Must allow direct messages from server members in Discord to interact w/ tip bot #19

Problem: I have to turn on the privacy setting "Allow direct messages from server members." in a Discord server that the tip bot is in, in order to interact with the tip bot on Discord.

While there's a Discord feature request here (give bots a way to acquire user consent to message them despite this setting), I have a suggestion for how to improve in the mean time.

Create a small Discord server that the tip bot resides in. When someone types "!info" in Discord, they can get a link to that Discord server (so it's not just an open invite), and then they can hang out in that Discord server without opening their other servers to spam DMs.

Potentially require users to make a deposit before giving them that link. It's not fool-proof: A determined spammer could still get through, but this is a 4 foot wall in the middle of field full of mice, the effort wouldn't make the spam worth it.

That's a good idea, we will check what we can do!
