# Moderation Overview

> A complete toolkit for managing your Discord server's members and channels.

## Overview

pom provides a comprehensive set of moderation tools that cover every aspect of server management — from banning disruptive members to cleaning up channels and managing roles. All moderation commands include hierarchy checks to prevent misuse, and most log the responsible moderator for accountability.

<Info>
  pom enforces a **role hierarchy** on all moderation commands. You can only moderate members whose highest role is below yours. You cannot moderate the server owner, and you cannot moderate yourself.
