2K Service Plug
A full AI-moderated Discord marketplace for NBA 2K grinding services. Ticket-based order system, grinder economy with strike management, middleman escrow for trades, automated vouches, VIP tiers, and a 13-role permission hierarchy, all running through custom bots I built from scratch.

The Problem
NBA 2K rep grinding, badge leveling, and account sales are a real market, but the existing Discord servers handling it were chaos. Scams, untracked orders, no accountability for grinders, no protection for buyers, and moderation that couldn't keep up.
David needed a server that operated like an actual business, with automated order flows, verified sellers, escrow protection, performance-tracked grinders, and AI moderation that understood context, not just matching keywords.

What I Built
6 interconnected bot systems.
01
AI Moderation Bot
Context-aware moderation that handles ad detection, spam filtering, payment info scrubbing, and impersonation detection. Not keyword matching. The bot reads intent and applies escalation rules automatically.
02
Ticket & Order System
Customers click a service panel, a private ticket channel opens, pricing is calculated, payment is confirmed, a grinder is assigned, and the order moves through tracked stages. Fully automated lifecycle.
03
Grinder Management
Strike system with weighted severity (Minor 1pt, Major 2pt, Critical 3pt). Auto-suspension at threshold. Performance tracking, payout management, and conduct monitoring, all through the bot.
04
Trust & Verification
Verified Sellers require valid ID. VIP tiers (Bronze → Platinum) based on lifetime spending. Vouches auto-posted after order completion. All middleman trades logged with escrow protection.
05
Role Hierarchy Engine
13+ roles from Owner to Customer, each with scoped permissions. Custom icons, colors, and channel visibility rules. Grinder, Creator, Verified Seller, and Middleman roles include application workflows.
06
Multi-Channel Architecture
30+ channels organized into Info, General, Services, Tickets, Paid Orders, Archive, and Staff categories. Each with purpose-specific permissions. Channel redirection and cross-linking built into the bot.

Why This Matters
This isn't a bot I bought from a marketplace and configured. Every system, the ticket engine, the grinder strike tracker, the middleman escrow flow, the AI moderation layer, the VIP tier calculator, the vouch pipeline, was designed and coded from scratch for this specific use case.
The server runs 24/7 as a real business. Real money flows through it. Real customers depend on the order tracking. Real grinders get paid based on the payout system. The moderation bot catches scams that keyword filters would miss entirely.
This is the same caliber of Discord bot work I've done across 10+ servers, including communities for Gilbert Arenas and Jeremy Lin (NBA 2K League). The 2K Service Plug is the most complete example of what I build when I have full control of the architecture.
