Question: is it possible to use this scrape the member list and user roles?

Hey, thanks very much for putting this together. I'm interested in analyzing a particular server by aggregating the member's list in the sidebar, then organize them based on user roles. I'm just wondering if it's possible to do something like this using the discord-scraper?

You can retrieve a list of members from the official API endpoint for returning channel data, but I don't quite remember if the results were all-encompassing or if there was another more viable method of gathering the members of a guild.

Ahh, I see. My understanding is that I'll have to have a bot admitted into the server in order to make server-related requsts?? Do you know if that's correct?

I'm interested in this functionality as I've been getting invited to a lot of elaborate scams through discord recently and I'd like to better understand the members and their associated roles within some of these scam servers.
