Facts about Discord Server Roles

Deleting a Discord server role automatically removes it from all members instantly, but any permissions that role granted remain active until the member receives a role update or server refresh.

Role permissions in Discord operate through a bitwise system where each permission is represented as a power of 2, allowing servers to assign over 60 distinct granular permissions per role.

Mentioning a role in Discord using the @ symbol generates a notification to all members assigned that role, even if they have notifications muted for the entire server.

Each Discord server role can be assigned a custom color that displays next to member usernames, with over 16 million color combinations available through hex code selection.

Discord server roles display in a hierarchical order from top to bottom, with higher-positioned roles granting members permissions that lower roles cannot override regardless of additional role assignments.
