"Likely Spammer" feedback

Build_Bot

I greatly appreciate Discord's flagging of accounts it deems suspicious, or spammy in this case. However, as a moderator, it makes it significantly harder to moderate content, especially as there does not appear to be any global button to acknowledge that they're a likely spammer, and disable having to click every single one of their messages to read them. It's certainly a useful idea, but in its current state I think it could be implemented better.

 

This may not be feasible due to privacy (both of users and Discord's systems) but a semi-detailed explanation on why users are flagged as likely spammers would also be helpful (hitting ratelimits, spamming DMs, high number of x in a short amount of time, etc.), as otherwise it's merely a vague warning that this user might not be trustworthy (which should be the default response when interacting with any unknown user over the Internet, but I digress).

 

Secondly, it should be possible to acknowledge this warning and have this information displayed in a much less intrusive way. It appears to be nearly identically implemented blocking, but unlike blocking, there does not appear to be any way to disable it, and be able to read the user's messages without having to click on them every time - or even just a way to open/show all these messages by default.

A simple user context menu toggle that lets you default-show messages from these "likely spammer[s]" would be perfect for solving this second issue.

    Hey, Sir. I met this problem. Is there any way to remove this "likely spammer"? I am a normal user and booked nitro for 1 year. also boosted 3 communities, but I regarded as a spammer. I am so sad...

    Highly agree. I'm currently dealing with an influx of scambots set up to look like Discord staff, and have nearly missed join messages from them and other spam bots due to Discord seeing fit to gray out and hide their messages. I appreciate the flagging, but why are the messages hidden from moderators of all people? You have to open the messages to click their profile to ban them anyway, so what's the point?

    There are several accounts of people I know that are tagged as "Likely spammer" which are not. How can we confirm they are not, remove this warning, it is annoying for them, but annoying for the whole community on several servers!

    Ditto. I'm an old fella who barely says 'boo' and I've been 'tagged' as a 'likely spammer'. I haven't eaten meat out of a tin since 1973, so it's pretty damned unlikely that I'd ever have anything to do with 'spam'.

    I have a brand new user who is an older person and it's quite unfriendly and discouraging to have all of their comments marked as 'likely spammer'. Please can we have something that lets us approve or ban people after mods examine their content?
