# Message Logging

Purple's comprehensive message logging system provides your staff team with the information they need to make decisions and take action to protect your server.

Purple also logs the tag of the moderator who deleted a message, keeping your staff team accountable and providing you with the information you need to review their performance!

Want to keep certain channels private from your staff? Visit our [commands](/purple-documentation/options/commands.md) documentation to learn how to disable message event logging in specific channels!
