What it does
How many times a member broke one of your rules in the window, without adding one. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Protection in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep the server safe: how many times a member broke one of your rules in the window, without adding one.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
