When the bot first boots, this results in the status being set to #Not loaded.
On the next loop of status_loop (120s later) however it finds the channel fine and works.

This same issue was also tested in the same bot, in the on_ready as shown below.
This on_ready prints None yet if the same print is later eval'ed it finds the channel fine.

The channel id in self.config.support_auto is an integer snowflake of a channel known to exist in the one guild this bot is in.
This is shown true by the fact both the later loops of status and the eval'ing finding the channel fine.

What this suggests to me, imo, is that d.py has the guild id but absolutely nothing else.
The guild has 48 text channels, not 0.
