🔒 The State of Discord Moderation in 2025
With AI raids and scam links on the rise, smart moderation is critical.
🧰 Essential Moderation Tools
- Auto-Mod (native Discord)
- Wick Bot: AI-based raid protection
- Dyno or Carl-bot: Kick/Ban logs, role guards
- ModMail: Private support tickets
📏 Community Guidelines That Work
- Use short, simple rules
- Pin a visual ruleset with emojis
- Add automated warnings → temp bans
👮 Staff Team Tips
- Build a timezone-spread mod team
- Give mods a private lounge for coordination
- Set up mod-only alerts (ping on key events)
