Restrict the usage of the Adminstrator permission by Bots

I see a lot of Bots that request Administrator permissions but ton't seem to justify why they cannot work with more reasonable permissions.This is a dangerous permission because the Bot than then do almost anything. It would be useful if Discord was able to find a way to limit the Admin permission from being requsted unless there is a clear need for the Bot to need it, Most Bots are inlike to need this and it can be abused.

    I have to agree with this, most bots do not need the admin permission. If they do, I really do not know the reason why.

    The main reason a bot would request Administrator is to avoid permission issues, but I agree.. there should be some way of checking if the bot really needs those permissions.

    If you don't trust a bot with admin perms, just don't give it admin. Not that hard honestly, and it shouldn't be discord's job to do this imo.
