gollark: In what way?

gollark: I also apparently don't have the disconnect function down yet.

gollark: Well, each guild has a "phone" "number" generated from a hash of its ID, which can then be used by other people to "call" it. When you "call" it, the people there are asked to take the call. If they accept, it adds it to the "calls" database, and currently does nothing.

gollark: Anyone with "manage channels".
