New Permission: "Assign Roles"
I’d like to see a new role permission added that would allow users to assign any role to other users who are under their highest role, without allowing them to Create, Delete, Re-Arrange or otherwise Edit roles or Edit channel specific permissions.
This new role permission could be called "Assign Roles". It can go next to the already implemented "Manage Roles" permission (which wouldn't change).
As a moderator, I’m frequently having to add or remove roles from users in servers for a variety of different scenarios. But as an admin, it feels overpowered to give out the current "Manage Roles" permission to moderators who aren't using those editorial options to edit a role. This would allow low level managers and less mistakes will be made by moderators. It would also create a split, where moderators can focus on moderating and admins can focus on managing the server.
If you like my suggestion and would like to show Discord how much we really need this, you can click/tap the (^) "Up Arrow" in the top right of this post. Don't forget to leave this post a comment with your thoughts/opinions too!

It sounds like a really epic feature for discord to put in.

Great idea, it is really to hard to make bots, that are easy to control and can do exactly this.

A year-old for a simple must-have function for server moderation. 🤷♂️

We really need this!

I second this idea. I would add the ability to choose from a list which roles this person can assign, instead of just "all roles below this one".
Example: My server has 3 clans, call them Red, Green, and Blue. There are Generals and Members. The Generals should have permission to add and remove people from their own clan, but not the other clans. The problem with "all roles below this one" is that not only can a General assign and manage ALL of the Clan Member roles, but whichever General role is listed first can modify the other Generals!
Everyone on my server agrees that bots are good for add-on functions (playing music, rolling dice), but shouldn't be used to manage the server or build a community around; i.e. if the bot stops working one day, the server/game won't be FUBAR. The only non-bot workaround I can find is having a separate server for each clan. But we all play the game together and we are friends despite being in opposing clans. We have an "All" area where we chat about the game and non-game stuff. So this would necessitate a fourth server. Four servers for one group of friends just to get the permissions right seems a bit... excessive.
This feature would eliminate all of that nonsense! Please please make it happen.

This is a feature I've wanted ever since I started using Discord. The way Sabin words it is even better. It's been more than 2 years now, what will it take to bring attention to it?

I agree with you.

This is a much needed addition to the permissions list!

Oh my god YES, it's ridiculous that to allow people to give/remove roles to a user they also get power to set channel role permissions AND edit/add/delete the roles themselves. This suggestion should really be approved and would be super helpful.

"I would like there to be a new feature added, where you have the option in the Permissions section, to assign Roles a Permission such as "Assign Roles". It can go bellow the already implemented "Manage Roles"."
That would absolutely make such a difference and I imagine would be relatively simple to add.
I don't want to give people there ability to mess with my permissions and roles structure, but I do want to allow them to assign roles lower than their role.

Been a couple years. We’re up to 570+ up votes! Keep sharing this suggestion :-)

How do we bump this or bring it to their attention?
What is required?
More votes, More time, More shares, More comments?
Someone to take this to them personally?
Cant require more support can they? This is already supported enough by the need for this feature!
2+Years & nearly 600 Upvotes!2 -
This is a must have.

Something I've been looking for a very long time, but it doesn't exist yet, does it...
In the meantime, what bots can be used to achieve the same goals?

Please this is pretty core to building communities of any type with people that don't understand the management of servers.

I honestly can't believe that this suggestion was presented 3 years ago now and there hasn't been a word from discord about it. This is truly a must have for server management.

Indeed

And it doesn't sounds like something like this would be something incredibly difficult to implement.
I surely think something like this would be a blessing to server owners/admins helping us to do the role management without being so dependent on bots1 -
Is there some reaction from Develop team to this? Its 3y old now...
0 -
No, and there won't be a reaction from the development team, because they don't care about users' feedback.

+1 need this feature :)

I 100% support this idea!
