Valid invite joins are being treated like abusive account activity.
The enforcement path protects server safety, while legitimate newcomers need to enter without an appeal.
Who you’d be doing this for
“I spent half my evening telling real players their warning was a mistake.”

What is at stake
Valid invite joins are producing a 4.8% false-positive enforcement rate. You must weigh faster legitimate access against preserving detection of abusive accounts.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- legitimate entry vs. abusive-account detection
- appeal relief vs. enforcement consistency
- model quality vs. real-time latency
- workflow containment vs. root-cause correction
Why Discord
Discord server communities depend on new members joining safely without asking moderators to reverse automated actions.
