This is exposing private information if done that way, I know this seems useful but requesting a user's friend and servers can already be done via OAuth2, so you could have a verify channel that authorises a bot with those scopes and do a scan or something. |

This wouldn't help against a lot of raids from accounts made specifically to raid (and thus won't have mutual friends/servers with each other). Even if it would help, it's a big cat-and-mouse game so it won't stop dedicated malicious users for long. :c |

You can already request the server and friend list of a user via OAuth, if they authorise your bot. Besides that, raid accounts are usually created for this specific purpose, they don't have any friends or belong to any server, so this wouldn't really help either. |

This is a way to stop raids from alt accounts that get banned from servers right now we have a simple way of doing by checking discord user info we can get straight from the discord API using discord.py or something but if we could see what servers or friends the user has could help really to find alt accounts and see if its a alt and if we should investigate the user to see if we need to ban from the server don't make this a public endpoint as this could be exploited but make it so people can request access or something that way it is not to be exploited. Please think about this and feel free to reach out to me about any questions or updates.
