Auto-moderation

Infractions detection

Infractions are what triggers auto-moderation: sending a forbidden word, a forbidden link, etc. Sanctions are the moderation actions: warning the member, kicking them, banning them, etc.

From the panelUsing the /config command

⫸ Open the DraftBot panel

Go to the 🛡️ Auto-moderation section.

Click the icon of a module to configure it, and enable it with the button to the right of the .

Once it is configured, remember to save your changes with the Save button at the bottom of the page.

First go to the 🔨 Moderation category of the /config command, then press Infractions detection.

You can then configure the different modules:

Once in the module of your choice, remember to enable the system through the first button:

Every module includes these options, so they can be configured independently:

• Silent mode: if enabled, DraftBot does not reply to the infraction with an explanatory message.
• Ignored channels: channels where auto-moderation is disabled.
• Ignored roles: roles ignored by auto-moderation.

Forbidden vocabulary

You can choose expressions (words) that DraftBot blocks.

Adding a * at the beginning and/or the end of the word blocks words with a partial match: cat* detects cats, c a t, caaaaaat or c.a.t.

• The message blocking option blocks messages before they are sent, thanks to Discord's AutoMod system , while still counting the infraction in the member's history. As AutoMod also analyses voice channel statuses, an infraction detected there is flagged as such in its reason: "Detected in a voice channel status."

• If the censorship option is enabled, DraftBot resends the blocked message through a webhook with the user's name, their profile picture and the censored expression.

Discord invitations

This module forbids invitation links from being posted in your server's channels (invitations to your own server are not blocked).

• The allowed invitations option sets invitations that auto-moderation ignores.
• The immune servers option extends the previous one to every possible invitation of a particular server, by giving its ID.

• If the censorship option is enabled, DraftBot resends the message through a webhook with the user's name, their profile picture and the censored invitation link.

External links

This module forbids links from being posted on your server.

• The allowed/forbidden domain names option forbids or ignores only certain links by giving the domain name; draftbot.fr, for example.
• If the censorship option is enabled, DraftBot resends the message through a webhook with the user's name, their profile picture and the censored link.

Excessive uppercase

This module limits how much uppercase there is in messages.

• The percentage of uppercase is the maximum share of uppercase characters allowed in a message.
• The minimum number of characters is how many characters a message has to contain for auto-moderation to take it into account.

Excessive emojis

This module limits the use of emojis in messages.

• The percentage of emojis in the message is the minimum share of emojis a message has to contain for auto-moderation to take it into account.
• The minimum number of emojis is how many emojis a message has to contain for auto-moderation to take it into account.

Forbidden pings

This module forbids specific members or roles from being mentioned.

Select the mentions you want to forbid in the members or roles field.

• The message blocking option blocks messages containing the forbidden mention before they are sent, thanks to Discord's AutoMod system , while still counting the infraction in the member's history.

Excessive mentions

This module prevents mention spam.

• The time interval is the period during which the number of mentions sent by a member must not exceed the set limit.
• The mention limit is the maximum number of mentions a member can send during the set time interval.

• If the remove option is enabled, DraftBot deletes the messages containing the mention spam. Be careful, this causes ghost mentions.

• The message blocking option blocks messages before they are sent, thanks to Discord's AutoMod system , while still counting the infraction in the member's history.

Message spam

This module prevents message spam.

• The time interval is the period during which the number of messages sent by a member must not exceed the set limit.
• The message limit is the maximum number of messages allowed per member during the set time interval.

Forbidden Markdown

This module blocks the use of the Markdown of your choice among:

• Code block
• Inline code
• Masked link
• Spoiler
• Header
• Subtext
• List
• Quote

If Return without Markdown is enabled, DraftBot resends the blocked message through a webhook, with the user's name and profile picture, with the Markdown removed (enabled by default).

Automatic sanctions

Automatic sanctions apply moderation actions to members automatically after a set number of infractions.

From the panelUsing the /config command

⫸ Open the DraftBot panel

You can then configure the automatic sanctions.

Once your changes are done, remember to save them with the Save button on the right of the page.

First go to the 🔨 Moderation category of the /config command, then press Automatic sanctions.

You can then configure the automatic sanctions:

• Sanction: the type of sanction applied when the automatic sanction is triggered (a warn, for example).
• Number of infractions: once this number of infractions is reached, the automatic sanction is applied.

• Infraction: sets which type of infraction is counted for the automatic sanction.
• Time interval: the automatic sanction triggers if the number of infractions set above is reached during this time interval.
