Safety & Moderation Updates for Server Listings

Original Post

We will protize safety & security issues around our server listing. Our own data shows that it is not a problem for our server listing page so far.. but as we grow, it is a problem facing all server listing sites, here are some action steps that we will take

(1) NSFW reclassification. I understand that there are some servers that are partially age gated, we will allow server owners to self-disclose different degrees of NSFW. It is likely that we will NOT "promote" any servers that are fully NSFW (yet to be finalized)

(2) AI for moderations. Using AI to see if there are any sensitive keywords to either flag or completely de-list a server.

(3) Human minitoring. Allow users to report incidents where a server is NSFW, or illegal in natural and have mecahnism to handle those reports in a timely manner.

(4) We are aware that bot accounts love to use server listing sites to join and spam other discords servers. Since users can join a discord from our site without logging in, this is gonna take a bit efforts to report and flag on a global scales.

We know there are a lot of healthy wholesome servers in relatively sensitive areas, would love to learn how you guys make sure that the server is safe and secure.

We will start working on this issues more comprehensivey during the holiday period.
