Users
gollark: Oh, I kind of get it, for some bizarre reason the system is invoking the checks on the command...while generating the help.
gollark: This is so bizarre.
gollark: See?
gollark: Seriously, why is this check *applying* to ++help in such a bizarre way?
gollark: I put `@commands.check(admin_check)` on `++magic`, not `++help`.
