Is this internal to the discord, or discussing the processes groups can use IRL?

Since it's in the "Other" channel category, my guess is that it's for the discord

We should automate some of this. What can the bots do?

You'd have to give a bot a list of prohibited terms, I think bots can assign roles, so you'd create a role that was restricted to specific channels (or none), have the bot assign the role when it sees someone use the list of prohibited terms and unassign the role after a period of time. I don't think they can do much more than that. I've seen that done to force people into a hidden mediation channel that only mods and the individual can access, where the mods then discuss the infraction with the individual to determine what long term solution is needed if any. This role could be assigned by a mod as well without the bot for things that are detriments but not using obvious terms. Like you probably wouldn't include Maoist buzzwords... but Maoists love to infiltrate discords to sow dissent in more subtle ways than spouting off racist slurs. But I would only personally take such a step (as a server owner implementing it) after an open participation consensus discussion to determine what terms were and what the consequences could be.

I was thinking more like we could use a bot to collect misconduct reports and evidence. Then whoever is reviewing that information can do it with discretion, rather than having an open dialog where accusations are sprayed around.

Denying the conflict a spectacle is key counterfascism.

If you know of a system that works like this, I would love to see it. I could use it on some of my other projects.

It's hard to be the first or only person with a good idea. Let's have a look around and compare approximate matches that already exist.

Hey @1uc2 @Spinner I'm pretty much the IT person on the server, should I look into this further?

You can, but the major hurdle is developing the human procedure to review the bot's actions. And I personally would rather that be done through an open forum consensus based discussion creation and decision to implement. After implementation the guidelines should then be posted in such a way that all participants of the discord must agree to those processes in order to participate.

This seems like a topic for a public meeting. I'll start researching options nonetheless

Generally however I oppose taking those steps unless it's proven to be an existing problem that needs to be addressed.

I agree actually. I think a strong human moderation team is good for now but I think it's still worth a discussion.

I was thinking a bot would be a great "complaints box" to collect complaints for human review. Later, if needs become apparent and justified, additional logic can be added.

A system that I've used on other servers is a tocketsbots to create temporary private channels between a user and mods

Or if we want to preserve anonymity an online survey could be uwed

The problem with complaints boxes is, the chill folks don't lodge complaints... so the things that get reported have to be taken with a grain of salt or 10.

Well, we have them link to messages and review them for ourselves

I don't know why we haven't. Someone saying that out loud at a punk show would be carried out, and if they fought back they'd end up in a hospital. Booting him from the disco is really a very polite alternative.

Has anyone actually spoken to this guy? Is this just a troll or some edgelord kind of kid? Using my “photography skills” reads like edgelord crap

either way I have few reservations about banning someone who is both inactive and possibly a threat
