Demeter is a Discord bot that identifies and quantifies your members' commitment by assigning them reputation points.
This is a project made in my free time, without any financial purpose, you can do what you want with it, but I will not be responsible for anything.
This text is partially generated via an online translator, as I never had any English lessons, I won't be able to do better, but if you want to improve the writing, feel free.
- Reputation distribution via reaction/response Discord
- Quadratic funding to redistribute reputation more evenly
- DM-free captcha to protect your server and new members
- Assign roles based on reputation
- Move off-topic messages to another channel directly managed by trusted members of your community
- Poll your community via reputation-weighted proposals
- Reward directly or via proposal your most active members
- Giveaway weighted by reputation or not
- Mute a member via vote
- Everything is saved on IPFS
- Everything is customizable via a command on the Discord
I designed the bot with a best-effort vision to reduce to the maximum the required maintenance.
For example, there is no database, regularly the local data are simply saved on IPFS(and one day on StarkNet ^.^ ).
To host the bot, you can simply create a Discord application, then in Bot
activate all Intent
, create an environment variable DISCORD_TOKEN
with your Discord secret token.
To add the bot to your Discord, you can generate the link in OAuth2
, then URL generator
, select Bot
with administrator permissions and applications.commands
.
To save the data, we use web3.storage, you can create a free account on it, generate an API key and put it in an environment variable WEB3_TOKEN
And that's it! All that's left to do is yarn install
and yarn run bot

When you just added the bot to the server, no round starts, which means that nothing is running.
Before launching the first round, you can set the default configurations, the next rounds and the new users will inherit them.
All the configurations are explained below. Once you've done that, you have two choices.
You can load the history of the Discord since a given date.
/reputation fetch-history start-date:31/01/2021
will delete all the rounds, user reputations and config then re-generate them since that date.
This can take several hours if there are many messages to fetch.
You can use /round start-first
if you want to start the first round now.
Demeter is a Discord bot that allows you to have a self-managed community via a reputation system, meaning that each member can earn or help someone to earn reputation points.
These reputation points represent your involvement in the community.
They are used, for example, to assign you roles, vote on proposals, and for the moderation of the Discord, such as moving an off-topic message or censoring a member.
You gain reputation automatically when you receive a reaction or response to your message.
Hence, it is crucial to react to messages you like to reward the author.
When you react to a message, the author will only gain reputation at the end of the current round(14 days).
At the end of a round, each member will lose between 5% and 20% of his reputation.
The more he has, the more he loses to avoid a gap between the most active and the others.
To avoid bots attacks, the reputation you can offer equals 5% of your total reputation.
The system will automatically bring the total back to 5% if you help others earn more than 5% of your current reputation.
x = reputation
m = min reputation decay(0.05)
M = max reputation decay(0.25)
s = standard deviation of active members(reputation > min reputation)
Example with a standard deviation of 50
In addition to this direct reputation gain, we use Quadratic Funding, which allows us to distribute a given amount of reputation by favoring the diversity of authors instead of simply taking into account the amount of reputation received.
Thus a person who has earned 1 reputation point from 100 people will receive more than a person who has received 100 reputation points from one person.
The amount allocated to Quadratic Funding is 100 reputation points in addition to the total amount that was burned at the end of the round.
This grant is weighted by the person's role and seniority who helps you gain this reputation to avoid bot attacks again.
A person who has just arrived will make you earn less than a member who has been active for 3 months.
Example of seniority computation
You can visualize directly in 3D the community engagement, you will need the link of the database /guild db-url
.
The switch "manual/auto" will automatically jump to the next round.
The switch "all/active" allows to hide the members who were not active during the round.
The switch "animation/static" allows to activate or not the animations.
The switch "received/sent" allows to see the reputation received or given during the round by passing the mouse over the members.
The bot provides a captcha without DM to reduce the risk of scams impersonating the bot.
You can type /button captcha
to display the button that will offer the user to solve the Captcha.
The user will then have to find 3 times successively the emoji hidden in the image, he will be granted the captcha-role(/guild config captcha-role:@🥚Humain.e
).
You can choose to add a role based on accumulated reputation automatically.
/guild config reputation-role-role:@🧙sage reputation-role-min:300
will add the role "🧙sage" to all members with over 300 reputation points(0=disabled).
By creating custom emoji you can allow your members to move off-topic messages to the appropriate channel.
You must first define how many reputations are needed to move a message, for example, 200 /guild config reaction-transfer-reputation:200
(0=disabled)
Then for each channel you can create a custom emoji that members will use to redirect messages, for example:
/guild config reaction-transfer-reputation::hs_bar: reaction-transfer-channel:#🍹-bar
this emoji will redirect a message in the channel bar, with a custom emoji "hs_bar" like the one below.
As soon as 200 reputations have reacted with this emoji to the message, it will be transferred.
You can allow your members to start proposals.
For that, define the minimum quantity to start a proposal and the minimum amount for the vote to be valid and where to put the proposals with /guild config-2 min-rep-start-proposal:500 min-rep-confirm-proposal:2000 channel-proposal:#📜-proposition
(0=disabled)
Start a vote with the following command:
/proposal start message:https://discord.com/channels/745336259194650788/834365660293365821/924067576743616574 duration:5
If you get 500 reputation points, a vote will be launched in 📜-proposition, it will then be necessary that this proposal gets 2000 reputation points within the 5 days for the vote to be considered valid.
It is also possible to offer reputation via a proposal by adding mint-user:@Charles mint-qty:500
to the previous command.
To reward a member who has made a significant contribution, it is possible by mentioning his work in the channel configured as the pantheon with the command /guild config channel-pantheon:#🏅-panthéon channel-pantheon-enable:True
.
People reacting with an emoji to this message will help the people mentioned earn reputation points instead of the message's author.
You can offer to your community to censor a user, just choose the amount of reputation needed via the command /guild config-2 min-rep-mute:100
(0=disabled)
Then anyone can start a vote to mute for x minutes via the following command /proposal mute user:@Charles duration:5
You can run a reputation-weighted giveaway with the following command /giveaway message:https://discord.com/channels/745336259194650788/834432995972349973/925382608970465341 weighted:True
