Cosmobot setup

Steps to add Cosmobot to your public Cosmos related group:

1. Contact us in Telegram to whitelist the group

2. Add Cosmobot to your group. Cosmobot is @ibc_cosmobot and only that account

   Beware of impersonators

   Scam bots with look-alike names show up in Telegram search results next to Cosmobot. Do not add a bot you found through search. Open t.me/ibc_cosmobot instead, and check that the username reads exactly @ibc_cosmobot before making it an admin.

3. Make Cosmobot an admin with few basic permissions

   1. Permission to ban users
   2. Permission to delete messages
   3. More permissions might be needed if specific features are required

4. [Optional] Send us a list of group admins to be promoted as Cosmobot Elevated users

Cosmobot can work in tandem with other bots, but there should only be one captcha. Otherwise there is a risk of interference, which can yield unpredictable results (one bot bans, another one unbans, etc).

Cosmobot Elevated users

Once Cosmobot is in a group we might assign a few admins from this group as Cosmobot Elevated users. Elevated users are able to use Cosmobot power commands like ban, mute, set captcha, etc. Elevated user commands are described here. Recommended quickstart commands are #modintro and #modguide.
