Server Moderation (Manual)
A special thanks to my friend and partner, NaviKing#3820, for the design of this module.
The purpose of this module is to warn users, track their infractions, and give the moderators the power to punish users accordingly.
In order to fully take advantage of this module, enabling the case/scoring system is suggested. The scoring system is enabled if the Warning log is enabled in a server channel. Please refer to the Server Activity Logging section in the Administration module documentation.
Configuration Commands
These configuration commands are only enabled for those with Manage Server permissions. The usage of these commands will be recorded in the Moderation log.
!modrole
Command Syntax
!modrole [add/remove] [role id(s)/mention(s)/q_name(s)]
Command Description
Adds or removes a role as a moderator role (Mod Role), enabling/disabling them to use the moderation module regardless of other permissions on their roles. Provide no arguments to show the current mod roles.

Moderation Commands
These moderation commands are the actual commands that are used to apply moderation actions. Each one of the following commands will be very similar in nature, and thus the common features of the commands will be discussed together in this section, and the specifics of each command in subsections.
Collectively, these commands will be referred to as “warning commands”.
The list of “warning commands” is the following:
!warn
!kick
!ban
!delayban
!mute
!imageban
!cban
!cmute
!cimageban
By default, warning commands will generate a new case if the Warning log is active. Upon generating a case, a DM will be sent to the target user(s), notifying them of the moderation action that has been triggered on them, who issued the moderation action and the specifics of the rules that are broken, if applicable. Please refer to the “Warning Point System” section below for more details about the rules system.
These commands support being used on multiple users at once: if more than one user is targeted by these commands, the parameters will be parallelized for all of the users, while multiple cases will be generated.
The following commands also support being set as “automatically expiring after X time”:
!mute
!delayban
!imageban
!cban
!cmute
!cimageban
This is achieved by prepending the target users with a time code.
Note
This time setting will overwrite the previous setting each time the command is run on a specified user: this also applies to converting a permanent action into a timed one and vice-versa, without removing the role on the target user.
(Common) Command Syntax
!{warning command} [duration timecode] [channel id/mention/q_name {only for channel-specific commands}] (user id(s)/mention(s)/q_name(s)) [--rule {rule id/name/alias}] [--reason {textual description}] [--attachments {urls}] [--padj {signed/unsigned number}] [--justification {textual justification}] [--skip-case] [--skip-dm]
(Common) Command Description
Informs the user(s) via DM that they have been warned/muted/banned/etc., including the rule that they broke, the specific reason, attachments, and who warned them. These arguments are all optional when running warning commands (only the user identifier is required). If applicable, the --reason
parameter will appear in the Discord native audit log as well.
If all of these arguments are skipped, the message will simply read “You were warned/muted/banned by [moderator].”.
Channel specific commands which are missing the channel parameter will default to being targeted to the current channel. Channels that support time-based expiration (see above) will be treated as permanent if the timecode is missing.
You can skip generating a case by appending the --skip-case
tag. You can skip sending the DM (but still generate a case) by appending the --skip-dm
tag. --skip-case
also implies --skip-dm
.
Note
When --skip-dm
is used, a small 🔕 emoji will appear on the corresponding notification and warning log embed footer to track the fact that the action was “silent”.
Every warning, by default, will be worth a certain number of points based on the rule broken (as described in the “Warning Point System” section below.
The --padj
, or “points added/subtracted” argument, is completely optional and will not be included in the DM even if it is included in the command. Any signed number (“+” or “-”) will be treated as a “delta” value over the default rule score, while an unsigned number will be treated as a fixed, absolute value and used as the actual warning score. The justification for points added/subtracted is invalid if no points were added or subtracted and should be ignored if the moderator does not add or subtract any points.
Each one of the command parameters has one or more aliases. Here are the available aliases:
--rule
:--r
--reason
:--rs
--attachments
:--attachment
--att
--a
--padj
:--pa
--p
--justification
:--just
--j
--skip-case
:--skipcase
--nocase
--no-case
--skip-dm
:--skipdm
--nodm
--no-dm
Running the command as the “description” of a Discord attachment (e.g. by drag-and-dropping an image over the Discord client) will automatically add that object as the warning case attachment, even if the --attachments
parameter is skipped.
As said above, these commands will automatically generate a server-specific case ID that can be used as reference in other commands. An embed including the following information will also be generated and put into the warning log:
Warning Type (warn/mute/ban/etc.)
Warned user’s name
Warned user’s ID
Mod Name
Rule broken
Reason
Attachment (as embed’s image, if applicable)
Points added/subtracted (optional)
Justification (only if points are added/subtracted)
Total unexpired points as of warning for this user
Suggested moderation action & number of points to next warning threshold
Case ID & timestamp (in footer)
If any of the rule, reason or attachments parameters are missing, the bot will tag the moderator upon action log generation prompting them to fill in the missing arguments using the !edit command. The bot will also tag the moderator the first time that the user reaches a suggested action threshold.
