   > If both the names and roles fields of either the admins or members properties are empty arrays, or are not existent, it means the database has no admins or members.
   
   > Having no admins, only server admins (with the reserved _admin role) are able to update design document and make other admin level changes.
   
   > Having no members, any user can write regular documents (any non-design document) and read documents from the database.
