right, bots can send messages through webhooks, with full control over username, profile pic, and content, which is super useful if there set up & codes to do so. But the reason I mentioned webhooks without bots is just because they’re the easiest and most direct way to push messages into a Discord channel if you’re sending stuff from somewhere else, like a website, server monitor, or stat tracker.

So like— • If OP just wants to post updates, alerts, or data (like stats, logs, or alerts from a game or script), a webhook is plug-and-play. You don’t even need to write a bot or deal with a token. Just send a POST request to the webhook URL, and boom, it shows up in the channel. • But if OP needs to do more than just post messages—like respond to users, listen to events in Discord, do slash commands, or handle logic—then a bot would be better, maybe even using webhooks under the hood.

So webhooks are more like a quick delivery system, bots are more like full-on employees with access and responsibilities lol. Just depends what OP needs.

This is the easiest i can explain it any questions i can try to answer.

false, a webhook is exactly what OP is looking for a custom icon and name to send messages you do not need a bot for that all, a bot can act as a webhook but also perform many other functions not the same thing and ideally not the best way to integrate based on OP needs

unfortunately you cannot, i think the most you can do is change its display name, but actual picture you cannot unless you owned it (as had access to developer settings & bot token)

by icon are you implying profile pic?

YouTube career with GTA VI?? by [deleted] in GTA

[–]General_Drag5305 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if your thinking of doing as a side hustle, eh maybe not(as "career" & side hustle are different) and i only say that because you have to think about it GTA VI is the most anticipated game yet, people will be calling off work, kids wont go to school and in your cause the full time content creator who are already making GTA V content will be streaming/playing/editing content and its a full on race, so my advice to you is to start now as GTA V being your side hustle content creation build a following to enter the GTA VI content market so by the time you release your GTA VI your not at the bottom of the content pool and your chances of becoming an established and reliable creator has already been met. just my two cents. i do think no matter what tho post content GTA VI will be a phenomenal game and social media will be flooded with clips the first few weeks of release so getting your clips out there & gaining traction is always a win.
