Discord moderation bot
AdviceBot watches your chat and your joins before you even notice. Automod filters bad words, links, invites and spam, while Anti-Raid detects a wave of new accounts and can lock the server down by itself.
What the Moderation module can do
Content filters
Bad words, disallowed links (with an exception list), invites to other servers and mention spam - each rule is switched on and punished separately.
Escalating punishments
A first warning is usually a notice, the next one a timeout, and later ones a stricter punishment. You choose how many steps there are.
Anti-spam
Repeated messages, link spam and too many emojis or attachments in a short time - detected separately from Automod.
Raid detection
The bot tracks join speed and the age and avatars of new accounts, and warns you when it looks like a coordinated attack.
Lockdown mode
With one click (or automatically) the bot blocks messages, links and new members and raises slowmode across the whole server.
Event log
Every warning, punishment and incident goes to the logs, so your team can see what happened and who handled it.
How to set it up
- 1
Add AdviceBot to your server and sign in to the dashboard with Discord.
- 2
Pick your server and open the Automod module - turn on the filters you need and set the punishments.
- 3
In the Anti-Raid module, set the detection threshold and what should happen when the bot spots unusual activity.
- 4
Save. The bot watches your chat and joins on its own, in the background.
Automod filters, anti-spam and lockdown mode work on the free plan. Premium raises the number of punishment escalation steps - from 2 on the free plan up to 10 on Premium Ultra. See Premium
Frequently asked questions
Is the moderation bot free?
Yes. Automod filters, anti-spam and raid protection with lockdown mode work on the free plan. Premium adds more escalation steps.
Can I allow some links?
Yes. The link filter has an allowed-domains list and a separate exception for links to images and videos.
What does lockdown mode do?
It blocks messages server-wide, stops links and new members, raises slowmode and turns on the highest protection level. Turning it off restores the previous permissions.
Does raid protection turn on by itself?
Yes, you can set an automatic reaction for when the bot detects a wave of new accounts, or start lockdown manually with one click.
Can I see who the bot punished and why?
Yes. Every warning and punishment goes into the event log with the reason and the time.
