DailyQuotes: How Credits & Limits Work

This page explains the user-facing “economy” and limits behind the bot’s main interactive features (quotes, translations, and the Live Quote Editor).

Credits for /quote and /translate_quote

On non-premium servers:

  • Each successful /quote use costs 1 credit.
  • Each successful /translate_quote use costs 1 credit.
  • When you are out of credits, the bot shows your balance and prompts you to vote to earn more.

Free credit cycle:

  • You automatically receive 1 free credit every 12 hours.
  • Practically, you can use /quote and /translate_quote at least twice per day without voting.

On premium servers:

  • These commands do not require credits.

How to check Live Editor edit credits

  • Use /show_votes to see your remaining vote-based edit credits for the Live Quote Editor.

Live Quote Editor: edits, cooldown, and font caps

When you create a Live Image Quote (via Apps → Image Quote or the /image quotes tutorial):

  • Your new quote starts with 3 free edits.
  • Each edit you make consumes 1 of your remaining edits (background/font/color/size changes).
  • When those 3 edits are used up, further edits come from your vote-based edit credits.
  • If you have no edit credits remaining, you will be prompted to vote.

Spam protection:

  • Creating a new image quote has a 30-second per-user cooldown.

Font size limits:

  • Each font has a maximum size.
  • When you reach the maximum for the selected font, the bot will show a “Maximum font size reached!” message and won’t increase further.

Examples:

  • Agbalumo max size: 45
  • OpenSans max size: 45
  • AmaticSC max size: 80

Server Quotes limits

Community quotes stored in a server:

  • Free servers can store up to 50 quotes.
  • Premium servers can store unlimited quotes.

Premium in plain terms

Premium primarily unlocks:

  • Public (non-ephemeral) quote posting.
  • Custom quote delivery times.
  • Premium quote customization (picture style, fonts, and colors).
  • Access to premium-only features like /submit_quote and /force_quote.
