RoLink - New Upcoming Discord Bot

What is your encryption strategy

I currently do not feel like your method of data saving is trustworthy at all, even if you did manage to encrypt it. This is mostly because I do not trust anyone who is not 1) reputable and 2) knowledgeable in security & encryption to store my secure and sensitive information, and also because you still seem unsure if you know exactly what you’re doing.

I encourage you to stop and research fully into encrypting and figure out the best method of both encrypting data and storing it securely so that you are not a RoVerify V2.

Hey jorito, Thanks for the comment, I will continue to look into Encryption , How it works / Can be used.

Add a feature that gives devforum members a role (Server Owner preferring the role) just like RoVer

[UPDATE] Bot is now being FULLY Recoded from Scratch (not the program scratch). New Features can be seen on the Trello:

Trello (Will enable Comments on the Suggestions).

Sounds amazing!
All the features that it provides are very useful in discord groups.
I really like it, probably better than RoVerify!

Thats if it Actually gets finished, (With my Family Company starting backup, and other Stuff happening, I hope to get this finished by the 25th.

[UPDATE] We have 2 Choices Release RoLink as a Verification bot Until i sort Encryption (so you lot can still use it)or recode it all, pick the choices

  • 1: Release as a Verification Bot (Until I get the Security Stuff out).
  • 2: Wait for V2 Release,

You still seem extremely unsure how to proceed, you need to get a handle on this otherwise nothing will come of you. Learn how to properly and securely encrypt sensitive data, and then act on it. You have run into this situation 3 times I believe on this thread already about, ‘ok idk if i can do that so maybe this?’.

I would suggest hashing over encrypting as anything encrypted can be decrypted using the proper key while hashing is one way and can’t be “unhashed”. I may be wrong so apologies in advance if I am.

Hashing can and will be unhashed. However, developers can “salt” their hashing algorithm with a custom salting pattern to make it nearly impossible to dehash without the salting pattern. You got close though!

There is a difference between knowing what to use vs how to use it. OP seems, as @LordMerc said, unsure on how to do this. Even with a proper encryption library / function, you can still mess it all up. If you don’t know how to properly utilize encryption, you might as well store it blank text (jk, don’t).

Here’s a post I found in 5 seconds (didn’t read all of it, but after quickly checking it, I think it shows my point): 6 encryption mistakes that lead to data breaches | Crypteron

Tl;Dr: You’re doing it wrong!

Be able to have group shouts be copied in to discord.

Like a Shout Command or an Shout Notifer like [USERNAME] has shouted [TEXT]?

[UPDATE] Bot Is now Registered as a Verification Bot until V2 is done!!!

All Bugs are fixed, (Code sided), If there is any Feel free to Hit me up on here or Discord!!

(Making a Manual how to set it up now)

(Still taking Command Suggestions)

10 Long Days later. Encryption is finally coming along.

  • Fixed the DB Errors, Turned out the DB was not returning data.
  • Added Advanced Error Logging to quickly fix the Errors!
  • If you need support you can now run support and a Support Agent will try and get to you. (The Support Staff will join your server with a Invite provided via the Bot.

Bot is now Fully working, Enjoy the Bots

NOTE: Encryption is now being added within a day or two.

Here are some ideas!

  • Auto DevForum posts. (Ex. If I want a channel to automatically post topics in the Community section, the bot would do it)

  • Detect Developer Forum New Members, Members, Top Contributors, etc.

  • Detect Premium members.

Wdym by Auto detect them?

Other than that, I will make sure to add the other now!

Be able to determine who is a premium member and who is not. (It would give them a role.)

I meant this one. I know how to do the other One , I am just confused on this one.
