# Chatting Rewards

Server admins can enable Chatting Rewards to let community members earn points simply by being active in the server. You can configure up to **5 channels** where chatting will grant users points.

## <mark style="color:purple;">How to Enable a Chat Reward Channel?</mark>

#### **Use the `/chat add-channel` command**

**Limit:** Up to **5** channels can be added.\
Users will earn points only for eligible messages sent inside these configured channels.

#### **You can use the `/chat remove-channel` command to remove an already added channel.**

### <mark style="color:purple;">Customizations</mark>

#### **1. `/chat reward-per-message`**

Set how many points a user earns for every eligible message they send.\
This lets you fine-tune how quickly users progress through your reward system.

#### **2. `/chat cooldown-per-user`**

Defines how often a user can earn points from chatting.

* The default cooldown is **10 seconds**.
* Example: If a user sends a message and earns points, they must wait 10 seconds before another message can reward them again.
* Any messages sent during the cooldown will **not** give points.

This helps prevent spam and encourages natural conversation.

#### **3. `/chat minimum-characters`**

Set a minimum character requirement for messages to count toward rewards.

* Example: If the minimum is set to **5**, only messages with **5 or more characters** will earn points.\
  This prevents users from sending extremely short or low-effort messages.
