How it works
1
A ban happens anywhere in the network
When a user is banned on any server running Vision — whether by a moderator, a moderation bot, or Vision’s own detection — the ban is reported to the Vision Insight pool with contextual metadata.
2
The pool assigns a confidence score
Each reported user accumulates a threat score based on the number of independent reports, the source reliability, the ban reasons, and other signals. Higher scores indicate stronger evidence of malicious behavior.
3
The user joins your server
When a flagged user joins a server with Vision Insight enabled, the system checks them against the pool and takes action based on your configured protection mode.
Protection modes
Protect mode is recommended for most servers. It auto-bans only high-confidence threats and alerts you for everything else, giving you full control over borderline cases.
Confidence scoring
Every flagged user in the pool has a confidence score from 0 to 100, reflecting how likely they are to be a genuine threat. The score is calculated from multiple signals:- Number of independent reports — more servers banning the same user increases confidence
- Source reliability — bans from verified high-signal servers carry more weight
- Detection context — bans triggered by automated scam detection score higher than unexplained bans
- Bot intelligence — bans performed by recognized moderation bots contribute signal
Cross-bot intelligence
Vision Insight doesn’t only capture bans from Hashbot. When any moderation bot bans a user on a participating server, Vision Insight detects the ban event and adds it to the pool. This means the network benefits from the enforcement actions of your entire moderation stack.Anti-poisoning safeguards
The Vision Insight pool includes multiple layers of protection against poisoning attacks — where a bad actor might try to mass-report legitimate users to trigger false bans. These safeguards ensure the integrity of the threat pool even at scale.If you believe a user has been incorrectly flagged, use
