    Hi,

    Title says it all. Are developer applications possible? I'm not immediately looking to create an application, although I would certainly consider it. However, thought I'd ask if it was at all possible. Primarily because I haven't seen our current ones do much. No disrespect intended. Just haven't seen them do anything. Might be my lack of observation.

    Kind regards,
    Sp00derman.

    imo no, though I believe you'd make a good one. I personally see Matt being involved most with what's happening in the server, and getting plugins installed, getting servers running, resetting stuff (OPFacs). Don't know where Tanner is at. Secrecy, I'm guessing. :>

    The developers are paid - I believe, so you'd have to probably send a job application :l

    Also, server-development isn't just about Java programming. I remember somewhere @Matt stating he did system-administration, this isn't exactly an easy task, and I think being a developer is a job that requires a higher level of professionalism other than applying on the forums, due to its complexity.

    No support. (If this is a suggestion).

    It's not a suggestion. More of a question.

    Yeah, last time I heard: developers send their resume in.

    Not sure where you heard that but it's not true at all.
    Also not true.

    Developers are trusted people who know how to do all that stuff basically. It's not really something people apply for.
    Matt & Tanner for instance are people Cyp and Crew trust. Past developers also were. Geeky (the person who created these forums) was technically a "developer" and is known to assist in a lot of stuff like that for Minecraft servers + trusted by owners.

    Anytime someone new was brought in to help with something technical, they have either been approached by the owners and asked for help, or what I said above.

    Alright. That answers my question. You may close this thread.

    Didn't think it was. @Zulfqar . :L.
    Yeah. I saw a post by Crew a while ago on the Spigot forums, asking for an experienced developer. I'm almost sure the developers are paid, might not be a salary, but more a per-project agreement. I also remember reading an application written by Tanner at another server where he stated he worked here on a per-project basis.
