Public Moderation Log

The Public Moderation Log gives everyone a transparent view of the actions the moderation team takes. Any member can read it.

Accessing the Log

Open the log at /mod/public-log.

What the Log Shows

Each entry includes:

  • Date and time of the action.
  • Action type (see the list below).
  • Target — the thread, post, or member affected (linked when applicable).
  • Moderator who performed the action (shown by username).

Actions Logged

The public log shows the moderation actions that affect the community in a visible way:

Action Description
Thread Locked A thread was closed to new replies
Thread Unlocked A locked thread was reopened
Thread Moved A thread was moved to a different forum
Post Pinned A post was pinned to the top of its thread
Post Unpinned A pinned post was unpinned
Post Deleted A reply was removed
Post Restored A removed reply was restored
Staff Pick A thread was recommended as a staff pick
User Banned A member was banned from the community
User Unbanned A ban was lifted
User Shadow-Banned A member's content was hidden from others
User Suspended A member was temporarily suspended
Category Ban A member was barred from a category
Category Unban A category ban was lifted

Filtering the Log

You can narrow the log to a single forum or category:

  • Forum — show only actions taken in one forum.
  • Category — show only actions in one category.

What the Log Does Not Show

To protect privacy, the log leaves out:

  • Private modmail conversations.
  • Internal moderator notes.
  • IP addresses and other personal information.
  • The content of removed posts (only that a post was removed).

Purpose

The log exists to keep the community's trust. You can see that the rules are applied consistently. If you have a question about a logged action, use modmail to ask the moderation team.
