I'll start by saying I'm very new with Python. I've been building a Discord bot with discord.py and Beautiful Soup 4. Here's where I'm at:
@commands.command(hidden=True)
async def roster(self):
"""Gets a list of CD's members"""
url = "http://www.clandestine.pw/roster.html"
async with aiohttp.get(url) as response:
soupObject = BeautifulSoup(await response.text(), "html.parser")
try:
text = soupObject.find_all("font", attrs={'size': '4'})
await self.bot.say(text)
except:
await self.bot.say("Not found!")
Here's the output:
Now, I've tried using get_text() in multiple different ways to strip the brackets and HTML tags from this code, but it throws an error each time. How would I be able to either achieve that or output this data into an array or list and then just print the plain text?

Replace
text = soupObject.find_all("font", attrs={'size': '4'})
with this:
all_font_tags = soupObject.find_all("font", attrs={'size': '4'})
list_of_inner_text = [x.text for x in all_font_tags]
# If you want to print the text as a comma separated string
text = ', '.join(list_of_inner_text)
