Active Channels

Active channels are where members earn credits. The bot only tracks messages and fires rewards in channels you've added to this list.

Limiting rewards to specific channels keeps the economy focused on real conversation — bot command spam and announcement channels shouldn't be earning people credits.

Commands​

/active-channels view           — list all active channels (no permission required)
/active-channels add #channel   — add a channel
/active-channels remove #channel — remove a channel

Limits:

  • Free: up to 10 active channels
  • Premium: unlimited

What Happens in an Active Channel​

When a member sends a message:

  1. The bot checks if the user is blacklisted or opted out
  2. If eligible, the bot rolls for rewards based on your drop rates:
  3. Daily credits are counted toward the member's daily cap

Quests that involve sending messages also only count messages in active channels.

Bot Permissions Required​

The bot needs View Channel, Read Message History, and Send Messages in each active channel. The bot checks for these permissions when you run /active-channels add and will notify you if they're missing.

Choosing Channels​

Add channels where you want to reward genuine conversation — typically general chat, off-topic, or topic-specific discussion channels.

Avoid adding:

  • Bot command channels (people spam commands, not conversation)
  • Staff-only channels
  • Announcement channels (one-way traffic)

Start with one or two channels and expand as you get a feel for the rewards frequency.

Premium

Free servers can have up to 10 active channels. Premium servers get unlimited channels. See Premium.
