Venbot
Venbot, originally called Vaius, is a custom Discord bot made by Vendicated using the Oceanic library to manage the Vencord Discord server.
History
Originally, Vaius was meant to be a Gaius replacement because everyone hated Gaius.
Vee decided to take matters into their own hands and made their bot: Vaius.
At some point in history, the bot was renamed to venbot :3
.
Back in the old days, you could ban yourself using a Venbot command. However, this feature was removed with the rise of people DMing Vee about wanting an unban from banning themselves.

Auto-moderation
Venbot also has some automod capabilities, usually hooking into Discord's AutoMod.
- Automatically rename hoisted names to "lame username (change it)"
- Automatically normalize usernames that use "fancy" Unicode letters (
🆃🅴🆇🆃
->text
) - Timeout people who send discord invites that are not whitelisted
Timeout people sending screenshots of automodded messagesRemoved- Auto-delete messages containing some image hosts[2] that employ offensive domains or annoying embeds.
- Automatically ban users who ping
@everyone
with an invite. These are spam/scam bots.
Self-hosting
It is difficult to self-host Venbot since it was made specifically for the Vencord server, and most IDs are hard-coded.
