LazyUser usage

[riccardolunardi]

Hi!
In my self bot I use a lot the discord.ext.commands.Bot method bot.fetch_user(userId). This method is not supported on this version of the library, but I see that the method bot.get_user(userId) works, but it return a LazyUser type object.
My question is: how do I handle that object? Because even if it has some similiarities with the User object, it doesn't have any methods to use.
I have tried to look on this repo and the discord.py one but I didn't find anything userful.
Thanks in advance and nice job overall, this fork really avoided me some headache!

I may be wrong, but I think LazyUser objects use dictionary keys instead of attributes.

I didn't actually try that, I'll check it as soon as possible

LazyUser objects are a temporary workaround to Discord being stupid. They will be removed next version and replaced with full fat working User objects.
