Retroactive consent/indexing
I realized that the bot is indexing posts created before the bot was added to the server.
I assume this only applies to users that consented after the bot has been added?

Disable bot responses
I saw that AnswerOverflow includes messages from other bots.
These messages can be there for housekeeping/similar reasons. Is it possible to disable that behavior (at least for specific bots)?

Mark as solved via API
I am thinking about whether this bot would be applicable in some server that already has its own bot-supported help system.
Is it possible to mark a question as solved via some API? I wouldn't really want to require users to use both the server-tooling and the Answer Overflow bot in order to mark a question as solved (and I would also only mark posts as solved instead of messages since solutions often span over multiple messages).
I guess the only solution would be to add a solved tag with the bot (or to not mark questions as solved). I assume this would work and not change anything about consent?

Consent with multiple users
The docs mention:
In order to comply with the Discord terms of service and respect user privacy, Answer Overflow requires users to provide consent to publicly display their messages.So, if the asker in the help channel consented but other people (possibly giving the answer) didn't, will the post still be indexed? If so, I guess it only shows messages of the actual user? Does it also provide some information about messages being missing on the website?
