Some things to consider

So the bot can function between servers, I'd say the bot needs to "told" to send messages every X days or what ever. This solves the problem of hardcoding channel ids to the bot.

If we go this approach, these need to have sensible limits, so we don't spam in the discord servers. We can start with a limit on the amount of automation the bot can have. New automation cancels the existing one and only allow 1 automatic message per day.

command structure could look something like this "set 'lw malid' 0800 7" Which would send the lw command for malid every seven days. The automation message would be sent in the channel that the user message was sent in.

Test in progress for a simple, hard-coded version of this feature.