Some moderation action commands have a “un-” version that reverts the corresponding moderation action. “un-” commands will follow a similar syntax but will never generate a new case, hence rendering the set of warning parameters (every parameter after the user identifier(s)) useless.
What follows is a list of all of the commands in this section. As already said, each command description and syntax will be a diff over the common syntax shown here.
!warn
Command Description
!warn does nothing but DM the user(s) with their warning. Its purpose is to officially record an infraction so that the accumulation of infractions can later be used to justify a mute or a ban (see the “Warning Point System” described later).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Examples
!warn @cycloptux#1543 --rule Discord ToS --reason The user is under 13 years of age --padj -2 --justification Testing the command
!kick
Command Description
Kicks the target user(s) from the current server. The user may be able to join the server again through a working invite.
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!mute
Command Description
!mute applies the role configured in !muterole (or creates a default “Muted Users” role at the bottom of the role list with no permissions if the mute role is not configured) to the target user(s) and sets all channel permissions (except for the ones configured as mute chat(s)) for the mute role, as described in the previous sections.
The specific permissions for this command will be set (or checked/updated) every time the command is run, hence making the command slightly slower than usual. This is normal.
The mute can be permanent (users will be muted until manual removal) or timed (users will be unmuted automatically after a certain time span).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!ban
Command Syntax
!ban [24/7] ...
Command Description
!ban has one additional, optional argument before the user identifier(s): either the number 24, or the number 7. If this argument is omitted, the user is banned without their message history being deleted. Otherwise, the bot uses the native ban API to delete the last 24 hours or 7 days of the banned users’ message history.
The same parameter can also be passed by using the --days
argument (e.g. --days 1
or --days 7
). --days
also has the following aliases: --msgdays
--delmsg
--purge
--d
This command also works for banning users that are currently not in the server, as long as the user is known/cached by the bot. It is advised to use the user ID for that.
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!timeban
Command Description
!timeban bans a user from the current server for the specified amount of time.
Once the ban period has ended, as long as the user hasn’t been permanently banned by “overwriting” the timed ban with a fully fledged !ban (or manually re-allowed through !unban), the ban will be automatically lifted. If the time argument is omitted, it will default to 24 hours.
Please allow for up to 1 extra minute before the ban is actually lifted after it has officially expired.
This command also works for banning users that are currently not in the server, as long as the user is known/cached by the bot. It is advised to use the user ID for that.
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!delayban
Command Description
!delayban mutes a user for the specified amount of time. If this mute status isn’t removed with !cancelban before the timer is out, the user will be banned from the server. If the time argument is omitted, it will default to 24 hours.
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!imageban
Command Description
!imageban applies the role configured in !imagebanrole (or creates a default “Image Banned Users” role at the bottom of the role list with no permissions if the image ban role is not configured) to the target user(s) and sets all channel permissions for the image ban role, as described in the previous sections.
The specific permissions for this command will be set (or checked/updated) every time the command is run, hence making the command slightly slower than usual. This is normal.
The image ban can be permanent (users will be image banned until manual removal) or timed (users will be image unbanned automatically after a certain time span).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!cban
Command Description
!cban applies the role configured in !channelbanrole (or creates a default “#%channel% Banned Users” role at the bottom of the role list with no permissions if the channel ban role is not configured) to the target user(s) and sets the channel permissions for the ban role, as described in the previous sections.
The specific permissions for this command will be set (or checked/updated) every time the command is run, hence making the command slightly slower than usual. This is normal.
The channel ban can be permanent (users will be channel banned until manual removal) or timed (users will be channel unbanned automatically after a certain time span).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!cmute
Command Description
!cmute applies the role configured in !channelmuterole (or creates a default “#%channel% Muted Users” role at the bottom of the role list with no permissions if the channel mute role is not configured) to the target user(s) and sets the channel permissions for the mute role, as described in the previous sections.
The specific permissions for this command will be set (or checked/updated) every time the command is run, hence making the command slightly slower than usual. This is normal.
The channel mute can be permanent (users will be channel muted until manual removal) or timed (users will be channel unmuted automatically after a certain time span).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.
Permissions Needed
!cimageban
Command Description
!cimageban applies the role configured in !channelimagebanrole (or creates a default “#%channel% Image Banned Users” role at the bottom of the role list with no permissions if the channel image ban role is not configured) to the target user(s) and sets the channel permissions for the image ban role, as described in the previous sections.
The specific permissions for this command will be set (or checked/updated) every time the command is run, hence making the command slightly slower than usual. This is normal.
The channel image ban can be permanent (users will be channel image banned until manual removal) or timed (users will be channel image unbanned automatically after a certain time span).
Refer to Moderation Commands for the exact command syntax.

