title: "Coordinated Raids, Mass Spam & Link Bombing"
description: "Tactical protocols against automated raids, message flood scripts, corrupted Zalgo text, and mass mention disruption."
---

## Directive Objective
Protect server availability, readability, and communication integrity against coordinated mass invasions (raids), script flooding, and disruptive spam bombardments.

---

## 1. Scope and Policy Coverage
This directive regulates technical and social sabotage:
- **Coordinated Raids**: Invasions organized by external servers, raiding discords, or botnets entering simultaneously to overwhelm channels.
- **Mass Mention Attacks**: Abuse of `@everyone`, `@here`, or mass role pings to disrupt thousands of members.
- **Corrupted Text & Glitch Characters**: Spreading excessive Unicode diacritic marks (Zalgo text) designed to crash Discord client UI renders or freeze mobile devices.
- **Voice Channel Flooding**: Joining voice channels with soundboards or mic-spam bots to scream, play ear-rape audio, or disrupt voice sessions.

---

## 2. Exclusion Boundaries and Scope Limits
- **Organic Influx Spikes**: Sudden surges in community membership caused by a legitimate streamer, YouTuber, or partner server shouting out the server invite link.
- **Excited Celebration**: Benign rapid chat typing during high-energy server events or live gaming milestones without malicious disruptive intent.

## 3. Emergency DEFCON Protocol
1. **Pause Invites**: Under *Server Settings > Safety Setup*, immediately pause all active invites.
2. **Lock Down Public Channels**: Switch `@everyone` permission for `Send Messages` to `False` on general channels.
3. **Execute Bulk Purge**: Use moderation bots (e.g., Sapphire, Wick) to run `/cleanup` or `/purge` on messages sent during the raid window.
4. **Quarantine Raiding Accounts**: Apply a Quarantine role or issue bulk bans via bot raid-mode commands.
