modbot

Maybe to help others.... today I setup @modbot in /purple to use our Purple NFT as the Channel Membership. But then I kicked everyone out of the channel because they were just auto-assigned to the channel and I wanted to make sure only Purple members were in the channels. 

Well it turns out, kicking someone out of the channel bans them, so I actually banned most of our membership! Big thanks to @haole who helped us unban everyone and now its working correctly. 

tldr; don't be me! If you remove someone from a channel modbot sees that as a ban (makes sense in retrospect)

If channel moderators remove someone, it means they are banned from the channel.

You can check the banned list using this API:
https://api.warpcast.com/fc/channel-banned-users?channelId=purple

ModBot frames follow the ban list, preventing banned users from rejoining.

I'm going to making ban list check configurable, so you can turn it on or off as needed.

For most channels, it's best to leave the check on(default). 
If you want a banned member come back, you can always invite them manually.

/wac I removed as a mod for the moment. I have @notabot as well

That's good to know. Adding it back as mod now. I was just one of those who was stuck in the purple issue so 😂 I dont want others to be banned too.

if you have same rules as notabot, that's fine.

If you don't want to use modbot, you can remove it from your channel.
