Autoban

Off by default

Autoban removes accounts the moment they join when they match your rules: brand-new accounts, usernames that match a pattern, invite links in names or accounts with no avatar.

Set it up

  1. Open the dashboard and pick your server. Sign in with Discord if you haven’t.

  2. Find Autoban in the sidebar (or press ⌘K and type its name) and turn it on.

  3. Go through the settings below. Simple mode shows the essentials; switch to Advanced for the rest.

  4. Changes apply in your server within a few seconds of saving.

Tips

  • Pair an account-age rule with a kick instead of a ban while you tune it.
