Security Setup
Fake Permissions
Restrict moderators to only use bot commands for moderation.
Why use fake permissions?
Fake permissions negate the possibility of a rogue moderator using Discord’s native permissions to cause harm. It’s a security measure which ensures that your server can’t be compromised by malicious actions.
How do fake permissions work?
When a role is given fake permissions, such as BanMembers
, members with that role will only be able to use the bot’s commands for moderation actions, but won’t be able to use Discord’s native moderation features.

The following commands can only be used by the server owner with Administrator permissions.
