Unlike standard name filters or regex patterns, Multi-Join Protection detects clusters of users who join your server with similar usernames in a short time window. It functions as a specialized anti-raid system focused on impersonation patterns.
When multiple new members join within minutes of each other — and their usernames resemble one another — Hashbot flags the group and takes action based on your configured punishment (ban, timeout, or delete).
We recommend enabling Multi-Join Protection on all servers — especially those vulnerable to coordinated impersonation attacks.To confirm whether it’s active or to adjust settings, run: /settings status
