How do I correct an error on MEE6?

Sometimes MEE6 Post this message on your server:

«Oops, it looks like I can't assign one of the roles listed here. Please fix this by moving my role above the roles listed here.»

This error simply means that MEE6 does not have sufficient permissions to assign a role to a member. The bot can never assign a role that is already assigned above his own in the hierarchy.

To fix this, just two adjustments are needed:

  • Pass the role MEE6 in administrator.
  • Define the role of MEE6 in addition to the roles he must assign in the server settings.

Once these two issues are resolved, the bot will be able to handle roles, moderation, and automatic assignment of new members without any problems.

  1. Hello, I would like that when a person puts the emoji "🥺" it does not count as an offense but that it mutates directly for 1 hour, because I have already used "forbidden word" and I put that it was 1warn
