Mod Text

Epsilon Rose

Certain forums have it set up so when a mod posts with their authority as a mod, to take an action, they can surround their text with a special banner and icon, to make sure people notice the post and to make it clear exactly what has happened. Here's a good example of it in use:

A similar function would be helpful in Discord, particularly with how easily a wall of messages can blend together and chat's ability to move quickly.

    I think that permission would be missused to give it "special" users. There is already a feature called pinned messages for mods/admins. I know there are some bots used to created an embed out of a "mod text", thats a nice workaround instead of giving users something like custom embeds.

    A pin doesn't really serve the same purpose. It's more about making something easily accessible in the future, rather than very visible right now.

    As for abuse, I'm not sure how much that's really an issue. On one hand, just about any permission, or the roles feature, could be abused in that way. On the other hand, is it really a bad thing if a server decides to use them as a special text for special people, instead of restricting it to mod activity? That seems more like a server culture preference than an actual problem.
