Hey everyone, I’m trying to figure out how to stop certain apps or bots from being used in my Discord server. It’s kind of frustrating because people can bring in their own apps, even if they’re not actually in the server themselves.
For example, there’s this weird app called ‘vegetable enlarger’ that I really don’t want anyone using. Is there a way to block specific apps like this? Or maybe set up some kind of filter?
I’m not super tech-savvy, so any simple explanations would be great. Thanks in advance for your help!
I’ve dealt with similar issues in my server, and here’s what worked for me. First off, utilize Discord’s built-in ‘Server Settings > Safety Setup’ feature. It’s a godsend for blocking problematic apps and bots without much hassle. Also, consider setting up a custom bot that automatically kicks users who attempt to use banned applications. I wrote a simple script for this, and it’s been incredibly effective. Lastly, don’t underestimate the power of clear server rules and active moderation. Sometimes, a firm but fair approach can deter users from even trying to use unwanted apps in the first place. Remember, it’s your server - you set the tone and the rules.
yo david, u can try using discord’s built-in integrations menu. go to server settings > integrations and u’ll see a list of apps n bots. from there u can block specific ones or even set up rules for wat kinda apps are allowed. hope that helps man!
As a server owner, you have several options to control app usage. One effective method is implementing a verification system for new members. This adds a layer of security and allows you to vet users before they can interact. Additionally, you can utilize role permissions to restrict which members can add bots or use certain commands. Regular audits of your server’s integration list can help you spot and remove any unwanted apps. Remember, clear communication with your community about allowed apps can prevent issues before they arise. These strategies have worked well in my experience managing Discord servers.
