Additional Information

using 2fa (i made a selfbot without discord.py-self and it worked with the same token, just couldn't read any message embeds)

Hey, 1.9.1 is not being updated anymore. Could you try with the rebase branch and let us know how it goes?

Uninstall discord.py-self and run the following command -

python3.9 -m pip install git+https://github.com/dolfies/discord.py-self@rebase

Or, you could git clone the repository and could move the 'Discord' directory to your CWD without having to uninstall anything.

And, this could also occur because the bot is caching information, how many servers is your selfbot in? To disable guild caching -

from discord import GuildSubscriptionOptions
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='\a', self_bot=True, guild_subscription_options=GuildSubscriptionOptions.off())

Let us know how this goes, disabling caching makes it so that

bot.get_guild(id)

And such won't work, instead, you'll have to do

await bot.fetch_guild(id)

[rayzchen]

Thanks, I'll try it out.

[dolfies]

Yeah, it looks like the subscriptions are the problem. However, if you disable them bot.get_guild() still works, but guild.members won't be filled.

Now GuildSubscriptionOptions cannot be imported from discord, still using the latest version of discord.py-self from the rebase branch

[dolfies]

GuildSubscriptionOptions are gone. The library now "chunks" the guilds it can (which is much faster) and can be controlled with the old chunk_guilds_at_startup parameter. Still recommend setting to False if you don't need guild members/member events.

Additionally, the rebase branch has been merged into master and is no longer developed on.

Oh, ok thanks.
