gollark: But there are ALREADY bots which can probably be configured to spam rules when asked, or manage roles.
gollark: Also, it probably doesn't do anything interesting.
gollark: I feel like if your bot can be generated without actually writing code yourself it isn't very good in the first place.
gollark: You can make a simple one using a shell script since those are run line by line and don't care about several megabytes of random binary on the end.
