Becoming a staff member MADE EASY!
By: Orange Date: March 9, 2013, 2:18 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
What we look for:
Here on Merch Bukkit, we have to be able to trust our staff
members to do exactly what they are supposed to. This for both
the welfare of other players, as well as other staff members.
These are some of the qualities we look for.
To become a moderator, you must be...
Honest. Simply put, don't lie. It's easy for us to tell.
Mature. We don't base anything off of physical age, it all has
to do with how mature you act. If you act like a mature,
intelligent human being, then you've got a pretty good shot at
making it here. If you act like an ape that's hyped up on
kool-aid, well... Let's just say that your chances are slim.
Helpful. We're always looking out for players who help out
everyone else, whether they be new to the server, new to
minecraft, or even a veteran.
Polite. If you're rude, we don't want you to represent our
server, it's as simple as that. politeness goes a long way.
Respectful. Our staff members respect all players, and we expect
the same in return. If you disrespect any of our staff members,
even the lower ranks, you will be punished. We will not tolerate
any form of disrespect.
Responsible. Responsible players are always aware of what is
going on, know and obey all of the rules, and take care of any
issues that they have with as little friction as possible. This
means only submitting tickets and bug reports that are relevant
issues.
Literate. Our mods are expected to use (mostly) proper grammar
in order to clearly and effectively convey the message of the
server, and to enforce the rules. For example, players using
words such as "plz" "pls" "thx" "sry" are generally not the
players we want to become staff members.
Intelligent. Moderators must be able to solve problems on their
own, especially if there are no admins around to assist them.
This may sound easy, but it can actually be very difficult,
depending on the issue at hand. We expect all of our staff
members to be able to handle almost any situation thrown at
them.
Some questions you want to ask yourself if you think you're
ready to be staff:
Have I broken any rules? If you've broken more than 3 rules on
our server, you are not eligible for a staff position.
Do I get along with others? If you don't get along with other
players, you will not make a good moderator, and we will
probably not choose you.
Do I play here often? We're looking for staff members that will
be active. This means logging in almost daily, and playing for
more than 10-15 minutes at a time.
Have I ever been banned here? If you have been banned from our
server for any reason, you are not eligible for a staff
position. This is non-negotiable.
Do I really want to be a staff member? Being a staff member here
at Merch Bukkit is hard work, and often consumes a lot of time.
If you're not ready to devote your time and focus to the server,
then you probably do not want to be a staff member. Plus it
ruins the game for you.
What do I get to do as a staff member? Though our staff members
have special permissions and privileges, they are just like any
other player. All of our staff members must abide by every rule,
no exceptions. All gameplay must be fair, and we do not give our
moderators advantages over other players. Moderators are not
permitted to do whatever they please; they are not, in fact,
gods.
They are simply here to make the game safe and enjoyable for all
other players on the server, and if this means
kicking/banning/muting etc. then it can and will be done. If a
staff member is abusing you, please report to the forum
immediately. Moderators are not exempt from being banned, and
are certainly subject to removal of rank, if the admins deem it
necessary.
If you meet any of these criteria, you are automatically and
indefinitely ineligible to become as staff member.
You will NOT be staff if:
You have been banned on our server atleast 3 times.
You have more than 2 global bans from any banning services.
You have broken more than 3 rules on our server.
YOU HAVE EVER ASKED FOR A STAFF POSITION.
Other players frequently report you for abusive or immature
behaviour.
So, what is the biggest determining factor in our selection of a
moderator? It's simple: "Do we need a moderator?" If the answer
to this question is no, then we will not be choosing one until a
need arises. If we only have 10 players online, we really only
need 1 staff member around. There would be no need for 4 out of
those 10 to be staff.
Things to remember:
The things listed above are not the only thing things taken into
consideration when choosing a mod. There are countless factors
that our administrators analyze when evaluating and choosing
players for a staff position. The points and requirements
mentioned above are only a guideline to selection. Even players
who are a perfect match for everything listed might not be
chosen, because, remember; the decision is always up to Orange.
Enjoy!

Your rules say that if you have been banned, you can't be staff.
Get rid of Viss, Ryton, ABC, Kirat and the many others that have
been banned then...
