Overview

Extra Owners are trusted users who have near-full antinuke access equivalent to the server owner. They can manage antinuke admins, enable and disable all protections, change punishments, and configure Verdict Mode — everything except managing other extra owners.
Extra Owners have significant control over your server’s security configuration. Only assign this role to users you completely trust.

Access Control

Only the server owner can manage extra owners.
Extra owners cannot add or remove other extra owners. This privilege is reserved exclusively for the server owner.

Commands

Add a user as an extra owner to grant them elevated antinuke access.
~extraowner <@user>
Aliases: eo, xowner
Permissions: Server Owner only
Limit: 3 extra owners per server
Use this for co-owners or head admins who need full antinuke control. For staff who only need to enable protections, use ~antinukeadmin instead.
Remove a user from the extra owner list.
~extraowner remove <@user>
Aliases: eo remove, xowner remove
Permissions: Server Owner only
View all current extra owners for your server.
~extraowner list
Aliases: eo list, xowner list
Permissions: Server Owner only

What Extra Owners Can Do

Full control over all antinuke protection modules:
  • Enable and disable any protection
  • Change punishment types (ban, kick, strip)
  • Use the global punishment selector
  • Enable and disable all protections at once
  • Configure individual protections via dedicated commands

Slot Limit

Maximum of 3 Extra Owners per server.The server owner and bot developers do not count toward this limit. If you’ve reached the limit, you must remove an existing extra owner before adding a new one.

Extra Owner vs Antinuke Admin

Extra Owner

  • Enable and disable protections
  • Change punishments
  • Manage antinuke admins
  • Configure Verdict Mode
  • Near-full antinuke access
  • Limit: 3 per server

Antinuke Admin

  • Enable protections only
  • Cannot disable or change punishments
  • Cannot manage other admins
  • No Verdict Mode access
  • Limited antinuke access
  • Limit: 3 per server
Use Extra Owner for co-owners and head admins. Use Antinuke Admin for moderators who should be able to activate protections but not alter the overall configuration.

Setup Guide

1

Identify Trusted Users

Decide which users need full antinuke access. These should be co-owners, head admins, or users you trust as much as yourself with your server’s security.
2

Add Extra Owners

Add each trusted user as an extra owner.
~extraowner @CoOwner
~extraowner @HeadAdmin
3

Verify the List

Confirm the correct users were added.
~extraowner list
4

Inform Extra Owners

Let your extra owners know what they have access to and what your expectations are for managing the antinuke system.

Best Practices

1

Keep Numbers Low

1-2 extra owners is usually enough. The fewer people with full access, the lower your attack surface.
~extraowner list
2

Audit Regularly

Review the extra owner list after any staff changes to make sure only active, trusted users have access.
~extraowner list
3

Remove Access Promptly

Remove extra owner access immediately if a user leaves, becomes inactive, or loses your trust.
~extraowner remove @FormerStaff
4

Use Antinuke Admin for Limited Access

If a user only needs to be able to enable protections during an incident, use ~antinukeadmin instead of ~extraowner.
~antinukeadmin @SecurityModerator

Common Use Cases

Grant a trusted co-owner full antinuke access.
~extraowner @CoOwner
They can now manage all antinuke settings and admins just like you.
Give your head admin the ability to fully configure antinuke without needing to contact you.
~extraowner @HeadAdmin
When a trusted staff member is promoted or steps down, update the list accordingly.
# Remove outgoing extra owner
~extraowner remove @SteppingDown

# Add incoming extra owner
~extraowner @NewCoOwner
Immediately revoke access if an extra owner’s account is compromised or they abuse their privileges.
~extraowner remove @CompromisedAccount

Troubleshooting

Problem: You’ve hit the 3 extra owner limit.Solution:
  1. View current extra owners: ~extraowner list
  2. Remove one: ~extraowner remove @user
  3. Add the new user: ~extraowner @newuser
Problem: Trying to add someone who’s already an extra owner.Solution: Check the list with ~extraowner list to see who’s already been added.
Problem: Attempting to add the server owner as an extra owner.Explanation: The server owner already has full access by default and doesn’t need to be added.
Problem: Trying to add a bot as an extra owner.Explanation: Only human users can be extra owners. Use the whitelist system to exempt bots from punishments.
Problem: Cannot run the extraowner command.Explanation: Only the server owner can manage extra owners. Extra owners themselves cannot add or remove other extra owners.
Problem: Invalid user mention or ID.Solution:
  • Mention the user directly: ~extraowner @username
  • Or use their user ID: ~extraowner 123456789012345678
  • Verify the user is in the server

Security Considerations

Extra owners can:
  • Disable all antinuke protections
  • Change punishments to none, removing all enforcement
  • Add and remove antinuke admins
  • Fully reconfigure Verdict Mode
A compromised or malicious extra owner can effectively disarm your entire antinuke system. Choose carefully and revoke access immediately if anything seems suspicious.
