Only verified communities can use Barricade. Visit the Server Hosting Discord to register your community.

Setting up your community

Prerequisites

Before setting up your community to receive reports, make sure you have the following;

• You are the owner of a registered community. You can register in the Server Hosting Discord.
• You have Manage Server rights on the Discord server you want to receive reports in.

Steps

1. Invite HLL Barricade to your Discord server.

   Use this link to invite the Discord bot. Allow it all the requested permissions. Barricade won't be able to operate properly without them.

2. Configure which channel reports need to be sent to.

   Use the /config reports-channel command in your Discord server to assign a text channel. Make sure that it is a private channel.

3. Configure which role can review reports.

   Use the /config admin-role command in your Discord server to assign a role. Typically this is your admin role.

4. Link up your admin tools.

   Use the /config integrations command, then press the Add integration... button. Select the type of admin tool you're trying to integrate and fill in the required details.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Note

The main FAQ has been moved to the wiki.

I have been banned! What now?

If you have been banned as a result of a Barricade report (which the message should clearly state), it means a community has put forward evidence against you. The admins of the server you just tried to join have reviewed this evidence and decided to ban you. This means you are likely to be banned from multiple servers, and not just this one you tried to join.

When appealing your ban, you should first reach out to the community that created the original report. If they accept your appeal, they can revoke the report and get all subsequent bans from the other servers removed.

That being said, you can still reach out to each individual community. While they cannot remove your ban from other servers, if enough communities unban you, the report can also be revoked that way.

Who reviews reports?

When a report is made, each community individually decides whether to ban the player or not. Players are never banned on your server without manual approval from your own admins. Do note that when a report is revoked, all subsequent bans will automatically be revoked - without requiring approval.
