5. Auto-Moderation

ARES’s auto-moderation feature monitors messages in your server for inappropriate or flagged content.

How can you opt out of auto-moderation?

You cannot opt out of auto-moderation if it is enabled by the server administrators. However, administrators can whitelist specific channels to exclude them from monitoring.

Message Privacy: ARES does not store or redistribute any messages monitored through auto-moderation. Flagged messages are deleted immediately as per the rules set by server administrators.
