DM Moderation options similar to server moderation
I believe DM's could benefit from some additional filtering options, particularly to help stop spam messages...
In and of itself, allowing direct messages from server members isn't a bad thing, but it is a very basic filter and is relatively heavy handed. Compare that to 5 levels of verification(Moderation) for being able to message a server.
So I would propose that a similar set of verification rules be able to be applied to new DM's -
Allow DM's from Server Members (On/Off)
If On:
- None - Allow anyone to message me
- Low - Verified email on Discord Account
- Medium - Server member for more than.... X..... minutes (adjustable maybe?)
- High - Verified Phone
If Off:
- Low - Force Friend Request
- Medium - Show DM request without showing content, but also provide information about the user (Account age, Common server(s), server membership time, other (?)
- High - Don't allow friend requests / don't show DM requests
From reading others posts, this seems to be an ongoing problem, and may be happening to others more regularly then myself, but seems like a reasonable solution based on currently available settings. Regardless, the end goal is to discourage spam or otherwise unwanted messaging that isn't necessarily explicit media content.
