[Feature Suggestion] WebUI Election Comments #82

Open Dave247 opened 1 year ago

I was thinking how an idea could be to somehow include comments made on elections in the WebUI to the mod, perhaps as a feed, though this would need to also include details as to what the election was so it is useful. The main idea I had was to attach it to the bottom of a posted display in an embed, though the only thing with that is I don't know if there is a limit to the amount of embeds you can have in a single Discord message. Maybe just include comments all in a second embed, and not give them each their own embed?

One benefit I thought of when it comes to the actual implementation, is that unlike how displays work which require to be continually updated with new data, due to the way comments seem to work in the webUI, only a single request would ever need to be made when the comment is actually posted and that would be it, then it would never need to be touched again as there is no way to alter, edit or delete comments as far as I am aware.

As an additional feature thinking about it more, perhaps there could also be some way to send a comment from Discord to the WebUI, but I imagine that would be very complex to do, if it's even possible at all.
