Danger role
A role on Discord, or other online application or game with similar role system, that has administrator or administrator-like permissions, but is low enough on the rank hierarchy to be obtainable without checks, for example through the following methods:
- Through some in-site progression
- By purchase
- Being able to be given by a bot
- Being able to be given by a lower-tier staff member
- Through some in-site progression

PSA: After Monday's raid, we have, with heavy hearts, decided to remove the Junior Moderator role.
All current Junior Moderators have been demoted to Retired Staff until we re-add the role, if we can figure out a solution.
The Junior Moderator role was a danger role, in that it was beneath the server's bots and, as such, could be given to users by hacked bots, and had enough power to make it a serious threat.
The investigation into the perpetrator has been fruitless, but we still know that one or more staff members have either fallen for an attack or are behind the raid.
We have taken action to quarantine the staff members that may have been involved.
Danger roles like the old Junior Moderator are, as the title suggests, dangerous by way of being exploitable by attackers. Spread the word to other servers if possible.
