Rules are crucial for any online community, including Discord servers. You can create them yourself or use bots to set up server rules. Why should you worry when you can ask a Rule bot to help set up server rules?
The bot will help you create and publish rules that guide all the server members. So, how does one use the Rule bot on Discord?
You’ll have to invite the Rule bot to your server to use it to set server rules. Once it’s a server member, set it up to use the bot on Discord. You can use the v!setup
command to set up the bot on your server. You can also use the v!help
command to view all the instructions necessary to set up the Rule bot on your Discord server.
Bots automate many operations and tasks on Discord. Today’s article will cover what the Rule bot can do on your Discord and how to use it on Discord.
What’s a Rule Bot?
Bots make everything easy on Discord. You can virtually get a bot that can help you moderate the server, welcome new people to your server, play music, et cetera.
You don’t need to be a guru in code to use these bots. There are lots of ready-made bots, like the Rule bot, that automate Discord operations.
A perfect example of a ready-made bot is the Rule bot. The bot helps you create rules for your Discord servers. The bot has an Autorole feature. The feature automatically assigns any new member the “not verified” role.
The bot also automatically checks if a new member has gone through and agreed to the server rules. It also auto-verifies any bot you add to your Discord.
Once you set up the Rule bot on your server, the bot will publish your new server rules on a “Verification” channel. It’s a new channel that you’ll create before setting up the bot.
Server admins and new members are the only ones who can see the “Verification” channel.
