Silent Kudos for everyday community effort
Allow community members to quietly send private thank-you messages to peers using /thanks. Express genuine gratitude without turning appreciation into a public performance contest, leaderboard, or points race.

Quiet joy alert: @Wulfrik420 is grateful for you today π
They added a small note: you are a god among men my friend

Simple, Direct, and Private Appreciation
A single command lets members send thoughtful recognition directly to a peer's inbox with clear rules and safety checks.
Target Member Selection
Select any valid human member in the current server using the mandatory member parameter.
β’ Self-thanks attempts are automatically rejected
β’ Bot accounts cannot be targeted
Personal Note (1-240 Chars)
Include an optional personal message using the message parameter to explain why you are thanking them.
β’ Concise length limit keeps feedback constructive
β’ Private delivery directly inside the recipient DM
Anonymous Option
Set anonymous: true to withhold your Discord handle and display name from the recipient's thank-you DM.
β’ Hides sender name from recipient only
β’ Limited sender and recipient details are kept to prevent misuse
Default Limits & Responsible Data Boundaries
Pair cooldowns and daily sender limits discourage repetitive sends. Short-lived event metadata supports these anti-abuse checks.
12-Hour Pair Cooldown
Prevents sending multiple kudos to the same member within a 12-hour window.
Per-Sender Daily Cap
Limits total thank-you sends across the server to 6 per sender per day.
48-Hour Short-Lived Retention
The default retention for short-lived event metadata is 48 hours.
Privacy & Mode Boundaries
Clear operational facts without exaggerating claims
Silent Kudos keeps appreciation private while using short-lived event metadata for cooldowns and daily sender limits.
Silent Kudos is completely unavailable when Ghost Mode is active in the server.
Anonymity hides identity from the recipient, but not from anti-abuse tracking systems.
The recipient receives the appreciation privately, and the sender receives a private confirmation and preview. Silent Kudos creates no public gratitude feed.
Reaching the 6 daily sends limit pauses further sends; it does not trigger automated retries.
Graceful Blocked DM Detection
What Happens If Direct Messages Are Blocked?
If the targeted member has direct messages disabled from server members or has blocked DM interactions, Discord rejects the message.
- CLNR intercepts the delivery error immediately.
- Reports the delivery failure privately to the sender in a message visible only to them.
- Reports a delivery error privately instead of claiming success when Discord rejects the DM.
Sender Experience & Daily Limits
When a DM delivery fails due to blocked messages:
- No public message or channel alert is generated.
- The sender is informed so they understand why the note was not delivered.
- A blocked-DM failure does not start the pair cooldown or consume a successful-send slot in the daily limit.
No Leaderboards, No Points, No Gamification
Silent Kudos is intentionally built without public scores, badges, or ranking tables to keep appreciation genuine and stress-free.
Zero Public Leaderboards
There are no public ranking tables or kudos counts in channels. Community members never compete for top positions or artificial appreciation scores.
No Reward Automation
Silent Kudos does not grant XP, Discord roles, currency, or automated perks. It remains a pure tool for human interpersonal gratitude.
Discovery Nudge via /my_score
When members check their standing with /my_score, an embedded discovery nudge subtly highlights /thanks as a way to recognize helpful peers.
