What is a MEE6 bot?

The MEE6 chat and moderation bot is one of the most popular and useful Discord bots for servers and communities. Users can manage numerous server functions and create rules for visitors and spam to keep their Discord server clear and safe. The bot is particularly handy if your Discord server has many different channels making it harder to keep an overview of visitor traffic. With MEE6, you can set up commands, assign levels to members depending on their participation, or inform them of upcoming events. MEE6 is popular because of its versatile music functions for playing and saving songs and playlists.

What functions does MEE6 provide?

Many MEE6 plugin functions are available free of charge and can be used immediately after adding the bot. Some functions, on the other hand, are only available through a paid subscription. Generally, the free version covers the most important moderator features that the majority of Discord users need.

Among the free MEE6 features are:

  • Custom Commands: Create custom bot commands to assign different roles to members and send automatic messages or announcements.
  • Levels: Members of your Discord server can reach levels that can be publicly presented or rewarded depending on their user behaviour.
  • Music: Using various bot commands, users can play music, skip songs, create playlists, or vote up songs.
  • Welcome: MEE6 automatically greets new members with a special message.
  • Moderation: Automated moderation features filter spam and profanities, and remove or ban users who violate rules.
  • Record: Users can record and play back voice recordings.
  • Search Anything: The search function lets users find terms, videos, or files on other platforms or search engines.
  • Help: In case of questions and problems, users can resort to the help function.
