Rรฉsumรฉ
๐๐ญ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ has strengthened server security to reduce bots and GFX scams. New members must have Discord accounts older than 30 days, and server verification now requires members to wait at least 10 minutes before messaging. These measures complement existing captchas and detection tools to improve community safety and enjoyment.
Improved server security update for bot prevention
Bots and GFX scam artists are very annoying and they're rampant on Discord, many servers with a sizable member count experiences this same issue.
We've made changes to prevent bots and GFX scam artists(this will stop at least +40% more of them, but not all entirely).
- Server verification level set to high, members can't send messages for at least 10 minutes, whilst this won't stop sending DM's, it's a good thing to have anyways.
- NEW members.. must have their account ABOVE 30 days old to be able to access! A great amount of bots / scam artists make new accounts often so this will be very beneficial keeping at least +40% more bots out of the server in addition to all of our other server protection in place, captchas and detection software with the use of our bots(MEE6, dyno, wick). There's no concern this will affect legit individuals as 95%+ have a much older account age, the trade off is worth it for how much these GFX scam artists and bots affects members enjoyment and safety.
