Anti Checks Overview
Anti Checks are Lockie's automated protection modules. They help staff reduce spam, scam links, doxxing, NSFW content, and other risky activity before it spreads through the server.
Available modules
The exact modules can vary by version, but Lockie commonly includes:
| Module | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Anti-Spam | Reduces floods, repeated messages, mention spam, and disruptive posting patterns. |
| Anti-Scam | Helps catch suspicious links, phishing attempts, and scam-like message patterns. |
| Anti-Dox | Helps reduce the risk of sensitive personal information being posted. |
| Anti-NSFW | Helps catch unwanted NSFW or unsafe image/message content when available. |
How Anti Checks work
Most Anti Check modules follow the same flow:
- A message or event is checked.
- Lockie compares it to your enabled module settings.
- Whitelists, blacklists, safe channels, and exempt roles are applied.
- Lockie takes the configured action.
- A protection log is posted for staff review.
Common actions
Depending on the module and version, actions may include:
- Log only
- Delete message
- Timeout
- Kick
- Ban
- Ignore exempt users or channels
Start with lower actions while tuning. After you are confident the module behaves correctly, you can increase the action severity.
Whitelists and blacklists
Whitelists are for trusted entries. Blacklists are for blocked entries.
For standard servers, Anti-Scam and Anti-Dox controls usually have these limits:
| Control | Whitelist limit | Blacklist limit |
|---|---|---|
| Anti-Scam | 15 entries | 15 entries |
| Anti-Dox | 15 entries | 15 entries |
Premium may unlock higher limits, unlimited checks, or extra controls depending on the plan.
New account action controls
Some stronger automated actions can be limited to new accounts.
This is useful during raids because you can make kick or ban actions apply only when the detected account is newer than your configured threshold.
Common controls include:
- Only kick new accounts
- Only ban new accounts
- Kick new account days
- Ban new account days
The maximum threshold is 14 days.
See New Account Controls.
