Overview
What it does
QuestForge replaces XP-per-message spam with quests you design: post in the right channels, help others, show up in voice. Reaching a goal pays out XP, a role and a badge; leaderboards rank all-time XP, season XP or reputation, and reputation has a cooldown so it can't be farmed.
