# Check nicknames only against the nickname blocklist

_If you don't want to verify user nicknames through regular premoderation system, based on blocklists, and want them to be checked just through the special Nickname block list, activate this toggle._

Find and update the Nickname block list in [Pre-Moderation > Nickname Blocklist](https://chatadmin.watchers.io/name-blocklist), and[ read more about our pre-moderation system](https://docs.watchers.io/docs/automated-pre-moderation-layer-1).
