Banning a Member

When a line needs to be firmly drawn.

Banning permanently removes a member from your server. It’s used for serious or repeated issues where continued access would harm the community. Because bans are impactful, they should be applied thoughtfully, consistently, and with clear reasoning.

Bans are best used for:

  • Severe rule violations

  • Harassment or abuse

  • Repeated issues after warnings or kicks

  • Spam, scams, or malicious behavior

All ban actions are logged to keep moderation transparent and accountable.

A ban should protect the community — not escalate drama.


✨ Why It Matters

Banning:

When used carefully, bans help maintain a space where everyone else can feel safe and respected.
