🚩 Reports & Vote Ban
Reports and Vote Ban put your community's eyes to work. Reports let any member flag a message for admin review, with optional automatic action once enough members agree. Vote Ban goes a step further, letting the community itself vote to remove a problematic member.
Overview
- Members report a message with
/reportor right-click → Apps → Report Message - Admins get a review embed with one-click Ban, Delete, and Ignore actions
- A report threshold can trigger automatic action once enough unique members report
- Vote Ban posts a public vote with Ban and Save buttons, with configurable thresholds, windows, and immunity
Configuration
To configure both systems:
- Open your workspace in the Fren One webapp.
- In the sidebar under Channels, select the Discord server you want to configure. Its pages open beneath it.
- Select Moderation, then the Reports tab or the Vote Ban tab.
Reports and Vote Ban are separate tabs, each with its own master toggle and save.

How it works in Discord
Reporting: a member right-clicks a message → Apps → Report Message, or uses /report with the message link. Admins then receive the review embed (in the report channel, by DM, or in the message's channel) with four buttons: Ban + Delete Msg, Ban + Purge 7d, Delete Message, and Ignore. If the same message collects the configured number of reports from unique reporters, the automatic action fires on top.
Vote Ban: a member starts a session via right-click → Apps → Vote Ban, or /voteban with a message link. The agent posts a public vote message with Ban and Save buttons. If ban votes reach Votes needed within the window, the action runs; if saves reach Saves needed first, the session is cancelled.
Saving your changes
Each tab uses a batched save: edits stay local until you select Save in the bar that appears at the bottom of the page. Leaving the page with unsaved changes shows a warning first.
Best practices
- Use a dedicated, admin-only report channel so review embeds (and their one-click ban buttons) aren't public.
- Keep Action on Report Threshold at Warn or notify-only until you trust the signal: reports can be weaponized in disputes.
- Leave the save vote on and keep Immune roles covering admins and trusted members so vote bans can't hit your own team.
- A vote Cooldown stops one member from spam-starting sessions against everyone they argue with.
The review embed's Ban + Delete Msg and Ban + Purge 7d buttons act immediately. Route review notifications somewhere only trusted admins can see.
Troubleshooting
Nobody receives review notifications?
- With A dedicated channel selected, a Report channel must be set and the agent must be able to post there.
- With DM specific roles and no roles selected, the review goes to the server owner's DMs: check there.
A vote ban ended without any action?
- The session may have hit Saves needed counter-votes, or the Vote window expired before Votes needed was reached.
- The target may hold an Immune role.
Members can't start a vote?
- Check "Who can start and cast votes" and the per-member Cooldown between sessions.
