    • Ensure Kick Bot's role is positioned high enough in the role hierarchy
  3. Seek Support:

    If you're still experiencing issues, join the Kick Bot support server and create a new post.

    For faster and more effective support:

    • Clearly explain your issue in detail
    • Include the response from the /errors command
    • Provide any relevant screenshots or additional information
