What is Auto Voting?
Auto Voting votes for Server Directory servers for you every 12 hours, so you can keep supporting a server without coming back to vote.
Each server you auto vote for uses one slot. You manage your slots in the Auto Votes card in Account Settings. You can also get there from Set up Auto Vote in a server's vote window.
Getting Slots
Melonly Pro includes one free slot and lowers the price of any others. Everyone else can buy slots separately. You can have up to 10 slots in total, including the free one.
| Price per Slot | Monthly | Annually |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $1.49 | $14.99 |
| With Melonly Pro | $0.99 | $9.99 |
Prices are in US dollars, plus tax. If you get or lose Melonly Pro later, your slots switch to the matching price automatically.
To buy slots, click Get more slots, choose how many you want and how often to pay, then click Continue to checkout. Your new slots appear once your payment is confirmed.
While a checkout is open, its slots are reserved and count toward your limit of 10. They're released if the checkout expires, which happens after 30 minutes.
Adding a Server
- Open the Auto Votes Card
Go to Account Settings and find Auto Votes.
- Click Add Server
This button appears when you have a free slot. If you don't, click Get more slots first.
- Find the Server
Search by name. Only public Server Directory listings appear.
- Click Activate
Your first vote happens about 12 hours later. The card then shows roughly when the next vote is due.
You need a linked Discord account to activate a slot. You can only use one slot per server, and you can't auto vote for a server you own.
How Auto Votes Work
An auto vote adds to the server's vote count and counts toward boosts, just like a vote by hand. If the server has a Voter Role and you're in its Discord, you get that role too.
| Situation | Description |
|---|---|
| You vote by hand for a different server | This still works. Auto votes don't use up your own vote every 12 hours |
| You already voted by hand for the same server | The auto vote waits until 12 hours after your vote |
| An auto vote just went through for a server | You can't vote by hand for that server until 12 hours have passed |
Managing Your Slots
Each server in the card has these buttons and badges:
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Pro badge | This is the free slot from Melonly Pro |
| Paused badge | This slot isn't voting right now. Only Remove server is available |
| Replace server | Moves the slot to a different server without resetting the time of the next vote |
| Remove server | Empties the slot so you can use it for another server |
Removing a server doesn't cancel your subscription, so you keep paying for the empty slot. To cancel or change a subscription, go to Billing.
Example Use Cases
- Supporting your favourite communities without setting a reminder
- Keeping a Voter Role on a server you play on every day
- Helping a server you staff compete for a boost
