The global blacklist is an optional, shared signal: a Discord account that has been permanently banned through Thea by three different human moderators across three different participating servers within 90 days. Your server decides whether to use that signal, and how strongly. This page is for server staff. If your own account was listed, see Why your account is blacklisted.
This setting appears under Settings → AutoMod → Global blacklist when Thea has enabled it for your server. It is a canary feature: if you do not see the card, it is not available on this install yet.

​
How a listing is created

An account is listed only when all of these are true:
  • Each contributing server has opted in to the global blacklist.
  • Each ban is permanent.
  • Each ban was explicitly authorized through Thea by a human moderator — either with the moderator ban command or the Ban action in an identity review.
  • The ban was that server’s own decision, not a follow-on from an existing listing.
  • The three bans happened in the last 90 days, came from different servers, and were authorized by different Discord moderator accounts.
Timeouts, kicks, temporary bans, softbans, automatic AutoMod or raid bans, native Discord bans, bans from another bot, and bans caused by the blacklist itself do not count. One moderator banning the same account through several participating servers still contributes only one independent moderator. Participating servers never see which other servers contributed, and they never see another server’s ban reasons.

​
Modes

Review mode needs an AutoMod log channel. Without one, Thea cannot present the decision buttons. If Thea lacks Ban Members (or Moderate Members for the review timeout), it logs the failed action and alerts your staff instead of pretending it succeeded.

​
Turning the feature off

Switching to Off:
  • Withdraws this server’s signals from the shared list.
  • Reverses only restrictions Thea can prove this feature created (for example, a timeout or ban it applied because of a listing).
  • Never lifts a ban a moderator issued themselves.

​
Privacy

  • Other servers never learn your server identity from a signal you contributed.
  • Other participating servers never learn which moderator authorized a signal.
  • Members who are listed receive a BL- reference and a private appeal link from Thea, not from your server.
  • Appeals go to Thea trust and safety, not to your moderators.
