# Self-Roles

> Pick the Discord roles you actually want, game roles, region, experience, notifications, and management specialties. Manage them yourself from Discord, changes save instantly.

Self-roles let you opt in or out of the Discord roles that decide who gets pinged for what and what shows on your profile. Game roles, region, experience, notification pings, management specialties: all of it is toggleable from inside Discord, instantly, no staff needed.

  Click "Manage your roles" on the #self-roles panel, or run /self-roles anywhere on the server.

## How to manage your roles

Self-roles are handled entirely inside Discord, there's no web page or link to wait for anymore. Two ways in, both open the same picker:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the picker">
    Go to the #self-roles channel and click **Manage your roles**, or type `/self-roles` in any channel. Both work from anywhere on the server.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick from the dropdowns">
    A private message opens that only you can see, with one dropdown per category. Your current roles are already selected, so you're editing what you have rather than starting from scratch.
  </Step>

  <Step title="It saves instantly">
    Change a dropdown and the bot applies it straight away. No Save button, no confirmation step, no link that expires. Reopen the picker any time to adjust.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What you can pick

The picker groups roles into five categories:

* **Game Roles** (pick as many as you want), Valorant, League of Legends, Counter-Strike, Call of Duty, Fortnite, Rocket League, Marvel Rivals, Rainbow Six, Apex Legends. Used for tournament alerts, looking-for-team posts, and game-specific news.
* **Region** (pick one), Oceania, North America, Europe, Middle East. Used for region-specific events and announcements.
* **Experience** (pick one), 1 through 5+ years, so teams and mentors can see where you're at.
* **Roles & Notifications** (pick as many as you want), community roles like Free Agent, Player, Coach, Caster, and Content Creator, plus notification opt-ins for Updates, Polls, and News pings.
* **Management Specialties** (pick as many as you want), General, Roster, Social Media, and Business Management for people running orgs.

Region and Experience are single-pick, so choosing a new option swaps the old one out. The other three let you hold as many as you want at once.

Roles that are **not** in the picker (staff, admin, mentor, partner, premium tiers) can't be self-assigned. The dropdowns only ever list the safe opt-in roles, so a tampered selection still can't pull in a restricted one. Those are granted by staff or earned through application flows.

## Clearing a category

Want out of a category entirely? Open the picker, deselect everything in that dropdown, and it clears instantly. Every change is explicit and scoped to one category, so editing one group never touches the roles you kept in another.

## Privacy

Self-role changes are logged so staff can debug "I thought I had X role" reports, but they aren't published anywhere or tied to your public profile.
