Overview

Why use fake permissions?

Fake permissions negate the possibility of a rogue moderator using a script which floods the Discord API and mass bans all members, or any other harmful action. It’s a security measure which ensures that your server can’t be nuked whatsoever.

How do fake permissions work?

When a moderator is given fake permissions, such as ban_members, they will be able to use the /ban command with bleed, but they won’t be able to use the native Discord ban feature.

Getting command permissions

You can locate the required permissions for a command with /help.

Setting up fake permissions

The following commands can only be used by the server owner.
Use the /access fakepermissions add command to grant a fake permission to a role.
Use the /access fakepermissions remove command to revoke a fake permission from a role.
Use the /access fakepermissions list command to view all fake permissions.
You can optionally specify a role to only view the fake permissions of that role.
Use the /access fakepermissions reset command to reset all fake permissions.
