Twitter Webhooks in the Discord server - jeffie43 - 12-31-2019
Wanted to suggest using webhooks in the twitter channel instead of having people post their own tweets.
Some of the benefits would involve:
- Automatic posts by the bot so everything gets posted
- More visibility for those looking to gain followers/likes/retweets
- No clutter from discussion in the chat (If the channel is in read-only mode for non-administrators)
Some of the negative aspects would involve:
- There may not be as much discussion regarding tweets if people cannot talk in the channel
- Channel could get a little bit cluttered depending on the number of tweets coming in at once
An example of the suggestion above would look like this (Please ignore the pfp, my GM was bullying me):

If this is something we can realistically do or that someone can figure out how to do, I absolutely love this idea! It would bring life to twitter I think because every tweet talking about the NSFL will be thrown in there and we will be able to see how much chatter is going on about our league. I think it could even encourage more people to get involved in our twitterverse as they might see more tweets they want to respond to.

The biggest problem would be to maintain the list of Twitter accounts the bot needs to pull data from. We could start with the league account, team accounts and NSFL hashtag and see what happens.

We already do this in the s17 disc so it could be done

What we had done in another server was send out a quick survey to everyone asking them to send in their twitter accounts along with player name so that we could fill it out in one go.
