RE: Discord Patreon Roles
Added 2020-03-03 01:50:05 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
As of the 1st of this month, the Discord Patreon bot began to systematically remove every single Patreon role from the server. I'm not entirely sure what caused the issue, and I have sent a pretty arsey email to Patreon themselves asking for an explanation to why this is the case - I'll put another update post up with their full reply when I receive it.
Yesterday I sent out the mass message to you guys asking for affected users, not realising that the Patreon bot still had ongoing issues. I've just been alerted to the fact that roles we had restored have since been removed once again by the bot.
Until I get confirmation from Patreon that the issue is fixed, me and the moderation team will be giving out the roles manually. I have written a script for the discord bots that will help in this, but this will be a long process, so I can only ask for your patience and offer my apologies in what is going to be a long process restoring all the roles removed by the Patreon integration bot.
Sorry to say this for a second time, but if you've been affected by this, even those I have already spoken too, please message me and/or a moderator on discord again with your Patreon name and tier, this will help speed up the process rapidly, and it means if I'm sleeping/recording/editing you can still regain your roles via the moderators, who have kindly offered to help with this complete mess.
As I said, I will immediate attach any correspondence I receive from Patreon that explains what the hell has happened to cause this to happen.
Apologies again,
Sam.
EDIT: Should also point out I've unplugged the Patreon bot for the time being and I'm preparing to burn it at the stake.
