Question 1

What is a healthy Discord mod-to-member ratio?

Accepted Answer

For most communities aim for 1 active moderator per 250-400 members. Gaming or NSFW communities should target 1 per 150-200. Below 1 per 800 members and burnout becomes inevitable within 90 days.

Question 2

How do I prevent Discord moderator burnout?

Accepted Answer

Cap individual moderator hours at 12 per week, automate ticket triage, use anti-raid and auto-mod to absorb spam, and maintain at least 6 active mods per 1,000 members. Noxyr's automod alone reduces manual workload by 60-70% on average.
