XP & Levels — XP & Leveling Premium

How members earn XP from messages, the rate limit that prevents spam, the fixed level curve, the /profile command, and the Settings page.

Overview

Every qualifying message a member sends in your server earns a random amount of XP. XP accumulates into a level on a fixed curve shared by every server. This page covers how XP is earned, the anti-spam rate limit, the level curve, the /profile command, and the Settings page where you configure the rate limit.

For the level-up announcement template and channel, see Level-Up Announcements. For level-to-role rewards, see Level Rewards. For the five mini-games that award extra XP, see Mini-Games.

Earning XP

XP is awarded automatically for ordinary chat. There is nothing a member does beyond talking — no command to run, no opt-in. The rules are simple and fixed:

XP per message

Each qualifying message awards a random integer between 10 and 30 XP (inclusive). The range is the same for every server and cannot be changed. The randomness keeps the system fair and prevents scripting.

The rate limit (anti-spam)

To prevent a member from farming XP by spamming, each server has a per-member rate limit. The limit is expressed as a rolling window: at most N messages earn XP within any M-second window.

• Default: 1 message every 5 seconds (so a member who sends 10 messages in 5 seconds earns XP for only the first one).
• The window is per member, not per channel or per server — one member's spam does not throttle anyone else.
• The window is rolling: each qualifying message refreshes the timer. Messages that arrive within the window after a qualifying one are treated as spam and earn nothing.
• You can configure both the message count and the window length on the Settings page.

What counts as a message

A "qualifying message" is a real message from a human member in a server where Mokito is present. The following do not earn XP:

• Messages from bots and applications (including Mokito itself).
• Messages in DMs — only messages in a server count.
• Slash-command invocations — the command response is not a "message" for XP purposes.
• Wagers from /coin-flip and claims from /daily — these award or remove XP directly, but they do not count as messages and do not increment the "Messages Sent" stat.

The level curve

XP maps to levels on a fixed curve. The curve is the same for every server and cannot be changed. Level 0 is reached at 100 total XP; below that, a member is level 0. Each level requires progressively more XP than the one before it.

The XP required to advance from level N to level N+1 follows the formula:

5 * (N + 1)^2 + 50 * (N + 1) + 100

The total XP required to reach level N follows the formula:

(10 * N^3 + 165 * N^2 + 755 * N + 600) / 6

Leveling up

When a member's accumulated XP crosses a level threshold, they level up. What happens next depends on your configuration:

• If you have set a level-up announcement channel and template, Mokito posts the announcement there.
• If you have configured level rewards, Mokito grants the role for every level threshold the member crossed.

Why level-ups can lag a minute

Level-ups are not processed at the exact moment a message is sent. A background task runs every minute and scans for members whose level has advanced past the last-processed level. This means a level-up announcement or role grant can lag up to about a minute behind the actual level crossing. If a member crosses multiple levels in one jump (for example, from a large /daily claim), the task processes every crossed level in one pass — the member gets every announcement and every reward role they passed.

Losing XP

XP can go down as well as up. The /coin-flip mini-game lets a member wager XP on a coin flip — a wrong guess removes the wagered XP. This can drop a member's level. A loss is clamped at zero — a member can never go below 0 XP, even if the wager exceeds their current balance (only the available XP is actually lost). See Mini-Games → Coin Flip for details.

Per-member stats

For every member who has earned XP, Mokito tracks the following:

The Settings page

The XP & Levels → Settings page is where you configure the XP rate limit and the level-up announcement. Only the server owner and managers can open it. The page has three sections:

• Level-up message template — the text Mokito posts when a member levels up. See Level-Up Announcements for the full template reference.
• Announcement channel — the channel where level-up messages are posted. See Level-Up Announcements → Announcement channel.
• XP rate limit — the anti-spam window (covered below).

Rate limit fields

The rate limit is set with two number inputs:

A helper line below the inputs reads: "A member earns XP for at most N message(s) sent within any M-second window." Save is at the bottom of the form; a green toast confirms the new rate limit.

Command Reference

The XP & Leveling surface exposes one slash command:
