# Thresholds and categories

Review vs action scores, switching categories off, and what always stays on.

/settings has a toggle and thresholds for each category. The review threshold sends borderline hits to your log. The action threshold deletes and adds strikes.

## Too many flags

Nudge the thresholds up a little, or allowlist phrases your server uses all the time. Check the overturn rate after each change so you know it helped.

## Too quiet

Bring the thresholds down, or add known bad lines to the blocklist so they're deleted instantly.

## Cannot disable

Child safety and the wellbeing check always run on scored messages. The category toggles don't touch them.
