getting message.author esque information
weird question i know, probably phrased weirder too, but I'm trying to get this information in the screenshot im sending without doing anything like message.author etc, i want to know if i can do it without a message.author, or without the user typing the command pinging that person and then doing message.mentions.users.first etcetc, my goal is to extract the information from a specific user without mentioning them when typing the command

you can fetch a
User with <Client>.users.fetch(<id>), but if you're specifically looking for the client user, you can just access <Client>.userclient user would be the person who wrote the command?
the client user refers to the user your client is logged in as, which is to say your bot
