# Fake Permissions

## 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 **bleh**, 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 (command)`

## Setting up fake permissions

**Granting fake permissions to a role**

Use the `fakepermissions add` command to grant a fake permission to a role.

```
Syntax: ;fakepermissions add [role] [permission]
Example: ;fakepermissions add mod manage_messages
```

**Revoking fake permissions from a role**

Use the `fakepermissions remove` command to revoke a fake permission from a role.

```
Syntax: ;fakepermissions remove [role] [permission]
Example: ;fakepermissions remove mod manage_messages
```

**Clear all fake permissions from a role**

Use the `fakepermissions clear` command to revoke all fake permission from a role.

```
Syntax: ;fakepermissions clear [role]
Example: ;fakepermissions clear mod
```

**Viewing fake permissions**

Use the `fakepermissions list` command to view all fake permissions.

```
Syntax: ;fakepermissions list [role]
Example: ;fakepermissions list mod
```

**Revoking all fake permissions**

Use the `fakepermissions reset` command to reset all fake permissions.
