Moderation Logs & Visibility
Clarity builds trust. Visibility builds confidence.
Moderation works best when actions are visible, consistent, and accountable. Moderation logs give your team a shared record of what’s happening — so there’s no guesswork, no confusion, and no “who did what?” moments.
This section explains what Mochi logs, why it matters, and how moderators should use logs as part of a healthy moderation culture.
⚠️ This section assumes you’ve already set up Moderation Roles & Logs during onboarding.
What Gets Logged
Once moderation logging is enabled, Mochi records key moderation actions such as:
⚠️ Warnings issued to members
🧹 Messages removed or purged
🚪 Kicks and bans
🛑 Auto moderation actions (when enabled)
🔁 Role changes triggered by moderation tools
Each log entry is timestamped and clearly labeled, making it easy to understand what happened at a glance.
Logs are designed to be informative, not noisy — they surface important actions without overwhelming your moderators.
Understanding Moderation Events
Every moderation event tells a short story.
A typical log entry includes:
Who took the action
Who it affected
What action was taken
When it happened
Why it occurred (when applicable)
This context helps moderators:
Review past decisions
Spot patterns of behavior
Resolve disputes calmly
Support each other during moderation handovers
No guesswork. No second-guessing.
Using Logs for Transparency
Logs aren’t just for moderators — they protect everyone.
Used well, moderation logs:
Create accountability
Prevent misunderstandings
Reduce internal conflict
Build trust with your community
When actions are visible, moderation feels fair, not arbitrary.
Even in small servers, logs provide peace of mind:
“If something happens, we can always check.”
That confidence matters.
Best Practices for Log Visibility
Keep moderation logs private to staff
Review logs regularly, not just during conflict
Use logs as learning tools, not weapons
Avoid public shaming — logs are for clarity, not punishment
A healthy moderation team uses logs to support decisions, not to police each other.
Why It Matters
Clear logs lead to:
Better decisions
Stronger moderation teams
Safer communities
Less drama
Mochi doesn’t just log actions — she helps you build a culture of trust through visibility.
