Obelisk Automod
Filters for spam messages, mention spam, invite links, malicious and NSFW links, a word blacklist and a link blacklist.
Each filter has its own action: none, timeout, mute, kick, ban or soft-ban, plus a duration where it applies. Unless noted, the default action is a 10-minute timeout.
