Banned Words
Protect conversations before problems start.
Banned Words let you automatically block specific terms or phrases from being used in your server. Instead of waiting for moderators to react, Mochi quietly steps in the moment a restricted word appears — keeping conversations respectful and safe without constant oversight.
This tool is ideal for filtering:
Slurs or hate speech
Harassment or abusive language
Scam-related phrases
Server-specific no-go terms
Repeated problem words unique to your community
Banned Words work alongside Auto Moderation, giving you precise, intentional control over language boundaries.
