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!

Good idea, but something like this can be accomplished with discords bot API.

Isn't this already the case?

No, currently when you have permission to manage the roles you can only manage the roles below you and I propose that we can define to a role the permission to manage this or that role but not the roles as a following.

Possibly it is Vasp but they wouldn't be able to use the Discord interface to do so. Not everyone is good with chat commands to setup roles. I prefer to use the interface as it is easy to just quickly skim over it to see any permissions that might be off or on which shouldn't be.
It would be a good addition to split those permissions.

i like that

Currently not directly via discord so you can get a bot like Dyno that allows mods to assign roles to users using a command -17 -
but how to get bots....?

I like this idea, I would love for it to be implemented into Discord.
17 -
Great idea!! hope they will add it. 11 -
This would be an awesome feature to have natively in the client. +1 for sure.
OP if you are looking for a way to implement a similar feature to this, you can set up a bot that has manage roles and accepts commands from your moderators. For example, you could script it so that `!addrole @user (Role name/id)` adds the role to a user. That would allow you to log what your mods are doing and also allows them to assign roles without manage roles permission.

Brilliant idea dude.

That is one astonishing idea you got there. Not only will mistakes be reduced, but many complications with trollers will be fixed. If this was added it would help out a lot.
11 -
maybe somthing similar to this but called differently? -7 -
Greatest idea I have ever heard, would make it so much easier for moderators on a server!
10 -
Would definitely need this one.
Permission to give permission specified roles.

This is a really great idea that I had also thought about. It's always seemed that the "Manage Roles" permission was too broad. Splitting up "Assigning" and "Managing" would be great!
16 -
Exactly
7 -
This is a must. In addition to being able to create / edit roles. Giving someone the "Manage Role" permissions allows them unlimited ability to change permissions in a channel even for roles above them, unless the "manage permissions" role in that specific channel is set to X, which you have to do for every channel they have access to.
7 -
Agree completely with cristo, I had to assign X to 100 channels on my server because of this.

(I'm aware that you can bypass this to some degree by creating specific channel roles for each role, but doing it this way creates complications for our muted role, which then can't bypass the specific channel roles that each role would otherwise have. Sorry for not adding this in the original post.)

I also wish they would add a toggleable permission to only allow them to edit / add and remove people to certain roles.

Exactly what I came on here to suggest until I saw this post, c'mon Discord! This should have been an obvious permission to have. And I think better wording for it would be "Assign Roles". Cool to see I'm not the only one wanting something like this.

I wholeheartedly agree to this post, it’s something that I believe would improve Discord.
