Roles and guild access explained

Who can do what on the site, and why roles are kept apart from profiles.

The roles

Member is the default. Raid leader creates and runs teams, up to five each. Helper assists one specific team, two per team. Admin manages members, roles and editorial work. Owner is a single account with everything, established once at setup.

Guild access

Guild access is a separate switch from roles. It marks you as part of the guild and is what opens applications, invitations and raid participation.

Why roles live in their own place

Roles are stored in a table of their own rather than on your profile, and every check happens on the server. That means editing your own profile can never grant you rights you were not given.

A record of changes

Every role change, access change and editorial decision is written to a log that owners and admins can read.

Source & review

Written by the editorial team; reflects the current permission model.
