Profanity Moderation
Keep conversations respectful and comfortable.
Every community has its own tone. Profanity Moderation helps you gently guide language in your server by responding when certain words appear — without interrupting normal conversation.
You decide what’s allowed, what’s filtered, and how Mochi responds.
Note: Ban Actions
Automatic bans are currently not supported by Discord auto moderation. At this time, Discord does not allow auto moderation rules to directly ban members.
If this policy changes in the future, Mochi will be updated to support it where appropriate.
Note: Timeout Availability
Timeout actions are not available for this rule. Due to limitations in Discord’s auto moderation system, timing out members is currently not supported for Anti Profanity and Anti Spam moderation.
If Discord expands auto moderation capabilities in the future, this option will be added where possible.
🌸 What Profanity Moderation Does
When enabled, Mochi watches for messages containing blocked words. If a match is detected, Mochi responds based on the options you choose.
This allows you to:
Reduce offensive language
Keep chats welcoming
Set clear expectations without constant reminders
⚙️ Anti-Profanity Options
Profanity moderation follows the same simple structure as Mochi’s other auto moderation tools.
💬 Custom Message
Send a friendly message when a blocked word is detected.
Example:
“Let’s keep language friendly here — thanks for understanding 😊”
A clear message helps members adjust without embarrassment.
🚨 Send Alert
When enabled, Mochi sends an alert whenever profanity moderation is triggered.
Turning this on unlocks:
📌 Logging Channel
Select the channel where profanity alerts should be sent. This keeps moderators informed while keeping moderation calm and private.
🚫 Ignored Channels
Choose channels where profanity moderation should not apply.
Useful for:
Vent channels
Mature or roleplay spaces
Staff-only areas
Messages in ignored channels will not trigger profanity moderation.
🎭 Allowed Roles
Select roles that are exempt from profanity moderation.
Members with these roles can use filtered words without triggering moderation. Helpful for:
Moderators and staff
Approved roleplay roles
Trusted community members
✅ Whitelisted Words
Add words that should always be allowed, even if they might otherwise be filtered.
This is useful for:
Words with multiple meanings
In-jokes or slang
Community-specific language
Whitelisted words bypass moderation checks.
🌱 Best Practices
Keep your blocked list intentional
Use whitelists to avoid false positives
Be clear in your custom messages
Enable alerts if moderation context matters
Review logs occasionally to refine settings
Good profanity moderation sets boundaries without feeling restrictive.
✨ Why It Matters
Clear language guidelines help:
Maintain a welcoming atmosphere
Reduce conflict
Support diverse audiences
Build trust in moderation
Profanity Moderation helps you guide tone gently — without constant intervention.
