Frequently Asked Questions

Does Valor Shield affect server performance?

No, Valor Shield is designed to have minimal impact on server performance. All heavy processing is done on our cloud servers, not yours.

Can I use one license on multiple servers?

Each license is tied to one server (Guild ID). You'll need separate licenses for additional servers.

What happens if I get a false positive?

Players can submit ban appeals through your dashboard. You can also configure detection sensitivity and whitelist specific actions.

How do I transfer my license to a new server?

You can reset your Guild ID lock up to 3 times per month from your dashboard settings.
