A new kind of reaction
Added 2022-10-09 22:47:19 +0000 UTC
One feature I always wanted since I developed the Kudos system, was a way to effortlessly use it to reward good behavior in the community, so that Kudos is not only gained by generating images, but also by supporting community interaction
However making a discord bot is not something I've done before and I just do not have enough time to do it myself. So I decided to use the other idea I had for rewarding kudos, Bounties. I created a bounty for someone making that exact bot for me, and was lucky enough that one of the most active and helpful members of the channel stepped in: JamDon2
So today I am revealing the new function in the Stable Horde discord where you can quickly reward other members.
We now have 7 new emojis that are possible in the Division by Zer0 server.
Whenever you react to any message with one of these, it will transfer the shown amount of kudos to the target of the message. However for this to work, the owner and the target both have to have logged in to the bot using their API key.
If you select such an emoji but you're not logged in, the emoji will be removed and you will receive a message from the bot to /login.
Likewise if the target is not logged in, the emoji will be removed and they will receive a PM from the bot to /login.
If both parties are logged in, then the target will receive the specified amount of kudos from the target. Unless they sender doesn't have enough of course, in which case the emoji will be removed. When a transfer happens successfully, the bot will confirm it for both parties with a PM
I put many scales to send, from 10, to 5K, so that I can incentivize their use, even for minor "thumbs up" reactions to simple posts.
I hope this will have a positive effect on the community and can't way to see what kind of order emerges from this new feature!
Soon I will be releasing this bot to also be allowed to join any server, so you'll be able to use this functionality everywhere!
Now I just need better icons for each reaction. I feel another bounty coming...
