Frequently asked questions
Everything you might want to know before you add Nighthawk.
Getting started
What is Nighthawk?
Nighthawk is a free moderation bot and web dashboard for Fluxer communities. Cases, automod, machine-learning anti-raid, a verification gate, ban appeals, tickets, logging and role permissions all live in one place. It is not related to the routers, trading bots or other products that share the name.
What is Fluxer?
Fluxer is a free, open-source chat platform for communities, with text, voice and video. Nighthawk is a bot built for it: you add it to a Fluxer community and manage everything from the Nighthawk dashboard.
Is Nighthawk free to use?
Yes. Moderation, automod, logging, appeals and the full dashboard are free for every community. DeepIntel is an optional add-on that buys more AI moderation volume and image scanning, and nothing else.
How do I add Nighthawk to my community?
Add it in a couple of clicks, then configure everything visually from the dashboard. There are no config files and no IDs to copy and paste.
Can my whole team help moderate?
Yes. Map your existing roles to permission groups so each moderator gets exactly the access you grant, from full admin down to a single dashboard section.
Does it do more than punish?
Plenty: reaction roles, welcome messages, reusable message templates, adaptive slowmode that responds to chat speed, and a security health check that scores your community's setup and fixes common gaps in one click.
Privacy and encryption
Are appeal messages really end-to-end encrypted?
Yes. When your community publishes its encryption key, an appeal is encrypted in the submitter's browser before it is sent. Only your team's key can read it, so Nighthawk's servers and database only ever store ciphertext.
What else does Nighthawk encrypt?
Case reasons, saved and deleted message content, incident replays, automod matches, audit details and username history are stored as ciphertext in the database and only unscrambled when your team looks at them. Watchlist reports stay readable by design, because they are shared across communities.
What is the Watchlist?
A shared ban network across Nighthawk communities. Opted-in communities report users banned for serious offences, reports build a weighted confidence level, and your community can alert, kick or ban when a flagged user joins. Sharing never reveals your community's name.
What if someone ends up on the Watchlist by mistake?
They can file a dispute from the public dispute page, and the Nighthawk team reviews every one. False entries are struck from the network, and dispute contents are end-to-end encrypted while they are reviewed.
Protection
How does Machine Learning Anti-Raid protect my community?
Unlike legacy bots that rely on static join counters that raiders easily bypass, Nighthawk uses real-time Machine Learning to analyze join waves and account patterns as they arrive. If a coordinated attack or malicious wave is detected, Nighthawk neutralizes the entire cluster in seconds, escalates your community's defenses, and alerts your staff.
What does the verification gate stop?
Bulk-registered and scripted accounts, before they ever reach a channel. Every new member is held on a role you choose and only gets your welcome roles once they pass a captcha link, a reaction panel, a text code or an image code. Codes are answered in DMs so wrong guesses never land in your community, and anyone who never finishes is kicked on a timer you set.
Does the captcha need my members to sign in anywhere?
No. Nighthawk DMs a one-time link, and the fact that it arrived in that member's DMs is already proof of whose account it is. The page also sees the visitor's IP address, which the bot never gets, so VPN, proxy and datacentre connections are turned away before the captcha even loads.
