Error 50007 "Cannot send messages to this user"

See original GitHub issue

I am having issues when inviting the bot with the URL generated during the start-up script. Even when inviting the bot with permissions=8 I am shown the below error.

I tested the bot on both a Ubuntu 20.04 install and also a windows 10 install and both had the same issues. I’m going to use another music bot for now, and won’t be doing any more troubleshooting. Feel free to close the issue if you want, but it might be worth leaving here if other people have a similar problem

It’s also worth noting that you should still be able to use the bot, even if it can’t send the invite message for some reason.
