guildMemberUpdate doesn't fire for users that joined when the bot was offline

Hello, I'm trying to make a bot that will give a role to an user that has accepted the server rules by checking for the pending property, what I found peculiar is that if the user joined when the bot is offline, when the bot comes back online it refuses to give that user a role even when that user accept the rules. And I also found out that calling await client.guilds.cache.get(guildID).members.fetch() on ready event resolves that issue. Any heads up? Here is my code and a video demonstrating the issue. I have already enabled Guilds and GuildMembers intents, and this issue doesn't occur when the user joins when the bot is up. Or more specifically, it doesn't even fire guildMemberUpdate, as to why the console.log() didn't fire. I don't want to call a fetch for guild members because my bot's prod guild has over 4k members.

I think it emits a guildMemberAdd Not a guildMemberUpdate New member should be a full member You can't fetch the old member

What you want to do? Checking if the member is pending and add role if changes the state?

If it's working Thats fine Try this: (oldMember.pending !== newMember.pending) || (!newMember.pending && !newMember.roles.cache.has(roleId))
