Chat Drops

Chat drops are interactive trivia events that appear randomly in active channels. The first member to type the correct answer wins credits. No command required to participate — members just type in chat.

They turn passive chatting into a shared moment — everyone in the channel can compete, and winning one feels more tangible than a silent background credit drop.

How Chat Drops Work​

  1. A member's message triggers the chat drop (based on the chat-drops drop rate)
  2. The bot posts a question in the same channel
  3. Members race to type the correct answer
  4. First correct answer wins — the bot announces the winner

Question Types​

Chat Rewards includes 1,000+ built-in questions covering general knowledge, pop culture, history, science, geography, and more. There are also:

  • Math problems — calculated on the spot
  • Typing challenges — a random string of characters that members must retype in lowercase (copy-pasting is intentionally blocked by requiring lowercase input)
  • Multiple choice — members click a button instead of typing; each member gets one attempt

Answers are case-insensitive. The answer must be a whole-word match (not a partial word).

Rewards​

Each chat drop awards 250–300 credits to the winner. If the winner has an active multiplier, the bonus applies on top.

Custom Questions​

You can add your own questions to the pool with /chat-drops create. Custom questions appear alongside built-in questions. See Custom Chat Drops.

Frequency​

Control how often chat drops appear with the chat-drops rate in /rates manage.

Recommended ranges:

  • Lower-activity servers: 0.7–1%
  • Higher-activity servers: 0.3–0.7%

To disable chat drops entirely, set the rate to 0%.

Manual Drops​

Admins can trigger a chat drop at any time with a custom question:

/spawn chat-drop <question> <answer> [#channel] [reward]

See Spawn for details.

Troubleshooting​

Chat drops never appear:

  1. /rates view — confirm chat-drops rate is above 0%
  2. /active-channels view — confirm channels are active
  3. Confirm bot has Send Messages permission in the channel

Bot doesn't detect the answer:

  • Answer must match exactly (case-insensitive, whole-word)
  • No extra spaces or characters
  • Multiple-choice drops require clicking a button, not typing
