Moderation (Active Sentry)

Active Sentry is Volvox.Bot’s moderation engine. It runs automatically and can be configured from the dashboard.

What it does

  • Auto-moderation — Automatically detect and act on spam, slurs, invite links, and more
  • Warnings — Issue warnings that accumulate and trigger escalating actions
  • Bans & Kicks — Full ban and kick support with reason tracking
  • Timeouts — Discord native timeouts with configurable durations
  • Cases — Every moderation action creates a case with full context

How to use

  1. Open the dashboard → Moderation for your server
  2. Review active cases, filter by type or member
  3. Use Config → Moderation to set up auto-mod rules and thresholds
Configure escalation rules so that repeated warnings automatically escalate to timeouts or bans.
