Hi there!

Not in a "nice way"
I'm intrigued, what don't you want to change items that have not been
created by the bot?
Surely if they have the correct ID then that's all okay?

Mind going into a bit more detail? :)
If not I can point you in the direction of an API that would let you know
who created an item.