Permissions Needed
Utility Commands
These moderation commands may be used in conjunction with the rest of the moderation module to keep your server clean.
!prune
Command Syntax
!prune (# of messages) [filter item] [--ignore {filter ignore}]
Command Description
Deletes a certain number of messages from the channel in which the command is run. For security reasons, the bot caps this number to 250 messages.
The filter items serve to delete/ignore a subset of messages in the set of messages specified by the integer argument. The list of available filters is:
images
: deletes all images in the set of messagesbots
: deletes all messages from bots in the set of messageslinks
: deletes all messages with links in the set of messagesemojis
: deletes all messages with emojis in the set of messagesreactions
: deletes all of the reactions off of the messages in the set of messages, not the messages themselvesembeds
: deletes all embeds in the set of messages (this doesn’t include embeds that are generated by links, seelinks
for that)text
: deletes messages that only contain plain text in the set of messagesinvites
: deletes messages containing Discord invites in the set of messagesmentions
: deletes messages containing a mention to a user, role, “@everyone” or “@here” in the set of messages{user mention}
: deletes messages sent by the specified user in the set of messages{any text string}
: deletes messages containing matching text from the supplied text string in the set of messages (for example, !prune 100 “donald trump” would delete all messages containing “donald trump” in the last 100 messages)
You can add an --ignore
tag, combined with the aforementioned filter items, to ignore (and not delete) messages meeting that criteria. For example “!purge 100 bots –ignore embeds” would delete all bot messages that weren’t embeds.
Permissions Needed
Examples
!prune 100 !purge 250 bots !clear 150 @cycloptux#1543 --ignore images
!slowmode
Command Syntax
!slowmode [time code] [channel id(s)/mention(s)/q_name(s)] [--admode]
Command Description
Sets slow mode for the current, or the selected, channels. This command leverages 2 different systems:
If the slow mode time code is within Discord’s native slow mode time limit (less than 6 hours), the native slow mode is applied.
If the slow mode time code exceeds Discord’s native time limit (more than 6 hours, up to 1 year), the bot will apply an “extended slow mode” status.
The extended slow mode applies a minimal native slow mode to make sure the “Slowmode is enabled” message is shown. At the same time, each message sent by an unauthorized user will be automatically deleted, and the user will be notified of the applied slow mode.
The extended slow mode doesn’t have a higher cap.
Using the command without any argument will show the current settings for the server. Using the command with 0 in place of the time code will disable the slow mode for the current, or the selected, channel(s).
The usage of the optional --admode
parameter will enable the Auto-Delete mode, a.k.a. Bump Mode. If the extended slow mode is active (this mode will not work on native slow mode), each message that is successfully sent into the slowed channel will also trigger an automatic deletion of the previous message sent by the user while slow mode is active.
Permissions Needed
Examples
!sm 1h45m #slow-channel !sm 0 #slow-channel-1 #slow-channel-2 !slowmode
Evasion Actions
In addition to the active behavior of the warning commands, the following commands also support a special “evasion” action log:
!mute
!imageban
!cban
!cmute
!cimageban
An “evasion” action happens when a user that is hit with one of these moderation actions leaves the server and rejoins while the corresponding role is still supposed to be up (either because the timed role still has to expire, or the role has been set as permanent by skipping the corresponding time code).
If still applicable, the role will be applied again as soon as the user rejoins the server and an “evasion” log will appear in the warning log.
Warning Point System
To account for the nature and severity of various infractions, users will incur a certain number of points based on which rule they break. Moderators will be able to use their judgment to adjust the default value of an infraction by adding or subtracting points from the warning. At certain point thresholds, it is recommended that certain moderation actions (such as a mute or ban) be taken against the user.
This section will describe the details of the “default” warning point system backend as well as point out options or commands to configure parts of the system.
Point Accumulation and Thresholds
In addition to a user’s total points being the sum of the points of their infractions, the following rules apply to points:
Warning points expire after 90 days, at which point the value of the infraction decreases to 1.
The first warning for a particular rule is considered to be a “soft warning” and worth half points (e.g., if a user broke the toxic attitudes rule and the NSFW rule, both infractions would be recorded at half points, but breaking the toxic attitudes rule twice would result in the second infraction being recorded at full points). This behavior can be configured with !halflogic.
Each case score can be manually adjusted (
--padj
) but it must always be >= 0. Validation rules are in place for a score not to be negative. Any adjustment that brings the score to a negative value will make the score account for 0.In order to preserve the severity of a banned user’s warning history, points for banned users will not expire while the user is banned. Unbanning a user will make the points behave as usual again.
The following thresholds apply to the point total of a user. A user reaching one of these thresholds will cause the action log message related to that warning to include a tag of the issuing moderator informing him/her of the user reaching the threshold.
18 unexpired points: The bot will recommend in the action log that the user in question be muted.
