Member Verification

Member Verification puts a Verify button in front of your server. Most members get your verified role straight away; brand new and suspicious accounts are held for a quick staff check. Nobody is ever kicked or banned automatically.

Setting up

1. Create the role verified members should get, and make sure Rallyra's own role sits above it in your server's role list. Rallyra needs the Manage Roles permission.

   Every verified member gets this role, so it must not carry staff permissions (for example Administrator, Manage Server, Manage Roles, Manage Channels, Manage Messages, Kick or Ban Members, Timeout Members, or Mention Everyone). Rallyra refuses to give a role like that, and /verification setup and /verification panel tell you which permissions to remove.

2. Run /verification setup and pick the verified role. Optionally choose a review channel, a minimum account age (7 days by default, 0 turns it off), and strict mode. This also switches Verification on.

3. In the channel new members see first, run /verification panel to post the Verify button.

You can change the same settings later on the dashboard's Verification page.

What happens when a member presses Verify

• Most members get the verified role at once.
• Accounts younger than your minimum age are held. With strict mode on, members with two or more smaller warning signs (for example no profile picture) are held too.
• A held member is only told that staff will take a quick look. They are never told why.
• A review card goes to your review channel (or your staff log channel) with Approve and Decline buttons and the reasons in plain words. Approve gives the role. Decline gives no role and changes nothing else.

Pressing Verify again does not re-roll the result.

Pro: the web verify page

The Discord checks can't catch an older alt account that has a profile picture. Pro servers can turn on Web verify page on the Verification page to catch those too.

• A new member who presses Verify gets a personal link (it expires after 15 minutes) to a short Rallyra page.
• After they agree, it compares their device and network with the other members of your server only. An account on the same device and the same network as another member, or using automation tools, is held for staff review. The review card names the matching account.
• Members who close the page are not verified and nothing is collected. Members who already verified, or were already reviewed, keep the normal Discord check.
• No cookies, no IP addresses, and no readable device details are stored. Only scrambled codes are kept, and they are deleted after 90 days. The privacy policy has the details.

The Verification page

The dashboard's Verification page lists held members so staff can approve or decline them there too, and holds all the settings.

Re-check a member

Staff can send any member back to verify again: press Re-check next to them on the Verification page, or run /verification recheck. Their verified role comes off straight away (or within a couple of minutes from the dashboard), and they press Verify to be checked afresh. Use it when you approved someone by mistake or want a member to go through the web check.

Lock your channels

The verified role only keeps people out if your channels need it. Deny View Channel for @everyone and allow it for the verified role, except in the channel with the Verify button. /verification setup and /verification panel list any channels that members who have not verified can still see.

Giveaways for verified members only

On the Verification page, turn on Giveaways are for verified members only. Members who have not verified are asked to verify first when they press Enter on a giveaway. See Giveaways.

Rewards for verified members only

Turn on Trivia and game rewards are for verified members only on the Verification page (or rewards_verified_only in /verification setup). Scores and leaderboards don't change; members who have not verified are just left out of the payout. This includes Trivia payouts, Trivia League night payouts, game completion rewards, and Academy course rewards.

At a glance

The top of the Verification page shows the last 7 days: how many members were verified, are waiting for review, were declined, and how many the web verify page caught as likely alts.

Privacy

Accounts are only ever compared with other accounts in your own server. Rallyra never links people across servers, and verification never moves points.

Plans

The Verify button and Discord checks are on every plan. The web verify page needs Pro. See pricing.
