Everyone role should be limited

Thanks. Does this necessitate tools ? Or can you handle all this with discord without additional apps ? (change people's groups when using a command / mute people if they post in the bait channel)

You will generally need a bot for this

For this server we mainly use Sapphire and YAGPDB for moderation and spam prevention, both offer options for this kind of role assignment.

Those are both very general-purpose though. You can probably find a much smaller bot with only the onboarding if you do not want the additional moderation tools

Carl/sapphire + translator
Dont give bots admin, only some specific roles

Poketwo is fun one for motivating people to chat
You can let it run wild or make an enclosure for it

You might also want one that count how chatty are people and promotes them with roles and badges

I want to say that generally I've found that if you can auto-ban what is being spammed you get mostly the same result with some things falling through still

Which is what this server does

Olivia brought this upon us by banning memes 😅
