Other information Did anyone get banned from Aternos for using this bot ?

After further research Aternos already talked about automating Discord bot and its violation of rules : image

This information should be written in the README, just to alert anyone that they can loose their server.

Apologies, the risks of using this software used to be more visibly documented here while the bot was still in public access. You have a point, there should be a warning at the top of the README file.

Thank you for the warning in the head of the README file. I got my account back by sending a mail to the support, explaining that I wasn't aware of this rule.
