Bob Bot

the channel builder

About

Bob is a Discord bot which allows members of a server to create temporary voice channels, voice channels which are deleted after being empty for a certain period of time.

Use cases

With Bob, members of your server will be able to create channels of their own without having the Manage Channels permission:

  • They will be able to make a channel with a custom title for a specific topic
  • They will be able to make a channel to talk privately with their friends
  • They will be able to make a channel where nobody can talk unless allowed
  • They will be able to make a channel where only specific people can talk
  • ...and so on!

However, the server channel list will stay clean, as these channels will be automatically deleted as soon as they are unused.

FAQ

Q: Can I store the permissions of a temporary channel and recall them later?

Yes! Use the /save Slash Command to create a preset based on the channel you created, then load the preset when you recreate the channel with /build.

Q: Why does Bob need Administrator permissions?

Discord doesn't allow users to create channels with the Manage Permissions permission unless they also have the Administrator permission.