27 unexpired points: The bot will recommend in the action log that the user in question be banned.
54 points total, even if expired: The bot will recommend in the action log that the user in question be banned. This is referred to as the “absolute ban threshold”.
(not implemented yet) Three channel specific warnings: The bot will recommend in the action log that the user be banned from that specific channel, regardless of the total point value. A user can simultaneously reach this threshold and the point thresholds, and the message in the action log should be constructed accordingly.
The justification for these thresholds are as follows:
Rules are given point values based on a severity from 1 to 10.
Since the first infraction is worth half points, only even numbers should be used for rule values.
6 is the average rule value.
A “full warning” (i.e., one soft warning and one regular warning) would be 9 points on average.
Two “full warnings” should result in a mute, and three should result in a ban.
The absolute ban threshold is twice the ban threshold, a considerable feat even in one’s lifetime of the server.
Default Rules and Points
Ideally, users would configure their own rules and point values. However, there are definitely some rules that are common among servers and can be provided as a default hard-coded table. The default table is provided to use as a base:

!listrules [rule id/name/alias] [--server] [--channel [channel id/mention/q_name]] [--mod]
Command Description
Lists the rules (both custom and default sets) of the server in order by Rule ID, including the Rule Title and Description for each rule. Provide an ID/Name/Alias to show a specific rule only. By default, the list will show both server wide and channel-specific rules. Use --server
to limit the rules to the server wide ones. Use --channel
with a channel tag to show only channel specific rules for that channel (omitting the channel identifier will show the rules for the current channel).
The rule alias and points will be shown if a moderator or administrator appends the --mod
parameter to the command.
Examples
!listrules !listrules --channel #general !listrules NSFW --mod
!addrule
Command Syntax
!addrule (--name {rule name}) (--alias {rule alias}) (--description {rule description}) (--points {rule points (number)}) [--channel [channel id/mention/q_name]]
Command Description
Adds a custom rule to the rules list. Adding a custom rule generates a server-specific rule ID for that rule automatically, starting from s_1
. Adding a channel identifier will assign that rule as being channel-specific (this is primarily used to track how close a user is to reaching a channel ban threshold)
Note
Channel ban thresholds are not implemented yet.
Permissions Needed
!deleterule
Command Syntax
!delrule (rule(s) id/name/alias)
Command Description
Deletes a custom rule from the list of rules. Use !toggleglobalrule to hide a default rule from the list of rules (see below).
Note
In order to preserve the history of users that were previously moderated according to a specific rule, “deleted” rules are never actually deleted. “Deleted” rules are instead hidden, and running the !deleterule again on the same rule ID will restore the rule in its previous, visible state.
Permissions Needed
!toggleglobalrule
Command Syntax
!toggleglobalrule (rule(s) id/name/alias)
Command Description
Deletes (hides) a default native rule from the list of rules. Use !deleterule to hide a custom rule from the list of rules (see above).
Note
In order to preserve the history of users that were previously moderated according to a specific rule, “deleted” rules are never actually deleted. “Deleted” rules are instead hidden, and running the !toggleglobalrule again on the same rule ID will restore the rule in its previous, visible state.
Permissions Needed
!editrule
Command Syntax
!editrule (rule id/name/alias) [--name {rule name}] [--alias {rule alias}] [--description {rule description}] [--points {rule points (number)}] [--channel [-/channel id/mention/q_name]]
Command Description
Updates one or more fields of an existing rule to the new values.
Use --channel -
to convert a channel-specific rule into a server wide rule.
Permissions Needed
!halflogic
Command Syntax
!halflogic (none/first/first-with-points/each)
Command Description
As described in Point Accumulation and Thresholds, the first warning for a particular rule is considered to be a “soft warning” and worth half points by default. This behavior can be configured as follows:
none: Don’t halve the points for any warnings.
first: Only halve the first warning a user receives (server-wide).
first-with-points: Only halve the first warning a user receives excluding 0-points rules warnings (server-wide).
each: Halve the first warning a user receives under each rule (default).
Using the command with no arguments will show the current settings for the server.
Permissions Needed
!warnexpiry (not implemented yet)
Command Syntax
!warnexpiry (# of days)
Command Description
Sets the number of days after which warnings will expire for a particular server. Provide no arguments to reset to the default.
Permissions Needed
!expirypoints (not implemented yet)
Command Syntax
!expirypoints (# of points)
Command Description
Sets the number of points a warning will decay to after they expire. Provide no arguments to reset to the default.
Any warnings worth fewer points than the !expirypoints value will not decay.
Permissions Needed
!setthreshold (not implemented yet)
Command Syntax
!setthreshold ("mute"/"ban"/"absban") (# of points)
Command Description
Sets the number of points at which a mute, ban, or “absolute ban” is recommended. Integrity checks should ensure that mute points < ban points < absolute ban points.
