[opers excepted for obvious reasons]

Mode +q in Unreal is founder. It is basically +a (protected user) but
cannot be set by anyone other than services on the founder of a channel
and cannot be unset except by owner. It is also automatic on a founder
when using '/cs id #channel password' rather than set on a user by another
user.

A "normal" user with +q on a channel still requires +o to use '/mode +o
#channel nick'.
