False Positive Handling Update — AntiScamBOT
Summary
AntiScamBOT announces improved false-positive handling so staff-marked false positives apply to your server only. Image detections flagged as false positives will be avoided in that server, while repeated cross-server reports go to bot staff for manual review. The change preserves global scam protection and prevents abuse by malicious servers.
Patch Notes — June 22
Improved False Positive Handling
We’ve upgraded how AntiScamBot handles false-positive reports from server staff.
When staff click False Positive on a moderation alert, the bot now treats that report as a server-specific correction instead of changing detection globally.
What changed
- False-positive image reports now apply to your server only.
- If your staff mark an image detection as a false positive, AntiScamBot will avoid acting on that same image again in your server.
- This prevents one server from weakening protection for everyone else.
- If multiple independent servers report the same detection as a false positive, it will be sent to bot staff for manual review.
- Global detection behavior will not be changed automatically.
Abuse protection
To keep the bot safe:
- Only server staff can review moderation alerts.
- False-positive reports are counted by unique servers, not repeated clicks.
- One server cannot disable detections globally.
- Bot staff must review repeated cross-server false-positive reports before any global changes are made.
Why this matters
This makes AntiScamBot better at adapting to each community while keeping scam protection strong across all servers.
Your server gets more control over mistakes, but malicious servers cannot abuse the system to make scams harder to detect globally.
