Commands
ban
Ban a user from the server. Works on members in the server and users outside of it (by ID).
Aliases: b
Permission: Ban Members
Cooldown: 2 seconds
Flags:
--duration <time>— Temporary ban. The user is automatically unbanned after the duration (e.g.,7d,12h,1w).--silent— Do not DM the user about the ban.--purge <days>— Delete the user's messages from the past N days (1-7).
Examples:
You can ban users who are not in the server by using their user ID. This is useful for preemptive bans.
kick
Kick a member from the server. They can rejoin with a new invite.
Aliases: k
Permission: Kick Members
Cooldown: 2 seconds
Examples:
mute
Assign the server's configured mute role to a member. Optionally set a duration for auto-unmute.
Aliases: m
Permission: Manage Roles
Cooldown: 2 seconds
Examples:
A mute role must be configured before using this command. The mute role is a server role that denies Send Messages in all channels. Use the dashboard or .settings muterole @Role to configure it.
unmute
Remove the mute role from a member.
Aliases: um
Permission: Manage Roles
Cooldown: 2 seconds
Examples:
timeout
Apply a Discord native timeout to a member. Timed out members cannot send messages, react, or join voice channels.
Aliases: to, muzzle
Permission: Moderate Members
Cooldown: 2 seconds
The duration is required and cannot exceed 28 days (Discord's limit).

Aliases: uj

Aliases: w
Permission: Moderate Members
Cooldown: 2 seconds
Examples:
Warnings are visible in a member's moderation history (.history @user). A pattern of warnings can justify escalation to mutes or bans.
clearwarns
Clear all active warnings for a member.

Unban a user from the server. Requires the user's ID since banned users are not in the server.

history
View a user's moderation history (all recorded cases: bans, kicks, mutes, warns, timeouts, etc.).
Aliases: h, cases, modlog
Permission: Moderate Members
Cooldown: 3 seconds
Examples:
Silent Mode
Most moderation commands support the --silent flag. When used, the bot will not send a DM to the affected user about the action. This is useful when you want to take action discreetly.
Hierarchy Checks
Slipz enforces role hierarchy for all moderation actions:
- You cannot moderate someone with a role equal to or higher than your highest role.
- The bot cannot moderate someone with a role equal to or higher than the bot's highest role.
- You cannot moderate the server owner.
- You cannot moderate yourself.
