Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm finding people think the moderation bot can be talked to and that the messages go somewhere useful, like they're forwarded to an admin.

Describe the solution you'd like

Either a canned reply or forwarding the message to a room or a person.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've tried changing the name of the bot to make it clear that it is a bot, but that has not been successful.

Research direction

Start by locating the moderation bot's message-handling entry point and reviewing how it responds to room messages. Clarify whether the intended result is a canned reply or forwarding to an administrator or room, then verify that messages are handled consistently and reach the chosen destination.
