Moderation

AutoMod is its own module, at Dashboard → your server → AutoMod. It holds a list of rules. Each rule has one trigger, one or more actions, and its own list of roles, channels and members that it skips.

Rules are checked in order of priority and the first rule that matches ends the check for that message. The server owner is skipped by every rule.

Block message deletes it, Warn user sends a warning, Timeout user mutes them for the duration on the rule, and Alert moderators posts a notice. A rule can carry several at once.

The timeout durations the rule editor offers are 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes and 1 hour, plus 24 hours on rules that allow the longer list.

A preset fills the rule list in one step. Merge adds the preset rules to what you already have, replace throws your list away first. Merge is what happens if you do not choose.

Sync from Discord reads the AutoMod rules Discord itself holds into your list. Sync to Discord writes yours back the other way.

/warn add writes the warning, opens a moderation case and adds a strike in one go. Dashboard → your server → Warn System lists every warning in the server, and lets you add or delete one from the browser.

A warning added from the dashboard takes a reason of up to 1000 characters, a severity from 1 to 5, an optional expiry date, and can open a case for itself.

/warn list shows a member's active warnings. /warn remove deletes one, by id or the most recent.

Dashboard → your server → Case Management. A case has a number in the form CASE-000001, a type (ban, kick, mute, warn, note or other), a status, the member, the moderator, a reason of up to 2000 characters, evidence, an optional assignee and an optional expiry.

You can comment on a case; a comment is at most 2000 characters and can be marked internal. Setting a case to resolved or closed stamps the time and who did it.

Private staff notes on a member. /member-notes add, /member-notes list and /member-notes remove in Discord, or Dashboard → your server → Member Notes. Both write the same notes. A note is at most 2000 characters and /member-notes list shows the 25 most recent.

From the dashboard a note also carries a type (note, warning, positive or other), a pin flag and an optional case reference. A note added with the command carries only its text.

/slowmode sets a rate limit on one channel by hand and needs Manage Channels. The Slowmode Manager module raises and lowers it on its own, per channel, from how busy that channel is.

Busy is measured in messages per minute. At or above the activity threshold the slowmode goes up: from zero it jumps to 5 seconds or your minimum, whichever is higher, and after that it doubles. At or below half the threshold it halves again, never past your base or minimum. In between it is left alone.

Base, minimum and maximum slowmode are in seconds, from 0 to 21600. That ceiling is Discord's own. The activity threshold is 1 to 1000 messages, and the adjustment interval is 60 to 3600 seconds. A new server starts at base 0, minimum 0, maximum 21600, threshold 10 and interval 300.

The interval is a floor on how often one channel may move, so a channel climbs in steps instead of jumping every cycle. The bot never checks a channel more than once every 30 seconds regardless.

If the slowmode on a channel is already above your maximum, it is left alone: somebody set that on purpose. Channels on the exclusion list are skipped, and messages from excluded roles do not count towards the rate. A log channel gets one line per change.
