8. Make sure the bot can has Ban Members, Send Messages, Read Message History in the system messages channel and Send Messages in the admin channel of your choice.
9. Create a docker-compose.yml file, or similar docker run command with the following, and make sure it can access the internet:

    restart_policy:
      condition: 'any'
  environment:
    DISCORD_SERVER_ID: '<server ID of Discord server in question>'
    DISCORD_JOIN_LOG_CHANNEL_ID: '<channel ID that user join logs show up in, should not contain any other messages and should be private>'

  logging:
    driver: 'json-file'
    options:
      max-size: '5m'
  user: 'root'

10. Run the docker container.
11. When you see a large number of people join in a row, send the following message to the channel: ban <message ID> <message ID> where message id is the id of the first and last message in the system messages channel that contains the joins you want to ban.
12. The bot will send a message to the channel confirming your intent.
13. React to the bot's message with a 👍
14. Watch the bot ban all of the new joiners.

It is recommended to use this bot along with the 10 minute delay for new members, as this gives you time to react to the raid before they can start DMing people.
