πŸš€ July update β€” a whole batch of new features

We've shipped a lot since the Games launch. Here's everything new.

πŸŽ™οΈ Temporary Voice Channels

Pick a voice channel as a "join to create" hub. Whenever a member joins it, YAWBDB creates a personal voice room for them under the category you choose, moves them in, and makes them the owner. When the room empties, it's deleted automatically.

Owners manage their room with /voice:

  • rename, limit (user cap), lock / unlock, kick a member, and claim a room whose owner has left.

Configure the hub, category, name template, default user limit and default lock state from the new Temporary Voice feature page. A Server Logs toggle keeps the automatic create/delete noise out of your logs by default.

⌨️ Custom Commands

Create your own slash commands per server β€” no coding required.

  • Simple mode β€” the bot replies with a text message or a rich embed (title, description, color, image, thumbnail, footer). Restrict a command to roles, add a per-user cooldown, and make the reply private.
  • Advanced mode β€” switch a command to a visual node graph (the same editor as Leveling rewards). Chain conditions (roles, booster status, level, account/server age, time windows…), logic (AND/OR/NOT, random, delay, cooldown) and actions: reply with dynamic variables like {username} and {level}, assign/remove roles, grant XP, send a DM, post to a channel, and more. Put different replies on different branches β€” a special answer for boosters, a random pick between several, whatever you like.

Everything is built and deployed from the panel; commands register on your server automatically.

πŸ€– Smarter AI replies

Two upgrades to AI Responses and Random Bot Interactions:

  • Reply context β€” when a member uses Discord's reply feature, the AI now sees which message they're answering (with a short quote if it's older than the recent history), so it follows the conversation instead of reacting to one isolated line.
  • Knows when to stay quiet β€” the AI can now choose not to reply when a message doesn't call for one (a private exchange, or a moment where a simple emoji reaction fits better). Less noise, more natural.

🟩 Wordle upgrades

  • Live-progress embed β€” an optional public grid fills up spoiler-free while a member plays, just like the official Wordle.
  • Richer daily recap β€” the recap can attach a generated collage of everyone's grids, and a reset reminder can announce the new word (optionally pinging yesterday's top players so nobody breaks a streak).
  • Practice mode β€” /wordle practice gives unlimited random games that don't touch your stats, streak or XP. Toggle it per server.
  • Bigger dictionary β€” a much larger accepted-words list for your guesses.

πŸ›‘οΈ Automod: Anti-Scam & Anti-Poll

Two new rule types:

  • Anti-Scam β€” a built-in, curated list catching fake-Nitro / gift / crypto-drainer scams and lookalike domains, extendable with your own patterns.
  • Anti-Poll β€” remove native Discord polls posted outside the channels you allow.

Both support the usual actions: delete, warn, mute, kick, ban, or flag for review.

βš–οΈ Appeals auto-close

Sanction appeals can now close automatically when their window expires, with a closing message you customize. The user is notified, and your moderators can reopen a closed appeal at any time.

πŸ“Š Games analytics

Server Insights has a new Games tab (shown when the Games feature is enabled):

  • A global overview β€” total games played, solve rate, unique players, and games played in the last 7 days.
  • Per-game detail β€” for Wordle: solved vs. total, solve rate, average attempts, unique players, a games-per-day chart, and the attempts distribution (1–6).
