Suggested Channels & Roles
Why CleanerBot fits this use case
Creators need to protect their paying supporters. CleanerBot's "Exempt Roles" feature ensures your Patrons and Subs are never touched, while keeping the rest of the server tidy.
Protect supporters while keeping rooms active
Creator communities often mix paying supporters with casual followers. The goal is to clean the edges without touching the core. This CleanerBot preset keeps creator community cleanup focused on protecting supporters first.
The creator preset keeps a generous timeline because supporter relationships are sensitive. This aligns with the target group analysis: expectations are emotional, and fairness plus clarity matters more than squeezing every inactive account out quickly.
Use exemptions for your supporter tiers and moderation team. Then let the default timeline focus on the wider member base. This keeps the policy strict where it is safe and cautious where mistakes would be costly.
Low-drama setup
- Explain the timeline in your rules channel.
- Point warnings to one easy recovery action.
- Review with a mod checklist, not vibes.
Engagement leverage
- Weekly polls can double as check-ins.
- Reward roles highlight consistent fans.
- Longer timelines reduce false alarms.

Common Questions
Can I protect my Patrons?
Absolutely. Add your Patreon/Twitch Sub roles to the exemption list in /config and they will never decay.
Do engagement roles ping?
You can choose. By default, reward announcements are public but don't ping @everyone. You can turn them off completely if you prefer quiet rewards.
Is the "I'm active" button enough?
Yes. If a lurker just wants to stay without chatting, clicking the button on the warning message resets their score completely.
Can I protect limited-drop roles?
Yes. Add any limited or event-based supporter roles to exemptions, then use activity rewards for non-paying community roles so you do not mix monetization with cleanup.
What is the best channel for warnings?
Use a low-noise updates or announcements channel where supporters already expect bot posts. If you want a template for the wording, start with the inactivity policy template.
How should I handle comeback streams or events?
Pause enforcement during planned breaks and resume after your first event back. This keeps creator community cleanup aligned with your content cadence rather than punishing quiet periods you announced in advance.
Invite CleanerBot, run /start, and publish a short, transparent inactivity policy in your rules channel.
