# Default Roles

Roles are a crucial part of every Discord server. Different roles will determine the exact level of permission control that each user is granted across the server. With that in mind, Mochi provides several ways to help users create and manage roles with ease, one of which is **Default Role**.

It’s super easy to assign your newcomers with the default role you want to with `$defaultrole` or short-hand `$dr`. From there, you can choose what specific action to do:

* `/role default set <role_name>`: assign a default role for newcomers.
* `/role default remove`: remove the default role for newcomers.
* `/role default info`: display the existing default role for newcomers.
